tion forbidding any reduction of the rates

Waltham Watches
That the American Wa'cb is superior in accuracy as a
time keeper, and in substantial Talue, to its imported ri
vale, is now generally conceded by the Intelligent. It is
so made as to r-nder imperfection a physical possibility
The question now is: "Which is the best American
Watch" Then follows: "Which thoroughly good watch
is really the cheapest 7" We answer
Tim Waltham Watches have stood the test of time
Waltham is the original seat of American watch-making
The idea of making our own watches, and making each
piece of machinery epecially adapted thereto, so that a
piece lost or broken may surely be replaced by a similar
piece from any other w•a'ch of its class, or one ordered
from the manufactory on purpose, originated here; and
here it has been carried to perfection. Every year since
the start has witnessed improvements in machinery, pro
cesses, and workmanship, until watches are now made at
Waltham as cheaply and excellently as anywhere on
earth, as the vast and ever-wzdenh.g domand zor them
abundantly proves
Tho success of the American Watch has Incited seve-
ral attempts at rivalry, which we are nowise in:lined to
disparage. All of these are hopeful, and will doubdees
Improve with experience and the lapse of time. But
buyers must feel greater confidence in the time-keeping
of a watch from this pioneer concern, than •in one man
ufactured by any of its young rivals. If any do not, we
urge them to inquire of their friends who have bought
and carried the, American Watch. Every purchaser may
have a guaratee, if he will, that hie watch will give en
tire satisfaction
So constant and signal have been the improvements in
machinery at the Waltham manufactory, that the &Tr-
pany have not only been enabled to make better and
better Watches, but they now sell them fur fewer dol ars
in greenbacks than they cost in gola before the war
But they wish no one to buy their Watches because of
their cheanness. They commend them as better time
keepers than any other which are or can be sold at prices
so moderate. They a-k parehasers not to be persuaded
by importunate dealers, who may be governed by consid
orations of profit into buying %vetches of doubtful aeon
racy, when, by buying a Waltham, they may be sure o
getting a gist-rate tite.e keeper at a moderate price

1. That the quality of the MASON & HAMLIN OR
GAN is the VERY MST is not questioned by unpreju
diced and well-informed persons: These organs have
uniformly been awarded the highest premiums at Indus
trial. Exhibitions to the number of seventy-flve, includ
ing the FIRST-CLA.SS MEDAL at the PARIS EXPOsI
TION. They are recommended as the standard of excel
lence, the best, by several hundred of the most eminent
musicians in Anlerica and Europe, whose testimony is
printed, and will be sent to any one desiring it.
2. It is thefiied policy of the MASON & RAMLIN OR
GAN COMPANY to sell their organs always at the least
remunerative profit. They are now very much the ler•
gest manufacturers of these instruments in the world.
With increase of business they have been able to make
corresponding increase and improvement in machinery
and facilitio- for manufacture, by means of which they
are now producing yet more perfect work than ever be
fore, and this at increased economy in cost. According.
ly they are now selling the best organs they have ever
made at prices which are as low, or even less that. of. old
bathe cost of manufacture of inferior instruments with
out the advantage of such facilities.
