About 7 years ago Stewart Dawson & Co., Liverpool, originated and introduced a new pystem of business in the Knglish Watch Trade, viz. -.—lnstead of continuing to sell their watches to retail dealers on credit with long payments, they resolved to go direct to the public themselves, and sell their manufacture for cash — a system which has received world-wide patronage never before equalled in the history of watch-making. S. D. & Co. have now fully placed this advantngeous system of business within the reach of the Colonial public, and here remind all that, by dealing direct with them, the actual manufacturers, every customer saves three large profits — the London Wholesale Dealers' Profit, the Colonial Wholesale Dealers' Profit, and the Colonial Retail Dealers' Profit — in all over 100 per cent, saved to each purchaser.
