TXTHEN tho historian records tho oventfl V r of tho ninetconth contury ho willdescribe it as tho era in which tho mechanical arts reached thoir apex. As tho period of Elizabeth is known to studonta as the ajo of literature, tho present con- . tury,, : although aIBO rcmarkablo for its ■ intellectual aoumon, will'be chiefly rqmonibered as, tho ago of inventions and of productive . excellence. Mon not ydt • • elderly can:remombor tho introduction of '.-' the locomotive, tho steamship,' and tho arD of lighting by gas.. .To thoso moro' youthful tho triumphs ol oleotrioity have not yet lost tho keen edgo of novelty, and ■tho' telegraph, telephone, miorophono, "and thoolectrio light stand as shinins; beacons to mark tho marvellous progress ' of tho ninetoontli century. Tho. gonoral impetus which the invontfvo genius of tho : : ago has given to the arts and scloncos is strikingly illustrated by tho wonderful improvements in tho manufacture of Watches. , S. E. COOPER can now sell for a comparatively trifling sum, Watches that for gonoral oxcoHenoo could not havo ' been produced for twico tho money only a • ,fow years ago. Thoso sceptical' as to this . assortion should inspect hfe stock, which is , not only the largest and most varied in Hawko s Bay, but does not contain a Binglo ' specimen of tho " Brummagem "• goods which English choapjacks try to palm upon colonial buyera, using tho pbstipfllco and stilted "coupon" announcements ' to deceive the unwary. Every' sonafblo man knows that tho bost way to got a good Watch, ls to purchase from a reliableTradesman, and that to trust to birds of passage, or to purveyors of puffed-up ginicraoks made for tho fancy shops of Hounds- • „ ditch, is simply to Invite loss of money and much vexation. READ Fo J™ im QUERIES Why send out of tho district for Watches! Why forget that you can pro- ' euro a Cheapor and Bettor Artlolo in Napier? Why omit to weigh tho worth of a guarantpo from a tradesman who lives in tno district, and wno can be found NOT ONLY TO-MORROW OB NEXT WEEK, but whoso stay of many years in tho past is tho best warrant for his presonco horo whon required at. any time m tho future? Romombor that a guarantco from a tradoaman sottled.in tho place Is not a piece of wasto paper, but an agrcemont bindingtho giver to perform all that is stated. Buy your Watches in tho district, and onsuro a good article and a guarantee .worth having. • S. E.

IT IS WITH MANY PERSONS A DEBAT- • ABLE POINT Whothor tho Watches of tho Waltham ' Manufacturing Company :are not equal in ovory respect to tho bost timekeepers turned out by English factories.
