"WITH PLEASURE."

Under date Cooktowh, 15th August, 1887, Mr 11. FitzGerald, . Inspector of Police, writes:—"Re St. Jacobs oil. Having suffered extremely during the last twelve, months through an injury received in falling from my horse, it is with pleasure I testify to the extraordinary qualifications of Sb. Jacobs oil for alleviating pain."

Many, people have an idea thab the Waterbury, because a cheap watch, is therefore, cheaply made. A visit to the Company's factory, at Waterbury, Conn., would decidedly alter this impression. On seeing the extent and variety of the machinery used,; and the neatness, order, and_ organisation there exhibited, you begin to realise that making a cheap watch (and a good one) is not by any means the off-hand affair you had thought it was. As you pass through department after department, and observe the working of the wonderful automatic machines which make parts so fine you can scarcely see them, and yet so accurate that they can be taken at random and fitted together to form a perfect, watch; as you note the handling of the parts by dainty and skilful fingers, tho delicacy of the process, and the thoroughness arid care as to every detail, you find id difficult to imagine that they are not making bne-hundred dollar watches; and you then become convinced that the Waterbury is cheap— nob because poox-ly made, but because unique and simple in construction.
