One of the innovations introduced by the Canadian Pacific Railway is worthy of imitation on other roads. As we were on the road fronai Ottawa to Mon- treal, an energetic acrobat in a white apron came through the cars with lunches. The lunch consisted of sand- wiches, cakes and such, together vrith tea or coffee. When he got an order he spread before the hungry traveller a neat little table covered with a snowy cloth. He carried the coffee and things like a balancer at a circus through the swaying cars. The coffee was in neat little silyer j)ots, and the cups and saucers were of the prettiest China. Each pot held abont two cups of coffee, and the charge for a pot of liot coffee was ten cents. Sandwichea wore also ten cents each. It was worth the price of admissiou to see the waiter carry the trays without spilling or upsetting any- thing. The coffee was simply sap^hj and I hope when the C. P. R. gets through with the fellow who makes it, that he will take a tonr around the country and teach hotel folks how to get up good coffee. â€" [Look Sharp, in Detroit Free Press.
