BRITAIN : DENMARK Pe HOLLAND | ce age GERMANY BELGIUM Se UNITED MERICANS little realize how far-reaching are some of their familiar home industries. Take the Ingersoll watch for example. Foreign peoples are quick to seize upon its superior time-keeping qualities at such insignificant cost. Relatively it is but a few years since Switzerland supplied America with its watches. ‘Today the stream flows in the other direction. Germany produces so-called watches which sell as low as sixty cents there. But even their watches which sell at several times that price are mere play-things in comparison with the Ingersoll when it comes down to real time-keeping. In England, Germany, Belgium, Denmark and other European countries, the Ingersoll watch is fast gaining supremacy with those keen, thrifty nations by whom the value of money is appreciated. Ingersoll emissaries travel South Africa, India, Australia-‘and other distant parts. The Ingersoll is truly “watching the world” because no other watch can with- stand the great practical utility and superior value of this wonder of American mechanical genius. And at home in America you buy the Ingersoll cheaper than any other place on earth. Booklet free. Sold in the United States by 60,000 dealers. ROBT. H. INGERSOLL & BRO.
