A WONDERFUL WATCH. THE CORRECT TIME FOR THIRTEEN AND SIXPENCE. ONE of the chief signs of the progress of the ago in which we live is the rapid improvement of machinery, and its tendency to cheapen the requirements of modern life. Fifty years ago, for instance, only a rich man could own a watch, and tho maiority of mankind, were .obliged to calculate the timo by tho sun's altitude, the! village dial in the old churchyard, or a generation further back, y>y the hour glass. To-day, however, the importance of lime obtains a wider recognil ion —not only ns a convenience or a luxury, but n3 tho absolute essence of business, and a reliable timekeeper is a primary requisite alike ot the merchant and his clerk, the »m---ploycr and the employe, tho schoolmaster and the pupil, the young and tho old, the rich and jthe poor. A timepiece of some sort is positively indispensable. Only a jewelled watch timed to split the secondßisaluxury. A good, serviceable, reliablo watch is a necessity— the Ilrst requisite of social and business life— and suoh a one Is tho WATERBURY, tho cheapest and most reliable watch in the world. The Watcrbury is so cheap that everybody can afford to own one, and its cheapness arises from the supreme simplicity of its construction. Because it is cheap, however, don't regard it as a toy or children's watch. It is equal in appearance, finish, and accuracy to tho most cxponsivo article, superior in strength and durability, and will cost less to repair thnn any other. The WATERBURY is in every respect essentially the watch for tho mechanic, the clerk, the miner, the bushman, the working man— in a word, the watch for THE PEOPLE, and is within the reach of all. Descriptively the WATERBURY is similar in appearance and size to the Waltham, has a white dial, bevelled crystal glass, and is keyJess, or a stem-winder, no fear of losing the key or leaving it in somo other pocket. As an evidence of the valuo and reliability of these splendid watches, we are now manufacturing over THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND Yearly, all of which are regulated and tested before leaving the factory.

" You said I didn' ieep good time, bo I have brought my Watebboth S osytbise will kGepjpod Uma. that will." Brooklyn, N.Y., October 10, 1881. Waterbury Watch Co. Gentlemen,— One of your watches was presented to me at the beginning of_ tho past season by one of the officers of this road. I was responsible for tho time used, and started all trains by your %yatch. Mr Gunthor, our president, stated that he never knew them run as regularly as they were the past season, and I showed the Waterbury Watch I ran them by. I stopped every morning during the season and compared, it with the chronometer at the Long Island Depbt and found it did not vary half a minute the entire season. This statement is truthfully correct. Wm. S. Blydenbubg. DepOtmnstor, Brooklyn, Bartb, and Coney Island Railroad. Tho WATERBURY WATCH, packed in satin-lined case, can now be obtained through any Storekeeper, price THIRTEEN SHILLINGS and SIXPENCE. Do not be gulled by spurious advertisements requiring you to send your money 10,000 miles away, and wait six months for tho return ; or pay exorbitant prices and rates of interest for ordinary watches on tho time-payment or club, principle. Get your Storekeeper or Jeweller to obtain one for you, and see what you are buying before parting with your cash, and never be persuaded by the sellers to buy any other on which he gets larger profit. We aro manufacturing THREE HUNDRED and TEN THOUSAND annually, all good timekeepers, handsome, accurate, and durable. 103 guMWtOtt.
