The John P. Lovell Arms Co.

It is of tho utmost importance that parties who are in want of a good Gun, Rifle or Revolver, or, in fact, anything in the sporting good 3 line, should patronize a reliable dealer in these goods, whose reputation for honestly dealing with thoir patrons is established. Such is the reputation that has been enjoyed by the John P. Lovell Arms Co., of Boston, Mass., for the last forty-seven years. Tho business of this well-known house was established in 1840, by Mr. John P. Lovell, who is now the honored President of the company. Their reputation for honest dealing with their patrons is not limited to this country alone, but is world-wide, as they have customers in every portion of the habitable globe. It is a pleasure to purchase goods from this well-known firm, for tho purchaser is assured that when he receives his goods that they will be found to be exactly as represented in their extensive catalogues, which they issue for the convenience of customers who reside at a distance, and who cannot pay them a visit to maite a personal selection. The John P. Lovell Arms Co. are extensive manufacturers of Guns, Revolvers, Roller Skates, Police Goods, Air Rifles, etc., et'., which explains why their prices are so much lower than those of their competitors, who have to depend on other manufacturers for their goods. It is an interesting sight to visit the extensive warerooms of this firm, where are stored thousands of the most celebrated makes of Shot Guns, Rfles, etc., etc. The building itself is an imposing structure, situated in the most historic part of old Boston, and facing Faneuil Hall and the statue of Samuel Adams. Special attention is called to an advertisement now in our columns of a Colt Repeating Rifle, whicb the Lowell Arms Company are offering for $ll.OO. This, as they state, is the greatest bargain we have ever seen in this line. Being manufactured by the celebrated Colt Revolver concern of Hartford, Conn., is a sufficient guarantee that the Rifle is exactly what is claimed for it No one who is interested in sporting, goods of any description should fail to secure a copy of the catalogue issued by this firm. It consists of 100 pages, and is mailed free of charge to any address on receipt of 6 cents in stamps. It is full of important information of interest to the sportsman.
