No. 3O2.

The above cut conveys a good idea Of
one of the great GAR. Watches made
expressly for our subscribers. omany have
called for them that we have at last decided
to sell these elegant Watches at so low a
price that all veterans may enjoy the pos
session of handsome, durable, and accurate
Waltham and EIgin Watches. The GA r.
Watch is either a Waltham or an Elgin, as
the purchaser may choose. The works are
made from the finest selected material. Each
contains eleven valuable jewels, tempered
steel springs, compromising expansion ball
ance, patent safety pini0n, stem-winding
and pendant-setting apparatus, full plate, a
dust-band that excludes every particle of
dust, quick train, jeweled balance, selected
porcelain dial, and all the latest and greatest
improvements. The case is made Of nickel
silver, a composition just as handsome and
durable as coin silver. The case is dust
proof and need never be opened, because
the Watch winds by turning the crown
Tor stem and sets by pulling it out till it
clicks, then pressing it back into place after
setting, wonderful feature that makes this
Watch unique. On the back of this case
the GAR" badge, the emblem of glorious
service, patient suffering and triumphant
victory, is engraved by hand. AS the for
innate purchaser sees this beautiful reward
of patriotism thought will come to his
mind of the boys in blue who never saw
GAR" badge, but who gave up their lives
in battle. This watch is well worth double
what we ask for it, but we have placed the
price SO low that all may get it. We will
send it for q club of 10 subscribers and SIS
added money.
For sale, delivery guaranteed, for 1926

FANCY Dial WATCH.
The Wa1tham's --latest, Cheapest and
Host Desirable Novelty.
No. Sill. MEMS SIZE ONLY.

We propose TO herewith discontinue our
watch called Elgin's Pride" No. 102, and
10 substitute therefor watch made by the
Waltham Company, which we believe will
not be open to the objections which have
been made to the other fancy-dial watch so
extensively advertised and sold by u.s. The
hands upon the "Elgin's Pride" were i'm
ported, and great difficulty was found in
fitting them to do satisfactory work. In
our new watches these difficulties have been
ohyiated by the genius of American work
men. who In all cases of competition have
proved their superiority.
The difficulties we encountered in making
up the @Elgin's Pride" have thus been OBJ
waited by the new product of the American
Waltham Watch Company. The hands and
dial of the new watch are made by the
methods which have proved American me-
chanics famous in this as in all other
branches. In the watches we offer, the
movement, also, is made by the Waltham
Watch Company. This watch will be fur
nished in same fancy engraved case as
"Elgin's Pride" The works are jeweled in
ali important parts with precious stones, the
regulator is of an improved pattern; the
hair-spring is made under Logan's great
patents; the dial is handsome beyond our
powers of description, and altogether the
watch looks like 500 time-pece, from
which nobody but an expert can distinguish
it, and that only after most searching ex-
animation. The case is made of solid gold
in two thick plates, stiffened in between
with q sheet of very strong composition
metal The case guaranteed to wear like
solid gold for 10 years. In every way this
watch is bound to prove one of the most
magnificent and satisfactory articles we have
yet sent out.
This watch is the famous thin model, and
resembles the world-renowned Waltham
Riverside" in all important points. We
will sell this watch to subscribers only, de-
livery guaranteed and prepaid, as follows:
