There is a certain sense of! ux- urious ease prevalent on all sides, iudcating a thrift and prosperitp as attractive as it is unusufl.l in pli!!.ces of the size. It is said that in the days when. the hardy pioneers iirst entered the primeval forest, to hew the logs vlith which to build their first rude habitations. tb.e pine trees surmounted the l.:ll and gave the settlement its name, but today the pines have given way t() stately !n.la- ples wbo~e luxuriant loliage sprefol.ds its welconte shade over the home::. of the ;;enem.tions tbat have succeei!t:d. Tbe restdences are all pleasant, :nany of tht!m spftdous. Tbe grounds are well kept, and the gar- den plots. man1· of wbich can be seen from the stre(!tS, are riclr in vegetation and brilliant with Hoi'\Jer- ing plant~>. The surrolindings are so I.J.naint and hornelil;.e that the stranger can nut but be impressed with the good fortune of those ~ ho find homes in in so pleasant a vtl lage. Notwithstanding the gencoeral feeling of contentment, the spirit ot enterpnse prevails among the inhabi- tants, and the futtll'e outlook gives encouragement tu the belief that , the day is not far distant when Elba, with its prospective railroaa faci]ites will be a trhrivitlg village, rivaling in enterprise more pretentious place.:;, Business has already re- ceivtd a r<ew im petos and aU the merchau ts report a sa.tisiactory trade. THE LI'ITLE GI~\NT FORCE PmiL • Is a very handy article, which. is manufacttued in Elba by 1'. D. Brown. It is made of tin, and has a revolvirig nozzle, which is protect- ed by hard. metal, and the pu. atp havmg a clouble action~ the sleam thrown is a contmuous one. It sprinkles or throws a steady stJeam with equal facility. It ca.n be tllsed for fire p11:rposes as well as for the ordmary llSes of a force pump. In an Ohio town, where tlJe agent was stopping cme night, a fire brokeout, There was no apparatus in the town for subduing the !lames, and e:ach man was ~tiven one of these pu10ps, with th.e !\~.e ol which the fire was quenched. So well did the Little Gmnt work that the agenL's en tire stock WliS immediately taken. A number e>f men are employed in their manufacture, an<l the sa.les, which amounted to s,ooo, will this year be increased to ro.ooo. RAYMOND BROS.
