IN SHAKESPEARE'S BAY. — '» ' ■—-—' When Shakespeare wrote, "Let every man be master of his own time," , watches were only intended for the nobility; bub, in these days, thanks to American ingenuity and perfect machinery, a etrong, accurate, and reliable watch, in the shape of the Wacerbury, has been produced at low cost, which every employer and employee who understands the importance of having good time, and the pleasure and convenience of possessing a correct and trustworthy timepiece can afford to purchase. The testimony in favour of the Waterbury is overwhelming, and, like Tennyson's brook, is ceaseless, whilst its reputation is unrivalled by any other watch in the world. Mr It. G. Spear, 97, King-street, Newtown, 11th June, 1889, writes:—" Having had in my possession one of your watches for two years I have much pleasure in stating that it has given me every satisfaction, and would recommend anyone that required a reliable timekeeper to purchase one." Mr John Robertson, of Mmmi, near Walleend, writes:—"l have pleasure in stating: that the Waterbury Watch Company has given me every satisfaction with their watch, which I have had for a con> siderable time and found it to be a splendid timekeeper throughout, in all climates." Mr William Helps, Newtown, Sydney, June 25, 1889, writes: "This is to certify that I have carried a Waterbury Watch for the last three years, and it has given me every satisfaction as a timekeeper," The WATERBURY may be OBTAINED from any respectable Storekeeper or Dealer. A BROADCAST BLESSING. +. The educational force of the Waterbury Watch has been felt all over the world. America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australasia have shared in its civilising and en couraging impulse. The peasant of the Kussian Empire, the Kirghia on the steppes of Asia, the Arab horseman of the desert, and the Egyptian Fellaheen upon the Nile can,; and do boast, of a timekeeper, which for utility, accuracy, and rough service ia the peer of, and oiten more to be relied upon than, any elaborately-jewelled pocket piece carried by the nobility or richer classea of their respective countrymen. In Japan, throughout India, in the forests of Brazil, upon the plains of Buenoe Ayres, and into the furthest back-blocks of Australia the Waterbury Watch has found its way, and wherever the people are industrious there the Waterbury Watches are worn; there the people are daily becoming more punctual, enterprising, and successful. . ■'• ' . - ■ TIC% * Tick is synonymous with credit, and probably is derived from' the word time. There is but one kind of lick worth having. The tick of a Waterbury Watch. Neither is it too previous, nor a laggard, but always exactly on" time, and if you heed the monition of its ever faithful warnings you, too, will be prompt), reliable and successful. AN INTERESTING fcECTUBE. , * Mb C. D. McDougald, of Dundee, Scotland, lectured before the Dundee Mechanical Society, on " Watch EscapementsPast and Present," on December 21, 1888. The lecturer showed the great importance of Dr. Hook's invention of the balance spring, which, together with the balance wheel, constituted, he said, the true timekeeping part of the watch. The chronometer, duplex, lever, cylinder, and virgule escapements were minutely described with the aid of diagrams, and the properties of each as regards their influence on the timekeeping of the watch noted. He spoke at length of the duplex escapement, and expressed the opinion, from a (scientific poinb of view, that it was equal, if not superior, to the lever as an escapement suitable for firet-clasepocketwatchea. He referred to the wonderful productions of the Waterbury Watch Company, and stated that the merits of the duplex had been recognised by that company. A very large Waterbury model was shown in action, as well as all the ordinary productions of the Company. The method of cutting and setting up the teeth of the. Waterbury 'scape wheel, one of which was sent round the audience, was much admired, besides enlighteniug many upon the merit) of Yankee productions. The meeting terminated with a hearty vote of thanks to Mr McDougald.— Extract from " Dundee Advertiser."
