A FEW REASONS WHY THE AMERICAN WATCH IS THE BEST. It is made on the best principle, while the for eign watch is generally made on no principle at all. The foreign watch is mostly made by women and boys, BY IIAND . While their labor is cheap, their work is dear at any price. Such watches are made without plan, and sold without guarantee. They are iireguiar in construction, and quite as irregular in movement. They are designed only to sell, and the buyer is the party most thoroughly sold. Those who have kept "ancres," "lepines," and "Swis3 le vers," in professed repair for a few years will ap preciate the truth of our statement. THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH. Instead of being made of several hundred little pieces, screwed together, the body of the American Watch is formed of SOLID PLAI'ES. No jar in terferes with the harmony of its working, and no sudden shock can throw its machinery out of gear. In riding or any business pursuit, it is all held to gether as firmly as a single piece of metal, ft is just what all machinery should he— -Ist. ACCURATE. 2d. SIMPLE. 3d. STRONG, lib. ECONOMICAL. We not only secure CHEAPNESS by our system, but QU ALII V. We do not pretend that our Watch can be bought for less money than the foreign male bslievsa, but that for its real value it is sold for one half the price. OUR SOLDIER'S WATCH (named Wm. Ellery) is what its name indicates—Solid, Substantial, and always Reliable—warranted to stand any amount of Marching, Riding or fighting. OUR NEXT HIGHER QUALITY OF WATCH (named P. S. Bartlett) is similar in size and general appearance, but has more jewels, and a more elab orate finish. OL'K LADIES' WATCH, recently brought out, is put up in a great variety of patterns, many of them ot rare beauty and w\ rxmanship, is quite small, but warranted to ieep time. OUR YOUNGGENTLEMAN'S WATCH is neat, not large, and just the thing for the pocket ol Young America. THE PROOF of the merits of our Watch may be found in the fact that we now employ over sev en hundred workmen in our factories, and that we are still unable tosuppiy the constantly increasing demand. OUR THREE QUARTER PLATE WATCH is thinner and lightei than the others we have descri bed. Its fine chronometer balance is delicately ad justed to correct the variation caused by changes of temperature. These watches are the fruits of the latest experiments in chronometry, and are made by our best workmen, in a separate depart ment of our factory. For the finest time-keeping qualities they challenge comparison with the best works of the most famous English and Swiss ma kers.

The first letter of their value is yet scarcely appreciated. When they are better known sudden death and con tinued sickness will be of the past. Let those who know them speak right out in their favor. It is a duty which will save life. Our race are subject to a redundancy of vitiated bile at this season, and it is as dangerous as it is prevalent, but Brandreth's Pills afford an invaluable and efficient protection. By their occasional use we prevent the collection ol those impurities, which when in sufficient quantities, cause so much danger to the body's health. They soon eura iiyer com plaint, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, pain in the head, heart-burn, pain in the breu-4-bone, sudden faint ness and costiveness. Sold by H. C.
