THE PARSON'S ADVICE.
He was a clergyman, and hailed from England, and this is what he said to some friends in the smoking room of the Tarawera on a very recent trip: " Yes, I carry a Waterbury, and have always found it quite reliable, I'm fond of fishing, and often wade a great deal when playing' a salrnon or landing a big trout. Every time I used to get my watch wet formerly it cost me twelve and sixpence to put it right again. I bought a Waterbury, and although it has often been under water, its accuracy has never been affected; so I have ceased to carry any other for the last two years.
