WALTHAM WATCHES.

WALTHAM WATCHES.

Es-The extensive use of these Watches for
the last ffteen years BY Railway Conductors,
Engineers and Expressmen, the most exact
ing Ofwaf cll -weaFers, has thoroughly demon
stTated 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
th+s etime-keepers.
More than - A5Sf0SS2 Of s.,1 thess Sc
the pockets of the people-a proof and
guarantee oftheir superiority over all others
The superior organization and great extent
Of the Company's Works at Waltham, enable
them TO produce watches at q price which
renders competition futile, and those who
buy any other watch, merely pay rom . to
SO per cent. more for their watches than is
necessary.
We are now selling Waltham Watches at
less prices in greenbacks than the gold prices
before the war. There is no other manufac-
ture fany kind in the United States of which
this can be said.
ment that a long experience has proved OF
real practical 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 skillful artisans in our
works and long use on the part OF the public,
demonstrated TO be essential to correct and
enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would
particulartze;
The invention and use of centre pinion of
peculiar construction, to prevent damage 10
the train by the breakage Of main springs, Is
original with the American Watch Com Dany,
who having had the refusal of all other con-
trivances, adopted FOgg's Patent pin1On as
being the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair springs, now
universally admitted by watchmakers 10 be
the best, are used in all grades Of Waltham
Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof
caps, protecting the movement from dust
and lesSeniug the necessity OF the frequent
cleaning necessary IN other watches.
Our, new patent stem-Wtnder, or Keyless
watch, is already decided success and q
great Improvement on any steIn-W1nd1ng
watch in the American market, and by far
the cheapest watch of its quality now offered
| 10 the public. To those living in portions Of
the United States where watchmakers do not
| abound, watches with the aforementioned
( improyements. which tend to tnsure accura-
ey, cleanliness, durability and convenience,
must prove Invaluable.
Every watch guaranteed by the Company.
To prevent imposition, buyers should see
/ that every watch should bear either of the

Commemoratlon paY IN Nashville.

NAsAvILLE, May l5.-At one O'Clock
to-day the citizens of Nashville and vicin-
ity commenced to move almost en- mdSSe
toward the cemetery in which so many
Confederate dead are buried. The streets
and pixies were crowded with people and
vehicles of every description. The cere-
mony of decoration was very solemn and
impressive. Many of the graves of dis
tiuguished officers and men were beauti-
fully dressed with flowers and evergreens,
around which the people congregated in
large numbers to admire and think of the
Valor and worth of the departed.

COUNTY FAIR POSTPONED.
To take place Friday and
Saturday, Oct. IA and 10.

Owing to the severe storm which pre-
vailed last week Friday and Saturday,
il was deemed advisable by the officers of
the Agr cultural Society to postpone the
County Fair one week. This was nc
cordingly done, ard the Fair will there
fore be held on Friday and Saturday Of
this week, Oct. IA aud Is.
1t is expected that the different towns
in Pierce county will be more fully rep
resented than Mt any previous Fair. Fast
stock from other sections, Minnesota and
elsewhere, will be in attendance, and the
exhibition in that line will undoubtedly
be full of interest.
1t is hoped that those of the citizens Of
Prescott having articles which may lend
interest to the Fair, will place the same
on exhibition. Such articles will be
carefully guarded and returned uninjured
by the officers of the Society. A little
interest taken in this matter by our citi
gems will add much to the attractiyeness
of the exhibition.
Let all who are friendly TO our agri
cultural interests contribute their mite,
and make the Tenth Annual Fair worthy
the 8. Banner County" of the state.
