BEST STRENGTHENING PLASTER IN

Allcock's Porous Plasters resolve and as
auage pain by calling forth the acrid humors
from parts internal to the skin and genera,
circulation-thus, in many cases, positively
evaporating the disease.
JAMES LULL, NJ. D.
There is nothing equal in the way of a
plaster, to the Porous Plaster of Mr.. ALcCCK.
Everything is pleasant about them. They are
the plaster of the day, and fit type of our
present advancement IN science and art. In
Asthma, Cough, Kidney Affections, GOut
Rheumatism. and local deep-scated pains,
they afford permanent relief.
J. F. JOHNSON, NJ. d.,
on " Topical Remedies. "
From personal knowledge of these plas-
tiers, we can state that they are decidedly pref
cradle to any other in use. Wherever relief
is to be obtained by the use of a plaster, we
should recommend them.

REDUCTION IN PRICE
OF THE
AMERICAN WATCHES

OF THE
AMERICAN WATCHES
MADE AT WALTHAM, MASS.
In consequence of the recent great improve
ments in our facilities for manufacturing, we
have reduced our prices to as low point as
they can be placed
with Gold at Par,
so that no one need hesitate to buy watch
now from the expectation that it will be
cheaper at some future time. The test of ten
years and the manufacture and sale of
More shan zoe, ECO watches,
have given our productions the very highest
rank among time keepers. Commencing
with the determination to make only thor
oughly excellent Watches our business has
steadily increased as the public became ac-
quainted with'their value, until for months
together, we have been unable to supply the
demand. VS. have repeatedly enlarged our
factory buildings until they now cover over
three acres of ground, and give accommoda-
tim to more than eight hundred workmen.
We are fully justified in saying that we
now make more than one-half of all the
Watches sold in the United States. The diff
ferent grades are distinguished by the follow
! ing trademarks on the plate;
l. American Watch Co., Waltham,
Mass.
;. Appleton, Tracy d Co." Waltham

/ 3. "P. S. Bartlett" Waltham, Mass.
L. "Wm. Ellery."
5, Our Ladies Watch of first quality is
named Appleton, Tracy, q Co"
! Waltham, Mass.
! 6 Our next quality of Ladies' Watch is
named "P s. Bartlett" Waltham, Mass
These watches are furnished in great varie-
/ ty of sizes and styles of cases.
I The American Watch Co. OF Waltham,
Mass, authorizes lis to state that without dis
tinction OF trademarks or price.

I TORY ARE FULLY WARRANTED

made in this or any other country. Buyers
should remember that unlike the guarantee
of foreign maker who can never be reach
ed, this guarantee is good at ali times against
the Company or their agents, and that if af-
ter the most thorough trial, any watch should
prove defective in any particular, it may be
always exchanged for another. As the
American Watches made at w latham, are for
sale by dealers generally throughout the coun-
| try, we do not solicit orders for sing {
Watches
CAUuoy.-The public are cautioned to buy
only of respectable dealers. All persons sell
ing counterfeits will be prosecuted.

To Teachers and School

Notice is hereby given that meetings will

sing of teachers for the common schools OF

O'Clock A. N.
To the teachers Of the county l would say
that it is very desirable that you should attend
one of these examinations.
They will be held so late that it will be quite
inconvenient for me to grant private ones
and perhaps more 50 for those who do not at
tend one of these examinations. When good
reasons are given private examinations viii
always be granted.
Assistance will be given at any time to
School Officers in obtaining good and compe-
tent teachers, for they are the only ones that
of literary lectures, interspersed with other
appropriate exercises. may be expected at the
Examinations.

our respectable citizens to reflect upon. They
absent themselves from the polls in our char

honest judge upon the bench plainly tells the
Grand Jury that II Is useless 70 indict the rob-
