How Watch Gases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar inn
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softened the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape The advantages are readily appar-
emit for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering sofensit.
To test the superiority of the keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of OF. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give, while case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
obreak the crystal. The Keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

Our community was greatly shocked
last Saturday morning by the intelli-
gence, from North Stratford, N. H.,
that Fred, Oldest son of Mr.. end Mrs.
M. IL. Davis, had, that morning, met
his death by drowning. 1t appears
that while bathing in the Connecticut
river he was irresistibly drawn into u
dangerous current, all efforts by his
companions to rescue him proving
futile. The body was soon after re-
covered and brought home for inter
ment. The funeral services were held
last Sunday, and were attended by a
large concourse of sympathizing
friends. Fred was good boy, always
attentive to his business, and O. great
help and comfort to his parents upon
whom the blow comes with crushing
force and who have the heartfelt SYM
pathy of all in their great affection.
1t is reported that no less than four
lives have been lost in the same dan
gerous spot. Just before entering the
water Fred remarked to his compan-
ions, If / get drowned, look after my
keys, wallet and money" Alas he
little thought how soon his request
would have to be complied with. In
all events Providence has concealed
deep lessons. In wandering amid the
mysteries of this event let us seek to
learn what 1t teaches.
