How Watch Cases are Made.

Most persons have an ambition to carry
a gold watch case, and yet few people know
how a watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in the equality of them. InasoL1D
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-
tions in place, and supply strength. The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira-
BILE, because gold is 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 .nr y MARX
which saves the WASTE of need 8 q
less gold, and INCREASES the soL1DITY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

Chicago Herald: One Of the slickes.
things | saw in my travels vas a COWBOY
stopping a cattle stampede. A herd OF
about six OF eight hundred had got
frightened at something, and broke
away pell-mell with their tails in the
air, and the bulls at the head Of the pro-
cession. But Mr.. Cowboy didn't get ex-
cited ut all when he saw the herd was
going straight for a high bluff, where
they would certainly tumble down into
the canon and be killed. You know
that when a herd like that gets tot7oing
they can't stop, no matter whether they
rush to death or not. Those in the rear
crowd those ahead and away they go.
/ wouldn't have given a dollar a head
for that herd, but the cowboy spurred
up his mustang, made a little detour,
anne in right i'm front of the herd cut
across their path at a right angle and
then galloped leisurely on to the edge Of
thar bluff halted and looked around at
that wild mass of beef coming right to-
ward him. He was as cool as a cucum
Der, though ! expected to see him kill
ell, and was so excited could not speak.
Well, sir, when the leaders had got
within about a quarter of a mile of him
! saw them try to slack up, though they
could MOI do it very quick. But the
whole herd seemed to want to stop, and
when the COWS and steers in the rear
got about where the cowboy had cut
across their path / was surprised to see
them stop and IN to nibble the
grass. Then the whole herd stopped,
wheeled, struggled back, and went to
Sighting for a chance to eat where the
rear guard was.
You see, that cowboy had opened q
big bag Of salt he had brought out from
the ranch to give the cattle, galloped
scross the herds course and emp.ied
the bag. Every critter shifted that line
ofsalt. and Of course, that byokeup the
stampede. But ! tell sou Il wax a queer
