Excerpt from Watchmaker's and Jeweler's Practical Hand Book: A Reliable Compendium of Valuable Receipts and Suggestions, Carefully Selected From Private Formulae, and the Best Authorities

My aim has been to present to my readers the most improved processes of doing work, and at the same time to make myself understood, and this informa tion has been compiled from many and various sources. Many of the tools and processes described have been common in watch factory work for many years, but are comparatively unknown to the average watch repairer at the bench. Much of this informa tion has cost the watch factories of the United States thousands of dollars to acquire, through the pay ment of large salaries and the building of experi mental tools and machinery.

With these few remarks the author leaves this little volume to speak for itself and trusts that every reader may find something of value within its covers to compensate him for his time in perusing it and the small outlay in its purchase.
