 SOLON THORNTON, PRINTER, 21 SCHOOL STREET. 
 
 1870. 
 

 Entered according to Act of Congress, in the Year 1870, by 
 
 William O. Haskell & Son, 
 
 in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. 
 

 The existing order of School Furniture, now so universally 
 adopted in the best School-Houses, began with the " Ameri- 
 can School Chairs," represented in the engraving so marked 
 in the following leaves. They were the fir^^t of this series 
 of manufactures ; and though a great advance in style and 
 finish has since been ni;ide, the original principles which 
 were then relied upon to give strength and durability are 
 not only unimpaired, but with the progress of time have 
 been advanced to an extent nearly if not quite approaching 
 perfection. 
 
 Previous to the advent of the present order, school- 
 houses were furnished by such carpenters or cabinet-makers 
 as chose to undertake the contracts, no matter how limited 
 their ideas as to the comfort and health of pupils, or how 
 inadequate their conception of a proper gradation of sizes, 
 according to the ages of scholars. The primeval School 
 Furniture of which we have accounts, consisted of a bench 
 with legs long at one end and short at the other. The 
 large scholars sat upon the higher end, and the smaller pu- 
 pils were graded down to the lower end, according to their 
 respective sizes. On this basis the School Furniture of our 
 ancestors was constructed. 
 • The "American School Chairs," the origin of the School 
 
Furniture manufacture, were invented by Mr. S. Wales, 
 Jr., the pioneer in this branch of business, with suggestions 
 from Mr. Wm. O. Haskell (then a practical chair manu- 
 facturer), in 1839, and on the ninth day of June in that 
 year, the school in the town of Chelsea, Mass., where they 
 were first put in use, commenced operations. 
 
 In 1857, Mr. Wm. O. Haskell, the senior partner of 
 the present firm, then and for many years previously a man- 
 ufacturer of settees (the original and only manufacturer of 
 settees as a specialty, having esttfblished the business in 
 1835), became the successor of Mr. Wales. The manufac- 
 ture of School Furniture he combined with his settee and 
 chair business, originating an establishment for furnishing 
 public buildings, such as school-houses, halls, church ves- 
 tries, city and town officers' rooms, railway-stations, places 
 of amusement, in short any room or building where people 
 congregate for worship, education, business, or pleasure. 
 
 Since that time there has been a rapid enlargement of the 
 variety of articles manufactured : great improvement as to 
 durability, style, and finish ; and an unfailing demand for the 
 products ; and, in order to assist committees and others in 
 their selections in the furnishing of schools and public build- 
 ings, this Catalogue has been prepared, as the only plan by 
 which to convey an approximate idea of the styles manufac- 
 tured, their variety, combinations, and uses. 
 
 Thus a brief statement indicates the origin and increase of 
 this important branch of manufactures ; but to realize its 
 actual extent, to trace its real progress, and determine the 
 amount of its usefulness, it would be necessary to follow 
 its footsteps into every State in the Union. 
 
THE 
 
 OEIGINAL BOSTON SCHOOL FURNITURE 
 
 SETTEE MANUFACTORY. 
 
 To Committees, Educational Parties, mid the Public generally : — 
 
 This establishment is the legitimate manufactory of the 
 original Boston School Furniture and Settees, as stated in 
 our intx'oduction, apd is prepared to offer the best quality of 
 work, in regard to durability, style, and finish, at the lowest 
 rates. 
 
 A glance at the resources at our command will demon- 
 strate, beyond a doubt, our ability to give satisfaction in all 
 respects. 
 
 The frontispiece of this pamphlet presents an illustration 
 of our manufactory, inadequately we fear for a proper con- 
 ception of its extent, as in order to bring the drawing 
 within the limits of one of these pages, and yet show the 
 whole, the several buildings had each to be drawn on .a 
 small scale. We will state, as a guide, that our dam is one 
 hundred and seventy-five feet long, our main shop one 
 hundred by forty-eight feet, and the other buildings, lumber- 
 house, dry-house^ office, &c., are in proportion, as drawn. 
 
 Our Factory is situated in East Lebanon, N.H., on the 
 
6- 
 
 line of the Northern Eailroad, from the main track of which 
 a spur track runs directly to our door, thus rendering our 
 freighting facilities all that could be desired. Our works 
 are run by a never-failing water-power, unsurpassed, if 
 even equalled, in New England, or elsewhere, our dam being 
 built across the actual outlet of Mascomy Lake ; a sheet of 
 water six miles long and two miles wide in its broadest part, 
 fed by the unfailing streams so numerous in the mountain 
 region of New Hampshire, ensuring an absolutely never- 
 failing supply of water. The gates of our Factory were 
 first opened for manufacturing purposes in the spring of 
 1854, and since that time the wheel has never stopped from 
 a scarcity or a surplus of water. 
 
 It will be seen that so far as motive power is concerned, 
 our commodities can be produced at a much lower cost than 
 a dependence on steam-power (taking into consideration the 
 cost of fuel and the salaries of engineers and firemen) can 
 command. 
 
 The manufactures of this establishment can be produced 
 only by first-class workmen, and such are the only ones em- 
 ployed by us. Our Factory is supplied with all the modern 
 improvements in wood-working machinery, ryany of our 
 machines having been invented expressly for the manufac- 
 ture of our products. Our proximity to several extensive 
 machine works, renders nothing lacking when an improve- 
 ment in this line is desired. 
 
 In reoard to lumber, it will, be observed that it can be 
 procured to much better advantage in the woods around us, 
 than it can possibly be obtained at the lumber yards of cities. 
 Much of the lumber consumed in our manufactures is cut by 
 
us in the woods, and our freighting facilities enable us to 
 obtain other lumber from the various nnll%in this section at 
 a great advantage, while our facilities for freighting western 
 lumber, are, owing to our superior railroad connections, un- 
 surpassed. To this we may add, that purchasing all our 
 supplies, both for our Factory and in Boston, directly from 
 the manufacturers for casK, we are enabled to give our cus- 
 tomers the benefit that obviously arises from this system. 
 
 With the aid of these advantages, combined with a prac- 
 tical business experience of half a century, we are now 
 manufacturing extensively a variety of articles, some idea of 
 which may be gathered from this pamphlet. 
 
 In the following pages will be found a description of the 
 styles in favor, illustrated by numerous Engravings ; also 
 Engravings of school-rooms of various sizes and plans, 
 indicatino; the best method of arranging new furniture. The 
 Engravings have been executed with care, and may be relied 
 on as truthful representations ; it is proper to say, however, 
 that ftll well finished articles will far exceed in beauty the 
 best efforts to represent them without coloring. 
 
 Every article from this Establishment will have our name 
 thereon, and will be warranted. 
 
 Inquirers after goods in our line ai*e invited to visit our 
 warerooms and examine specimens set up, as in actual use. 
 
 Further information will be promptly communicated, on 
 application, by mail or otherwise.

 For the convenience of strangers and others unacquainted 
 with our locality, we have prepared the accompanying map 
 of the vicinity of Haymarket Square, a reference to which 
 will enable all comers to find us readily. Our close prox- 
 imity to all the Railroads running north and east from 
 Boston will be noticed. Horse cars to and from Charles- 
 town, Chelsea, Lynn, Somerville, and Medford, also the 
 southern portion of Boston, are continually passing through 
 Haymarket Square. Scollay's Building, the Tremont House, 
 and Bowdoin Square, the depots of Railway lines to South 
 Boston, Dorchester, Brookline, Jamaica Plain, the " South 
 End," "St. James," "Boston Highlands," and the different 
 sections of Cambridge, are respectively from five to ten 
 minutes walk from our office, through Sudbury and Court 
 Streets.

 MATERIALS. 
 
 We manufacture desks of various kinds of wood : birch, 
 oak, cherry, ash, black walnut, maple, beech, butternut, &c. ; 
 but for all practical uses of ordinary School Furniture, we 
 consider Mountain Birch (hetula lento) the best lumber ever 
 grown ; and, unless otherwise ordered, our desks are made 
 from this material. This birch is as hard as any wood that 
 can be used, and the closeness and beauty of its grain allow 
 a handsome finish more closely resembling mahogany than 
 any other wood can be finished. Mountain birch has the 
 nature of mahogany, with which it is classed by scientific 
 men. (See Wood & Bache's U.S. Dispensatory, p. 1379, 
 where it is spoken of as mountain mahogany, cherry birch, 
 &c.) From the surface of this wood, owing to the closeness 
 of its grain, a drop of ink can be readily removed. All open 
 grained woods, as oak or ash, will absorb ink and other 
 stains, rendering their removal impossible. 
 
 Owing to its extreme hardness, the use of birch in manu- 
 facturing is difficult, except with the aid of tools adapted 
 expressly to it. Study and experience have taught us the 
 most advantageous process of finishing; and, with the tools 
 and machinery of our establishment, we can offer a better 
 class of work than can be produced at the same prices by any 
 one not accustomed to working the' material. 
 
 The beauty and endming lustre of this wood recommend 
 
11 
 
 it to general favor. Like mahogany, birch contains an oil 
 which preserves the wood, causing it to look as bright for 
 all time as when first manufactured ; while cherry, maple, 
 and many others, containing saccharine matter, will, in a 
 year or two, grow dull and dead, their lustre fading away 
 completely. 
 
 Knowing the advantage of the mountain birch, we estab- 
 lished our factory in a birch-growing section, where we are 
 enabled to procure unlimited supplies at an advantage. 
 This lumber is not to be confounded with the various kinds 
 of ordinary birch ; and in purchasing birch furniture this 
 should be borne in mind, as it may save deception. We 
 can manufacture furniture of genuine mountain mahogany 
 cheaper than any other parties, and it may safely be assumed 
 th:it any other birch furniture offered at the same {)rice must 
 be of an inferior quality, although it may be represented as 
 the same. 
 
 In the higher and academical grades where Normal desks 
 are generally used, the furniture is usually manufactured 
 from oak or cherry, as older students will naturally take 
 more pride in the good appearance of their desks, and use 
 them with more care than would younger scholars. For the 
 same reason, our teachers' desks are made from these 
 materials. We are ready to manufacture from any desired 
 material at as short a notice as is consistent with first-class 
 work Orders should be given as early as possible, as the 
 longer the time taken in manufacturing, the better satisfac- 
 tion will result to all concerned. 
 
 In no part of our work do loe use inferior lumber. 
 Wherever purchasing, examine the desk you are to buy, and 
 observe of what material the lower board or shelf is made. 
 
12 
 
 See thnt it is not chestnut, poplar, or other soft or brittle 
 wood. It will be .noticed that in all of our desks this board is 
 of rock-maple, — nothing better for the purpose could be 
 desired. 
 
 Our desks are put together by a patent dovetailing process 
 superior to any other ever invented. Specimens of the work 
 of this machine may be seen at our office, and it will be 
 noticed that it is impossible for the work to come apart. 
 
 Our chairs are made from material, and finished, to match 
 the desks. The backs are sawed and the pillars turned at 
 least a year before using, thus fully ensuring their thorough 
 seasoning. Details of the manufacture of chairs are stated 
 with engravings 1, 2, 3, and 4. 
 
 In finishing, we use the best English orange shellac and 
 copal varnish, finishing in varnish, oil, or shellac, as desired. 
 A peculiar process of filling gives our work a desirable finish 
 on open- grained woods. Our castings are made from the 
 best iron, and painted with superior black varnish, or, if 
 desired, are painted in color. Other school-furniture cast- 
 ings are often painted with an inferior coal-tar black, and 
 this compound, which would not otherwise dry, is baked on. 
 
 We have various patterns of castings, but present in this 
 pamphlet only those styles which are in favor, and are con- 
 sidered the most suitable to the purpose. Ornamental work 
 on castings of this kind is undesirable, as it catches dust, and 
 is difficult to keep clean, and protuberant points tear the 
 clothing of the scholars. In discarding many highly orna- 
 mental styles, however, we preserve enough of ornament to 
 give the work a beauty of finish free from the objections 
 stated. '

 The following pages exhibit all the improved styles of 
 School Furniture, united in a great variety of combinations, 
 suited to the wants of public and private schools, academies, 
 &c. ; and whether it be the comfort and health of pupils, ele- 
 gance of style and finish, adaptation to its object, durability 
 and economy, or all these qualities in one, that is sought for, 
 the object can be attained by a judicious selection frona this 
 establishment. 
 
 N.B. — Orders for any of our manufactures, from parties 
 at a distance, will be executed and forwarded with the same 
 fidelity and promptness, and the same satisfaction guaranteed 
 in all respects, as if given in person.

 THE AMERICAN SCHOOL CHAIR. 
 
 This EnOTavino; is from the illustrated cataloa;ue of Mr. 
 Wales, (the originator of the School Furniture business,) 
 published in 1850. It is the original pattern as invented by 
 Messrs. Wales and Haskell in 1839, as stated in our preface, 
 and what we remark there we repeat in this place, that this is 
 a representation of the Original School Furniture, the 
 first invented as such in this country. The Engraving is 
 here inserted to show the contrast between the Furniture of 
 that day and of this. At the time of their invention these 
 chairs were regarded as the beau ideal of durability and 
 symmetry. Compare them with those represented by En- 
 gravings No. 3 and 4 and observe whether progress has been 
 made. Observe that the posts, seats, and backs are perfectly 
 square and flat.

 No. 2. 
 
 TEWKSBURY CHAIRS. 
 
 No. 1. The Engraving represents one of a series of three 
 sizes, corresponding with the first three sizes, as stated in our 
 schedule of heights. They are designed for scholars in Pri- 
 mary Rooms, from four years of age upwards. 
 No. 1 Chair 10 inches high. 
 
 Each chair rests upon an iron pedestal secured to the chair 
 and to the floor by screws. 
 
 No. 2. The Engraving represents the same chair as No. 1 
 in all respects, except that it has attached an ornamental iron 
 basket, a receptacle for the books of the puj)il. 
 
16 
 
 Ko. 3. 
 
 STAY CHAIR. 
 
 So called from the brace or " stay " extending from the 
 back to the floor, where it is inserted into the iron pedestal. 
 
 Compare this with the " American School Chairs " repre- 
 sented on a previous page. It will be seen that in this chair 
 the seat is symmetrically shaped, and hollowed sufficiently to 
 give comfort to the sitter. The back is curved, not enough 
 to throw the shoulders forward and contract the chest, but so 
 constructed as to expand the chest, and be comfortable to the 
 pupil. The posts or pillars are turned, instead of being 
 square, and are halved, glued, and screwed, instead of being 
 doweled to the back. And instead of being screwed to the 
 seat, as is the case where square pillars are used, they are 
 driven through the seat where they are glued and wedged in. 
 It will be readily understood that a square pillar, screwed to 
 the seat, the screw entering the grain of the wood endwise ^ 
 has no strength whatever compared with a turned pillar 
 slued and wedsed into the seat. 
 
17 
 
 In this chair the brace or stay is fastened into the back, 
 and enters the iron at the floor, intersecting the seat into 
 which it is joined, and fastened with glue and screws. As 
 will readily be observed, no chair can be made more durable 
 or comfortable. 
 
 The chairs correspond with the five larger sizes, as stated 
 in the schedule of heights.

 DORCHESTEE CHAIR. 
 
 The Engraving represents the " Dorchester Chair," so 
 called in compliment to the town where it was first introduced. 
 It is preferred by many to our Stay Chair. The stay is dis- 
 pensed with, but the chair, notwithstanding this omission, is 
 left strong enough for all practical purposes. 
 
 The essential difference between this and the Stay Chair is 
 difficult to express in a drawing, as it consists in the following 
 points : The back is slightly more curved. In place of the 
 stay, an ornamental centre piece, slightly bent, runs from the 
 back to the seat, to which it is joined and fastened with glue 
 and screws. The pillars are the same as in No. 3, but are 
 more nearly at right angles with the seat. This inclination 
 is compensated for by placing the chair on a pedestal having 
 a beveled top, giving more of a back slope to the seat. 
 This chair is regarded as more advantageous to the health 
 and comfort of pupils than any other. 
 
 This chair is made in all the sizes as stated in the schedule 
 of heights.

 FEAKKLIN DESKS. 
 
 The following pages contain illustrations representing the 
 "Franklin Desks," in their combinations with the chairs of 
 the various sizes. 
 
 It will be observed that each desk is placed on two orna- 
 mental irofl supports, which are designated "Franklin Stands". 
 These irons are secured to the desk and to the floor by 
 screws, holding the desk firmly. The stands are so con- 
 structed that the necessity of a brace is obviated, preventing 
 thereby some inconvenience, as a brace, when the shape of 
 the stand renders its use necessary, is liable by most methods 
 of attachment to work loose, become detached, get broken, 
 &c., to say nothing of too many pieces liable to get lost or 
 broken in transportation or setting up. It will also be noticed 
 that the chairs stand entirely independent of the desk. The 
 advantages of this principle are obvious. Where, as in the 
 old fashioned way, the scholar sits on a seat attached to the 
 desk behind him, he must necessarily create more or less jar 
 to that desk in sittino^ down or moving in his seat. If the 
 scholar behind him is writing at the time, his movements 
 are productive of injury to his companion's copy. Consider, 
 also, that when such furniture is used, the back of the pupil's 
 seat is flat and perpendicular ; a source of much discomfort 
 
20 
 
 and ill health, causing him to lean forward over his desk, thus 
 sowing the seeds of chest disease. The best way to keep a 
 pupil erect is to make his chair comfortable. 
 
 These various points cannot be too carefully considered by 
 those interested. The furniture manufactured by this Estab- 
 lishment is designed with a view to the sanitary condition of 
 the student, as well as ^is comfort and convenience, and the 
 beauty of the furniture. 
 
 Further, we would say to those about to purchase : Beware 
 of all folding up and movable rattle-trap. Everything 
 in a school-room that is not fastened permanently, will, in 
 time, work loose, make a rattling, and break down ; and all 
 order and quiet, so indispensible to every school, is at an 
 end. 
 
 School Furniture manufactured on the principles illustrated 
 in this pamphlet has stood the test of years and always given 
 satisfaction.

 Ifo. S. 
 
 PRANKLIN DESK, — TEWKSBURY CHAIR. 
 
 The Engraving represents a small single school desk, with 
 chair to correspond, adapted to one scholar. 
 
 This style is made in three sizes, numbered 1,2, and 3 re- 
 spectively, and corresponding with the first three sizes as 
 stated in the schedule of heights, and is suited to pupils from 
 four to eight years of age. 
 
 As writing is not usually taught in the lower departments, 
 these sizes are ordinarily made without ink wells. Should 
 they be desired, it should be so stated, and they will be fur- 
 nished without extra charge. 
 
 In the minds of many of our first teachers, and those inter- 
 ested in education, there is no good reason why Primary 
 pupils should not be allowed a desk as well as older students. 
 Desks are being exclusively introduced into the Primary 
 departments by all the progressive cities and towns.

 responding in every respect as to size and detail vi^ith No. 5,, 
 except that it is adapted to two scholars. 
 
 The sizes are Nos. 1,2, and 3. 
 
 The best educators have long favored the use of desks, as 
 well as chairs, in Primary Schools ; and many rooms have 
 been supplied with them, to the great satisfaction of the little 
 people, who are most interested in their use.

 FRANKLIN DESK, — STAY CHAIR. 
 
 The Engraving represents a large sized single desk and 
 chair, designed for Normal and High Schools. This desk 
 is placed on irons corresponding with sizes 7 and 8, but the f 
 extra depth of the desk makes it a trifle higher. The desk 
 is fitted with a lid hung with three hinges which are sunk to 
 a level of the lid outside. On each side of the desk beneath 
 the lid a rubber fender is inserted, thus preventing the sound 
 that would otherwise arise in closing the desk. 
 
 We also insert, if desired, at a trifling extra charge, a small 
 iron stop, which prevents the lid from going so far back as 
 to strain the hinges. 
 
 This style is adapted to the use of schools and academies 
 of the highest grade, and exceeds all others in capacity, 
 strength, and beauty. 
 
 Purchasers may choose between Dorchester and Stay 
 Chairs. (^See Engraving J^o. 18.)

 THE COLUM]^. 
 
 The following Engravings illustrate the " Column " in its 
 combinations with the various sizes previously mentioned. 
 
 Instead of being mounted on stands, as illustrated in the 
 foregoing Engravings, the desks arc placed on a single 
 column, the advantages of which, if investigated, will be 
 readily perceived. 
 
 The student is not only allowed more room in sitting, but 
 
 is enabled to pass in and out of the seat in a far more orderly 
 
 manner. The janitor will also find that in sweeping and 
 
 cleaning the room, the use of the column results greatly to 
 
 ^ his advantage. 
 
 It may be supposed at first sight that the desk will not 
 stand as firmly as on a pair of irons ; but the experience of 
 the past fifteen years (during which time it has been in con- 
 stant use) has demonstrated that the column holds the desk 
 even more firmly than the double stands, on both double and 
 single desks. 
 
 The following Engravings represent the sets in a variety of 
 positions, in order to illustrate the appearance of the column 
 from every point of view. 
 
 This establishment is the originator, and we are the only 
 manufacturers of the true column, which is the result of that 
 
29 
 
 study and experiment which other manufacturers have been 
 unwilling or unable to call to their aid ; hence, every so-called 
 column but that of our manufticture has failed to fulfil the 
 requirements for which it was designed, and thus in some 
 instances, we fear, conveying a false impression of the true 
 column.

 The engraving represents a style corresponding with No.

 and the desk is mounted on column, thereby presenting the 
 best and handsomest school set manufactured. This style 
 is in use in most of the leading high grade schools in New 
 England, from which we have valued testimonials of its 
 comfort, durability, beauty, and general convenience. 
 
 Purchasers may choose between Dorchester and Stay 
 Chairs without regard to price. 
 
 Nos. 11 and 18 are not usually furnished with ink-wells, 
 as scholars in higher grades generally use an inkstand, 
 more or less ornamental ; and in such cases a hole bored 
 for the ink-well becomes a source of inconvenience. Ink- 
 wells will be inserted, however, if desired, without extra 
 charge . 
 
 This establishment makes a specialty of fine,, high-grade 
 work. Our Normal Sets and Teachers' Desks are in high 
 favor with leading: teachers and educational authorities.

 WRITING STOOLS, 
 
 The engraving represents all the sizes, as stated in the 
 Schedule of Heights of Chairs and Desks. 
 
 This style is simple and effective ; they will give satisfac- 
 tion, when needed. 
 
 For most educational purposes, chairs are highly prefer- 
 able, and this seems to be the general opinion ; but, in 
 cases where writing is taught in a separate department, the 
 writing-stool is preferred, as being less expensive, and occu- 
 pying less room. 
 
 These stools are also convenient in dry goods and other 
 stores, where a counter stool is desired. They are also 
 adapted to manufacturing purposes, for use at work benches, 
 sewing machines, &c., and, as such, are frequently fitted with 
 a screw to rise and fall like a piano stool. 
 
 Cane-seat stools are furnished when desired, both with 
 wooden legs and on iron pedestals. The stools may be 
 upholstered, and covered with enamelled cloth, or any other 
 material.

 CLASSIC DESKS. 
 
 In order to meet the demand for new and improved styles 
 for high grade schools, we have this year (1870) intro- 
 duced a new desk-stand for normal and large grammar 
 desks, which we denominate the " Classic," and which is 
 illustrated in the accompanying engravings of Normal and 
 Grammar Sets ; also by a full page mechanical drawing. 
 
 The advantages of this new iron may be briefly stated, as 
 occupying less room, consequently resulting more to the 
 convenience of the scholar when passing in and out, while 
 it holds the desk as firmly as any other style. It is so 
 constructed as to admit the use of a brace, if desired, 
 (although we consider this fixture unnecessary) . We would 
 call attention to the manner in which this brace is applied, 
 obviating the use of screws and hooks, and rendering its 
 working loose an impossibility. It will be noticed that the 
 appearance of the stand is the same whether the brace be 
 applied or not. 
 
 The style of this iron, and the manner of applying the 
 brace, is original with us, nothing similar having been here- 
 tofore introduced. 
 
 With Classic Sets we furnish Stay or Dorchester Chairs, 
 as desired ; making no difference in the price.

 INK FIXTURES. 
 
 The engraving represents the ordinary glass ink-well (B), 
 which is inserted in the top of the desk, also two styles of 
 covers for the same. 
 
 C represents a japanned iron cover, which is screwed to the 
 top of the desk, covering the well and lifting with a hinge. 
 Being made of ii'on, it cannot be cut or otherwise injured. 
 
 A small aperture, through which to use the ink, is re- 
 garded by many as advantageous, as the well may be more 
 tightly closed, thereby allowing less evaporation. To meet 
 this requirement we have prepared a cover (A) which has a 
 small aperture in the centre through which to use the ink, 
 and a small cover to close it tight when not in use. The 
 entire cover turns off to fill or cleanse the well. 
 
 To meet the same requirement, we have introduced an 
 ink-well, as shown in engraving No. 52. 
 
 No. 52. 
 
40 
 
 This is also of glass, blown so as to leave a small opening 
 in the top. 
 
 The disadvantages, however, of a small aperture through 
 which to use ink, may be stated. It will be seen at once 
 that the ink is unavoidably communicated from the pen to 
 the sides of the opening, thence to the penholder, and ulti- 
 mately to the hands of the writer, causing uncleanliness of 
 person and injury to the work. There are many who over- 
 look these points, and hence we have introduced the above 
 patterns. These are furnished without extra charge with all 
 sets below a Normal. We combine ink-well B with covers 
 A or C, or ink-well No. 52 with either cover, as desired. 
 
 We claim that these styles will fulfill all the purposes for 
 which the various high-priced locking up arrangements have 
 been designed, except the locking part, which amounts to 
 nothing, as everything of the sort yet invented may be easily 
 opened by the pupil with a jack-knife or even a stick.

 For use on Black-boards. Made with both Wool and Car-

 wool or carpet face is preferable. Our experience is that the 
 carpet erases with the least friction, but scatters more dust 
 and does not wear as long as the wool. We use best Lamb- 
 skins, and best Brussels and Tapestry carpeting.

 HASKELL'S BLACK-BOARD LIQUID. 
 
 A preparation for giving a slate surface to plaster, wood, 
 paper, and, in fact, any surface to which paint may be applied. 
 
 The ingredients are of the best quality. We give our per- 
 sonal attention to the preparation of this liquid and use every 
 precaution to ensure a superior article. It is in use in nearly 
 every town where our furniture is sold, and purchasers al- 
 ways call for it a second time. 
 
 Put up in gallon, half-gallon, and quart cans, or any quan- 
 tity to order. 
 
 A gallon will cover from sixty to eighty square yards at 
 one coat. On work that has not been previously blacked 
 two coats are desirable, so that one gallon will make say 
 twenty-five or thirty square yards of black-board. 
 
 Full directions accompany each can, and it may be applied 
 by any one who can handle a paint-brush and read the Eng- 
 lish language. A broad flat brush is preferable, which we 
 will furnish if desired; but any clean paint brush may be 
 made to answer. It dries immediately, and is ready for use. 
 
 Maps, Charts, Slates, Door-mats, Dusters, and all School 
 Fixtures, furnished to order.

 TEACHEKS' DESKS. 
 
 The following pages illustrate some of the various patterns 
 of Desks and Tables for Teachers and others manufactured 
 at this Establishment. In addition to these and other styles 
 we manufacture to order Desks and Tables of any desired 
 pattern. 
 
 In the manufacture of these articles especial care is taken 
 to insure first class work in every respect. They are made 
 from the best lumber, thoroughly seasoned, and put together 
 by competent workmen in the most approved manner. 
 Assuming that beauty of style and finish is as desirable in 
 school-room as in drawing-room furniture, we have endeav- 
 ored to bring our large desks, as well as all our furniture, to 
 a modern point of improvement, gladly availing ourselves 
 of any suggestions which may be offered by those teachers 
 and educational people with whom we come in daily con- 
 tact, and uniting with them the practical ideas of a long 
 business experience. 
 
 Our furniture presents none of the old fashioned stifi" 
 appearance found in the old time school-rooms, but grace and 
 beauty are blended with durability and convenience. While 
 we sacrifice no utility to mere ornament, we aim at beauty 
 and style, at the same time adding no useless expense to the 
 work. Our higher grade desks are furnished with slates, 
 which will be found of great convenience to the teacher, and 
 ornamental drawer-pulls supersede the old fashioned knobs 
 
46 
 
 which were always working loose and coming off. It may be 
 noticed that some of the accompanying illustrations represent 
 the drawers with knobs, but purchasers may rest assured that 
 all of the better class of desks will be furnished with ornamen- 
 tal pulls, unless knobs are desired, in which case they will be 
 furnished. It is our intention to keep on hand a fair supply 
 of the more popular styles of Teachers' Desks, but a con- 
 stant demand renders it sometimes impracticable. These 
 remarks will apply in a general way to all our furniture, 
 and it is for the interest of all parties purchasing to give as 
 long a notice as possible of their desire for goods in our line.

 CHAIKS. 
 
 We present in the following pages a few Engravings, illus- 
 trating some of the more desirable styles of Chairs for Teach- 
 ers and others. We furnish chairs of any desired pattern at 
 the lowest market prices. The following are some of the 
 styles most in favor : —

 BOSTON CHAIR. 
 
 The best and strongest chair manufactured. This chair is 
 made from selected stock, and is a specialty with us. It is at 
 once the most comfortable and strongest chair in the market. 
 
 This chair is well adapted to desk No. 230, and, with a 
 cushion, leaves nothing to be desired for comfort and utility. 
 
80 
 
 No. 406. 
 
 COMMITTEE CHAIE. 
 
 This is a very durable chair, and is very convenient for 
 general use in the School-room, also in Halls, Churches, &c. 
 
 It is not to be classed with the common cheap chair of sim- 
 ilar pattern. This chair is much in use in Railway Stations 
 and other places requiring extra strong work.

 CRAM'S PATENT FOLDING CHAIR. 
 
 Very convenient where space is valuable, as it folds up 
 closely. Cane seat. 
 
 A. The chair open for use. 
 
 B. The chair closed. 
 
 Unlike all other folding chairs, this stands firmly, and there 
 is no possibility of its closing or giving way under the sitter. 
 
 The simple act of lifting the seat closes it. We are the only 
 manufacturers of this chair, as it is protected by letters patent.

 CRAM'S PATENT FOLDING STOOLS. 
 
 A., open for use. S, closed. 
 
 These will be found convenient where a temporary seat is 
 desired, which can be easily packed away when not in use. 
 They are made with cane, wood, carpet, and duck seats. 
 
 We manufacture Folding Stools of various patterns to 
 order. 
 
 Chairs of any desired pattern manufactured and furnished 
 to order.

 SETTEES. 
 
 We have long enjoyed an enviable reputation in the manu- 
 facture of Settees, and any comment on them is needless. 
 
 The business of manufacturing Settees, as a specialty, was 
 first established by the senior partner of the present firm in 
 1835, and the demand for them has been steadily increasing 
 since that time, until we now reckon our yearly sales by tens 
 of thousands of feet. 
 
 Descriptions of each of the different styles will be detailed 
 under the proper heads. 
 
 Ac. r,i)i. 
 
 RECITATION SETTEE. 
 
 As the name implies this Settee is for use in the School- 
 room. It is made with white-wood seat and hard wood 
 back, finished on the wood. Mounted on iron lef?s. It has 
 no arms, but the back is strengthened by an iron brace or 
 knee. 
 
84 
 
 SUBDIVIDED SETTEE. 
 
 This Settee is useful for Lyceums, Halls, Railroad Sta- 
 tions, &o., where iiulividual seats are required, and, as such, 
 it supercedes the use of single chairs, to which it is highly 
 preferable. 
 
 No. 305. 
 
 HALL SETTEE. 
 
 The Engraving represents the usual pattern of Hall Settee, 
 of which we manufacture tens of thousands of feet every 
 year. In this Settee we take especial care to make a first 
 
85 
 
 class article in every respect. The seats are made from old 
 growth pine, well hollowed, and left thick at the ends, to allow 
 a strong support for the arm. This hollowing is done on a 
 machine made expressly for .the purpose, and this, as well as 
 other machinery which we have introduced especially for the 
 uses to which it is put, is absolutely essential to first-class 
 work, and parties not possessing these facilities cannot by 
 any possibility produce the same quality of work at the 
 same price as we are enabled to. The backs, legs, rods, &c., 
 are made from the best quality of hard wood, such as rock- 
 maple, birch, and beech. All of our turned stock is kept 
 on hand at least a year before it is used, and its perfect 
 seasoning is thereby secured. The Settees are painted with 
 the best pure English lead, and grained in imitation of any 
 wood, or painted any desired color. Our intention is to keep 
 on hand a fair supply of all lengths of even feet, from five to 
 twelve feet in length, grained in imitation of oak, but such 
 is the demand, that it is for the advantag-e of those desirino- 
 to.purchase to give their orders at as early a date as possible. 
 
 Settees of any dcfired wood furnished to order at short 
 notice. 
 
 If it is desired to fasten settees to the floor, we have a 
 small iron for that purpose. 
 
86 
 
 Ko. 506. 
 
 EEVERSIBLE SETTEE. 
 
 This pattern is made to match No. 505. The back is 
 reversible, turning on malleable iron arms. These settees 
 are in use in nearly every Sunday School in New England, 
 and are designed for places where it is desirable to face them 
 in different directions. The design of a Reversible Settee 
 is original with this establishment. Other parties have 
 endeavored to imitate it, but in every case with ill success. 
 
87 
 
 Jfo. BIO. 
 
 BERKELEY SETTEE. 
 
 The Engraving represents a highly ornamental Reversible 
 Settee. It is made from any desired lumber, and finished in 
 varnish, oil, or shellac, or painted as desired. 
 
88 
 
 No. 313. 
 
 PARK SETTEE. 
 
 The Engraving represents a Settee designed for parks, 
 gardens, &c. The legs and back support are of iron, and 
 cast in one piece. The seat and back are made in strips, 
 renderina: them suitable for out of door use. 
 
89 
 
 JJToi 5S0. 
 
 MERRITT SETTEE. 
 
 This is a very elegant settee, with iron legs and sub- 
 dividing arms. The engraving fails to fully illustrate the 
 subject, as it is difficult to represent it in a plain drawing. 
 The back is of solid black walnut, heavily paneled, and 
 the seat is cushioned with maroon plush and the best curled 
 haiT. These settees are in use in the passenger rooms of the 
 new Boston and Maine Railroad Station in Boston, where 
 they give the utmost satisfaction. 
 
90 
 
 Wo. 530. 
 
 CROQUET SETTEE. 
 
 This Settee has been introduced to meet the demand for a 
 low cost, comfortable seat for Croquet grounds, piazzas, 
 gardens, groves, &c. It may be of any desired length, and 
 either painted or plain. It is put together entirely with 
 screws. 
 
 The similarity of this settee to those used in the Coliseum 
 at the National Peace Jubilee in 1869 will be observed. 
 Being made with a view to permanency it is, however, supe- 
 rior to those, both as to comfort and durability. 
 
91 
 
 No. 535. 
 
 VERANDAH SETTEE. 
 
 Similar in pattern to No. 513, but lighter. The engrav- 
 ino- represents the Settee with iron arms, but they may be 
 omitted if desired. The seats may be made either in strips 
 or solid. 
 
 This Settee furnishes a convenient seat for Railway Sta- 
 tions, &c. 
 
92 
 
 JV^o. 539. 
 
 Ko. 340. 
 
 SWEEP SETTEES. 
 
 As will be observed in the engravings, these Settees are 
 made on a curve, to fit circular places. No. 540 is very- 
 convenient for Sunday Schools, as the teacher sits in a chair, 
 and has the whole class directly facing him. 
 
93 
 
 We manufacture settees of many other patterns, so many 
 that space will not allow their illustration in these pages. 
 All of these settees may be made on wooden or iron legs, 
 and with or without arms as desired. They may be sub- 
 divided by iron arms if so preferred. Whenever the arms 
 are left off the back is sufficiently strengthened by iron 
 knees to compensate for the omission. We are manufactm'- 
 ing a variety of ornamental settees in oak and ash lumber, 
 with bent oak arms and plain or ornamental backs. Samples 
 or drawings of all our patterns may be seen at our office. 
 The constant introduction of new styles renders their illustra- 
 tion in this pamphlet impracticable. 
 
 We possess unequalled facilities for the manufacture of 
 Settees of new styles, and orders for anything in this line, 
 out of the ordinary course, can be filled with greater fidelity 
 and promptness from this establishment than any other. 
 
 Before closing this portion of our Catalogue, it may be 
 well to state that we are aware that Settees are made and 
 Bold at prices a few cents per foot lower than those of our 
 manufacture. A moment's consideration will detect the 
 difference, and demonstrate to the purchaser that what he 
 saves in price he loses in quality three or four fold. Our 
 Settees are made well and substantially, and care is taken to 
 ensure a handsome and durable article. They are sold as 
 low as the cost of material and labor and a fair living profit 
 will warrant. The facilities for their manufacture are un- 
 equalled in this country. We can make a Settee of any 
 quality, and sell it at a lower prise than any other party. 
 But we have long since decided that cheaply made Settees 
 will not pay at any price, for in their manufacture what we 
 
94 
 
 might gain pecuniarily we should lose in reputation. Con- 
 sequently we make a uniformly good and durable article. 
 With our experience and facilities, we feel justified in say- 
 ing, that any Settees sold at a lower price than those manu- 
 factured at this establishment are of an inferior quality. 
 We would offer a few words of warning to purchasers, and 
 their attention to the points mentioned will be greatly to 
 their advantage. 
 
 In buying the usual pattern of Settees (i.e., Hall Set- 
 tee, No. 505) be particular to know that the seat is of old 
 growth pine, and not sapling. See that it is thick enough 
 to allow a good comfortable hollow, and that it is left thick 
 at the ends to strengthen the arm. 
 
 See that the pillars (which support the back) are halved, 
 glued, and screwed to the back, and not doweled in. 
 
 Look at the turned stock, pillars, legs, &c., and see of 
 what lumber they are made. We use nothing for this pur- 
 pose but maple, beech, and birch. See that they are not 
 made of chestnut or other treacherous wood, and see also 
 that they are thoroughly seasoned, lest they shrink and get 
 loose after short usage. See that there is no cheap chair 
 stock put in. This latter is smaller, consequently weaker,, 
 and made of all kinds of lumber. See what stock is used 
 in painting. Cheap work is frequently done in whiting and 
 glue size. A thin coat of paint and varnish over this con- 
 ceals the fraud, and the purchaser wonders why the paint 
 has so soon worn off his settees. 
 
 We use on our Settees, exclusively y the best pure English 
 lead, painting with this in two coats ; and all other material 
 used is first class. 
 
95 
 
 A glance is sufficient to demonstrate the difference be- 
 tween our Settees and the worthless articles of that name 
 occasionally palmed upon the public, but the difficulty of 
 comparing them before purchase induces us to make the fore- 
 going remarks, attention to which will save money and 
 mortification. 
 
 cushio:n^s akd upholsteky. 
 
 Although not directly engaged in an upholstery business, 
 our relations with many leading upholsterers enable us to 
 state that we are prepared to receive orders for work in this 
 line, and we will guarantee that nothing but purely first class 
 work will be suffered to go from this establishment, and our 
 prices will be simply those of the upholsterer. 
 
 In many cases purchasers of settees desire cushions for 
 them, and when such is the case we should be notified to 
 
 that effect, as it is desirable to make the back higher to cor- 
 respond with the thickness of the cushion. 
 
 If Upholstered School Furniture of any description is re- 
 quired, we are prepared to receive orders therefor. 
 
96 
 
 No. 560 
 
 CRAM'S PATENT STEP LADDEE. 
 
 The engraving shows the step both open and closed. It 
 is convenient for use in Halls, Churches, School-houses, 
 and elsewhere, for cleaning windows, walls, &c. The im- 
 proved fastener renders its use perfectly safe, being far supe- 
 rior to the old fashioned iron hook, so liable to get out of 
 order. 
 
 These step-ladders are made from three to ten steps high. 
 The engraving represents a ladder of four steps. 
 
97 
 
 LE FEERE'S PATENT SASH ELEVATOR. 
 
 An ingenious and simple device for raising and lowering 
 windows at the top, and a very desirable adjustment for 
 heavy windows. The various hooks and contrivances hereto- 
 fore used are liable to injure the sash, or break the glass. 
 This device cannot possibly do either, and is so simple that a 
 child can operate it. It may be seen in operation at our 
 oflfice. 
 
 FUEOTTUEE FOR PUBLIC BUILDI:N^GS. 
 
 We are prepared to manufacture Desks, Tables, Chairs, 
 Book-cases, Settees, &c. , of any desired pattern, for all kinds 
 of Public Buildings, Halls, Libraries, City and Town Offi- 
 cers' Eooms, Theatres, Lyceums, &c. The styles in use are 
 so various that any illustrations further than those presented 
 in this pamphlet are impracticable.

 In ordering Furniture be particular to designate the style 
 as well as size desired. 
 
 It is understood that in the absence of special instructions, 
 the Furniture is to correspond with the descriptions of the 
 Engravings in this pamphlet, and in all School Furniture 
 between Primary and Normal sizes Ink-well, and cover No. 
 51, B and C, will be furnished without extra charge. If 
 either of the other patterns are desired it should be so 
 stated. 
 
 Furniture will be suitably packed for transportation and 
 delivered at any Railroad or wharf in the city of Boston 
 proper. Screws and all necessary fixtures for putting furni- 
 ture together are included in the prices given. Matting or 
 boxing will be. charged extra, but such matting or boxing if 
 returned free of expense to us, will be credited at prices 
 charged. State the line by which furniture shall be sent. 
 
 It is our intention to keep always on hand a fair supply of 
 goods in our line. But a steady and constantly increasing 
 demand renders it frequently impracticable, consequently it is 
 for the advantage of all concerned to forward their orders in 
 good season. Our unequalled facilities render us able to fill 
 any reasonable order at short notice, but disappointment may 
 be avoided by sending orders as soon as it is decided to pur- 
 chase. 
 
 Our goods have been sold during the last thirty-eight years 
 to almost every city and town in New England, as yvell as 
 West and South ; Canada, Nova Scotia, California and even 
 
99 
 
 to South America/Europe, Asia, and Africa, — in fact to 
 every continent on the globe. Parties desirous of examining 
 our goods without the trouble and expense of a journey to 
 Boston will find them in almost any direction. We will fur- 
 nish information cheerfully on application, in regard to where 
 our goods may be found, by inquirers, in their own neighbor- 
 hoods, and give names of parties to whom to apply. Our 
 large sales in every direction enable us to offer this superior 
 method of advertisement. We could give lists of cities and 
 towns, as well as persons, that would prove a ready reference 
 to all Muthin reach of this pamphlet, but space will not admit. 
 
 The following list, alphabetically arranged, gives three 
 towns under each letter in Massachusetts alone, to which our 
 goods have been sent during the past year, (1809) . 
 
 Andover, Amesbury, Arlington. 
 
 Beverly, Braintree (all), Brighton. 
 
 Chelsea, Charlestown, Canton. 
 
 Dorchester, Danvers, Dighton. 
 
 Easton, East Bridge water. East Med way. 
 
 Fitchburg, Fairmount, Franklin. 
 
 Gloucester, Georgetown, Greenfield. 
 
 Hyde Park, Hamilton, Holyoke.

 X. (No towns in Massachusetts beginning with this 
 letter. 
 
 Yarmouth, (the only town under this letter in Mass.). 
 
 Z. (No town in Massachusetts beginning with this 
 letter. 
 
 This list could be greatly extended in Massachusetts alone, 
 to say nothing of other States, where a large percentage of 
 our goods are sent. 
 
 A WORD m sbaso:n'. 
 
 Having at our command every requisite equipment, we are 
 able to supply, at short notice, School Furniture, made and 
 finished in a superior style, at such reasonable prices as will 
 leave no possible excuse for expending school money upon 
 uncomely, unsuitable, or coarsely made articles. 
 
 Instances have occurred, where committees have adopted 
 the error of supposing that this kind of School Furniture can 
 be made by any person, however destitute of such exact 
 
101 
 
 experience and equipments, as are absolutely necessary to the 
 work. Under the influence of this delusion, contracts have 
 been made with persons whose knowledge of the matter de- 
 pended mainly upon the engravings and prices of this estab- 
 lishment, and who did not duly consider the advantage of 
 tested models, with machinery and power, in the beauty, 
 accuracy, and economy of manufacturing. 
 
 The consequences of such an oversight are natural and cer- 
 tain. If the contractor is faithful, he is a loser, without suc- 
 cess. The committee find, when too late, that they get arti- 
 cles every way inferior. They are mortified and censured, 
 the parents are chagrined and dispirited, the reasonable 
 progress of school reform is repressed, and a whole county 
 suffers from the error of a single school district, where the 
 hopes of improvement have been disappointed. 
 
 These difficulties may be entirely avoided, by forwarding 
 orders for School Furniture to this establishment, the whole 
 force of which is constantly employed on this work, and which 
 has never, in a single instance, failed of giving satisfaction. 
 
 These remarks are made with particular regard to School 
 Furniture, but they will apply as well to any other of our 
 manufactures.
