WATCHES, JEWELRY, DC.
wv a l. T HAM WATT HE'S,

The extensive use OF these WATCHES for the
last fifteen years by railway conductors, engi.
ncers- and expressmen, the most exacting of
watch-wearers, has thoroughly demonstrated the
strength, steadiness durability, and accuracy, OF
. .. THE WALTHAM WATCH.
To satisfy that class In all these respects Is to
decide the question as to the real value of these
time keepers.
More Than $50 900 Of these WATCHES are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets of the
people, proof and a guarantee Of their superb
GRITTY over MI others.
The superior organization and great extent OF
the Company's Works at Waltham enable them to
produce watches at price which renders compe-
titlon futile, and those who buy any other watch
merely pay from twenty-five to fifty per cent. more
for their watches than is necessary.
We are now selling WALTHAM WATCHES at
less prices In greenbacks than the gold prices be-
fore the war. There Is no other manufacture OF
any kind In the United States of which this can be
said.
These time-pieCes combine every Improvement
that long G. experience has proved OF real practi.
cal use. Having had the refusal of nearly every
invention in matchmaking originating In this
country or in Europe, only those were finally
adopted which severe testing by the most skilful
the public, demonstrated be essential TO correct
aud cuduring timc-kceping. ..... ...... ..t
Among the many improvements we would par

The invention and use of 4 ccntrc-pinlon Of pc

Ing had the refusal of all other contrivanccs,
adopted Foggs Patent rinion as being the best
and faultless. ....... .... ~
Hardened and tempered hair-springs, now uni
vcrsally admitted by watchmskers to I've the best,
are used i'll all grades of Watham Watches.
All Waltlam Watches have dust-proof caps,
protecting the movement from dust and iessentng
the necessity OF the frequent cleaning necessary
In other watches. .... '-.' 'i ~
Our new patent M-WINDER, or KEY
LESS WATCH. is already decided success and
great Improvement on any steln-winding 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
watcbmakers do not abound, watches with the
aforementioned improvements, which tenditoin-
sure accuracy, cleanliness, durability, and con-
venience, must prove invaluable. ..n.i .
