THE NIMBLE COIN.
The nimble coin of the country neve

a man with a well -cooked and health
j ful meal of the sort he is hungry for. In
I this instance is becomes a blessing, and
no pocketbook is the poorer for the ex
penditure; this is why everyone you
see coming out of the Palace Restaurant
carries such a grateful and satisfied ex
pression of countenace. Just watch for
a day or so, and the first thing you know
you'll be a steady customer there, i It
is one of the certaintiies of Astoria life.
GENTLEMEN, ATTENTION I
Astoria should have a seawall, and a
it cannot be bought in Portland or Chi
cago it evidently must be built here.
Now, If the gentlemen of this city would
commence to have their clothes "built"
in Astoria and become reconciled to
having things made at home, they would
have no difficulty in building the sea
wall. E. Martinson, merchant tailor, 149
Eleventh street, will build your clothes
from the best that's made to the cheap
est that's good. lw.
