How Watch Gases ere Mqde.

Most persons have an ambition to carry
q goldwatch case, and yet few people know
how watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in the quality of them. Ina SOLID
GOLD WATCH CASE, aside from the neces-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing,
a large proportion of the metal is needed
only to stifen and hold the engraved por-
tons in place, and supply strength. The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira-
bic, because gold is a soft metal and cannot
furnish the stiffness, strength and elasticity
necessary to make the case permanently
strong and close-ftting. The perfect watch
case must combine gold with some metal
that will supply that in which the gold is
deficient. This has been accomplished by
the james Boss Gold Watch Case ~ v,,,.
which saves the WASTE of need q a
less gold, and INCREASES the soLIDITY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

He was from Dodge City, Kansas. He
arrived at the Stewart House one night
last week, accompanied by a young
lady whom he represented as his sis
ter, and requested two rooms adjoin-
ing. The young lady intimated that
this was not desired on her part, and
her wishes were needed. The stranger
from Kansas was evidently taken
aback at this proceeding, but swal-
lowed his discontinue and retired
with seeming good grace. Next morn
ing, previous to continuing his jour
ney, he was charged for his sisters (?)
accommodation, when he Indignantly
denied the relationship and asserted
that he knew nothing whatever of
her. He forgot that he had registered
her as his sister the night previous,
and when this fact was pointed out to
him, and he further informed that he
would be compelled to pay, he blus-
tered and threatened, declared he was
a =. =. ... from Kansas, and knew
his business and would stay, weeks
if necessary, and test the matter. The
clerk here informed him that he might
find out his real name if he adopted
such a course, adding that he already
knew who the young lady was, and
that she also would be detained. This
was more than the stranger bargained
for, so he paid the just demand, and
took his departure amid the "yah
yah's" and "sold " of the boys. A
more crestfallen looking man is sell
dom seen. 1t appears that he made
the young lady's acquaintance on the
Sherbrooke train. and endeavored to
plan liason with her, and she being
French and unable to understand
English, and he unable to speak or
understand the French language had
regarded the matter as settled, but
was rudely awakened when he diseov
cred that the conductor Of the train
had informed the clerk at the hotel
what the mans intentions were, and
that the clerk had procured the ser
vices Of an interpreter to assist the
young lady. His true relationship,

Camp Stevens item: Last week Mr..
Henry Stevens came very near losing
a pair of horses; he drives four, the
leading pair without reins. AS he was
going into the woods for load he
heard a noise resem bling a falling tree
in front of him. He tried to back his
horses, pulling SO hard as to break his
reins. The tree fell and the horses by
turning their heads q little gave room
for it to drop directly in front of them.
If they had not moved they must have
been crushed. Pale faces and tremb.
ling limbs were visible there Just then,

Does advertising pay? We should
say it did. Since we began advertis-
ing in the HERALD and by other
means, our trade has doubled. Dur
ing the year of 1888 our sales were
over $50, 1000. When any non-ad-
vertiscr in town can show us like
large trade we viii give it up. But
does it pay ?-Well, we don't do
business for fun. Quick and large
sales with small profits is, we have
found by experience, the best and
most satisfactory way of doing bus
ness. Below we continue our re-
markedly low price list, but remem-
Der that these are only few of the
bargains to be Lad at our store.

Conspicuous among the early SET

the Sheffield bank in the capacity OF
assistant book-keeper at the age Of
seventeen / have ia my possession

1t is of red MOROCCO, old fashioned, Of
course. Inside is written in his own
elegant hand. "Azarias Williams,
Sheffield, Old Bank, 1882" / have
also a. mahogany ruler which was
used by him in the bank, ruled paper
being unknown atthat period. Young
Williams was q hne penman and
correct accountant, adding two and
three columns of figures as correctly
and rapidly as an ordinary business
man could one. He came to the
United States in 1885, landing in New
York City. On the seth of December,
1888 he married Miss Sarah Furman
Warner, the only daughter Of the late
Hon. Geo. Warner, then wealthy
merchant of that city. They were
married by the Right Rev. Bishop
Provost, in the presence of Al guests,
and five slaves the property of Judge
Williams. He came to Concord in
the spring of 1895. He first settled
near the Connecticut river, upon the
farm now owned by Albee Caswell,
ESQ, where he kept small stock of
goods and manufactured pearl ash.
He was the first postmaster in Concord,
receiving his appointment from Post
master Gen. Gideon Grange, Dec
1901. In 1902 he closed his business
on the river, and removed to his late
residence which is about three-fourths
of mile from Concord corner, where
for more than three years he lived in
very small log house. In 1905 he erect
ed a fine mansion, in which he lived
until Dec. 1926, when it was destroyed
by fire, together with considerable
valuable furniture and household
goods. After the destruction of their
elegant home, Mrs. Williams spent
most of her time in the city of New
York, occupying the former home of
her parents, which was left her by her
father who died in Jan. 1926, Her
house was No. 374 Bowery, was finely
located with large flower garden in
front, and at that day was considered
an uptown residence. Since Mrs.
Williams death it has been converted
into stores. Mrs. Williams died Sept
5, 1916, aged rs years. Her remains
rest in st. Pauls church yard, so near
the street that the inscription upon
her tombstone may be easily read by
one standing upon the sidewalk
