Watches
It's all right to have faith in
your watch—in fact there's
small reasoq for carrying a
watch in which you•can't have
faith. But first get a reliable
watch ; buy it at a safe store.
We guarantee our watches and
we tell you the facts about
them. There's a wide range
of choice, and your safety is
made doubly sure because the
sale isn't settled till you are
