Word of Thanks Wishing to thank
the public for the kind and liberal
patronage they have given us, the last
two years we "have been in business in
the city of Salem. Ai all times we have
endeavored to give you the worth of
your money and will continue to do
so. Commencing April 1st prices of our
regular meals will be 3.") cents. Break
fasts 10 to 35 cents. Yours most sin

mercial street, John Loper, proprietor.
Now that April 1 is about to be with
us, let's talk about, the weather. The
idea is, if there had been normal condi
tion during the month, there would be
no weather to discuss. But the old tim
ers who have been here a quarter o'f a
century or more say this is the most
backward spring they can remember.
The consolation comes from the fact
that after the garden ia once planted,
winter will bs no longer lingering in the
lap of spring, and only one planting will
be necessary.
