Some Hints About the Sunday Dinner and Where to Buy
By JOHN c. MOSES

This is Dollar Day" with most of our Market Page advertisers.
 They are trying to see just how much they can get into a basket for s1. And If you read over this page you'll be sur- prised to know that prices have been cut so low.
 Rain or shine, that Sunday dinner must come! Everyone about the family circle looks to poor, tired mother for good things to eat on the rest day
 In times past mother was strictly up against hard proposition. as tramping all over town on Saturday was worse than cleaning house. Because when you go downtown the best of attire must be worn. while around the house "any old thing in the way of dress goes.
 But now the thousands of women read CTS of The Age-Herald have only to look up the Saturday Market Page. scan the hundreds of bargains, and select just what they wish from the ads of the wide-awake merchants who use printers ink to draw trade
 And this morning we have a big list to select from. The prices are lower than has been the case for weeks, and living prices are offered. Try and work in har- mony with the merchants. They have got to do right to hold trade, and if you encourage them with these Saturday bar gain sales both will profit thereby | *
 Tickled! That expresses it exactly ,, said my good friend Newmon of J. H. Newmon & Co.,. opposite the postoffice building, corner Second avenue and Eight eenth street. He referred to the extreme ly high score the firm made on the last city inspectior' trip. And well he might be pleased. This Is one of the most sani- tary markets in the city. Just now it IS being renovated throughout, the interior to be snow white when finished. This market has become the trading center of the citys best buyers, and the cause lies between two thlngs-judicious advertising and strict attention to business. This is a combination hard Ia boat.

 The ladies are still in favor of the genial manager of the c. D. Kenny Co.,. MT Brumback. The reason is easy to figure out-sugar. The housewives claim that this firm is one of the main causes for sugar being lower at preserving time this season. And when you give the women folk cheap canning accessories at this time of year, you work on their heart strings Then that good brand of tea that this firm is selling for a hot weather drinR IS a winner. And again. Kenny claims to sell the best 25-cent coffee in the south. So long as the ladies are with Kenny's. the carload of sugar they sell each day will continue to move.
 Over at Magnolia Point, w. B. Emond X Son have captured about seven eighths of the trade. The reason is very apparent-the best of everything and right prices Then, besides when you step into this establishment you are given the glad hand and a smile, it matters not whether your purchase be cake of Octagon soa or $1.50 roast off the best cut of west ern meat. All money looks alike over there. Then, again, the place always looks inviting and clean, and once you buy there. you feel like going back. It's the comeback in trade that counts.
 
 That little Pure Food Grocery company has some of it's larger competitors guess ing as to the amount of it's weekly turn over The stock is not as large as that of some of the big fellows. but it is al- ways fresh. And the prices-well, that's what keeps this stock turning Don't take it from me, go round the corner to this little grocery store and market and ,et them price you stuff. It's dollars to doughnuts they load you up for Sunday
 
 Last week I told the readers of this Market Page to ask to be introduced to Sig Levy. the man behind the delicates- sen department at Holzer's Flyless Mar ket. Of course, this caused more or less trouble, having hundreds of patrons want ing to meet Sig. But so popular has he proven (with the ladies) that the business of this department has almost doubled Sigs a good mixer, you know. My friend Holzer was very jubilant yesterday when shook hands with him. Whats good with VOL today Holzer?', I asked hin,
