"... ....... ..mfflttg. .: „.T~Z S. E. COOPER,:. WATCHMAKER & JEWELLER HjVSTINGS-STREET, NAPIER (Opposite tho^Unlonlßank.) ' WATCHES, . ENGLISH WATOHES WATCHES, ; AMERICAN WATOHES WATOHES, GENEVA WATCHES WHEN ttiehistorianrocords tho events of tho nineteenth century ho will describe it as tho era in which the mo-' chamcal arts reached tholr apex. Ab the ' poriod of Elizaboth is known to Btudent3 as tho ago of literature, the present century, although also rfimarkablo for its intellectual acumon, will bo cbiofly romembered as tho age of inventions and of produclivo excollonco. Men not yet . elderly can roinember tho introduction o£ tho locomotive, tho steamship, 'and,- tho art of lighting by gas.. To thoso moro youthful tho triumplis of olectricity have not yot lost tho keon edgo of novolty, and tho telegraph, .tolephono, ■ microphone, and the electric .light stand as, shining ; beacons to mark tho marvollous progress, of tho nineteenth contury. The genoral impetus which tho invontivo genius of the' ago has given to tho arts and sciences is- . strikingly illustrated by tho wonderful : ' improvements in tho manufacture of Watches. S. E. COOPER can now Boll'f or ' * comparatively trifling sum, Watches' that for gonoral oxcollonco could not have been produced for twico tho monoy only a •low years ago. Thoso sceptical as to this assertion SQOulainspccthis stock, whiohis ' . npfc only- the largest and mo3t varied in Hawko s Bay, but does not contain a single specimen of tho "Brummagem" goods' which English cheapjaoks try to palm upon' colonial buyere, using the poat-oftlco and stilted "coupon '.'.announoomonts to docoivo tho -unwary. Bvory sensible" man .knows -that tho beat- way to get a good' Watch i 3 to purchase from a reliablo • Tradesman, and that to trust to birds of passage, or to purveyors of puffed-up gimcracks mode for tho fancy shops of Houndsditch, is simply to invite loss of monoy and much vexation, . . , " READ M^wß QUERIES Why send out ot tho district for Watonos? Why forget that you can proeuro a Cheaper and Bettor Article in Napior? . Why omit to weigh tho worth oca guarantee from a tradesman who livea in tno district, and who can be found NOT ONLY TO-MORROW OR NBXT WEEK, but whose stay of many years in the past is the best warrant for his presence horo when required at any timo in tho future? Remember that a guarantee from a tradesman settled in the placo is not a piece of waste papor, but an agreement binding'the giver to perform all that is statod. Buy your Watohes in tho district, and ensure a good article and a guarantee worth having. S." E. COOPER'S .Watohes are imported direct from tho factories of tho most celebrated English, American, and Continental makers.

To thoso who favor ; AMERICAN WATCHES ; S. E.
