THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE .
New York's Up-tO-date Merchants
a Great Feature,
Notes Picked TIP on the Way oyc,.

The accompanying reproduction from
the New York Herald Of section OF
New York city and the Brooklyn
Bridge illustrates the advantage that
ADVERTISERS have taken of the enormous
traffic between these two great cities.
While there are other concerns than the
one shown represented the great pre-
punderance of these particulars signs
evidently induced the Herald To give to
its readers a general idea Of what the
patrons Of the bridge are confronted
with the year round
The Brooklyn Bridge, than which, per-
haps excepting the London bridge,
there Is no other equally famous the
world over, connects the two cities from
Park ROW. New York to Sands street
Brooklyn 1t Is a grand structure and
the local authorities are making Il still
more elaborate by the addition Of inn
posing entrances IN each city.
Work on the bridge was begun Jan. 2,
1870 and the public had the pleasue OF
watching It's progress for 70 years. 1t
was opened to the public May a. 1883,
ana from that date 10 the present time
has had an enviabe record
Considering the service since rendered
and the fact that the bridge has become
q public necessity, the cost, which start
led some people at the time OF It's COM
pletion, is not excessive, Fifteen mil
lions of dollars cannot exactly be called
a bagatelle by the majority Of the resi-
dents Of Greater New York, but Il Is not
such an enormous sum when expended
for such a benefit as the bridge has
proven TO be.

custom Of saying grace before meat
seemed TO be dying out everywhere,
and she added apropos Of this, that
she had entertained q bishop shortly

picked her not little.
However. at the first meal which tho
