Hoover, ran a splinter in her toot over five weeks ago It was thought all the splinter was extracted, al though the foot remained a little sore, causing her to walk on one side of the foot. But the latter part of last week it festered and became quite painful. Dr. Fraz ier examined it and discovered a part of the splinter was in there yet, and got it out. The piece over an inch in length, almost as large as a match, and was as smooth as if it had been polished. The piece was hard pine. It is hoped Velma will have no more trouble. A New Firm.

KEELING An Old Settler Samuel Stiers, who is now nearly 77 years of age, has spent over 52 years of that time in Ne maha county. He landed in Brownville April 8, 1855, and the next day went to work for Richard Brown, the founder of Brownville, cutting wood at $20 per month. June 22 of the same year he was married to Miss Nancy Swift, Rev. Joel Woods, a Christian minister, performing the ceremony, this being the first marriage of white people in Nebraska. His bride had landed in Nebraska a few days after he did. They got acquainted at once and soon concluded that they would be happier together than any other way, and have never had occasion to change their minds. After over 52 years of married life they are of the same opinion. Mrs. Stiers' half sister, Lizzie Miller, afterward married Amos Bacon, and they now live in London precinct. Mr. Stiers and Mrs. Bacon met at. the oUl settlers picnic for the first time in over forty years, and greatly enjoyed talking over old times together. Another old timer who came to Nebraska about the same time that Mr. btiers did, and who was at the picnic, was Hugh Baker. Mr. Stiers works as hard at farming as a man of half his age, but says he almost gave out pitching wheat for two teams during the hot weather recently. He keeps his health and strength to a remarkable degree for his age.

ELMER E. ALLEN, Cashier FRANK TITUS, Aee't Cash Capital, $5,000 With Ample Facilities any Get ready for the homecoming at Brownville Aug. 29. Prof. J. W. Searson, a member of the Peru faculty, was arrested a few days ago charged with criminal assault upon Miss Kath erine Hudson, a pupil of the school. It is alleged the assault was committed in April. Prof. Searson when brought before the county judge at Auburn en tered a plea of not guilty, waived a preliminary examination and was held to the district court in the sum of $1000 bond, which he immediately gave and was re leased. The case will be on for trial at the term commencing September 23. Prof. Searson is one of the ablest and best known educators in the state. We do not believe he is guilty of the charge made against him. It is said there is insanity in the family of the young lady making the charge. She was very much incensed at the professor because he would not pass her at the close of school, and it is thought this charge is made for that reason. The Limit of Life The most eminent medical scientists are unanimous in the conclusion that the generally accepted limitation of human life is many years below the attainment possible with the advanced knowledge of which the race is now possessed. The critical period, that determines its duration, seems to be between 50 .and 60; the proper care of the body during this decade cannot be too strongly urged; carelessness then being fatal to longevity.
