Epic- Epicure! Dear Friends: Homer was the greatest writer of epics the world has ever known the epic-tetus of all time. Epicurus was probably the great est epicure. .He poached his own eggs and touched nothing that was not prepared after his own recipes. Imagine Epicurus' joy if a Hotel Mult nomah cuisine had been handy. Of all the Multnomah's claims to distinc tion, the greatest, perhaps, is the ability to forecast and properly cater to a jaded ap petite. No man is quite sane who is not well nour ished. Jealousies, unkindnesses, inefficien cies, taking every form and shape, belong only to people who are not well fed. Therefore, come to Hotel Multnomah'. And come to live.
