The regular quarterly meeting of the board of trustees of the Oregon Fire Re­ lief Association was held on Tuesday of this week. The trustees were all present except Dr. O. D. Butler of Independence. The trustees are quite enthusiastic over the rapid progress the association is mak­ ing and the good work it is doing. The association has 7,590 members in the state, and Yamhill county heads the list witli more than 1,000 members. The rooms now occupied by the association are entirely too small to accommodate the clerical force that is necessary, and the rooms in the McMinnville National bank building now occupied by W. J. Strong have been leased and will be oc­ cupied by the association as soon as a vault can be built. Persons troubled with diarrhoea will be interested in the experience of Mr. W. M. Bush, clerk of Hotel Dorrance, Provi­ dence, R. I. He sava: "For several years 1 have been almost a constant sufferer from diarrhoea, the frequent attacks com­ pletely prostrating me and rendering ms untit for my duties at this hotel. About two years ago a traveling salesman kind­ ly gave me a small bottle of Chamber­ lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem­ edy. Much to my surprise and delight, its effects were immediate. Whenever I felt symptoms of the disease I would for­ tify myself against the attack with a few doses of this valuable remedy. The re­ sult has been very satisfactory and almost complete relief from the affliction.” For sale by S. Howorth & Co. NEW METHODIST CHURCH, DEDICATED DEC. IS, 1897. Heal Estate Transfers.
