(or Nearly Two Years' unable to Lay in Bed “In my capacity as druggist, in Buffalo, N. Y., I have thebestopportunity to iudgi 'je of the merits of many different remedies. I am in close touch with the sick, wl who come into my store for medicines, and most of them tell me how they are getting along. Of al! the hun dreds of preparations which 1 sell, not a single one begins to give as much satisfaction as Acker’s Eng lish Remedy for Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Asthma, Pleurisy and Consumption. I sell it on a dis tinct guarantee that it will cure, or the purchaser's money will be returned. This is a perfectly safe guarantee, because the remedy /Zvi cure. Nobody wants his money returned. Its cures are nothing short of marvelous. Take the case of Mr. A. H. Gilbert, for instance. He lives at No. 5 Carey street, Buffalo, N. Y. For more than three years he had a bad case of asthma, and had been un able to lie down in bed for nearly two years. He came to my store and asked me what to do. I said: * Take Acker’s English Remedy.’ He said he had tried other reme dies and didn’t think this would help him. But he thinks differ ently now. Three bottles fixed his asthma all right. He could sleep and eat after taking them, as well as when a boy. He was cured several months ago, and is well yet, so I am certain his trouble is gone for good. You can write to Mr. Gilbert himself, if you doubt my word. He will go further than me in prais ing Acker’s English Remedy." (Signed) S. B. T horne , druggist, Buffalo, N.Y.

So far there have been but very few registered at this place, and there seems to be quite a lot of kicking about the law, as some of our old residenters that have voted here for the last 15 or 20 years cannot register, having been born in foreign countries, and having no copy of their father’s citizen papers, which is required by the law.

NO. 6 Death of .VIre. Brumbark. Harriet Maria Brumback died at the college in this city at 11 p. m. Sunday, Jan. 21st, of pneumonia, after a brief ill ness. 8he was the mother of Prof. A. M- Brumback, of the chair of sciences, and with whom she bad lived in this city the past three years. Harriet Maria Graves was born in Sun derland, Mass., Dec. lOtb, 1833. From there she removed to Granville, Ohio, where she completed her education and was converted to the Christian faith at the age of 15 years. At this place she was a teacher for the period of four years, and in 1856 was married to Prof. J. Brumback, and with him went to Frank- land, Ind., where he taught eight years in a college, until the opening of the civil war, when the college closed to permit the young men to enter the volunteer service. Mr. and Mrs. Brumback after wards moved to Indianapolis, where he was admitted to the bar and practiced until 1866, when he removed to Boise, Idaho, for the benefit of hie wife’s health. After practicing his profession for five years, he abandoned it for the good of bis own health, and invested in mines, being now engaged as mining superin tendent. Another son is living, and re sides in northern Idaho. Funeral services were held in the Bap- list church, Tuesday, at 1 p. m. The sermon was by Pastor R. W. King from the text Luke 22:42: “Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will but thine be done.” President Boardman assisted in the service. The attendance was large Tiie college held no sessions on Monday and Tuesday, and the Btudents attended the fuueral in a body, and accompanied the funeral procession to the train, which was taken by the husband and Prof. Brumback and family, who ac companied the body of deceased to Boise for interment. The pall bearers were, i. C. Chandler, Profs. Boardman, Northup, Storey and Converse, and E. W. Wallace. J. B. Clark, Peoria, III., says, ‘‘Sur geons wanted to operate on me for piles, but I cured them with DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve.” It is infallible for piles and skin diseases. Beware of counter feits. Rogers Bros. Gone Into Bankuptcy, The Reporter learns with regret that one of Yamhill county’s best citizens has been forced to the wall through an uu- fortunate business venture. The Sheri dan Sun of last week tells in the follow ing language why D. W. Ralston of that place waB forced to take advantage of the bankrupt act: "About eighteen months ago Mr. Ralston built an expensive fruit dryer at this place for the purpose of saving the product of his own orchard and also that of his neighbors. This waH an unfortu nate venture, as through the rascality of men to whom the fruit was consigned in the east be lost the entire amount of the season’s output. Since then he has been struggling against fate, finding himself unable to contend with the forces against him, has turned all bis property into the harxls of the court and like the honor able man that he baa al ways proved him self to be, retains no exemptions or any thing for himself, but will start anew in the battle of life and strive for a compe tence, though he has passed the noonday meridian of life,’’ R oyal ~ ABSOLUTELY P ure Makes the food more delicious and wholesome ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK. Want .VIy Photograph,’’ This was the desire of a good many hearts in McMinnville the past week, after the town had been canvassed by a half-dozen representatives of the Rex Portrait Co. of Chicago. It was the old “enlarged picture and frame” scheme. The company had contracted with Wal lace & Walker to furnish enlarged odo graphs to each customer w ho would buy $20 worth of groceries of them, the pic ture to be furnished when the complete purchase was made, but the contract did not specify that customers should take frames also. The town was hurriedly canvassed in a day or two, on all sorts of misrepresentations, such as that the pictures should be made at once, and could be secured before the entire $20 had been traded out; that they could be secured on cash or time purchases, and it wuold be entirely optional whether the customer took a frame or not. Near ly 100 orders were secured, and would you believe it, that in intelligent Mc Minnville, this number of people signed an agreement containing a clause re questing “Please reserve fur me one of your magnificent frames," when the de sire of every one was simply to have the oilograph? Well, they did it. But something else occurred the follow ing day that saved them from these bonds. The “main guy” of fakirs called at the grocery in a great hurry to settle up for a consignment of one hundred frames, costing $150, just unloaded at the depot, that be might proceed to the next town. Mr. Walker was not in so much of a hurry, as frames had not been nomi nated in the bond, and informed the agent that he would be arrested if he at tempted to leave town under the circum stances. The misrepresentations made on the orders taken were beginning to come to the ears of the grocers. The manager failed to get a settlement, and left after a sojourn of a day or two at the hotel. Wallace & Walker bold the frames in their wareroom as indemnity against a bill of freight paid bv them, and the signers of orders are voicing the desire expressed at the head of this arti cle. Col 11111 bus School Note*. Registration <>» Voter«. Up to Wednesday, Jan. 24th, the county clerk’s books showed the follow ing registration by precincts: Amity 9, Baker Creek 23, Bellevue 11, Carlton 10, Checowen 12, Dundee 1, East Dayton 17, West Dayton 8, Fair lawn 25, Lafayette 3, North McMinn ville 38, South McMinnville 42, North New berg 9, South Newberg 19, North Yamhill 6, North Sheridan 4, South Sheridan 2, Whiteson 5, Willamette 5, Willamina o, West Chehalem 8, total 257. The last total vote of the county was 3,323. This leaves about 3,000 voters yet to register in the next 95 days, or an average of about 30 names a day. As the limit of time draws to a close the clerk is likely to need extra help to en roll the names. The Reporter can see only one merit about this law in a county like Yamhill—it will make people fa miliar with the block or section of land on which they live and thus improve their geography. The law was clearly designed to prevent election frauds in Portland, and its scope should have been limited to that city, the only place where they occur. Our North Yamhill correspondent points out one of the objectionable features that will rise to the surface with aggravating force a little later on, and lots of people well entitled to vote are likely to be cut out through failure to register, as well as inability to meet the requirements of the law regarding naturalization pa pers. The next legislature is likely to be asked to confine the operations of the law to Portland, where it belongs. Kcal Batate Tmnilen. Week ending Jan. 23d : Juliette Johnson et al to Jas M.

Four months have passed and we will soon be half through our school year’s work. This is the only month that remain» that pupils may enter the 1st and 2d grades. The 10th grade has taken up literature and physical geography in the place of algebra and rhetoric. The reviews seem to be somewhat better this month than before. Perhaps some of the pupils realize that the end ia not far away, and if they waul to make their grades they must “dig.” The roll of honor for the 8th, 9th and 10th grades wili be published next week.
