The Cincinnati Tribune describes q
movement now on foot in that city to
organize a joint stock company under
the laws of the state for the purpose of
purchasing suitable building sites and
erecting thereon dwelling houses of five
and six rooms each. The movement will
be for the betterment of the wage earn

them to secure homes under all easy in
stallment plan, avoiding the loss of fore
closure of the partly paid purchase mon
ey. Following is the proposed plan to be
adopted:
Rent or lease the houses to sober and
industrious tenants with a privilege Of
purchase, paying a stipulated rental per
month and an additional payment of So
or more per month toward the purchase
of the house. Should at any time a ten
ant become unable to continue his rent
or purchase money payment allow him $:
First.-To apply the purchase money
paid up to that time on future rent.
Second.-To transfer his interest to
any like tenant taking his place.
Third.-To withdraw said amount in
cash less a 5 per cent discount.
Fourth. case of death or sickness
return the full amount in cash.
Deposit all purchase money payments
in savings bank, to remain there until
the tenant has awaited himself of one of
the above conditions or received his deed
for his home.
Tenants need have no fear of any part
Of their purchase money in case Of dis.
ability OH their part to pay. On the con-
trary it is believed that every lease OF
the company will command a premium
within two years.

Think the fish may be able to control the
quantity of oxygen in it's bladder by its
own will. Blot, distinguished French
naturalist, thought he had solved the
problem by discovering that the proper
ton of oxygen was larger in fish that
lived at great depths and smaller in
those that lived near the surface of the
sea.
But quite recently new observation.
made from the Prince of Monaco's yacht,
Princess Alice, seem to prove that Blot
was mistaken and that the deep dwell
