own on*. s. ■- • * A WONDERFUL WATCH. THE CORRECT TIME FOR THIRTEEN AND SIXPENCE. /YNE of the chief signs of the progress \J of the age in which we live is the^ rapid . improvement of machinery, and its tendency to cheapen the requirements of modern life. . Pif tr years *go, for instance, only a rich man* coul'downawatch.and the maiorityof mankind vece obliged to calculate the time by the sun's attitude, the village dial in the old churchyard, or a generation further back, by the hour-glass. To-day, however, the importance of time obtains a wider recognition — not only as a convenience or a luxury but as the absdute essence of business, and a reliable timekeeper is a primary requisite alike of the meichant and his clerk, the employer and the employee, the schoolmaster and the pupil," the young and the old, the rich and the poor. A timepiece of some sort is positively indispensable. Only a. jewelled watch timed to split the seconds is a luxury. A good, serviceable, reliable watch is a necessity— the first requisite of social and business life and ! such a one is the Waterburv, the cheapest &nd most reliable watch in the world. The Waterbury 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 m appearance finish, and accuracy to the most expensive article, superior in strength and durability, and will cost less to repair than any other. Tho Waterbury is in ever*, respect essentially O»e watch for the mechanic, the clerk, the miner, the bushman, the working man— in a word, the watch for the people, and is within the reach of aUWaterbury Watch Company. Gentlemen. — One of your watches was presented to me at the beginning of the past season by one of the officers of this road. I was responsible for the time used, and started all trains by your watch. Mr Gunther, our President, stated that he never knew, them run as regularly as they were the pa"t 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 Depot, and found it did not vary half a minute the entire season. This- statement is truthfully correct. Wm. S. Blydenbuko, Depot-master, Brooklyn t Barth, and Coney Island Railroad. ALL JEWELLERS AND STOREKEEPERS. REPAIR DEPARTMENT. The Waterbury is not only the cheapest watch in th 9 world to buy, but the cheapest to repair as well. With the same care bestowed upon it as upon an ordinary watch, it will outlast its most expensive rivals, and should it get out of order Messrs. E. Porter and 06. have arranged with a first-class watchmaker to repair at a price which -will not exceed half-a--crown. Watches can be mailed for repair in the satin-lined cases in which they are paoked, and in this cage ninepence for return, postage and registration should be added. Fbiob 13s 6d. ° Agents : E.
