tensive railway and mining Interests

tho El Paso and Southeastern Rail
way, as well as a great many exten
sive mines. Tho particular feature
which attracted theso gentlemen to
Coos Bay was the coal deposits. They
made a brief inspection and investi
gating trip to a few of tho undevel
oped coal fields, and while not ex
pressing themselves definitely as to
tho results of their investigation,
they manifested an Interest in the
matter which may develop later, tfl

Well Tailored and Popular Pi iced from

In no previous season have the
styles shown in our Suit Salon been
commented upon so much as the ones
we are now showing for spring and
summer.
The new Butterfly styles, tho Pa
plllion designs and the Etonnettes
lead, in the strictly fashionablo cre
ations. The colors most favorably
thought of aro Copenhagen, leather,
navy and black, closely followed with
browns, wines and old rose.
A feature particularly noticeable
in our spring garments is the excel
lent tailoring. Our women's suits
are made by ono of New York's most
exclusive women's tailoring houses.
Every garment Is rigidly designed to

tions of fashion.

you that no other woman in tho vi

special advantages In selecting your

dentally you will substantially help
the Beautiful America Club In their
undertakings.
As by magic, the Beautiful America Club has come into public notice, The re
suits of their efforts have already been seen, and, it is -a foregone conclusion that
before they cease their labors, North Bend will have been transformed into a beau
tiful city of roses and shrubbery.
Every citizen should be in hearty accord with the work of this club, and we
believe they are, The enthusiasm with which these ladies are entering upon their
tasks, cannot fail to imbue in the hearts of all a civic pride,
To carry on a cleaning-up campaign, such as has been planned, it will require
large sums of money, No good and effective work can be done without money, and
the more money, the more effective and thorough the campaign,
That we may contribute to the financial support of this good work, the Myers
Store has set aside Saturday, February 29th,, On this day five per cent of all sales
will be given to the Beautiful America Club. The club will have its various com
mittees here to meet you and assist in the selection of merchandise, as well as en
tertain you and serve dainty luncheon.
