If it required an annual outlay of
500 90 to insure family against any
serious consequences from an attack of
bowel complaint during the year there
are many who would feel it their duty
to pay it; that they could not afford to
risk their lives, and those of their fami-
ly for such an amount. Any one can
get this insurance for % cents, that be-
ing the price of bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. In almost every neighbor-
hood some one has died from an attack
of bowel complaint before medicine
could be procured or physician sum-
moned. One or two doses of this

FIXING THE FEES.
The Amount Allowed for Briefs OF PEN

The Amount Allowed for Briefs OF Peni.
tentia y Convicts.
The judiciary committee of the
board of supervisors composed OF
Supervisors w. K. Carey. J. e. Brit
ton and Nels Pierce, together with
States Attorney Searle, met Judge
Bigelow at the Harper last evening
to consider the allowances made un-
der Incorporation ofthe new law with
reference to the terms of prisoners
for the records of such prisoners.
The law says each county shall fur
nish to the prison board sketch OF
each convict sent from the county
to be used by the board in determin-
ing the extent of the term of service.
This item, the committee holds, cost
the county $500 at the last term OF
court, $3.50 of the amount being in
the Whistler case alone. Judge Bige-
lows construction OF the law was
that only such information as bore
upon the character of the convicted
was necessary.
The board, however. should not
dispute the expense incurred in car
rying out the state law. They should
condemn the law.
