MORE JUBILEE SENTIMENTS.

Intelligent Teats.

The Principal of the College of Science and Arts, Glasgow, Prof. Jamison, A.M., Inat. C.E , F.R.S.E., writes :—" Five weeks ago I got from you a Waterbury Watch, and having been previously annoyed by my lever watch stopping and keeping bad time whenever I went near dynamo machines, 1 inserted the Waterbury Watch betweon the magnetic poles of a ten horse power dynamo. Of course the watch in stantly stopped, but on being started again I regulated ib only twice within two days, and have found that for one whole month it did nob vary two miuutes from correct (Ireeuwicb time. I now prefer it to my former and much more expensive watch, and consider iban excellent timekeeper."

" The Watorbury Watch Co

"Gentlemen, — 1 have great pleasure in -bearing testimony to the exceptionally good qualities of the Waterbury Watch. JTor the last few weeks I have carried one of these Watches,' and am now thoroughly convinced, of its value as a reliablo lime keeper. It> is not a'mere toy, as the price would seem to indicate', but a strong, dur able .article. As a proof of this I may state thab a day or two ago'l "was outriding, when my horse took fright and threw me lieavily against the saddle, which came in contact with the' * Waterbury' in my pocket. The violence" of the "concussion would have broken an ordinary gold or silver watch, and of cbiirseX expected to find id smashed, bub was surprised to find ib had »iob sustained any derangement whatever. I cao with conlidencc recommend it) to all re quiring a stvong, accurate watch for si little nionoy.

" Yours faitlifnlly, •VWAI,TELv DENOATE."

" F nave carried a ' Watetbury ' for the laßb thtco wccUs, ancMiaye compared it with other timepieces with tho roost satisfactory results. It liaa rkopb excellent time. In lacti, hud J ffiveu tour or five pounds for an ordinary silver watch, it could not have been more accurate. In appearance it is all thab can be deaired, and auy ons ignorant of its cost.'luiglib misbake ib for am article costing JO times as much. 1 would advise all those in scorch of a cheap, strong limo- Iceepor to purchase a Watorbury Watch.

" Vsssar College, N.Y U " Waterbury Watch Go. "Gentlemen,—Allow me to take this opportunity of expressing my admiration for the excellence of this simple and inex pensive watch, ib keeps better time than a silver watch in our house, which cost seven times as much. Each of my boys carry one of these watches with great satisfaction.— YoUraVerytri^VM.B,DWrGHT, " Professor of Natural History, •' Vassar College."
