Thursday of last week little
Millicent Crother lost a pin con
taining pictures of her mamma

feels very badly about it. If the
finder will leave it at this office
or at the harness shop they will
confer a great favor on the little
lady.
Col. T. J. Majors, of Peru, was
in the city last evening, en route
home from Omaha where he was
attending the republican state
convention. The republicans of
Nemaha county every now ,and
then try to join hands with out
siders and down the Major, but
he always bobs up serenely and
proves to be the biggest fish in
the puddle. Hehas got some
of the would-be politicians in the
vicinity of Peru out in the brush
hidding and when they return
they will find ' they have been
shorn of some of their plumage

Mr. Norman R. Coulter, a prominent
architect, in tho Delbert Bnikling, San
Francisco, says: "Ifully endorse all that
has been said of Electric Bitters as a
tonic medicine. It is good for every
body. .It corrects stomach, liver aiid'
kidney disorders in a prompt and effici
ent manner and builds up the system."
Electric Bitters is the best spriug med
icine ever sold over a druggist's count
er; as a blood purifier it is unequrlcd.

their reelection come from these
gentlemen themselves, who think
they have served their country
long enough. But they will prob
ably be reelected unless they say
positively they will not serve.
Alf Rowen, who went to Col
orado two weeks ago, has taken
a homestead of 160 acre3, a mile
and a half from Laird, Colorado,
the first station on ,the Burling
ton west of the Nebraska line.
He has a good quarter section,
with running water on one cor
ner, and is well pleased with the
country. At present he is work
ing on a ranch for a wealthy
farmer and cattle feeder. He
will probably not go on his home
stead until about the first of Sep
tember.
ably the largest Sunday school
class in the county. Atareceat
reception given the class ty rtfits
teacher and Miss Minnie May,
the superintendent of the Christ
ian Sunday school, there were
fifty-five members of the class
present.
In company with other leading
republicans and TstatesmenClike
Frank Woodward and Nat Titus,
we have been invited to a ban
quet, to be given in honor of Hon.
William Howard Taft by the Mc
Kinley club of Omaha, on theev-.
ening of April 6. But as all who
attend are required to send in
the price of their share of the
banquet, which is $2 per plate,
and as editors are now required
to .pay '.railroad fare the same as
Common people, we will probably
let Frank ' and Nat attend and
get our enthusiasm second hand.
Our old friend E. A. Bourne
has finally broke into the news
paper business. He is now editor
of the American, a weekly paper
started the first of this month at
Comanche, Okla. Of course it is
a red hot republican sheet. G.
W. Fairbrother, jr., whom we re
member as "Gee," a little fellow
when we knew him last, is the
head of the mechanical depart
ment. The American speaks of
G. W. Fairbrother, sr., making
the office a call. As this is the
Geo. Fairbrother who was al
ways G. W. Fairbrother, jr., up
here, it took a little time for us
to getlstraightened out and know
which was which. We hope Bro.
Bourne will have abundant suc
cess in his enterprise. We notice
that he is a director in a national
bank of Comanche, so probably
he willCnot have so much trouble
in paying the help as most of us
do.

Coffee Critic, who "knows fine Coffee
on taste.and flavor," quietly make for
him a batch of 'Dr. Shoop's "Health

ceiyed Mrs. Shoop, and will I believe
deceive any one. And there is not a
grain of real Coffee in it. Health Cof
