What the Editors Say. who have found it necessary when en j route to either carry a lunch or pat ronize the necessarily high-priced I diners, have been agreeably surprised with the lunch service adopted by the i Southern Pacific some time ago. The male brunette who formerly announc ed that dinner was ready in the diner, and who did it in a tone to indicate that you could either follow him or starve, now announces the meals as usual but also leaves a slip announc ing that for the accommodation of passengers lunch boxes will be de livered by the waiter upon request at the modest price of 30 cents. The slip gives the contents of each box, the list including items sufficient for a good sized lunch. \\ ith the lunch boxes a family may be fed at the price it formerly cost one. There was no particular reason why the Southern Pacific should adopt this lunch box service, other than the accommoda tion of its patrons. Such interest in the welfare and comfort of travelers is such a contrast to the public-be- damned spirit of the roads of a few years ago as to be worthy of special notice.—Sentinel, Cottage Grove. k RAY & CO Dealerj" in Groceries, Hay, Grain Golden Crown Flour, bl., $5.50 Sack, $1.45 Ray&Co. *s Special Coffee, bl. 27c Royal Club Raisins, per lb., 10c Currants, 2 pk£, 25 c 17c Good Walnuts, per lb All Other Goods Sold at BARGAIN PRICES Don’t Throw Away Your Prescription By taking it where it may not be accu rately tilled—where part of the ingredients used may be so old as to have lost their freshness, strength and purity.
