We may not accept their peculiar re-

spirit of their sacrifices. 1t is not nee
essary to believe as they do, but we can
and do respect their sincerity of pur-
pose and the honor and uprightness
which marks all their business deal

The Shakers have always been sue
cessful inventors, and some of the great
est eonVenienoes of the present day
found origin in their settlements,
In one particular they excel all other
men or classes of men, and that is in
cultivation of medicinal herbs and
plants and their preparation for use.
They have made it a study for more
than one hundred years. 1t is one of
their peculiar industries. Their lives
have been devoted to 1t,
Their latest and greatest achieve
ment is the Shaker Digestive Cordial,
1t is not offered as a cure for all dis
eases. 1t does not pretend to be, but
one disease it will cure, and that is in
digestion.
Sufferers who resort to its. use have
not long to wait to see the result. The
effect is almost Immediate. The first
dose usually gives relief and if contin-
ued a permanent cure will follow,
1t not only contains already digested
food, but it digests food as WELL thus
toning up the general system. An in
teresting pamphlet is now being issued
by the Shakers and can be had for the
asking at almost any drug store.
Try 25-cent bottle of Digestive Cor
dial and see what it will do for you.

From what we are able to learn the
amount of securities presented this year
is much less than the average of the
past five years. Considerable of the de-
cline is due to the collection or foreclos-
ure of western loans. When western
loan has been in default two or three
years the owner is very unlikely to con-
slider the principal as money at inter

on so uncertain investment.
