POMS YOUR WATCH ami , A Watch is intended to tell you the time of day. Unless it does this ac curately it is worse than useless, for it is like the man you cannot depend upon. Many a man has $25 or $30 tied tied up in a watch which is worth less when if he would invest a dollar or two for having it repaired he would get the full value out of it. Often a watch which does not keep proper time needs regulating* for which we make . no charge. If it needs repairing our charges are more than reasonable, and our work is guaranteed. G. L.
