' WATOHES, i ' ENGLISH WATOHES, WATCHES, • AMERICAN WATOHES, WATOHES, : j I GENEVA WATOHES. ■\X7HEN tho historian records tho events ti of th« nineteenth contury ho will . dcscrlbo it as tho ■ era. in which tho me- , chanical arts reached thoir apex. , As the 1 poriod of Elizabeth is known to students as tho' aga of literature, the','presdnt con* .' tury; although' also remarkablq' for, its •' -, intellectual ' acumen,: will, bo colony reaiembored as tho aga of inventions and of productive , excellence. Mon' not yet elderly can remembor the introduction of tho locomotive, tho steamship, > and th 6 art 'Of. -lighting -by gas. ' T.o'4hoso moro . youthful tho triumphs of olootrioity have 1 ■' not'yet lost tho keen edge' of notelty, and : the • telegraph, •'• telepliono, microphone! ■ and- -tho electric light 'stand 'as 'Bhining ■ Beacons to. mark tho nmrrollous progress of the nineteenth century. Tho generaj impetus which tho'inventive genius of tho ■ago has given' to the arts ana sciences is • strikingly illustrated ' by the wonderful ' imprbvomenta in tho' manufacture of Watohes. : S.E. COOPER can now 801 l for a- comparatively .trifling sum, -Watches that for genoral oxcollonoo could not havo been produced for twico tho money only a , few years ago. Thoso sceptical, as to this '■ assertion should inspect life stook, whlch'ii not; only, tho largost and most Taried in Hawke s Bay, but does not contain a single specimen v 'df tho " Brummagem ". goods which English ehoapjacks try to palm upon colonial buyers, using the poat-offlco and stilted "coupon", announcements to do) . ceivo tho unwary. Every sonsibla man • knows that tho best way to got a' good . Watoh' Is to purohoso from 'a roliabld Tradesman, and that to' trust- to birds of passage, or to purveyors of puffed-up gim-' ,oraoksnjadofor tho fancy shops of Hounds- ' ■ditch; is simply to invite loss of monoy and- ; much voxfttfon. ' - READ FOt - VINO QUERIES Why send out of the district for Watches! Why forgot that you can pro-l euro a Choapor and Bettor- Article, in| . Napier?. Why omit;to weigh th«iworth| of a guarantoo from a tradesman who li res; Iri tno 'district, and wjio oan be found NOT ONLY TO-MORROW OR NEXT WEEK, but' ' whoso stay of many years in tlio past is the! bosi warrant for his presonco hero: when! required at any timo in tho' future?
