W HY raves that ghastly haggard wretch, who stamps with frantic mien, A nd crushes neath his iron heel what once a watch had been ? T hat watch was a deceiver, and that man has been deceived, Even now he missed his train because ifcs false tale he believed. Returning ten day a afterward, I see with face serene Before me stand, with watch in hand, he who that wretch had been. Untroubled now he waits the train, devoid of care or worry, Repose and rest upon his face, where all before was flurry. You ask me "Whence this wondrous change ?" He's bought a Waterbury ? NOTE. The genuine Waterbury Watch is sold by the agents, Messrs. E. Porter and Co., Queen-street, Auckland, and branches, at 13s 6d each, and buyers will do well to purchase from them direct, in order to secure themselves from annoyance and imposition. There is only one Waterbury, and it has only one price, 13s 6d. Many watches are sold daily, at from 7s Gd to 11s, as Waterbuiys, which are simply cheap and rubbishy imitations made in Switzerland and on the Continent. These will neither keep time, nor Can they be repaired, as no watchmaker has nhy proper material. IMPORTANT NOTICE. The Waterbury Watch Comjxiny have contracted with a leading Queen-street Jeweller to repair any Waterburyx sold by their agents, E. Porter and Co., at a price ranging from sixpence to half-a-crown, and to supply them solely with material for the purpose. Shmdd any Waterbury need repairing or adjusting take it at once to the agent. If you take, it to any other jeweller, or attempt to open and adjust it yourself, you cannot succeed, and in this case, should you seek to Jutve it set right by the agents, a uniform cliarge of FIVE SHILLINGS will he made. On no account urill any cheap imitation watches be repaired. In consequence of many owners opening their watches for experimental purposes, we have resolved to doufde the charge for repairing all such, because a great many parts are necessarily strained and broken through imperfect knowledge in the operation.
