safety bicycle on the market, a wheel strictly
high grade, and equal in every particular to
any manufactured in America or Europe. AS
previous to this all manufacturers had
charged very large price for tirst-class
wheel, the John p. Lowell Arms Company is
therefore the first house that has ever offered
the public such wheel at a price hat does
not place it beyond the reach of the average
persons purse. The company that manufac-
lures this wheel the Lowell Diamond Safety
is one of the oldest of all the manufacturing
and mercantile houses in New England, hav-
ing been established in 1910.
Besides being one Of the leading bicycle
firms in the United States, the John 2. Lowell
Arms Company is and has been for years
well-known manufacturer and dealer in fire
arms and sporting goods Of every description;
On June Is of last year, the firm celebrated
its half-ceHtury anniversary. The founder or
this enterprising house, Mr.. John ?. Lowell,
although over 20 years of age, is still an i'm
