Public Notices IMPORTANT for EVERYBODY. rpiJE RODANOW MANUFACTURING J_ COMPANY (Limited—Capital, 2,000,000dol.), Boston, America, will forward, hereafter, even one single watch to any part uf the world at wholesale price, i.e., 35 per cent, cheaper than any watchmaker, as none of them is manufacturing: svatcho9 himself, but only buying them from here. We call the particular attention of everyone intending to purchase a first-class reliable watch to our following price-list:— KEY-WINDING WATCHES. Silver Watch £ s. <]. Crystal glaos, seconds hand ... 0 10 0 Hunting case, engraved, highly finished .*, 0 14 0 Skeleton movement, extra jewelled, stout double cover ... 10 0 fSoltl Watch ■'■ Jewelled, maintaining power, crystal glass ... "■;. ..7" I*lo 0 Half hunter, enamel or gold dial, lever escapement ... 1 16 0 Hunting case, superior nickel movement, best quality, with all the latest improvements, two gold covers 2 3 0 KEYLESS WATCHES (Stem winders). The keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the great modern improvements in watch work. It does away with the oldfashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch.is wound by turning a nurled knob, placed on tho handle or bow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in the same way. The advantages of these improvements are ibvious ; the case, which never need bo opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly prolonging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.
