1t is the intention Of the HERALD each
Saturday morning to print what ia
known as market basket article. I'm

view of what the market affords in the
way of edibles, together with the pre-
vailing prices. This article the house

! formation as to what she can secure
Saturday for the Sunday dinner. This
will in the future be one of the features
OF the paper. The review will be care
fully compiled, and the facts therein set
forth will be reliable in every sense.

with market basket she could with but
little money succeed in selecting the
articles for dinner that would cause
the mouth of any man to water.
