THE ECONOMY OF A GOOD WATCH.-“ Time is money 
If an account wore kept of the minutes, hours, and sometimes days, lost, fretted away, 
or worse than wasted in the course of a year by ignorance of the correct time, it would 
astonish many of us. We venture to say that there is scarcely a child not provided 
with a reliable watch, whose wasted time reckoned at 25 cents per day, would not 
amount to enough to buy several good 
watches in the course of twelve month*'. 
Being a minute late for the train, we fail to 
keep an important engagement, or we are 
obliged to lay over for an hour—perhaps a 
day; or we are in ono or more of a hundred 
different ways disconcerted and troubled. 
There is scarcely an 
hour of the day when 
one or another mem - 
ber of a household.

factory or farm, does not suffer because some one is not J 
prompt and methodical as to time. But how is one to be| 
thus prompt and methodical without a reliable time* 
keeper ? 
REVOLUTION IN PRICES .—The inven¬ 
tion and adaptation of machinery to the construction of 
watches has produced a revolution in prices during the 
past few years. Such a watch as we offer for $8, used to 
command $20. Our watches are supplied to us by Julian 
Gallet, who is one of the largest manufacturers in the 
world. His works are located in Switzerland, where labor 
and materials cost less than half what they do in this 
country. American manufacturers would have the public believe that the works in 
Swiss watches are not made by exact machinery, as are the "movements” of American 
goods; but such is not the fact. Watch making has been one of the chief industries of 
Switzerland for ages, and Swiss manufacturers arc well provided with everything that 
has been devised in the way of desirable machinery. Swiss watches at wholesale range 
in prices all the way from $1 up. As we offer nothing which is not fully warranted to give 
satisfaction, only such goods are supplied as will boar such a guarantee. 
EUREKA STEM WINDER .—Our “ Eureka ” movement comes in 
two sizes, one for gents and the other for boys. It is a Stem Setter as well as a Stem 
Winder, and is warranted to be as good a time keeper as is usually sold by dealers for 
$10. The open faced cases are a composition of nickle, Tine and copper, which is 
termed white metal. It is not quite as bright as silver, but it is just as strong and 
durable. Our illustration shows the exact size of the Gent’s "Eureka.” The Boy’s 
watch is the same in every particular except that it is smaller. With fair usage, either 
watch will last a lifetime. Price $8, by Begistered mail, for either size. 
LADYS’ WATCH. —This is a Stem Winder and Stem Setter. It has 
the white metal, half-open-face case; the exact size of the illustration. It is a hand¬ 
some, durable and reliable watch, and is warranted to give satisfaction in every par¬ 
ticular. Price $10, by Begistered mail. -
