PRICE $150 to $200. 
The “Model” is a beautiful little Upright or Cottage 
piano; it is manufactured from the best materials that can 
be procured ; the workmanship is excellent, audits durabili¬ 
ty is guaranteed; it is small, light, and occupies but little 
roonij is easily transported, and above all the. “Model” is 
sold at about one-third the price that is usually paid for any 
•other reliable piano. For the above reasons, it is very suit¬ 
able for people of moderate means, and those living in small 
houses; but it is especially adapted for beginners, and on 
account of its low price, commends itself to every parent, 
because it possesses all ihe principal features of the finest 
piano, and has none of the numerous disadvantages of the 
reed organ.

GLOBE NAIL. 
MIL EVER Mill. 
About ten years ago the GLOBE NAIX. COMPANY 
of Boston, put on the market the first pointed, polished 
and finished Horse Shoe Nails ready for driving. Previous 
io that time all Horse Shoe Nails were poiuted, and most of 
them made, by the slioers in their own shops at the rate of 
but six pounds per day. 
The Globe Nail was at once found to be much cheaper 
and better than any then in use. It soon became so popular 
that all manufacturers oi Horse Shoe Nails were compelled 
to make their Nails to resemble the Globe. For the last ten 
years it lias been the model. Each year the Nail has been 
greatly improved in quality, and to such a point have we 
educated the slioers that now they will hardly use a nail un¬ 
less it is absolutely perfect.

awarded the Medal and the following report, far stronger 
than that given upon any other Nail:

Horse Shoe Nails, Pointed, Polished, and Finished. The 
uniformity in size, smoothness of finish, hardness and tenaci¬ 
ty of the iron, closeness of fibre, and excellence of the head 
and point, the tensile strength of bodv, and riveting proper¬ 
ties of these Nails, unite in making them of the very highest 
class of manufacture.

St. Louis, Mo., June 8, 1877. 
Globe Nail Co., Boston, Mass. 
Gentlemen: Find enclosed advertisement and postal card 
concerning your Nail. [Referring to a scurrilous advertise¬ 
ment and postal card, disparaging the Globe Nail, circulated 
bv a rival manufacturer over the humbug signature of 
“Humane Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani¬ 
mals.” No Society bearing that title ever existed.] As I 
take a great interest in the prevention of cruelty to animals, 
—horses in particular,—! desire to say a few words ill favor 
of The Globe Nail. Though I am not a very extensive 
Horse Slioer, yet I have used enough Nails of the different 
makes to speak knowingly. I have used the Globe Nail in 
my shop and on the race track for six years, on all classes of 
horses, from the heavy draft horse to the tender footed run¬ 
ning horse: and 1 can safely say it has no.snperior in 
point of Toughness, Shape, and Finish, if it has 
any equal. I have used about filteen hundred pounds of 
Globe Nails a year for the last six years, and In that time 1 
have found four imperfect Nails, two of which I returned to 
you about two vears ago and received in return four perfect 
ones, for which accept my thanks. If my men had no better 
sense, than to drive those imperfect Nails in a horse’s loot, 1 
would not consider it. the fault of the Nail if the horse was 
lamed. If bosses would look more to the competency of 
their men and less to trying lo get shoeing nails a few cents 
a pound cheaper, we would have fewer lame horses. I 
know for safety and durability, witl! a man 
who understands his business to drive them, 
your Nails can’t be beat. ! 1 am willing to pay, with¬ 
out any suit, for all horses that are lamed in my shop by 
using tiie Globe Nail. As long as it is made as at present, 1 
shall continue to use it. even if I could get other Nails lor 
nothing. I consider it the safest Nail that was ever driven 
in a horse’s foot. 
Yours Very Respectfully, 
(Signed.) P. H. (PNEILL.
