THE GREATEST SANITARY IMPROVEMENT OF THE AGE!!! 
LEAD-KNCASED BLOCK-TIN PIPE. 
This article has now been in use for the past four years, and is daily growing' in public favor, being heartily indorsed by 
all the leading chemists and physicians in the country, also the Water Commissioners of New York 
Brooklyn, and Boston. In addition to the plumbing uf houses, it is largely used for conveying water 
from distant springs; for cooling water by means of coils of pipe In refrigerators. ]t Is almosr univer- 
sally used by the makers of Beer and Cider Pumps and also for Soda Fountains and Mineral Waters ■ 
In fret, wherever purity and safety to health are desirable. Water flows through this pipe as pure as if 
drawn through silver. Our recent improvements in the manufacture insure a most perfect article 
which cannot fail to be fully appreciated. The advantages of lead pipe with a perfectly pure block- 
tin lining for the conveyance of water is well understood; it gives the full pliability ol Hie Lead 
with tti.' pureness of the tin. The resisting power of Block-Tin being about five times greater than 
lead, we are enabled to furnish a pipe stronger than Lead, one-half its weight, at about tie same 
cost per running foot. For strength, flexibility, durability, facility of bending and making perfectly 
tight joints, this pipe isespeciallyrecommcnded. To furnish cost per foot give" the head or pressure of water and bore o'f 
pine. cotWKLLS. SHAW & WILLARD MFG. CO., foot WeBtTwenty-Sevcntti-st., North River, and No. 11 Barcliry-st.,

K. Ogdcn Doremns, M. D., Professor of Chemistry and Toxicology in the New York Bellevne Hospital .Medical Ccllege, 
and Professor of Chemistry and Phvsics in the College of the City of New York, writes : '• There can be no quest ion us to 
the poisonous nature of lead when Introduced into the human system; and as it may gain entrance so insidiously, and fraxn 
such a variety of sources, it has been a great desideratum to obtain an inert substitute tor the conveving of liquids, vlueh 
should be pure, flexible, cheap, strong, durable, and easily worked. By your ingenious invention of a pipe of Block-Tin. sur- 
rounded, strengthened. and protected by a thick coating of lead, all the valuable qualities of Block-Tin are obtained, and oil 
objection to the use of lead removed. All points considered, I esteem your Lead-Encased Block-Tin Pipe superior to that 
made of Lead, Iron, Galvanized Iron, Block-Tin aloue, or any other variety of Pipe I am familiar with." 
J-rom the American Agriculturist. 
"SAFE PIPE FOR DRINKING "WATER.— Lead poisoning, from water brought In lead pipe, is the often unsuspected 
cause of disease and death Galvanized iron pipe, wood and cement pipe, are. expensive and inconvenient substances, so 
that people will risk their lives and use lead. I'he Lead-encased Block-tin Pipe is even cheaper than lead, and we believe 
perfectly safe. Our faith in it has led us recent ly to lay some eighty feet of It, through which all our drinking water is drawn."
