How Watch Cases are Mdde.

This process Of manufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1856, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is he only scd:c1 case made
snder this process. For many years the in
PRODUCTION of these goods was slow, owing
to popular prejudice against "plated" goods.
but gradually the public learned that tho
James Boss Gold Wosch Casc was not q
cheap goldscashed or slectro-plased article,
but was made of genuine gold plates Of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence TO the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption Of every Improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss' Gold
Watch Case the STANDARD. ,-.or ~ x.sx
In this watch case the parts q .
most subject to wear-the boz, crorn, hinges,
iksxb- catches, ETC., are made of SOLID GOLD.

haven of rest he seeks. If he is met by
confusion, a delay at dinner, and at last
sits down to dinner hastily, carelessly
and badly prepared, the table slOvenly
arranged, half the things wanted not

servant from the room for this, that and
the other, he would need the temper Of
an angel to bear 1t all patiently. The
