the balance-wheel of many
a watch.
The Wright Brothers had most
unsatisfactory experiences with all
1 the watches they tried in Europe
and America—until they adopted
the HOWARD.
The HOWARD Watch is
the finest practical timepiece in the
world. Its special hard-tempered steel
balance cannot jolt out of true with the
roughest service. The HOWARD ad
justment is permanent.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is fixed
_$40 to $ 150—and a printed price-ticket
attached.
\ We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you. . •
