There seems to be pretty gen

eral opinion that tha winters in

this part ol the countv are growing eolder every year. It used to be the rarest thing for the thermometer to get below the zero point, but of late years that is considered a common occurrence. A farmer sells his hogs at

453.75 to 4.00 grofs, and not to

exceed ?5 00 a bunrtrert net. J.ne hogs are shipped to Cincinnati, and in two or three weeks they come back in the way of cured meats,nd if the same farmer wants to buy back the hams of his hogs, he must pay fourteen rents a pound.

s'nWino- the constant stooniner and

starting at each block, the grades in the road, and the heavy trains, the electric motor must be given

the credit of doing at least as good work as could be expected or obtained from any steam engine. During the seventeen or eighteen hours

of service, not a single minute 01 stoppage is made except to let oS j and take on passengers. This electric road has been in operation for several weeks without a hitch or breakage. The motor, which is about forty horse-power, works as perfectly uuder a heavy as under a

light loan, brom the permanency and the character of the work done by this electric railway, it will be seen ihat electrio railways on elevated as well as on ordinary roads must become facts in the immediate future. They are indeed now with ns, and there is is no more trouble to build 200 or 300 horse-power generators than to build machines of fifty horse-power. The public is losing its skepticism, and what was proclaimed as impossibility yesterday has become a fact to-day."

but you will have to woric to mane a living, and the simple, Btinny dime, and the healthful atmosphere

will not make the fiollurn jnigtes in your pocket or put butter 00 your bread. "A rolling stone gathers no moss" and the sooner you realize 1 his th hetter. The one nbieot for

you to look to is, to settle down and actually live. Elegant residences and" large business houses are not usually built or maintained by men who are constantly drifting from place to place.
