PROOFS OF TnEsUPERIOR QUALITY
OF THE
AMERICAN WATCH

WAlTHA6Mo GLASS;

WALUhAusds U51ASga
THE American warth Company, Of wslthsm,
i Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches
are cheaper, moro accurate. less complex, more
durable, better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept In order and repaired than any other
watches in the market. They are simpler In
structure, and therefore stronger, and less likely
TO be Injured than the majority of foreign
watches, which are composed Of from 1875 TO 800
pieces, while in an old English watch there are
more than 700 parts. How they run under the
hardestt trial watches can have, is shown by the
following letter: 4i t

Gentlemen: The watches manufactured by you
have been in use on this railre ad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches as part Of our equipment. There are
n ow some three hund OF them carried on our
line, and we consider them good and reliable
time keepcrs. Indeed, have great satiafaction
in saying your watches give us less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer witho ut re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware we formerly trust
cd to those Of English manufacture, of acknowl-
edged good reputation; but as class they never
kept time correctly, nor have they done as
good service, as yours.
In these statements am sustained by ma pro-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over series OF years.
Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
e General Superintendent.

All of these, with the exception of the Home

most approved principle, and to possess every ro-
quisite fer reliable time keeper. Every dealer
selling these Watches IL provided with the Com
pany's printed card of guarantee, which should
accompany each Watch sold, so that buyers may
