The same opposition met every new
venture. About fifty years ago an
Englishman tried to introduce watch
making among his countrywomen, a
delicate and profitable trade in which
hundreds of Swiss women were employ

was mobbed and broken up by British
prejudice, and, though three venture
some souls did try to follow his sug-
gestion and learn the trade, perseeu-
ton finally obliged them to give 1t UP.
Now there are over 1000 watch and
clock makers in the United States, and
