We have with us this morning the Nor
ris Avenue Market advertisement This
market is so conveniently located that
anybody can reach it without any diff
ficulty or inconvenience. Be sure to read
over their offerings this morning before
you make up your nina where you will
spend your money. Every nickel counts,
you know. The general line they carry
is good one to choose from. They
can fill up your Sunday dinner basket In
less time than it takes me to set this up
in type. While eating breakfast this
morning, make up your mind what you
want for the morrow. What's the use
running all around town looking for
bargains when this Market Page is full
OF them? Look at the prices of the Nor
ris Avenue Market. OF course, they can't
put everything into an advertisement.
But if you'll give them a chance they
will show you a thing or two.
AS usual, Catanzano Bros. have lot
of goods things on sale this week. Pom
PIANO. mackerel, oysters. Don't these look
good to you? And this is only few
of the many good things they have in
stock And if you want to fill your bas-
ket with the best the market affords,
take it from me, these brothers are on
the job. BE sure and take look at
their nice, fresh vegetables. They always
carry just few delicacies that the other
fellows don't. And if you want nice
fat, dressed fowl, take Gus into your
confidence and he will see that you are
we'll served.
