WALTHAM
WAT CRES.

The extensive of these watches for the last
fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and
Expressmen, the most exacting of watch.w earers,
has thoroughly demonstrated the strength, steadi-
ness durability and accuracy of the Waltham Watch
To satisfy that class in all these respects is to de-
eide the question to the real value of these time
keepers.
More than 100000 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets of the peo-
plea proof and guarantee of their superiority
over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of the
Company's Works at Waltham, enables them to pro.
duce watches at price which renders competition
futile, and those who buy any other watch merely
pay from rs to so per cent. more for their watches
than is necessary.
These time-pieces combine every Improvement
that long experience has proved of real practical
Having had the refusal of nearly every inyen-
ton in watch making originating in this country or
in Europe only those were finally adopted which
severe testing by the most sklful artisans in our
works, and long on the part of the public de-
monstrated to be essential to correct and enduring
time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would par
ticularize:
Inc Invention anu use Vi plnl0n of pecu-
lar construction, to prevent damage to the train
by the breakage of main springs, is original with
the American Watch Company, who, having had the
refusal of all other contrivances, adopted Fugss
patent pinion as being the best and fautless
Hardened and tempered han! spIings, now uniyer-
sally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best, are
used in all grades of Waltham Watches.
All Watham Watches have ust.proof caps pro
tecting the movement from dust ADD lessening the
necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in other
watches.
Our new patent stem winder, or keylcss watch is
already decided success, and great improv
on any stem winding watch in the American market
and by far the cheapest watch of its quality Of
fered to the public. TO those living in portions of
the United States where watchmakers do not abound
watches with the above mentioned improvements
which tend to ensure accuracy, cleanliness, durabil-
ity and convenience, must prove Invaluable

IL twelve times greater than that of the
New \ ork Central, and in case OF the
other roads ii was four times that OF the
Central.
To make as safe 4 calculation rs posi-
BILE, we can say that cars can be made for
the 3 feet gauge weighing three tons
which can carry six The total amount
of freight or paying weight carried on
the New York Central in 1868 was ,S46,-
900 tons; to carry this, assuming that the
cars run full both ways, an equal amount
of non-raying tons (the weight of the
cars) has to be drawn over the road. On
the narrow gauge road if the same
amount of freight was carried only $685.
600 tons Of non-paying load would have
to be drawn, q saving of $4,000 tons,
which the New York Central has to carry
at dead loss In fact the loss is twice
this, as the cars are not loaded for more
than one-half the distance. AS it costs
the road S1.5S to transport a ton, the
hauling of these non paying, 923, 900 tons,
costs the New York Central 81, 458, $40 II
year.
The decrease in strain on machinery
from having the points of support nearer
together is immense.
So far we have been considering freight
cars; the same reasoning applies to pas
senger cars, which weigh, on the Central,
about 10 tons each, and are made to car
~ SO passengers, although the average
number of each is about %. On the Nor
way feet road, the cars carry % passen-
gers and weigh tons, while on the 4
feet 10 inch gauge, in the same country,
the cars carry only the same number of
passengers and weigh6 tons. 2Spassengers
in a car weighing tons, would give 800
pounds of car for each passenger. Civ
ing 400 pounds of car weight to each pas
sengers, car could be built to carry on
the ) feet gauge 30 passengers, and be
but one-third Of the weight of the Central
cars. An Is ton car carrying so passen
gers, would give to each passenger 100
pounds of weight Of car; while in \ ton
car carrying 80 passengers the weight
per person would only be 400 pounds, a
saving of 800 pounds per man, which in a
car earring SO passengers would amount
to 10000 pounds, which are like, it has
been .ptly said, so many dead head pas
sengers that never get out
The engineer of the Ullinboard railway
in Sweden, found the cost of transferring
to be but two cents per ton, since the la
Dor was not great when cars were placed
along side of one another.
We read every day of some 5 feet gauge
being changed to feet l-2 inches and
perhaps as the world improves we shall
see railroad companies consulting their
interests and changing to a feet gauge.

That hang on Mcmory's wall.
H., one of Il dim old forest.
That >compth best of all;
Net for its gnarlrd oaks olrn,
Dark with the mistletoe;
Not for the violets golden
That sprinkle the vale below;
Not for the mlk-white lilies
That lean from the fragrant hedge,
toquctting all day with the sunbcams,
And stealing their golden edge;
Not for the vines ON the upland
Where the bright red berries rest;
Nor the pinks, nor the pale, sweet cowslil

I once had little brother
With eyes that We're dark and deep
In the lap of thai olden forest
He ieth in peace asleep;
Light as the down of the thistle,
Free rs the winds that blow.
We loNcd there the beautiful Summers.
The summers of long ago;
But his feet on the hills grew weary,
And one of the Autumn ewes
made for my little brother
a bed of the yellow leaves.
SweetIy his pale arm, folded
My neck in a meek embrace.
As the light of immortal beauty
Silently covered his face;
And when the arrows of sunset
Lodged in the trec-topS bright,
He fell in his Saint-like beauty.
Asleep by the gates Of light.
Therefore. of ali the pictures
That hang on Memory's wall.
The one of the dim OLD forest
