HUNTING- 
CASED 
WATCHES” 
(The qualities and resemblance of this new metal are snch, 
compared to gold, that even judges are deceived) and 
“ROSKOPE’S Patented PEOPLE'S WATCH.” 
The Improved Bronze Aluminium of which my watches 
are made is a metal differing entirely from any ever ottered 
to the public. It lias seriously occupied the attention ol 
Scientific men, and lias not only called forth the eulogiums 
of tlie press in consequence of its peculiar properties, hut 
has also obtained a Gold Medal at the Paris Exposition, and 
even been favorably noticed by rescript of His Holiness Pius 
IX.,authorizing its use in the manufacturing ot Church goods. 
The qualities of this metal are such that it is surpassed by 
none, if we except gold itself, and that only on account of 
the 'intrinsic value of the latter. Further details will he 
found in my circular, which will be sent postpaid on demand. 
My watches are made of three sizes, all hunting-cased— 
■one small for ladies or lads, and two for gents. The move¬ 
ments are well finished, carefullv put together by skillful 
workmen, and perfectly regulated. lean therefore warrant 
them excellent time-keepers. These goods being manufact¬ 
ured in my own factory, I am enabled to sell any of the 
above sizes at the extremely low price of $16.00. A full 
assortment of all kinds of chains always on hand.
