The Sulpho Saline Baths may be consd-
cred as one of the fixed institutions of Gin.
cinnati. 1t would be curious if in the pro-
pramme of the future the Western Athens,
being the manufacturing and the musical
center of the Union, should also become
the great Baden Baden of the Western Con-
tnent.
Messrs. J. Address a Co. appropriate one

housekeepers, and carries one OF the'most
complete stocks of wooden ware and sundry
utensils to be found in the city.
One of the busy hives of Cincinnati is the
establishment OF chas. M. Evans at 1862
West Fourth street, where he is recon-
structing the country by placing limbs on
those who in the army or BY accident have
lost them. From appearances and from
the records of his victories over all COM
petitors we judge his limbs are of supe-
rior order and as this is a government year.

manufacturer, and his terms are ''satisfac-
ton or no SALE" His Southern patronage

Evans.
Our we'll known electrician, Mr.. J. c.
Chambers, has lately taken out patent for
q new device for protecting buildings
against the dangers of electricity, that is
intended to take the place of the old fash
ioned lightning rod" The invention is
in the form of an ornamental iron grating
provided with p ints electrically insulated
both from the earth and from the building,
so as to prevent said points from affording
ing attraction to electricity and inviting a
str,ke of lightning as they do when con-
nected to the building in the ordinary way.
The device was submitted to the severest
tests by the Electrical Department at
Washington, and the result was perfectly
satisfactory. The invention is TO be brought
before the public by the Chambers
National Lightning Protection Company of
this city. Several of our most prominent
electricians have examined into the new
theory and are very enthusiastic in its fa-
vor. In appearance. the new device is GER
tainly great improvement over the old
style. 1t can be seen at the office Of the
Company, Allemania Building, corner OF
Central avenue and Fourth street.
