Shenandoah is indeed fortunate in hav-
ing among its list of professional men such
a class of physicians as we can proudly
boast of. All are meeting with much sue
cess in the practice of their profession, but
1 note one among the rising young doctors
who have just hung out their shingle, DR..
NJ. S. Kistler. Although it is but recently
since he located here, learn that his
practice is daily increasing, and why
should it not ? He is courteous and oblig-
ing, and his abilities as physician is at
tested to by his increasing practice. l
predict brilliant future for this young
man.

Miss Annetta Daisey, whose record as
the dashing leader of "sooners" has
reached the Atlantic coast, is Ken
lucky girl. For twelve years she was a
teacher at Port Oldham in that state.
She subsequently went to Louisville,
where she taught in the public schools
and until she quarreled with the trus-
tees. She then went into politics and
was twice defeated as candidate for
state librarian. She next appeared in
Washington, seeking a position, and
with letters of recomnendation from all
the prominent men worth knowing she
secured the appointment as teacher for
one of the Indian schools,
When Oklahoma was thrown open
Miss Daisey was in the front rank. Her
own description of her exploit, in which
she jumped from train, and falling on
her knees fired two revolvers in the air,
exclaiming, ''Thus salute the Kentucky
Daisey's claim" is most thrilling. Such,
indeed, are all her adventures, and the
kilograms she sends announcing them to
the newspapers make blood curdling
reading. Instead of writing dime novels,
as Miss Daisey is perfectly competent tc
do, she prefers to live them. She is aus
restless and as daring as a cowboy
warm hearted, true to her friends, and
absolutely upright in character. She is
bronzed by sun and wind, but still a
handsome woman.-Chicago Herald.
