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, large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to stiffen
and hold the engraved portions in place and
supply the necessary solidity and strength.
The surplus gold is actually needless so far
as utility and beauty are concerned. In
JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH
CASES, this waste of precious metal is over
come. and the SAME soLIpIrY 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: plate
of nickle composition metal, especially
adapted to the purpose has two plates of
SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The
three are then passed between polished steel
rollers, and the result is a strip of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases,
backs. centres. bezels, SC, are cut and
shaped by suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to ad-
nit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and
enamelling; the engraved cases have been
carried until worn perfectly smooth by time
and use without removing the gold.
THIS Is THE ONLY CASE MADE
WITH TWO PLATES OF SOLID GOLD
AND WARRANTED BY SPECIAL GER
TIFICATE.

vail in London now as on the occasion of the
great plague of 1865, not less than 600, 900
people would perish in the great metropolis
alone.
The people of to-day have less to fear from
these epidemics because they are better un-
derstood. From regarding them as vista
ton of an angry god it has come to be
understood that they are simply the punish
ment that nature inficts upon people
too lazy and too ignorant to keep
clean. From sacrificing children and
offering up prayers, the sanitary commits
sion takes the matter in hand, and proceeds
at once to clean up and to disinfect The
dead wall of superstition that stopped the
flow of common sense has been thrown
down, and the civilized world will never
again witness such slaughters as character
lied times past 1t has been said that clean
illness is next to godliness. 1t is proved that
cleanliness is essential to health. The cities
ter cared for than any ever known in the
East. Aside from the great cloac@ of
Rome, little or no attention was
given to artificial drainage, and, as a conse-
quence, the impurities of the great cities re-
NAMED within their bounds, to poison and
kill the people. But now, with a better
understanding of how to handle epidemics,
better sanitary measures, less superstition
and more common sense, these plaques can
never do the damage they once did though
it need not be denied that their advent-would
be a national calamity that should, if posi-
Die, be avoided.
