PROFESSOR ANDREW JAMIESON. PRINCIPAL of the COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES, GLASGOW (Scotland), gives his evidence as follows :—: — "Five weeks ago I got from yon a Waterbury Watch; and having been previously annoyed by my lever watch (topping and keepihg bad time whenever I went near dynamo machines, I inserted the Waterbury Watch between the poles of a tenhorse power dynamo. Of course the watch instantly stopped; but on being started again I only regulated it twice within two days, and have found that for one whole month it did not vary two minutes from correct Greenwich tiino. I now prefer it to my former and more expensive watch, oud consider it an excellent timekeeper for working men and others connected with electric lighting. If you want correct time and a watch, which, in event of accident, can bo cheaply and efficiently repaired, AVOID the ohoap trashy, Swiss burglar-baits sometimes sold to the unwary as timekeepers. Consult public opinion in the matter —not the interests of some pettifogging dealer, who too eagerly foists upon you a useless, rubbishy, and worthless article for the sake of gaining a little extra profit, and who cares little for your execrations which will surely be showered on lus head in the near future. If you consult publio opinion you will beyond a shadow of a doubt BUY A WATERBURY, the testimony in favor of as a reliable and accurate timekeeper is overwhelming, and which, moroovor, in event of injury can be efficiently repaired at low cost by taking or sending it to any of the company's repair agencies, established in various centres of the colonies. The Waterbury may be obtained from any leading or respectable storekeeper, price (aeries E) 13s Gd, series (J or L) 20b. XTfHEAT TO T ONDON.
