WALTHAM
WAT CHES !
To Buyers of Watches Everywhere.

The greater part Of the jewellers Of tho United
States keep WoItham Watches, and cordially re-
! commend them 10 their customers, uotWithstand'
ing the fact that less profit is made on these
watches than on any others generally sold by the
trade Tho reason Of this is, that the reputs-
tiou Of the WAlthsm Watch rondors it an easy
sale, and the result is that, although the dealer
docs not make as much money on each indiyi-
dual watch as he may on the sale Of other watch
es he is still the gamer through larger and live
ler sales There are some however, among the
trade, who DO NOT giyo the Wathsm Watch that
hearty support which Il deserves. This portion
portion Of tho trade fancy there is more money
te be made By dealing IN watches about which
the public are ignorant, and in which there Is
less competition, and are content to mako an
occasional sale Of such watches al large profit.
Il il this class OF dealers who, when asked about
Waltham Watches, use that kind Of language
which leafs tho customer finally tobuy just such
a watch asis the most profitable for the dealer
to sell
iorthe information Of persons aboutto buy
watch aud who may DO unfsvorably affected by
the representation, Of those unfricndi5 to our
va 'ohes. We oall attention to the following sag-
gestious:
Since the manufacture Of watches was initH'
ted at walthan, the company have and sold
about 4OO, 900 wAtelfss. In every town and
village of the country some we1rer Of u Wal
| than Watch may be found. Let tho party about
| to buy ask this owner Of an American Watch
this question:
HAS YOUR WATCH GIVEN YOU salts,
FACTION
We arc not afraid to ask those Wishing to buy
a watch to guido themselves by the owner Be
ing satisfied as to the quality Of the watch, the
| buyer has now only to satisfy himself that the
Waltham Watches are THE CHEAPEST as
we'll as the best On this head We have few
words to say:
Itisawell known fact In manufacturing, that
! the greater the number Of articles manufactured
| by one establishment, the smaller will be the
! cost Of each individual artiolo. Keeping this in
view, our policy has always been to sell our pro-
ducts at the lowest possible price in order to Sc
euro large sales, and thus enable usto manufac.
| turo watches at q minimum cost. WE BELIEVE
| IN SMALL PROFITS AND A LARGE BUSI-
NESS. This policy we have successfully oar
ried out and the result is, that to-day we manu-
faoture twice as many watches rs all the other
factories in the United STATES put together.
We can therefore, afford to sell Cheaper than
they do, and actually do sell Twenty y-hve per
cent. Cheaper than they do, quality for quail
