The New
Congress
Hall
DO you know old Con
gress Hall, at Cape
May ? Perhaps your
grandfather and grand
mother went there on
their wedding trip.
Well, you would hardly
recognize it today in its
new dress of fresh paint,
nnd completely rejuve
nated. After being closed
for years, and "dead to
the world," it has blos
somed out again, looking
fit to receive a new pro
cession of brides.
And all so easily done, just
because it was built of
BRICK. Most of the old sea
side hotels were mere wooden
shells, always ready to bo
blown down or burned up; but
Conuress Hnll, built of ever
lnstinc brick, s.Unnds as solid
ns the old lipht-house, and
needs only a little brushing
up to bo as Rood us ever.
And as to its value today
see if you can get the owners
to tell you what it is. f
For appearance, comfort,
safety, permanence, high
value,' and low cost, get a good
architect and build of common
brick.
