Dawaon & Co., Liverpool, originated and introduced a new system of business in; the English Watch Trade, viz. -—Instead of "continuing to sell their watches to retail .dealers on credit with long pajment, they resolved to go direct to the public themselves and sell their manufactures for cash—a system ■which has received a world-wide patronage never before equalled in the history of watchmaking. S. D. & Co. have now fully placed this advantageous system of business within the reach of "the colonial public, and here remind all that, by dealing direct with them, the actual Manufacturers, every customer saves three large profits—the London Wholesale Dealers' Profit, <^fe Colodal Wholesale Dealers' Profit, and the Colonial Retail Dealers' Profit—in all ovee one hundbed PEE CENT.
