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
