EXPERTS AND CRYSTALS.

Have you ever examined critically the crystals used in the bezels of the Waterbury Watches ? If nob, then this will suggest io doing ab your first) opportunity. Each of the glasses used undergoes a minute and careful scrutiny in the hands of an expert —an expert whose precision and untiring fidelity appears almost marvellous. Crystals arc often rejected whose defects are so s-lighl; ns to escape not only the ordinary eyo, bub even the vision of foremen and trained employees in other branches. Yet, upon taking one of them to the expert, that person will invariably point out the fault, and do it. withal, so quickly that one would almost believo bhespob to have been marked for identification. The testing of crystals, rigid as it is, is but a sample of the method and care prevalent in every branch of the Watorbury Watch Co.'s factory. Precision is the Keystone to their success ; and therein lies the secret of the wonderful results obtained in the time-keeping qualities of their marvellously reliable watches at a nominal cost. The people of Great Britain and of the United States are eminently practical, whilo those of the Australasian colonies are nowise behiud them in this particular, and tho continued flow of acknowledgements received from them could nob be wrung forth by misrepresentation, nor sustained by anything else than the ruosb deservedly practical worth.
