and the services of the watch-doctor are
desirable.
To obtain the best service from
watch it should be cleaned and oiled at
least once a year. The cleaning is
needed not so much because OF the
dust which has made its way into the
works, as because the oil thickens with
age, dries up, and the friction thus
caused cuts the bearings. Itwould be
useless to put fresh oil on timepiece
until the old, dry oil is removed.
If the watch should fall into water, or
if water should by any accident get into
the works, it should be sent to the jew
eler Immediately, as water will destroy
so fine a piece of material as a hair
spring in a very few hours. If the jew
eler cannot be reached Immediately the
case should be opened and the entire
watch dropped into kerosene, as this
will prevent rust until it can be placed
in the hands of the watch-doctor.
Briefly stated, the cleaning OF a watch
means that it is first taken apart and
each of its pieces washed in gasoline to
remove the old oil. The parts are next
washed in pure grain alcohol to get en-
tirely rid of the gasoline, any remnant
of which would destroy the fresh oil,
leaving the watch as before. From the
alcohol the parts are placed in fine box
wood sawdust mixed with chalk, from
which they are removed dry and shiny.
Next, each bearing and jewel is picked
out with fine pointed piece OF orange
wood and each pivot is cleaned with
pith. After this the parts are ready to
be put together and the timepiece adj
justed.
Thus cared for the average watch will
last a lifetime, and possibly be suffi-
GENTLY valuable to hand down to the
next generation as a treasured souvenir
