New Telephone Stations

Public long distance telephone stations have lately been
established at EAGLE MINE and WINCHESTER BAY.
Eagle Mine is on the Bandon-Coos Bay road, about three
miles north o f the Coquille River ferry. The Platina Y Oro
Mining Company is the agent.
Winchester Bay is the summer resort near the mouth o f the
Umpqua river, where extensive jetty construction has lately
been started. Postmaster L. S. Weeks is the agent.

I have moved my meat Market from the corner of

I will be better able than ever to cater to the needs

Soon Over Hi* Cold
Everyone speaks well o f Chamber-

used it. Mrs. George Lewis, Pittsfield,
N. Y., has this to say regarding it:
“ Last winter my little boy, five years
old, w m sick with a cold for two or
three weeks. 1 doctored him and used
various cough medicines but nothing
did him -much good until I began using
Chamberlain’ s Cough Remedy.
He
then improved rapidly and in a few
days was over his cold.”
