THE WATCH OF TEE AGE. WONDERFUL WATERBURY. The prize of £1 recently offered by the Waterbury Watch Company, in South Australia, for the best pun on the watch of the age, has been awarded to "Giles Scroggins " for the following lines :— While ChafFey Brothers water raise. To muke poor men's hearts merry ; Another firm gains equal praiao j Which does its Water-bury. | When Chalfey's fame is dearl and Rone , (Some deem their schome'd romauticj I • A faithful watch will still tick on, From o'er the broad Atlantic.

" A man who stole a Waterbury Watch from a poor labourer the other day was fined and locked up by the Magistrates, horsewhipped by the watchmaker when he came out, and afterwards nearly hurried into a brain fever by his wife. The clergy man of the parish allnded to the little affair in a sermon, and the local editor, for a wonder, agreed with the parson and re viewed the occurrence in print. All this time it wns borne in upon the wretched man that he could have bought the watch from any storekeeper for 13s 6d, and have had it repaired any time at a cost of 2s 6d.
