How Watches are Made.

1t will be apparent to any one, who
will examine SOLID GOLD WATCH that
aside from the necessary thickness for
engraving and polishing, the large proper
ton of thespreeieus metal used is needed
only to stiffen and hold the engraved
portions in place, aud supply the necessary
solidity and strength. The surplus gold is
actually needless, so far as UTILITY and
beautv are concerned. In il MES BOSS
PATENT STIFFENED GOLD WATCH
GASES. this WASTE OF precious metal Is
overcome, and the SAME soLIDITY AND
STRENGTH produced at from one-third to
one-half Of the usual cost of solid cases.
This process is of the most simple nature,
as follows:-A plate of composition metal
specially adapted to the purpose, has two
plates of SOLID GOLD soldered one on eact
side, The three are then passed between
polished steel rollers, and the result is {
strip of heavily plated composition, from
which the cases, backs, centres, bezels
| &C., are cut and shaped by suitable die
and formers. The gold in these cases
sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds Q
chasing. engraving and enameliing; an
engraved cases have been carried unit
worn perfectly smooth by time and us
without removing the gold. These case
are for sale by all jewellers, and are gual
anteed BY SPECIAL CERTIFICATE
| WEAR FOR 20 YEARS. If your jew
eer does not keep them, send to HAGsTo

"Communism."

The Communism that is being preach
ed to-day is the offspring of protection to
home industry, and il the child does not
know the father, the latter ought TO recog.
nize the child. The people are more Iogi.
cal and consistent than the politicians and
manufactures in this matter. Moreover;
they say to themselves, il it is the business
of the Government to encourage and
support manufactures by forcing every.
body to buy them at artificial prices. il
must be equally the duty of the Govern.

ZIONIST standpoint there is no possible

to home industry is right and just, il fol
