Watotiss. QJTEWART r\AW3ON & i^o. AND A. G. BAKTLEIX A. G. BARTLETT STILL SUFFERING FROM STEWART DAWSON & CO. S OASTIGATION, And their attempt to retrieve the ground lost because of Mr. Dawson's exposure. The firm longs for the good old days of exorbitant profits ; gone, however, upon tho arrival of STEWART DAWSON & CO. A, G. Bartlett having been silenced by S. D. and Go's exposure of their peonllar mode of charging for their Watches, now attempt to oover their defeat by repeating the old statements. He»r what A. G. Bartlett says—that th» Watch No. 52,276 was sold to Mr. G. Reynolds ttven years ago. Nothing of the kind. The receipt in our window shows the date 1880. The above watch, for which BARTLETT CHARGED £6. IS ONE OF EHRHARDT'S VERY CHEAPEST GRADE. IT WINDS LIKE A GENEVA. HAS LESS WORKS INSIDE, AND COSTS CONSIDKRABLY LESS THAN THE ONE HE NOW PROFESSES TO SELL FOR £8. NO WONDER HIS CUSTOMERS ARE GALLKD WHEN nE SHOWS THEM SO CLEARLY THE EXTRAORDINARY PROFIT HE HAS BEEN CHARGING THEM. A. G. Bartlott invites the public to compare his £3 itatch with Stewart Dawion and Co.'s ; bnt will the public notice that he hat raised tho price of the Watch he now wants £3 for ? They offered the same Watch for £1 10i when Mr. Dawaoa was here. The public might " like to know, you know," why the change of price. Stewart Dawson and Cu.'s prices are still the same as In 1879. See their Watches marked In plain flunree. Will the respectable linn state the contents of tho document they asked Mr. Reynolds to sign T A. G. Bartlett says Mr. Reynolds said the £6 Watch lost bnt une rnluuto per week. Yen, but he found a better Watch at ntewart Dawaon and Co.'s, and one that kept perfect time. STEWART DAWSON & CO. Are hsppy to know that A. G. Bartlett, sen., has retired from the firm. Perhaps that accounts for the tactics of the present Proprietors, for it was always a mystery why an old resident of this city we so highly re«p«cted could uki such questionable means to Id jure a fellow tradesman. STEWART DAWSON * CO. Are abreast of tho times. THEY SELL THEIR WATCHES CHEAP. Direct from the M inufactory, AND DEF? COMPETITION. BEE THEIR WATCHES ON EXHIBITION, And compare them with Bartlett'*.
