SAVING IN BUYING
BY Mrs. Blocker Hangs.

We tried the market club plan as
an experiment and we have found
that it has resulted in great savings
already. We hope to extend the list
of things which we will handle as our
experience grows. At present we
handle only staple articles, like butter.
eggs, rice, beans. canned and bottled
goods and all green produce. Later on
we will have tea and coffee. hams and
bacon, and one day, when every body Is
agreed, we will have a chicken day.
We bought turkeys for Thanksgiv-
ing, and many requests came in from
people to buy turkeys for them. though
they are not members of the club.
The members of club like this
must live very close to each other. and
the membership should go in skies or
dozens. because the articles divide
more advantageously that way. We
have six members in our club and we
find it works out without any difficulty
The market men are perfectly will

Of March %, 1911. in which 1l7 young shirt

floors of the Asch building were burned
or driven to jump to their deaths on the
pavements nine floors below \ verdict Of

by The jury in the case of Isaac Harris

tory known as the Triangle Waist COM

in connection with the holocaust.
Unusual precautions we're taken to pre-

The jury came in after celebrating for

by the defendants. but after an adjourn

Schwartz, a young girl who was found

both prosecution and defense was directed
against this door. the State introducing
over a hundred witnesses in an attempt

of testimony.
Assistant District Attorney Rostwick
argued that the factory was crowded with
equipment which Harris himself had laid

from more than 10000 waists had been
stacked about the place, constituting a
