What the editor Of the Hastings
Union thinks of the Brainerd Eating
House:
There is a railroad eating house at
'Brainerd. We were very hungry
when the brakeman shouted "Brain-
erd, twenty minutes for dinner?'
We struck out for the dining room
at gait that wouldin AXE Weston's
record Of 553 miles look small, with
visions Of quail on toast, oyster stew,
ETC., floating before our eyes. OF
course we would take some
soup. We got it, at least the hand
some young lady in attendance told
us that sonp was the name by which
it went. 1t was cold and tasted very
much like rat hoiled ina barrel of
rain water. We passed-to the
next course. g Roast beef Yes,
we would have some, rare done. A
chvnksabout three inches square was
brought in We chopped off one
corner and put in. our mouth. It did
not taste like. anything we had ever
eaten before. Z ssAlthorongh examina-
tion revealed the mass to- be close
resemblance to second hand liver
pad, thoroughly cooked, We ordered
it up and took some pie. They had
three kinds, pie, apple pie and cheese.
We dug the apple out and lett the
crust and asked for the bill. "Sev-
enty-five cents,'' blandly said the
landlord. We paid it, and informed
the gentlmen that we hoped7th coun-

The contract for repairing the Leaf River

place this time.
