EfOU American Watches

The american Waltham Watch is made by
no such uncertain process-an1 by no such
incompetent workmen. All the Company's
operations. from the reception of the raw ma
terials to the completion of the Watch, are
carried on under one roof, and under one
skillful and competent direction. But
the. great distinguishing feature of their
Watches. is the fact that their several parts
are all made by the finest, the most perfect
aud delicate machinery ever brought to the
aid of human industry. Every one of the
more than a hundred parts of every watch. is
made by a machine-that infallibly repro
duces every succeeding part with the most
unvarying accuracy. 1t was only necessary
to make one perfect watch of any particular
style and then to adjust the hundred ma
chimes necessary to reproduce every part of
that watch, and it follows that every succeed
ing watch must be like il.

watches on their merits only. They claim

The Things A Woman Can't Do:

There are three things a woman can't
do. First, she can't sharpen a lead pen
Gil. Give her one and see. Mark how
jaggedly she hacks away every particle
Of wood from around the lead, leaving
an unsupported spike of the latter,
which breaks Immediately when used.
You can almost forgive the male crea-
ture his compassionate contempt as,
chucking her under the chin, he twitch-
es it from her awkward little paw, and
rounds and tapers it in the most rayish-
ing manner for durable use. | wish to
hear no more on that point, because
when | once make up my mind, "all
the kings men," can't change it.
We'll, then, secondly: \ woman can t
do up a bundle. She takes a whole
newspaper to wrap up paper of pins
and a coil Of rope to tie it, aud it will
come undone at that. When | 90 shop
ping, which is sometimes my hard lot to
do look on with the fascinating gaze
Of bird in the neighborhood of a mag
Detic serpent, to watch clerks do up
bundles. How the paper falls just into
the right crease; how deftly they turn
it over and tuck it under, and tie it up
and then throw it down upon the coun-
ter as if they had done the most COM
mon place thing in the world, instead
of deed which might-and faith does
task the ingenuity of "angels y 1t
is perfectly astonishing.
Thirdly may allude to the fact
that women cannot carry an umbrella,
or rather to very peculiar manner in
which they perform that duty; but l
won't. | scorn to turn traitor to a sex
who, whatever may be their faults are
always loyal to each other. So I shall
not say, as | might otherwise have said,
that when they unfurl the parachute
alluded to, they put it down over their
noses-take the middle of the sidewalk,
raking off mems hats and women's bon
nets as they go, and walking right into
the breakfast of some unfortunate wight,
with that disregard of the consequent
gasp which to be understood must be
felt, as the offender cocks up one cor
ner of the parachute and looks defanty
at the victim who has the affrontery to
come into the world and hazard the
whalebone and handle of her "umbrer-
i'll! No, | won't speak of anything
of the kind besides, has not celebra-
ted writer remarked that when "dear
woman is cross, it is only because she
is sick" Let us hope he is right. We
all know that it is not the cause OF
mans crossness. Give him his favorite
dish, and you may dine off him after
wards-if You want to II EXCHANGE.

LOVERS IN A CELLAR-The usually
quiet town of Burnside has been con-
siderably disturbed during the past few
days, owing to a little matter of love
and romance which not unfrequently
stirs up communities, when unwilling
parents seek to dictate terms to love-
smItten daughters Or attentive wooers
1t appears that in this rural retreat lives
Il lass of lair form and comely face,
whose charms have attracted the live
llest admiration of a young man living
in the city of New York. He has press
ed his suit with unrelenting persiotency,
and it was not strange that the object
OF his affections should at last relent
and speak the kind word he was dying
to hear. But the course of true love
never does run smooth, or words to that
effect, and that this courtship should be
no exception to the general rule, the
sold man" peked his nose into the
affairs of the unhappy couple, and thus
stirred up the disturbance aforesaid.
Precisely what the difficulty was, it
matters not. Certain 1t Is that the pa
rient talked loud and in manner which
didn't exactly please the young love
makers, whereupon, one fine day recent
ly, the daughter suddenly disappeared
and the New York lad was also among
the missing. This was conundrum
the old man could not answer, but he
wasn't inclined to give it up, and SO
aroused the neighborhood to his assist
aEce. Scouting parties were sent out,
and at last it was believed the hiding
place of the truant lovers had been dis
covered. 1t was confidently asserted
by one of the special police that he had
positive information they were domicil-
ed in the house of respectable citizen.
This led to visit by interested parties
to the house in question, but the in
mates sweepingly declared that they
had not seen the runaways. The story

He had TO money, and would therefore
be compelled TO again take M his quar-
tiers in the hotel kept by Mr.. Faris. on

WOrkmen have been engaged for some

which was held by ropes, LET down over
