The superiority of Wells. Richardson & Co’s. Improved 
Butter Color over ail others made, is again demonstrated 
by its record at the Autumnal Fairs, The test of pratical 
use is tvliat tells the story, and the great value ot the 
jremiums given by the Agricultural Fairs, lies in the 
.act, that the judges in these cases are regular farmers, 
who know what their needs are and what will supply them. 
Wells, Richardson & Co’s. Improved Butter Color, which 
has taken tirst premium at ad fairs where exhibited, 
is put up in a vegetable oil so prepared that it cannot 
become rancid, a most important property, the lack of 
which is fatal to so many of the Butter-Colors ottered 
for sale. It does not color the buttermilk; it imparts 
a bright natural color, which is unattained by many 
others; and being the strongest is the cheapest Color in 
the market. 
U. W. Johns Manufacturing Com-

How Watch Cases are Made. 
In 1875, thirteen men comprised the 
entire working force used in the manu¬ 
facture of the James Boss’ Gold Watch Case. 
Now over five hundred are employed, and the 
number is constantly increasing. The rea¬ 
son of this increase is this: In the James 
Boss’ Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight 
and subject to wear is solid gold, while the re¬ 
mainder, which only lends strength to the 
case, is of stronger metal than gold, 
giving gold where gold is needed, and 
strong, elastic metal where strength and 
elasticity are needed, a combination pro¬ 
ducing a watch case better than solid gold 
and at one-iialf the cost. sadeJ§Lm«k 
Over 200,000 of these cases TR 
have been sold, and every jeweler in the 
country can testify to their quality and 
meilt. Ludington, Mich., Dec. E, 1882. 
E. W. Marsh, of the Democrat, bought a Jas. Boss’ 
Gold Watch case 18 years ago, aud carried it until a 
short time ago, when I purchased it, and sold it to a 
customer. The case showed no signs of wear, except 
that natural to any case, and I am satisfied can be 
safely guaranteed for at least ten years more. I have 
sold the JameB Boss’ GoldWatch Case for many years, 
and the parties who bought the first ones are carry¬ 
ing them to-day, as well satisfied as though they had 
bought a solid gold case costing twice the money. I 
regard them as the only cases of this kind a jeweler 
should sell who desires to give his customers the 
worth of their money or values his reputation.
