IRONTON.
The city of Ironton is built above the highest floods, at the foot of lofty hills, in the center of the Hanging Rock celebrated iron region. It is thie county seat of Lawrence county, Ohio, and is located on the Ohio river, one hundred and forty-two miles above Cincinnati, and one hundred miles south-east of Columbus. The population in 1879 is about 9,000. Its iron trade amounts to about eight million dollars a year, and is rapidly increasing.
The Iron railroad, with its branches, twenty-one miles long, connects the different mines. Ironton is lighted with gas, supplied with water by the Holly system, and contains six blast furnaces, three rolling mills, a nail factory, a number of machine shops, a stove and hollow-ware foundry, two boiler works, a hoe factory, two saw and planing mills, a boat-building establishment, a tanuery, two breweries, two National banks, several good hotels, a high-school and several graded public schools, a tri-weekly, a semi-weekly,
and three weekly ( onc German ) newspapers, and fifteen churches.
Ironton was laid out in 1848, by the Ohio Iron and Coal Company, and was incorporated as a city in 1865. The first iron smelted in the region was at a cupola built in 1815 by Richard Deering.
The Hecla Furnace is situated three miles out from Ironton, and has a territory of about 14,000 acres well supplied with timber, coal, and iron ores. The pro- duction of this furnace is used principally in the manufacture of car wheels. It produces only 10 tons per day of cold blast charcoal pig iron, using over 200 bushels of charcoal, 3} tons of gray and red limestone ore to the ton. The price of this brand has always been from five to ten dollars above that of other Hanging Rock cold blast irons. The furnace has been operated about fifty years.
The trade of Ironton promises in the near future to become of greater importance than it has ever been before.

-IMPORTERS OF-
FANCY GOODS AND TOYS,
137 WEST FOURTH STREET.
CINCINNATI, O.
The above establishment, the finest in Cincinnati, devoted to the sale of Fancy Goods and Toys, is situated in the very center of the best busi- ness block on Fourth street, the prin- cipal thoroughfare of the city. It has a frontage of 30 feet, and a depth of 125 fcet, and is, including the base- ment, seven stories in height. The building is 110 feet above the side- walk, and has a commanding and substantial appearance. Every floor is connected by large hydraulic elc- vators. The ground floor is the retail room, and all of the other floors are exclusively devoted to wholesale. An independent and separate entrance leads to the wholesale department on Fourth street.
This house was founded in the ycar 1837, by Charles and Henry Storch, who were the first import- ers of fancy goods and toys established west of the Alleghany mountains. In 1850, Hermann Schrader purchased the business of Mr. Storch, and continued it under the name of H. Schrader & Co. On January 1, 1874, Julius and Herman Knost, who had been part- ners in the business of the last-named firm since 1865 and 1868, respectively, took entire charge of the busi- ness, Mr. Schrader having retired. Since that time, the volume of trade done by the house has each year increased to such an extent that even now, with the great space at their command, every foot of the differ- ent floors is occupied. A large sub-cellar, the entire length of the building, is used for the reception of heavy goods, and for packing purposes. The first floor, or retail room, is more like a muscum than a store, containing, as it does, thousands of different articles of ornament and use, gathered together from London, Paris, Vienna, Nurnberg, and all the great manufacturing centres of Europe, besides notions from many of the extensive American manufacturers.
The second floor contains the offices and full lines of staple goods, such as brushes of all kinds, druggists' sundrics, pocket-books, portemonnaies and purscs,
French harps ; toilet soaps, balls of all kinds ( foot, base, parlor, rub- ber, etc.), perfumes, besides a variety of general toilet goods ; combs in rubber, celluloid, horn (dressing, dust, pocket, etc.) ; mirrors in endless vari- ety ; violin and guitar strings and trimmings; memorandum, autograph and scrap books; photo-albums, cigar cases, cigar and cigarette holders, in wood and mccrshaum; pipes, import- ed and domestic, in wood and china ; tobacco pouches, boxes and match safes ; fishing hooks, reels, lines and rods of all grades ; knives, razors and scissors ; paper, envelopes, and a full assortment of stationary goods.
The third floor contains an enormous supply of China goods, such as cups and saucers, mugs, vases, etc. Babics' tca sets, iron and metal toys, savings banks, wood A B C blocks, picture blocks, kindergar- ten blocks, toy books, toy watches, toy knives and forks, German accordions, and an extensive glass goods department.
The fourth floor contains trumpets of all kinds, toy guns, swords, soldiers' encampments, nine pins, and about one million dolls of all shapes and sizes.
The fifth floor contains myriads of tin toys, violins, guitars, glass toilet scts, vases, flower sets- a very heavy stock. Silvered glass vases-a specialty -are also on this floor in great abundance ; besides wax dolls, from the smallest to the largest, and of all qualities ; doll bodies, archery goods, school bags, and splendid lines of walking canes, besides a great assortment of stone and clay pipes.
The sixth floor contains innumerable wood toys, such as wagons, carts, velocipedcs, wheelbarrows, drums, children's and doll's carriages and toy furni- turc. An interesting hour may be spent by even a casual visitor in inspecting the great variety and in- finite wonders of such a fancy goods house and toy establishment as Knost Brothers & Co., No. 137 West Fourth strect.

McILVAIN & SPIEGEL.
The boiler works of the above-named firm are lo- cated on Lawrence street, between Front and Pearl streets, and were established in 1855. By the exercise of great care and diligence in the manufacture of boil- ers, and by using only the best materials and fine workmanship, this firm has built for itself an enviable reputation, one that is known in this and neighbor- ing cities, and more especially on the Ohio and Mis- sissippi rivers.
The boiler yard, work-shops, forges, offices, etc., occupy about half a square, and cover about 20,000 square feet. The shops are covered with a fine truss roof, and all of the modern appliances are provided for performing the various kinds of work required in an extensive establishment. Both members of the firm are practical working men, and can always be found at work in the shops, superintending every de- partment of the work. The firm manufactures loco- motive fire boxes, tubular and all styles of boilers, be- sides tanks, kettles, air vessels, etc. For a number of years the firm have done nearly all of the work of this class for the city water works, and they have built many large boilers for the city, several of them being of steel, and all of which gave general satisfaction.
Nothing is of more importance to manufacturers and others using steam, than a good boiler. Many people who buy boilers are not judges of their merits, and it often becomes necessary in such cases to rely upon the reputation of the makers for the integrity of the product.
As far as a reputation for excellent workmanship is concerned, Messrs. McIlvain & Spiegel have no peers in the boiler-making business in Cincinnati. The best material (iron or steel), that can possibly be pro- cured, is only used, and all work is guaranteed. Par- ties needing boilers, tanks, or any article in their line, may rely on substantial work that will do good ser- vice. The firm employs from forty to fifty men ordi- narily. They receive many orders from the South, furnishing heavy outfits every ycar for sugar planta- tions, etc. All manner of repairing jobs are promptly attended to. They generally have on hand an assort- ment of second-hand boilers. The firm has repeatedly been awarded the highest premium for excellence of workmanship, etc., over all competitors, by the Cincin- nati Industrial Exposition.
The members of the firm are Thomas McIlvain and William Spiegel.
