REASON WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
April %, 1867.
Made at IEALTH4lf, MASSA CHUSETT

Made at WALTR1M, M1SSA CHUSETTS,
is THE BEST.
1t is made the best principle. It's frame is
composed of SOLID PLATES. No jar can in
terfere with the harmony of its working and no
sudden shock can damage its machinery Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Gtsclf
famous for its novelty we'll for its effective
ness) and is therefore properly made. The watch
is what all mechanism should be-ACCURATE,
SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Ex-
cept some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches are chiefly made by women and
boys. Such watches are composed of several
hundred pieces, screwed and rveted together,
and require constant repairs to keep them in any
kind of order All persons who have carried
'ancresn "lepines'' and "English Patent Le-
vers,'' arc perfectly well aware of the truth of
this statement.
At the beginning of our enterprise more than
ten years ago, it was our first object to make
thoroughly good low priced watch for the mill
ion, to take the place of these foreign mposi-
tons the refuse of foreign factories, which were
entirely unsaeable at home and perfectly worth
less elsewhere.
How well we have accomplished this, may be
understood from the fact that many years of
public trial, we now make MORE THAN HALF
OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE
UNITED STATES, and that no others have ever
given such universal satisfaction. While this de-
partmcnt of our business is continued with in
creased facilities for perfect work, at pre-
sent engaged in the manufacture of watches OF
the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO
CHRONOMETRY, unequalled by anything hith-
erto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by any
thing made in the world. For this purpose we
have the amplest facilities. We have erected an
addition to our main building expressly for this
branch of our business and have filled it with the
best workmen in our service. New machines
and appliances have been constructed which per-
form their work with consummate delicacy and
exactness. The choicest and most approved ma
terialS only used, and we challange compari
son betweeI. this grade of work and the finest
imported chronometers. We do not pretend to
sell our watches for LESS MONEY than foreign
watches, but we do assert without fear of contra
dicton that for the SAME MONEY our product is
incomparably superior All our watches of what
ever grade, are fully warranted, and this warran-
tee is good at all times against us or our agents
in all parts of the world.
CAUTION The public are cautioned to buy
only of responsible dealers. All persons selling
counterieits will be prosecuted.

True CoURAGE,-Courage is inccmpati
bic with the fear of death; but every
villain fears death; therefore no VILLAIN
can be brave. He may indeed possess the
courage of a rat, and fight with despcra-
tion when driven into corner. If by
craft and crime a successful adventlirer,
he should be enabled to usurp Kingdom
ard command its legions. There may be
moments when; like Richard on the field
of Bosworth, or Napoleon on the plains Of
Marengo, all must he stakcd; an awful
crisis is when, if his throne be overturned,
his scatfold must rise upor its ruins. Then
indeed, though the cloud of battle should
lower on his hopes, while its iron hail is
rattling arouiid him; the greatest coward
will hardly fly to insure that death which
he can only escape by facing. Yet the
glare of acourage thus elected by danger,
where fear Conquers fear, is not to be COM
pared to that calm sunshine which con-
stantly cheers and iIlulninates the breast
of him who builds his confidence on vr-
tuous priiiciplcs; it is rather tie transient
and cvanescent lightning of the storm,
which derives half its lustre from the dark
ness that surrounds it.-Lacon.
