Many, a man has. twenty-five or thirty dollars tied up in a watch which is worthless when if he would invest a dollar or two for having it repaired he would get the full value of it. Often a watch which does not keep proper time needs regulating for which we make no charge. If it needs re pairing our prices are more than reasonable, and our work is guaranteed. G. L.
