The Rapid City journal says, jurors in
the Pennington county circuit court will
hereafter be paid a per diem of three
dollars, according to an order made this
week by Judge Levi McGee. \ jurors
pay has been two dollars per day here
tofore in this county, under both
the territorial and state governments.
At the last session of the state egisla
lature law was passed which provided
that the minimum pay for jurors in the
circuit courts Of the state should be two
dollars per day, and the maximum three
dollars. The exact amount was left to
the discretion of the presiding judge.
For number of years it has been felt
that two dollars per day was not enough
pay for a man to leave his farm or place
of business and serve on a jury. AS a
result of the low pay, every excuse pos
sible was used to escape jury service by
men who were well qualified to act
When the wages that are offered fol-
work in this vicinity are considered, s.
dollars per day is certainly not too much
to pay for public service.

You can't be well il you have a weak
unhealthy, tired out stomach. Neither
can you feel good if by some little irreg-
ularity in eating you have caused the
stomach to get out of order. These little
stomach troubles are signs of indiges-
tion, which may and very often does
turn into very bad case of dyspepsia.
Don't allow this to 60 on q single day
without doing something to overcome
it. Take some good reliable and safe
digestant like Kodol for Dyspepsia. Ko-
dol is the best remedy known today for
heart burn, belching and all troubles
arising from disordered digestion. 1t

result in Gernet Miner of Hill City,
ten year old girl, becoming cripple for
life. The little girl was swinging on
trapeze when her hold broke and she
fell, landing on her arms. Within twen-
ty-four hours both arms were entirely
paralyzed. The local physicians pro.
