How Watch Cases are Made.

Most persons have an ambition to carry
a goldwatch case, and yet few people know
how a watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in thequalityof 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-
tions in place, and supply strength. The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira-
BILE, 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 49, ~ ,,-..
which saves the WASTE of need ] b
less gold, and INCREASES the soLIDTrY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

expire for which the Legislature in the
first place provided. If the Republicans
elect Mayor next June, of which there
is every possibility and probability, one
of the first duties of that Mayor will be
to appoint Water Commissioner TO sue
then expired. The Mayor elected at
that time may re-appoint Mr.. Gibbons
or he may not We are free to say that
as an efficient member of the Board of
Water Commissioners no better quail
fed man in every respect can be found
in the city. But it is just possible that
the continuing of so strong partisan
AS Mr. McIntire in the office he had
specially created for himself may make
may be possible that Republican
Mayor will find it necessary, in order TO
satisfy public opinion, TO declare him
self in favor of the removal of Mr.. Nc
Intire.
In order to accomplish that purpose
it may become necessary to appoint
some pronounced Republican TO sue
coed Mr.. Gibbons, unless Mr.. Gibbons
himself should declare himself favor
able to making the change. However,
\ it is said that neither the Commission
nor the Mayor will be troubled with
such a contingency as keeping Mr. Nc
Intire in the office he created for himself,
as the Legislature will be as ready next
year as it was last year to bow to the
| behests of Mr.. Mclntire.
There will be no difficulty whatever
in Engineering the service of the Chiei
Engineer to term of years, say five or
ten. and then he will be clear from al
intermeddling by Republican Mayors
or Republican officials of any kind.
