NAE DOOT.
There is generally a few minutes' difference between the railway time and that ot the clock at the Fo6t Office bat then that is not to be wondered at because the best chronometers vary and require frequent rating. Where mcuhanism of a delicate and extremely complicated nature is employed to produce a given result a grent deal of expense and attention naturally follows. The only horological instrument so far that never varies is the Waterbury Watch, which, possessing less than half the mechanism of a Swiss or English watch, is not liabla to disorder, Bnd in case of accident can be repaired for the nominal sum of half a crown. This wonderful watch, faithful to its trust, ticks on, year in and year out, with an accuracy as certain and implacable as fate. __ _— __—
