Home Grocery Ships a Car Of Pinesapples From Cuba.

The Home Grocery has ordered a whole car load of pineapples to reach here next Saturday. Such good success did they have in their pineapple sales last year and so well were the people who bought them and canned them pleased that the Home Grocery decided that they would order an entire car load, direct from Cuba, saving all the costs that attach to the purchase'in small quantities and giving their customers the advantage. The scarcity of other fruit will doubtless cause many to get right after the pineapple bargains and as they will be thoroughly advertised they will go like hot cakes. The price will be the cheapest that pineapples were ever sold for in this city, being only about 50 cents a dozen in crate lots, the cheapest fruit on the market.
