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 beside the question to the real value of these
time keepers

| The superior organization and great extent of
the Company's Works at Waltham, enables them

merely pay from % to 50 per cent. more for their
| watches than is necessary.
The time-peces combine every improvement that
long experience has proved of real practical use.

Story for d flee seekers.

In a New Jersey town n number of politi-
clans, all of whom were seeking office under
the government, we're seated under tavern
porch, when an old topper, named Joel D., a
person who was very loquacious when corn
ed, hut exactly opposife when sober, said he
would tell them story.
They told him to fire away, whereupon
he spoke as follows:
IA certain king-I don't recollect his
name-had philosopher upon whose judy
ment he always depended.
Now it happened that one DAY the king
took it into his head to go hunting, and dur
ing the necessary preparations, he summoned
the philosopher and asked him if it would
rain.
The philosopher told him that il would not
and they started. While iourneying along.
they met countryman mounted on o jack
ass.
lie advised them to return, "for," said be,
sit will certainly rain"
They smiled contemptuously upon him.
and passed on. Before they had gone many
miles, however, they had reason to regret
not having taken the rIstic's advice, "a a
shower coming up, drenched them to the
skin.
When they had returned to the palace, the
king reprimandea the philosopher severely.
II met a conntryman." said he, land he
knows n greet deal more than you. lie told
me that it would rain, whereas you told me
that it would not"
The King then discharged him, and sent
for the cGuntryman, who soon made his ap-
pearance.
TELL me" said the king, chow you knew
that it would rain"
Il didn't know." said the rustic, "my
iackass TOLD me So"
"And how, pray, did he tell" asked the
king.
BY pricking up his ears, your Majesty,
said the rustic.
1.-The king sent tie countryman away, and
procuring the iackass Of him. he placed the
animal in the office the philosopher filled.
And here" observed Joel, was where the
king made a great mistake.
''tlow so ~ inquired the auditors.
"Why ever since that time" said Joel.
