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 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 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, &C., 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.

THAT SETTLES IT.
Brought into Competition with the World
the Rest Carries or the Honors.

At the great Centennial Exhibition of 1876, the
leading products of all the branches of the Worlds
industry were assembled at Philadelphia To carry
OF prize in the face of that emendous competition
was task of no ordinary difficulty. Inventions and
preparations for the alienation Of pain and the cure
of disease present in the greatest possible vare
ty representing the skin and the profoundest study
of the age and it may be of vita! importance to you
personally, to know that the highest and only medal
given to rubber Porous plasters was awarded to the
manufacturers of BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS
PLASTER, by the following jury:
DR.. WN. Roth, urgeon-General, Prussian Army.
j. Ii. THOMPSON, A. NJ, NJ. D., Washington, ID. c.
e. B. WHITE, NJ. D., New Orleans.
ERNEST FLEIsCH. NJ. D., Austria.
The decision was afterwards confirmed by the
medical jury at the last Paris Exposition. Knowing
the value of such high and unbiased testimony the
medical profession, both in the United States and in
Europe, quickly threw aside the old, slow-actng
pasters they had been using, and adopted Benson's
in their regular practice That physicians and sur
geons of the broaest regulations did this, distinctly
proves the intrinsic merit Of the article.
1t is no more than just to add that the average
physician of to day is not dominated by the preju'
dices which retarded the progress and modified the
successes OF his predecessors of not more than 20
years ago. He accepts hints from all quarters and
endorses and adopts demonstrated healing agents
wherever he finds them.
The right Of Benson's Calcine Porous Plaster to
stand at the head of all external applications what
soever for the mitigation cure of disease, is no
longer questioned
Let the purchaser however, be on his guard against
limitations. The genuine has the word CAP. me

Cyclone in Wisconsin

Racine, May 19.-The first cyclone in the history of this section struck Racine at ' o'clock last night, passing through the extreme northwest DOT tion of the city, demolishing one hun dred and fifty houses and barns and causing great loss of life and prop erty. The air was progressively warm. The cyclone was announced by the breaking of the clouds which took on a whirling motion and struck the earth with deep terrible roar. The path of the storm was a little over half mile long, and a quarter of 6 mile Wide. In this territory here and there building is left standing. All, brick and frame alike, collapsed and their sites are marked only by heaps of formless debris. Many occupants of houses escaped by seeking cellars and other places of comparative safety, but the cyclone came with such lightning quickncss that many were killed before reaching the eel lars. The cyclone as it moved from the city out upon Lake Michigan presented 6 spectacle such as is seen but once in life time.

There are no definite details, but it Is understood that number of per sons were killed and at least twenty wounded. Passing to the east, the storm struck BelvIdue, doing con- siderable damage here. The wind changed to the northeast and w1dened to mile. Lawrence, small station six miles north of Harvard, was badly damaged. The surround ing country is desolated. No more particulars have been obtained yet.
