A Terrible GOn.El.

How often we hear the above re-
mark during these extreme changes
of weather. Colds, Coughs and Sore
Threats were never more prevalent
among children than now. Now We
are going to urge you to try n remedy
which has excited comments by ply
sicians all over the country, who ac-
knowledge their surprise at the Won
derful and happy results from its use.
That remedy is the well-known prep
aralion. HALE'S COUGH CORDI-
AL. Your own druggist, }. w. Tut
hill, will tell you that it is the best
cough medicine he ever sold; or will
warrant a cure or return your money

half the bottle. 1t is very pleasant to
the taste, making ii q very desirable
remedy for children. 40-6m

SKELETON IN THE TREASURY.-One
of the most pertinent paragraphs we
have lately observed is in regard TO the
great necessity for some legislation in
this State of Iowa which shall prevent
so much litigation ut the expense of
the respective counties. After saying
that the present general consideration
of this question is one of the healthy
signs of the times, the writer to whom
we refer continues as follows:
1t is getting to be the prevailing
opinion that lawsuits which are not
in the interest of the public and do not
protect the public or help the public
in any manner whatever, should not
be paid out of the public money. If
lawsuits are luxury, let those pay
for them who enjoy them. As the
thing is managed at present, it is not
uncommon to witness Il Judge, a Re-
porter, a Clerk, Shorthand "A deputy,
Bailiff or so, and dozen jurymen,
giving their undivided attention for
| days to the legal adjustment ofa dis
pute which after all will not benefit
anybody to the amount of fifty cents.

expense IL the skeleton in the treasu-

ESCAPED PRIsoNERS.-Four pris-
oners escaped from the Anamosa pen
itentiary last week Tuesday. They
effected an escape by means Ola trench
that was being dug from the peniten-
tiary building out to the enclosure
which was to bc used rs a drain. The
prisoners jumped into the ditch and
crawled to the high fence which en-
closes the prison and, once there, were
able to knock off several boards with
stone hammer which they had in
their possession, before the guards
were able to make any resistance.
When outside the enclosure their
escape was easy as thick undcrbrush
Is near by. The escaping prisoners
were Thos. Cummins, George Wood
ward, Thomas Kyle and John Philips.
The last mentioned man has relatives
