'.Mill IS K l.OTll I.OSK Ml INKY Recommended by World Famed Medical Authorities reason tnougn I'KACK; Wll.Ii IT I'OMK Germany's peace proposal to the allies is really no peace proposal. It i is simply a declaration by Herman" i that peace would be acceptable pro-; vided Germany dictates the plan of: peace. No one expects Germany's ; enemies to accept her proposals, and j tho only good it can do is to make ; the other nations pause long enough i to turn their thoughts from war to peace, so it might be that when these ' nations are thinking of peace, plans j may be made whereby p3ace will be restored. Should it now be restored, it will leave a wound that will take ages to heal. The war Is not yet over. S. P. & S. TIME TABLE 1-Yoiit Portland Leaves Arrives Portland.

Mtdtc6t director H.W. Hlgele.MD Un our mailing lint are several hundred subscribers who are delin quent. This is partly our fault be cause statements luivo not been sent out. However, this week we are mailing notices and must ask for a prompt response. Paper is high, very high, and it costs more to run the paper than ever before, so it is neces sary for us to either collect subscrip tions or stop sending the paper to those who do not pay promptly. The! management of the Mint is endeavor- j iug to publish a clean, newsy county ! paper, and many of our subscribers! tell us we are succeeding. We ap-l predate their favorable opinions, but I it takes money to buy paper anil ink, i:o we must ask all of our delinquent subscribers to send la the amount they owe. Don't wait for the state ment to reach you, but remit now. Tho report that the chamber of commerce in Marshfield is planning on raising $50,000 to help In locating and establishing industries and fac tories In the Coos Hay country re minds us of the fact that at one time St. Helens bad a commercial club. While it was alive it accomplished something fur the town. What be came of the club is not recorded. Hut then, it is unkind to hpcnl of the dead. The decision of tho council to In-' sist on tho county court giving the; pro rata of road money raised in St. ; Helens to the St.. Helens roads is a wise move. Tho charter provides for; such ac'.lon and the supreme court; lias held such charter amendments' , to ho valid. ! 4 i! Merry Christmas!
