Uutdoor Exhibit of Hodgson Portable Houses at Dover. Mass.

Thirty years ago we started in a hutnble way in a small shop. Today we have a spacious, daylight factory equipped with
the most modern machinery and operated by men who have made portable liotises a life-long study. With this equipment and
training. the houses we are able to turn out have won for us an undisputed reputation for being practical, durable and artistic.
with a decided sense of individuality and refinement that appeals to all who appreciate these qualities. The fact that 75 per
cent. of our business each year comes through customers who have u-ed our houses for years. proves that our eflorts in build-
ing a portable house with these features have been appreciated. They are to be found on the finest estates in this country.
being used for cottages, garages, playhouses, garden houses, overflow houses. poultry houses, etc. Send for our Catalog. It

tells you all.

very satisfactory. The children are getting a great deal of
pleasure out of them. They are placed on a hill back of
our summer residence in New Hampshire. The guinea pig
house is also affording a great deal of satisfaction to the
