"It's time you owned a Waltham"
The Watch for the Boy Scout as well as for the veteran. The boy of today doesn't want a clock watch bought in a notion store at the price of a toy. He wants an accurate watch bought from a jeweler--one he can take pride in and one that teaches him to respect time. An accurate time-piece, like scouting, cultivates habits of precision and punctuality.
WALTHAM
Watches are noted time-keepers in every grade. There are moderate priced Waltham watches that keep perfect time. Even low priced Walthams maintain wonderful records for accuracy. The pride of owning a watch of the world-wide reputation of Waltham, adds immensely to any boy's happiness.
Send for Descriptive Booklet of Waltham Movements or Ask Your Jeweler.

There is no "pull" or strain on any part, the suit fits smoothly and comfortably and allows free action of the whole body.
Only four buttons on the whole garment, and they are so well sewn that not even the most strenuous boy is apt to pull them off.

Mr Corsan's book stands with the best, of which there are few, as a most complete work."--CHARLES M. DANIELS, Champion swimmer of the United States, in the Playground.
From Youth Into Manhood.
WINFIELD S. HALL. M. D., Professor of Physiology. Northwestern University

--Professor G. WALTER FISKE, Oberlin.
Life Questions of High School Boys
J. W. JENKS. Cloth, 40 cents; paper, 25 cent. The distinguished Cornell Professor has given here brief discussions of Habit, Cheating, Societies, etc., in a way that starts the boy thinking in the right direction.
The boy has the brain and the will, he doesn't need anybody to think for him or to decide for him. He needs to be guided into right ways of thinking and deciding for himself. This book is such a guide. It simply says, Here are two ways--which do you think is right. Very well, do that.
