Part 3
So perfect is the machinery used in making this Watch, and so exact are all its parts, that if it needs repairs, if sent direct to the factory, the charge for actual repairs (including parts used) never exceeds 50 cents. This will explain why they are so cheap and so easily repaired.
A FEW TESTIMONIALS--THOUSANDS MORE COULD BE GIVEN.
[From Thomas A. Edison, Electrician, New York, February 10, 1885.]
"I have used the Waterbury Watch for some time and find that it is the only one which will keep reasonably perfect time when used around powerful dynamo machines."
The New York _Tribune_ says: "It is remarkable how quickly the Waterbury Watch has stepped into popular favor. No doubt, the secret of its instant success has been the fact of its excellence. No amount of advertising could push into favor a poor article. The Waterbury Watch is good and cheap."
"I have carried a Waterbury for over a year and find it a most excellent time-keeper. It has run beside a $100 gold watch without showing the least variation."--F. G. PERRY, Wakefield, R. I.
"My Waterbury after three years' trial continues to give satisfaction, and is now going as good as when I received it. At four o'clock daily we receive the time over our wire, and my watch is always prompt to the minute."--A. S. LETTS, Pennsylvania Railroad, Jersey City.

Parson Wilder Calls on Mrs. Puffy.
By Neil Burgess.
[Illustration]
"It did my soul good," said Mrs. Puffy, "to see old Parson Wilder come in, the dear old soul; he looked as smiling as a basket of chips, and it was a nice morning, the sun shining right into our setting-room; and, as luck would have it, I'd just got all cleaned up and had put on a clean calico and white apron, and, if I do say it, I looked as slick as a whistle; and our garden--well, you'd oughter to seen it--a mass of posies and blossoms everywhere; and as it had rained in the night everything was as fresh as a cowcumber. 'Well, well!' says the parson, 'this is a picture one could never forget,' and he looked at my floor and kitchen-table; they were both white as snow, and my milk-pans--well you could just see your face in 'em, and everything was as neat as a pink.
[Illustration]
"I cut him a pie and got him a pitcher of milk, cause I could see he was powerful hungry, and when he got filled up he commenced: 'Cleanliness is next to Godliness; now,' says he, 'what makes this home look so bright and pure as the lily?' Says I 'It's Sapolio.'
[Illustration]
"'How?' says he, putting his hand to his ear, 'cause he's a little deaf. 'Sapolio!' I yelled in his ear. 'No,' says he, 'no; it's virtoo, moral virtoo, that's er shining through it all,' and he kept that up till supper time, and stayed and eat a big supper (I'm afraid they ain't er feeding the old man as well up to his house as they oughter); and after he had gone hum, I couldn't help thinking, as I looked at my floor, table, pans and etceterer, that it may be moral virtoo shining through 'em, _but it takes Sapolio to fetch it out!_"
If your grocer does not keep Sapolio he can order it for you from any wholesale grocer in the United States.
What is Sapolio?
It is a solid, handsome cake of scouring soap, which has no equal for all cleaning purposes, except the laundry.
What will Sapolio do? Why, it will clean paint, make oil cloths bright. You can scour the knives and forks with it, and make the tin things shine brightly.
The wash basin, the bath tub, even the greasy kitchen sink, will be as clean as a new pin if you use SAPOLIO.

For washing the hair only the very best soap and pure water should be used.
The average soap contains too much free alkali, which draws the natural oil from the hair and scalp, and leaves the former dry and lusterless while it roughens the latter, causing scurf or dandruff.
The purity and mildness of the Ivory Soap gives it pre-eminence for cleaning the hair and scalp. It contains no free alkali, so its use insures a clean and healthy head of hair of the luster and softness of silk.

If your grocer does not keep the Ivory Soap, send six two-cent stamps, to pay the postage, to Procter & Gamble, Cincinnati, and they will send you _free_ a large cake of IVORY SOAP.]

PEARS' SOAP
THE FAMOUS ENGLISH
COMPLEXION SOAP.
HIS OPINION OF PEARS' SOAP
If Cleanliness is next to Godliness, Soap must be considered as a Means of Grace and a Clergyman who recommends moral things should be willing to recommend Soap. I am told that my commendation of Pears' Soap has opened for it a large sale in the United States. I am willing to stand by every word in favor of it that I ever uttered. A man must be fastidious indeed who is not satisfied with it.

A SPECIALTY FOR THE SKIN & COMPLEXION,
As recommended by the greatest English authority on the Skin,
PROF. SIR ERASMUS WILSON, F. R. S.
Pres. of the Royal Col. of Surgeons, England.
Nothing adds so much to personal appearance as a =Bright, Clear Complexion and a Soft Skin=. With these the plainest features become attractive. Without them the handsomest are but coldly impressive.
_Many a complexion is marred by impure alkaline and Colored Toilet Soap._
PEARS' SOAP
Is specially prepared for the delicate skin of ladies and children and others sensitive to the weather, winter or summer. In England it is pre-eminently the complexion Soap, and is recommended by all the best authorities, as, on account of its emollient, non-irritant character, =Redness, Roughness and Chapping are prevented, and a clear and bright appearance and a soft, velvety condition imparted and maintained, and a good, healthful and attractive complexion ensured=.
Its agreeable and lasting perfume, beautiful appearance, and soothing properties commend it as the greatest luxury of the toilet. Its durability and consequent economy is remarkable.
