is far above the average-the pictures CIV

teresting feature Of the catalogue is the
chronology of the Pope Manufacturing
Company. from it's small beginning in Bos-
ton in 1877 to its present colossal magni-
tude. Twenty years ago the company was
content with the small premises of 45 High

total floor space is no less than seventeen
acres. These two pages Of chronology are
finely illustrated; the drawings showing the
evolution Of the "steed of steel" from the
comical "hobby horse,' ''velocipede" and
''bone shaker to the later day model of
grace and strength and utility-the '97 "Co-
lumbia.'
