Jurors in attendance upon tbe Court of Common Pleas during the past two weeks have shown their interest in tbe Odd Fellows' home which is to be erected here, by donating their "jury dollar" to the fund being raised for the orphanage. ''The jary dollar" is the result of an old and honored custom handed down by the English common law Immediately after a verdict is rendered, the party in who favor the juiy has decided, steps up and hands the foreman a dollar in appreciation. The money is supposed and doubtless generally is, used as a utreat" for the men on the panel, but the Greenville jurors during the past term decided to donate the money to a- most worthy charitable purpose by giving it for the Odd Fcllowc' heme. Ic is thought that other juries will follow the example and in ! the course of several years the sum will be one well worth considering in the support of the home. Serious Stomach Trouble Cured.
