i FLOATING LIVE The above picture represents an invention by onr fellow' townsman J. F. Hardman, the Jeweler. It is a very ingeniously arranged livebox for keeping fish alive in warm weather. We judge it to be a right good thing for the purpose and expect that Mr. Hardman will make millions of dollars and perhaps even a cool thousand out of if. A patent has been applied for and will, doubtless be granted, m due time. It will hold 50 pounds of fish and will keep them alive for*' days. The man in the middle of the boat, in the above picture looks greatly like Mr. Hardman, but we wish to say, at once, that the likeness is accidental, and that it is not meant for him. Joseph is by nq means fresh enough to see himself pulling hard at the oars of a boat, in a hot day, while another man sits at his ease in the stern. If any of our readers have u«e for any such article as the above, we advise them to call upon or address Mr. Hardman, at this place.
