Excerpts from the Author's Advertisement:

A little book of so pages by a practical clock fixer, that positively teaches any one of common sense to adjust, clean, and keep in order their own clocks, it teaches you how to and what stops the [wind-up] clock and teaches you the remedy.

Clock fixing Is much easier learned than most people suppose, and none who read this book carefully ever fail to learn. It will save many times its cost in one single year.

It Is the only work of the kind ever published. Get a copy, and it will be the last money your [wind-up] clock will ever cost you.

The Editor of The American:

"I would say that the "Clock Adjuster," which I sent to you for, was promptly received, and everything was perfectly satisfactory.
Yours truly, H. K. Chaig."

In thirty years using this little book and filling orders for it, we have never had one complaint.
E. B. Grannis, Publisher
