Five Minutes
Behind Time
Some historians say the re
sult of the Battle of Waterloo
hinged on the fact that one
of Napoleon’s officers was
five minutes late in arriving
with re-inforcements. With
A Good Watch
the result might have been
otherwise. There is no ex
cuse for being 5 minutes be
hind time ON TIME is the
order of the day. It is easily
possible with a watch we sell
you, it is GUARANTEED to
lose no battles or trains for
you. They will put you where
you belong ON TIME.
