YOU will agree with us that it would Iβ a difficult matter to find a man or woman who WCno/TJal „ di»likee the idea of wearing a gold watch. 4? J/CClal Many nerer expect to be able to afford one; othen again can easily afford it, but do not like Ifl t At*ACi" f A *? ron tbe ri,k of toeing eueh a valuable poeses--1 IIICICS I iU Bion. If we conld only meet these people face to _. • **<» »nd have a few minutes , talk with them, we Jllid Mald q uick, J«fa°wtt«niaway,andasatisfactoTy IMUUgIUIUI itllU way, too, out of tbe difficulty. The 14ct. gold- _ . _ _ fiUe <* caee was the inyention of a mechanical frftVlflPlll ItlPfl geniae, one James Boss, in 1853. Hβ conceived riUVIUCUI MCll the idea of a stiffened gold watch case; a caie _ „. th »* would look like a selid geld case for a flfifl WfimPll specified long term of years, would be actually. mill Tf UillCll* better than a eolid gold caw as a protection to the movement, and would cost much less. Bis I thought was to replace the gold that was hidden * away in the thickneu of the case—the wasted "■■■—— gold—by a cheaper, stronger metal, and thus preserve all the beauty of the solid gold case at no sacrifice, but an actual gain, of utility. These 14ot. gold-filled watch cases are made of two • plates of solid 14ct. gold, with a plate of hard cemposition metal between them, thus making the surfaces that are exposed to wear of solid gold, and using a cheap metal to obtain ctiffness and strength, thereby obtaining a case which .JV-sgrjSSSjrtefcri ioT *U practical purposes is equal to solid gold, at * eo9 * °' ' rom one-third to one-half the cost fr ? *i3llmrf of a " olid gold c * se - B * ew »rt Dawson & Co.'s 25 eurß ' guaranteed gold-filled watches are not to be confounded with the ordinary Americann,ade cold-filled or rolled gold watches. In all tbe essentials ours are the equal of solid gold. Externally, there is no difference ; the gold on the outside, the designs, the workmanship, and all the details of precisely the same m in a solid gold wafch.
