I didn't get a Watch!
Everything but what he wanted. But what he wanted most he didn't get.
When you think that a watch is one of the few tilings to give your boy that will last more than a year or two, you'll think it the best present after all.
Every boy wants a watch. It's a laudable longing and ought to be gratified. Get it of Davie and you know it's good. If the boy's father wants a watch we can supply the best. Bring the whole famiiy. All goods engraved free of charge.

Roney, of this county, who is at the Fitzgerald Soldier Colony at Swan, Ga., has written from there and subscribed for the REPUBLICAN as he wants the news from old Hancock. He says the weather there now is about like May in Indiana aud the country as nice as one ever beheld. Sweet potatoes are yet in the ground. There are 5,000 Northern people there. We caution our readers here not to become too enthusiastic, but to thoroughly investigate before they move away from Indiana. There are rocky roads in all States. We know ours here and have the others to find out.

li DIFFERENCE.
Tennyson could take a worthless sheet of paper, write a poem on and make it wortn $65,000. THAT'S GENIUS.
Vanderbilt can write a few words on a sheet of paper and make it worth $5,000,000. THAT'S CAPITAL.
The United States can take an ounce and a quarter ofgold, stamp upon it. un "Ea^le Bird" and make it worth $20. THAT'S MONEY.
A mechanic can take material worth $5 and make it into watch springs worth $1,000. THAT'S SKILL.
A mei chant can take an article, worth $1 and sell it for $1.50. THAT'S BUSINESS.
Some people will go to Indianapolis to buy goodd when they can save money by trading at home. THAT'S FOOLISHNESS.
A laborer works ten hours a day for $3 per day. THAT'S LABOR.
The writer of this could write a check for $800,000, but it wouldn't be worth anything. THAT'S ROUGH.

A BIG DEAL. ON.
Streeter & Company, of Muucie, After the Bottle House. The deal between Hollweg & Rees, ownets of the Greenfield Bottle Works, aud Streeter & Co., of Muncie, seems to have been consutnated, and more than probable that factory will resume operations by the first of the year.
It does not seem to be a sale of the plant, but a five year lease, with an option on it, Messrs. Hollweg & Rees contracting to give the new firm all of their work, which will keep the plant going at least one-half of the time, and they have contracts from other parties that insure them steady work.
This will be pleasant news to the many families in Greenfield wtio have been out of work so long. It has always been, aud will, we understand, be conducted by union men.
