(Stemwinders) The keyless mechanism to a watch is one of the great modern improvements in watch work ; it does away with the ohl-fashioned key, with which so many persons have ruined their watches. The watch is wound by turning a nurled knob, placed on the handle oxbow, instead of by the ordinary means ; the hands are set in the same way. The advantages of these improvements are obvious, the case, which never need be opened in winding, is made air-tight and dust-tight, thus preserving much longer the fluidity of the oil, and greatly px-olouging the intervals between the necessary cleaning of the watch.

I attribute this to the fact of being able to buy largely in Clothing and direct from the manufacturers, thus saving all intermediate profits, A very large assortment of every description of Men’s, Youths’, and Boys’ Shirts and Hats, very cheap.
