HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

In SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, n large proportion of metal is
needed only to stifien and hold the engray-
cd portions in place, and supply strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless. In
James Boss Patent Gold Watch Gases this
WASTE is saved, and soLIDITY and
STRENGTH increased by simple process,
at one-half the cost. A plate of SOLID
GOLD is soldercd on each side Of plate
of hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this tic cases, backs,
ccntcrs, bezels, etc, are cut and shaped by
dies and formers. The gold is thick
enough to admit Of all kinds Of chasing,
engraving and engine turning. These
cases have been worn perfectly smooth by
use without removing the gold. This is
t1e only ocge ncde rnier tbs process. Each

on the street and enquired the way to the

The social held last week al DR.. Failings,

Mirth and iollity ruled the occasion, and all
was pleasant and agreeable.
Among the many sewing machines now In
use the Singer seems TO take the cake. Mr..
Irwin Clark invested in one but it has not

got the improved patent, which occasionally
sincs in the choir.
Henry Root has returned from a three
months sojourn in Dakota where he went
for the purpose of working at his trade as a
carpenter. He seems to be rather guarded
in his report of that country, although he
found work plenty.
We notice that Myers gives heavy toot
on his horn in the Xcrdld. Myers believes
in going into the country and gathering up
the butter and eggs, thereby saving poor, old
ladies from bringing them TO the city in
baskets through the hot sun. We consider
him a benefactor TO his kind.
Prof. Hipp closed his school here last
Friday. He was the recipient of a silver pie

the trustees can prevail on him to stay
another year, but we think he wishes to test
his abilities in higher school.
Notwithstanding the rain, Memorial day
was observed with a large attendance.
The storm kept good many from going to
the graves, but the post turned out to the
number of 33, and decorated half that num-
Der OF graves. Returning to Good Templars'
and Clements hall, dinner was served by the
ladies. after which speeches and music were
in order We cannot too highly commend
the working qualities of Commander Geo.
Myers. Mr.. Dimock gave MS few blasts
on his little bugle just to put Us in mind of
old times. Our marching would undoubted-

pleasant and we had not been disappointed
in getting our music. The Post tender their
thanks to all those who furnished flowers SC
lavishly, and especial thanks are due Mrs
Away and Miss Rose Palmer for their beau
tiful button hole bouquets. May their path

The case OF Mrs. Edward Myers, OF Ron

proprietor OF the "FAvorte Remedy" for
help.
He At once informed her that it was impos-
sble to save the bandit must be amputated.
She received this terrible intelligence quietly,
declined to take ether, stipulating merely to
hold her husbands hand during the operation,
and underwent the painful process without
moving a muscle or uttering groan. DR..
Kennedy then gave "Favorite Remedy" freely
to cleanse the blood and prevent the return of
the disease, and Mrs. Myers now lives and re-
ioices in her neat deliverance.
