"Witli Pleasure." __» Under date Cooktown, August 15, 1887, Mr H. FitzGerald, Inspector of Police, writes : — " Ec St Jacoba oil. Having suffered extremely during the last twelve months through an injury received in falling from my horse, it is with pleasure I testify to the extraordinary qualifications of St Jacoba oil for alleviating pain." Vi^SIMTOEKfEACH oF^S^-cali^ THEY AEE UNIQUE. Many people have an idea that the Waterbury, because a cheap watch, is therefore cheaply made. A vißit to the Company's factory, at "Waterbury, Conn., would decidedly alter thi3 impression. On seeing the extent and variety of the machinery used, and the neatness, order, and organisation there exhibited, you begin to realise that making a cheap watch (and a good one) is not, by any means the off-hand affair you had thought it was. As you pass through department after department, and observe the working of the wonderful automatic machines which make parts so fine you can scarcely see them, and yet so accurate that they can be taken at random and fitted together to form a perfect watch ; as you note the handling of the part 3by dainty and skil- ! ful fingers, the delicacy of the process, and j the thoroughness and care as to every ! detail, you find it difficult to imagine that they are not making one hundred dollar watches, and you then become convinced that the "Waterbury is oheap— not because poorly made, but because unique and simple in construction.
