at prices that place accurate timekeeper? aud beau
tiful ornaments within the reach of all. The Con
stitution wishes to have it understood that It
enters this field entirely for the benefit of fts sub
■cribers; that it keeps no watches in stock; tb*t it
guarantees everything to be as represented, and that
the prices are lower man the lowest yet on record.
The fame of Waltham and Elgin watches is not
confined to the United States, but it has lonk been
an object of ambition abroad to own one of these
almost perfect pieces of mechanism. The sale of
these watches is Jealouslv guarded bv one of the
most powerful trusts in this trust ridden country,
and the prices at which the watches are Hupposed
to be sold are 76 per cent, to HK> per cent, higher
than those charged by The Weekly Constitution.
The Constitution can get any watch,
from the lowest price to the highest, but entirely

New Waltham nov«inent—Olfler No. 4010
A S2OO solid gold Watch cannot be bought for

Watch under the above number that has all the
appearance, aud most of the good qualities, of a
S2OO Wa'ch. You nave never seen a Watch like
this, and your jeweler has not either, although
the works’Bfe familiar to any jeweler, so that in
case of accident there would De no trouble in

celebrated Waltham Riverside model, in which
the two nickel winding wheels are plaluly seen.
The case U the thinnest tilled watch case ever |
made. Remember, we moan that the Watch j
when closed in the pocket is thin. The lids of the (
case are the usual thickness, abd form a perfect |
protection for the movement. It will not take up ,
HLUOh reoni in the pocket. This case is made of a
plate of fine composition metal over which two
hegvy shbote of g<«i drewn, making a case

warranted for 28 years. A written guarantee
accompanies each Watch. Every part which is
•tfbfffdwatd-constant’wear, such as the ring, thumb
piece, joint plugs, hinges, etc., Is of solid gold.
The works are especially recommended where the
rnofit accurate time is required. This is just the
watch for doctors, lawyers, clergymen, and all
others who wish a fvrst-class article. As a present,
it cannot be excelled. It ts so thin and convenient
in form that It will 4ven make a u«od and satisfac
tory ladies’ watch, and it is especially recommended
fdr sehooi-teaohers and other profeMi©nal women

no watch made especially for ladies.

Common Sense Business Education.
It is rare indeed, that classical scholar* make
successful business men; and if we stop and thiak,
this is not to be wondered at. Their education is
carried beyond commercial pursuits hence their
minds are diverted from the essential point, and
not in any wav concentrated on business princi
ples. The all-important branch of commercial
education is every-day, practical book-keeping
net simply keeping aoeounts, but the genuine art
of showing bow every branch of business, speaks, as
It were, for itseii. Allow reason to think, a-sd we
will readily see that it is not possible to coasist
ently, or even justly, expect successful training
from tho methodical bookkeeping taught by
school teachers, void as they are, of common
practical experience.
There is not a work in print at the present time,
outside ef Macnair s Self-Instructor, which has a
right to ueurp the title Self-Instructor positively
without tba aid of & teacher, and it is this fact
which prompted the author to produce this val

we guarantee the work to be just as represented—

Our Work for the Wluter.
Thk Constitution offers to Its readers
the most elaborate variety of news and spe
cial matter to be found in any newspaper
published in the South. It will be better this
year than ever before, for we have never been
in a position to offer our subscribers such a
complete servioe as now. Read what we
offer in the way of special features.
Kev. T. DeTFltt Tnlmage.
Dr. Talma*re is the most famous preachor
in the world. It is estimated that five
thousand people hear, and more than two
million people read every sermon he preach
es. The Constitution, by special arrange
ment with the great preacher, prints fho ser
mon that he delivers on Sunday in The
Weekly Constitution, published the next
morning. The Constitution is the only
Southern paper that does this, and the only
one that followed Dr. Talmage to Europe
and printed the sermons that he delivered in
England. The-e sermons are all non-socta
risn, but are full of the comfort and faith of
Christianity, and are read in hundreds of
thousands of homes every week.
BUI Arp.
This famous philosopher, who has estab
lished a reputation throughout the world,
will furnish a letter to The Constitution
every week. His name is a by-word at every
Southern fireside, and his wonderful literary
genius has perpetated his renown wherever
he is read. He has in view a series of letters
on topics of special interest to every reader,
and this feature alone will be worth the sub
scription price to The Weekly Constitu
tion.
targe Plankett.
Who that has read The Weekly Consti
tution does not know of Sarge Plunkett, the
quaint philosopher who has worked his way
to the front in the field of literature, and Who
divides honors with Bill Arp. Plunkett will
fcrlte regularly for The Constitution, and
will talee his customary place at the fireside
of every subscriber during the coming winter.
Joel Cfaandler Harris.
Made famous throughout the world by his
“Uncle Remus” sketches, and by his various
books and charming short, stories, will write
regularly for The Constitution, and his
delightful pen will administer regularly to the
wants and pleasure of hundreds and thous
ands of people in the South who have become
attached to him.
FRANK L. STANTON, the Poet Laureate
erf the South, is regularly in The Constitu
tion’s employ, and will occupy a oolumn
every week in his short sketches, his humor
ous and pathetic verses, and his abundant
vein of good humor will he found ever flow

stitution.

on The Constitution for the past ten years
has made his name famous in the literary
field of the South, will contribute regularly

been engaged, and the selection has been
made from ihe very best that this country and
Europe affords.
The Best Religious Writers have been en
gaged to write for people who like to read
non-sectarian religious matter. The best ag
riculturalists will write for the farmers, and
the best writers who make a specialty of
Womans’ Work will be beard from every
week in the Womans’ Department of The
Constitution. The Children will be spe
cially looked afteT, and the department which
has been for years devoted to them will show
great improvement this year over the past
on account of new features for which we have
arranged.
Til* Vomui’ Kingdom.
Mrs. William King, who is known as
“Aunt Susie,” to more children in the South
than any other woman, will continue in
charge of the Womans’ Kingdom and the
Boys’ and Girls’ department, and will make
these two interesting features of the paper
more attractive than ever.
The Farm and Farmer*’ Department.
This will be under the immediate supervi
sion of Col. M. V. Moore, who has had charge
of it for many months and who is recognized
as one of the best authorities on agricultural
matters in the South. He has arrangad with
the Alabama Experiment Station for constant
reference to its reports and the progress of
its observations, and is also in close touch
witß the Georgia Experimeat Station and all
of the leading agricultural authorities in the
South. Two or three columns will be devot
ed every week to the Question Department
of the farmers, in which any question relating
to the farm will he answered.
Political Politics!! Politics Ml
This is a season of politics, and the devel
opments of the next few months will interest
every man, woman and child in America.
A new president is to be inaugurated on the
4th of March, 1893, and from now until that
time every patriotic citizen of America should
keep posted about the political developments
of the day. You cannot do without The
Constitution. Its reports will be perfectly
fair and impartial, and it will seek first and
above all things to print the news without
political bias or partisan prejudice. It is of
course s democratic newspaper, and will con
tend for democratic principles; but it recog
nizes the fact that its news columns belong to
the people and that they are entitled to a full
and fair report of all news matters. You can
find iu The Constitution what is going on
in all the parties, and you can therefore be in
a better position to judge for yourself on the
great public questions of the day.

money in working for The Constitution.

do without it, and its weekly visits bring
cheer and comfort to nearly one million
readers. It goes into 156,000 homes, and is
passed around from neighbor to neighbor,

by nearly a million people.
