We mot only secure GREATNESS by our
system. but QUALITY. We do not pretend
that our Watch can be b ought for less money
than the foreign make elieves, bat that for its
zeal value it is sold for one half the price.
OUR SOLDIERS WATCH (nsmed VIM
Ellery,) is what its name indicates Solid,
Substantial, and always Reiable--wsusnted
to stand any amount Of Marching, Riding or
Fighting.
OUR NEXT HIGHER QUALITY oFwATCH
(uamed P. S. Barleu) is similar in size and gen
eral appearance, but has more jewels, and a
more elaborate finish.
OUR LADIES' WATCH, recently brought
out, is put up in great variety Of patterns,
many Of them of rare beauty and workmanship
is quite small but wa rrsnted to "keep ime."
OUR YOUNG GENTLEMAN'S WATCH
is neat, not large and just the thing FOR tn epoc

THF PROOF OF the m,rits Of our Watch may
be found In the fact that We now employ over
five hundred workmen in our factories. and
that we are still unable 10 supply the constant.

OUR THREE. QUARTER PLATE WATCH
