Mrs. Leslie Butler, wife of the well
known banker, died at her home in
this city, Wednesday January 8, after
somewhat extended illness, sur
rounded by most of the mem bers of
her family. Foi some time it had
been known that she was in a critical
condition and her death was not un-
expected.
The funeral took place here Friday
morning, being largely attended and
the services we're conducted by Rev.
j. v. Sprecher, assisted by Rev. W.
G. Gilmore and Rev. j. l.. Hershner.
At its conclusion the body was taken
to the station, the pail bearers being
Messrs e. e. Goff, G. r. Bone, A. s.
Blowers, E. L. Smith, G. +. Waldo

the train.
At The Dailes another service was
held III Crandall's undertaking par
lors, Rev. d. V. Polling, of the Con
gregationa church, conducting the
service, drawing very comforting sug-
gestion from the words LET not your
hearts be troubled. Ye believe In
God, believe also in Me. In My Faith
er's house are many mansions; If it
we're not so l wonld have told you. l

Mrs. Buffers maiden name was Car

cock county, Illinois, April 16, 1850.
When quite young her parents moved
to Kansas where she met Mr.. Butler
and on November 10, 1867, they we're
married. Six children we're born to
them, four of whom survive her and

of Hood River.
In 1880 the family came to Oregon
and for many years resided ut The
DalIes where Mrs. Butler was promi.
nently identified with church, tenn
perance and charitable work and was
an officer and one OF the most effic-
lent workers in the W. @. L. U. OF
that city. During the latter years Of
her life i'll health had prevented Mrs.
Butler from continuing the wori.
which she had generously and un.
ceasingly taken up for the benefit oil
humanity, and sorrow made her life
one of sadness. But firm in her faith
she fought bravely on until the sleep
came that has no awakening, and
which brings that peace of which
there is no underst anding.

"Before We can sympathize with

ing attendant upon an attack of the
grip unless he has had the actual ex.
perence. There is probably no disease
that causes so much physical and men
tai agony, or which SO successfully de-
fies medical aid. All danger from the
grip, however, may be avoided by the
prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Among the tens Of Thousands
who have used this remedy, not one
case has ever been reported that has re-
suited in pneumonia or that has not re

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear, There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutionai remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infiamed condition OF the mucas lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is infiamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when IL Is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever. Nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but
faces.

case of Deafness (caused by catarfh1 that can.
