A PJRETTY CONCEIT. The enormous sales of the Waterbury have led firms who do not care for a steady turnover at a legitimate proiit to explore the purlieus of the Continent for cheap inferior " tickers "-ve do not call them watohes\vlth which to 'run the Waterbury.' These possess one virtue only—that of showing the dealer a retnrn of some 150 per cent, on his outlay. That they should keep time Is a matter of no moment, so long as they resemble the Waterbury in outward appearance, style of casing, etc, with sufficient closeness to deceive a careless or unwary purchaser, Firms doing this often say to us "What do wo care; wecanmako five shillings a watch, moro on them then wo can on yours; and as to keeping'timo, well, our troubles about that," Buyers requiring reliable watches can trust the Waterbury, and the jublio requiring the correot time should see that they got it, The gents' or ladies' Waterbury, gold filled or in sterling silver, are handsome, Inexpensive, and durable; whilst tho nickel varieties aro so well known that thoy require no further recommendation, It is a pretty oonceit for hero and there astray trader to think'his imports of tho " Nebuohadnezzar," the " Millenium," the " Gonbung," or some other speoially titled monstrosity, has any effect on the Waterbury market, whilst for every watch he nervously orders over one hundred Waterburys are always afloat for New Zealand, Tho teal strength'of the Waterbury lies in its absolute reliability, in other words its absolute refusal to keep anything but the correct time, We sometimes see" tibkers"—we still bar them any other title-offered for sale which are really wonderful combinations, They not only eihibit the whoie of the celestial bodies on their facts, but keep time, or profess to.tell you the state of the money markot, the amount of any partioulal member's indebtedness at Bellamy's, and the name of tho nest Bank to reconstruct in Australia. The Waterbury does not do this. It simply keeps correct time and goes on doing so, THE BEST Family Bledicine CURE SICK HEADACHE, CONSTIPATION, Dyspepsia, Livor Troubles
