ALMOST A MIRACLE

One of the most startling changes
eyre seen in any man, according to
w. B. Holsclaw, Clarendon, Tex, was
effected years ago in his brother. He
had such dreadful cough" he
writes, "that all our family thought
he was going into consumption, but he
began to use DR.. Kings New Discov-
cry, and completely cured by ten
bottles. Now he is sound and well and
weighs 2lS pounds. For many years
our family has used this wonderful
remedy for Coughs and Colds with ex-
cellent results" It's quick, safe, re
liable and guaranteed. Price so cents
and $1.00. Trial bottle free at Eagle

GOVERNMENT SETS
OFF annual JOKE

With the advent of warm weather
each spring, the government springs its
regular annual Winnemucca postoffice
joke. This year George H. Austin. a
postoffice inspector residing at Reno,
is advertising for 1900 feet floor
space, with frst-class daylight, heat,
light, water, toilets, safe, vault, and all
necessary furniture and equipment,
bids to be received up to and includ-
ing June 10.
For all of this, provided it is cen
trally located, it is expected the gov
ernment might be induced to part
with $50 per month. Several of our
local property owners have gone over
this matter before now with the gov
ernment officials and arrangements
would probably have been closed had
it not been for the Tact that the gov
eminent would not guarantee to lease
the building for any length of time,
owing to the fact that ederal build
ing for Winnemucca was among the
possibilities. However, that objec-
tion seems to have been overcome, as
the bid this year calls for lease of
from five to ten years.
