WALTHAM
Watches !

sB-The extensive use OF these Watches for
the last fifteen years by Railway Conductors,
Engineers and EXprerSmen, the most exact
ing OF wafC h-wearers, has thoroughly demons
strated the strength, steadiness, durability
and accuracy OF the Waltham Watch. To
satisfy that class IN all these respects IS 70
decide the question as to the real value Of
| these time-keepers.
More than 4So, 900 Of these
Watches are now speaking for themselves IN
the pockets of the peopl6-a proof and
guarantee Oftheir superiority over alt others.
The superior organization and great extent
! OF the COmpanys Works at Waltham, enable
! them TO produce watches at price which
renders competition futile, and those who
buy any Otner watch, merely pay nom = 10
| 50 percent. more for their watches than is
We are now selling Waltham Watches at
less prices in greenbaeks than the gold prices
before the war. There is no other manufac-
ture ofany kind in the United States Of which
| this can be said.
| These tinle-pieces combine every improve
ment that long experience has proved of
real practical use. Having had the refusal
of nearly every invention In Matchmaking
originating in this country OF in Europe,
/ only those were finally GdOptedh wich severe
testing by the most Sk1iltuI artisans IN our
works and long use on the part OF the public,

Among the many Improvements we would
The invention and use of a scentre-pinion of
/ peculiar construction, to prevent damage 10
the train by the breakage of main springs, is
original with the American Watch Company,
who, having had the refusal of all other con-
trivances, adopted Fogg's Patent pinion as
being the best and faaltless.
Hardened and tempered hair springs, now
universally admitted by watchmakers to be
the best, are used in all grades 0l Waltham
Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof
caps, protecting the movement from dust
and lesSening the necessity of the frequent
cleaning necessary in other watches.
Our new patent stem-winder, or keyleSs
watch, Is already q decided success and a
great improvement on any stem win ding
watch IN the American market, and by far
the cheapest watch of its quality now offered
to the public. To those living in portions of
the United States where watchmakers do not
abound, watches with the aforementioned
Improvements, which tend to insure accura-
cy, cleanliness, durability and convenience,
must prove Invaluable.
