all languages, and we have a propo-
sition to make to the readers of The
Independent. Briefly it is as follows:
We agree to give you watch with a
twenty-year Dueber gold filled case,
the movement to be either Elgin,
Waltham or Hampden, gents size,
for $3.50.
Identically and positively the same
watch in every respect as the watch
you pay $15 for. Ii we don't make
good every letter of every word, hang
onto your $3.50. We don't want it un-
less we can give you SIS watch for
it. That's our proposition; a straight
forward offer to save you $3.50 on a
watch. No lodging, no hedging, no
Wordy fireworks. Just a plain, bold,
calm, positive statement that we must
stand by or quit the business. What
are you going TO do about it? Going
to keep on making somebody a pres
ent Of $3.50? Write us about this,
or any other watch. We refer you to
the Independent If you are in doubt
about sending us your order. Fact of
the matter Is this, we can save you
at least 30 per cent on anything you
might need In The way of Jewelry.
Sent by express with privilege of ex-
animation, and IL IL Is not as repre-
sented, return at our expense. If IL
Is satisfactory, pay the agent $3.50.
