NEWS FROM FIJI.
Levxtka, 19th Nov., 1889. Gentlemen,-—" Desiring to express my admiration of the Waterbury Watch, I place on record the following facts in connection therewith that I am personally acquainted with, viz.. that for the last two years I have constantly carried a Waterbury, and have always found it to keep exceuent time. I have made a point of often comparing it with a £12 12s Waltham and a ship's chronometer kept by the harbormaster, and have very rarely found it to differ in reading from either. 1 can also state for a fact that Waterburys are worn in preference to others by several of the most prominent business men of this town."—-L. Johnston. ■__».&—I also time the Bank of N.Z. clock withit.
