tlie most approved principles, and combines all the recent 
Improvements. It has a new mierometrieal regulator, by 
which the slightest variation can be easily corrected. It is 
carefully adjuster], and may be entirely relied on to run ac- 
curately, wear well, and ESBTJfiE THE HARDEST 
USAGE, without any derangement whatever. TVc confi- 
dently recommend this watch to the trade and the public as

Time is Money. 
This old-timed axiom is aptly illustrated in tho use of 
Doolet's Yeast Powdek. It is well known that the com- 
mon process of raising doujih is a slow one, and often at- 
tended with unfavorable results from the use of poor baker's 
yeast and improper hear. With Doolet's Yeast Powder, 
the best of rolls, biscuits, corn-cakes, etc., can he made in 
the short Bpace often minutes, and uniform success will 
certainly attend its use. This is owing to its purity, strength, 
and the care with which it is manufactured. Doolet &
