where he was engaged in the Government

was granted diploma for practice. Re

esteemed by all. and more especially by
those who were schoolmates with him
His superior natural abilities won him
friends in whatever capacity he appeared
aud no task was so difficult, but that he
WAS able TO master with a little study. He
was about 81 years of age, and just In the
prime of manhood, looking forward tn 0
promising career OF success.

scales are stamped in the cap of the watch

that it is good, but that the character Of
the manufacturers is such that the quality
of the goods will bekept fully up TO standard.
