V
I Right at the Moutta of the Columbia River
That OIL and natural GAS have been discovered in paying quantities across the Columbia River from Astoria at Onieda,
Washington, has been important enough to a number of well-known reliable parties'to cause the organization of the Pacific
Coast Gas & Oil Co., with a capital stock of $300,000. This company has just placed a'number of shares of stock on the market
at the low price of $50.00 per share. READ ON--

What the Company Is
The Pacific Coast Cat & Oil Co. it
compelled of reliable buiineii men of
Oregon and Washington whose only
purpose li to develop the property to
the best of iti ability and produce a
paying mine of oil and gai that all
who have purchased atock may share
in iti profits. The officers serve with
out salary and include among them
some of the most reputable citizens
of the State. To make the company
strong on account of its brilliant fu
ture it has aecured leases on over
fiOOO acrea of land. It has obtained
the highest expert authority on the
geological formation of the land,
employed the strongest expert work
men to operate the drilling apparatus
and given such other evidence of good
faith to warrant any man making an
investment with them.

R. A. Wade, vice-president
Directors John Nelson, Oneida,
Wash.; Geo. L Hutchins, Portland;
Wm. Anderson, Deep Kiver, Wash.
The plant is now
in constant opera
tion. The drilling
is being done under
the supervision of
two expert oil well
operators. You can
see them at work
any day of . the
week at Oneida
right opposite As
toria. The picture opposite is

actual operation.

If you have any
doubt as to the sta
bility of the com
pany, or in the
manner in which
itjs operating, be-
fore you make any
investment visit
the property any
day and satisfy
yourself. Oil and
gas will be found
in paying quanti
ties. After the
i"rike" :itwill be
too late pon buy
stock. Do it NOW,
i
StocK for Sale
For Development Pa 03e
The per value of the stock is $100
per share, but is now offered at one
half ($30) and it is worth it The
company has already sold a limited
amount of stock, equipped the prop
erty with the best working machinery
in the world and it has plans for a
great future. The money secured
from the sale of stock will be to push
the work. Every dolar will be used
to prepare for the best interest of the
company. As the drill goes down the
stock will surely rise. The price it is
now offered at will only be a short
time. A good rule is to let oppor
tunity in when it knocks at the door.
For an investment there is nothing
more tangible, brighter or more surer
dvidend paying than this stock, par
ticularly at $50 per share ' Don't wait
until it goes to par, but buy now. It
is really a chance that comes seldom.

days of the Spanish War has a sharp
and wide a call ben made upon the
civilian soldiers here as that which
has hustled off hundreds of train
loads of volunteers to keep pace with
the regulars down the bay and up at
Pine Camp. Real work, in steady and
large doses, is being meted out to
the swells of the crack troops from
this city; and while they manoevre
under the stern eye of regular army
oflicers, the clubs, cafes and promen

these occasional troopers are game,
is being reported from the army

the metropolitan clubman has shown

gang is behind little Herbert Weis

for a startling career of burglary, the
detectives have not yet found, It is
believed that during a term in the re
formatory last year the youngster
formed associations which have allied
him for life with a strong gang of
criminals. In this case the judges are
shaking their heads and predicting
that it is too late to take from the
rosy-cheeked boy the taint and habit
of crime. In hundreds of other cases,
they point out, citizenship in" the
George Junior Republic up at Free

criminal exploits of boys taken in

The
General Demand
of the Well-informed of the World has
always been for a simplo, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative romedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and tndy beneficial in effect,
acceptable to tho eystom and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical linos and relies
on the merits of tho laxative for its remark
able success. "
That is one of many reasons why

youthful burglar of the pounds of

WEAVING A WAY.
Over two tiny strands of wire, that
have just been strung between the
gigantic steel towers of the new
Manhattan Bridge, the spinning of
this monster viaduct has been begun
to-day. Wire by wire, strand by
strand and cable by cable, the whole
hanging structure is to be woven high
in air over the broad East River. For
the better part of two years it is ex
pected that this ceaseless shuttling of
fresh wire into woof and web will i
go on before another highway lies
open between Brooklyn and Manhat

years the skeleton of the present

Bed-ridden Sufferer Completely Cured
by Use of D. D. External Wash.
One of the most remarkable Ecze
ma cures recently credited to the
well known D. D. D. Prescription has
just been recorded in Chicago.
Mrs. E. Hegg, 1550, West Madison
street, under date of December 9,
1907, writes as follows:
"I suffered three years with Weep
ing Eczema. It started with a little
spot on my knees and spread fast
over my whole body. I spent hun
dreds of dollars and went to every
good doctor I heard of, but kept
getting -worse. Nothing would stop
the awful itch and burning.
"I had to stay in "bed from the
middle of May to the middle of July.
Then I tried D. D,' D. Prescription.
This is the 9th of December and I am
entirely free from the terrible dis
ease. D. D. D. saved my life.
"When I began this treatment,
people were afraid of me I looked so
terrible. My husband was the only
one who would take' care of me. D.
D. D. stopped the itch at once so I
could sleep, which I had not done
before. Then I began to get bet
ter fast and now my skin is clear
and white, not a spot anywhere."
Just a few drops of D. ' D. D.
Prescription applied to the skin
brings retief nothing to swallow or
drink. We vouch for D. D. D. Pre
scription, also the cleansing D. D. D.

any skin disease. Begin your cure
