IN THE ENEMY'S CAMP. Mr. D. Youn'g, of London, who is manager of the Water bury Watch Company's exhibit, informed me that he is selling: on an average 500 watches a day in the industrial section of the Children's Palace, where the Waterbury is also on display : and I uninformed at the Waterbury headquarter-:, in the Rue Montmartre, where a store for t.he sale of Waterbury Watches exclusively has been open for some time, that the watch is much liked by the French people, and the sales are rapidly increasing. - " Chamberlyne" in the Manufacturing Jeweller. Note.—The local of the Waterbury Watch Company desire to draw the attention of would-be purchasers of genuine Waterbury watches to the fact mat the word "Waterbury" in small letters, and also the interwoven letters "W.W.Co..' appear upon the dial face of every watch manufactured by the above-named company. This caution is, unfortunately, rendered necessary from the fact that it has come under notice that numerous persons have (much to their disgust) been deceive! nto buying watches as \\ aterburys which, were no more Waterbury watches than the imoon is green cheese. The agents of the company will be glad to have any future cafes of such imposition promptly brought under their notice.
