of Columbia county and well known
to most of our people, died at On
tario, Malheur county, Monday.
Mrs. Rhodie Noah, of thi place, was
taken in ihe nigbt with cramping
pains and the next day diarrhoea tel
in. She took half a bottle of black
berry cordial but got no relief. She
then sent to me to see if I had any
thing that would help her. I tent her
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Chol
era and Diarrhoea Keinedy and the
first dose relieved her. Another of
our neighbors had been tick for about
a week and bad tried different reme
dies for diarrhoea but kept getting
worse. I sent him thia same remedy.
Only four doses ot it were required to
cure him. He aaya he owe his re
covery to thi wonderful remedy.

be shut off and opened immediately
after the pumping stops. There will

prove satisfactory.
