THE 
8L0BE NAIL. 
About ten years ago tlie GLOBE NAIL. COMPANY 
of Boston, put on tlie market the first pointed, polished 
mid finished Horse Shoe bails ready for driving. Previous 
lo that time all Horse Shoe Nails were pointed, and most of 
them made, by tlie slioers in their own shops at tlie rate of 
hut six pounds per day. 
Tlie (ilobe Nail was at once found to he much cheaper 
and better than any then in use. It soon became so popular 
that all manufacturers of Horse Shoe Nails were compelled 
to make their Nails to resemble the Globe. For the Iasi ten 
years it lias been tbe model. Each year tlie Nail hag been 
greatly improved in quality, and to such a point have we 
educated tbe slioers that now they will baldly use a nail un¬ 
less it is absolutely perfect. 
At tlie Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, we were 
awarded the Medal and tlie following report, far stronge. 
than that given upon any other Nail:

lies of these Nails, unite in making them of the very highest 
class of manufacture.

Gentlemen : Find enclosed advertisement and postal card 
concerning your Nail. [Referring to a scurrilous advertise¬ 
ment and postal card, disparaging tlie Globe Nail, circulated 
bv a rival manufacturer over Hie humbug signature of 
‘•Humane Society lor the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani¬ 
mals." No Society bearing that title ever existed.] As I 
take a great interest in Hie prevention of cruelty to animals, 
—horses in particular,—I desire to - ay a few words in favor 
of Tlie Globe lYa.il. Though I am not a very extensive 
Horse Slioer, yet I have used enough Nails of tlie different 
makes to speak knowingly. I have used tlie Globe Nail in 
my shop and on tlie l ace track for six years, on all classes of 
horses, from the heavy draft horse to Hie tender footed run¬ 
ning horse: and I can salelv sav it has no superior in 
point of Toughness, Shape, and Finish, if it has 
any equal, i have used about filteen liumired pounds of 
Globe Nails a year for I lie last six years, anil in that, time I 
have found four Imperfect Nails, two of which I returned to 
you about two rears 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 foot, I 
would not consider It the limit of tlie Nail if tlie horse was 
lamed. If bosses would look more to tlie competency of 
their men and less to trying to get shoeing nails a few cents 
a pound cheaper, we would have fewer lame horses. I 
know for safety and durability, with 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 ill my shop hr 
using tlie Glolie Nail. As long as it is made as at present, 1 
shall continue to use it, even if I could get other Nails for 
nothing. 1 consider it tlie safest Nail that was ever driven 
In a horse’s foot. 
Yours Very Respectfully, 
(Signed,) P. H. O’NEILL.
