ARRIVAL OF TUB' .NEW It 13 not often that the arrival of a ship- | ment of goods in New Zealand wutera is go generally welcomed as the arrival of the present parcel of Waterbury Watches. By the fire on the Ruahine 3000 Watkrbcrysgold, silver, and nickcl-wcrc destroyed, and this interruption m the regular milow lun kept the market bare till the landing ... 1 'I'ITT |-V*MII of the present parcel Iho Hon. Dr. Pollen stated in the Legislative Council that -95,000 Adult Males ' . pay the whole of this eclony's taxation, iniiintain its Civil Servic, run its railways and public works and forms the nucleus of tlie colony's prosperity ; and yet to this very limited population over 120 000 Watekburys „. , . have been sold and delivered and the shipmeut now landing consists of 2880 Wateeburys, which i' followed by the Elinor Vornon, due in a month, with 2SSO More, all told already to the wholesale trade, who have been waiting supplies for from three to four month 1. Large as these figures are, twe other shipments are to arrive before Chiistinas, and we venture to affirm that no other watch can show a sale in New Zealand during that period covered since the Waterbury advent of One to Each Hundred Waterburys. .... ..... .. Jewellers and retail dealers will kindly send their orders to our agents as quickly as possible. WATERBURY WATCH CO.. t . TlM^rnTlvr n^-vrn-ciTTt A PRETTY CONCEIT. The enormous sales of the Waterbury have led firms who do not care for a steady turnover at a legitimate profit to explore the purlieus of the Continent for cheap inferior " tickers "—we do n>t call them watches— with which to " run the Waterbury." These possess one virtue only—that of showing the dealer a return of some 150 per cent, on his outlay. That they should keep timn is a matter of no moment, so loug as they res«mb,« the W^rWy b^outw^d np = ance, style of casing, «c, with sulncieut closeness to deceive a careless or unwary purchaser. Firms doing this often say to us, " What do we care ;we can make five shillings more a watch on them than wr can on your 3 ; aud as for keeping time, well, our troubles about that." Buyers requiring reliable watches cm trust the Waterbury, and the public requiring the correct time should see that they get it. The gents' or ladies' Waterbury, gold nMcd or in sterling silver, are hands'mo, inexpensive, and durable; whilst tho nickel varieties r.re so well known that they require no further recommendation. It is a pretty conceit for here and there a stray trader to think his imports of the " Nebuchadnezzar," the "Millenium," the "Gonboug," or some other specially titled monstrosity, has any effect on the Waterbury market, whilst for every watch he nervously orders over one hundred Waterburys are always afloat for New Zealand. The real strength of the Waterbury lies in its absolute reliability, in other words its absolute refusal to keep anything but the correct time. We sometimes see " tickers "—we still bar them any other title—offered for sale which are really wonderful combinations. They not only exhibit the whole of the celestial bodies on their faces, but keep time, or profess to, tell you the state of the money market, the amount of any particular members indchtedness at Bellamy's, and the name of the aiu emiraa «i * ', :,, Al,.m|!., r,,. n nr\t bank to reconstruct 111 Australia. J lie „. ""■""■ tIJ '^ . T -,„_,„ Waterburv does not do tlis. It simply wa.ivivuiy „„„,.„,, ,v:. m „„ keeps coirect time, and goes on doing so. ; —-■ GOOD YALUJii. J^X^^s^rlZ^e lied or M given P than its immense sale. Any watch the sale of which can be made to excectl lonrtnn IJU>OUU to a population no larger than New Zealand's, and that, too, without diminishing its demand, requires no further recommendation. This trade has been built up on the solid basis of good value for money. The wholesaler and the retailer maintain a uniform and moderate price, and the public are secured by the magnitude of the turn over. The Waterbary is carried by all classes of the community; and is cased to suit all wearers. The new and pretty nickel "L " is a good youths' or misses' watch; the Hftrlinjr silver aud cokl-nllcd JN are handsome ladies' watches, whether in plain or chased chatelaine or open-faced cases; whilp for centlemen, the nickel " J," or the Srling sifver or gold-filled "K » are at least as handsome as the highest class of English or American levers.
