item went the rounds of the Nevada
press to the effect that 100000 set
aside by the legislature of 1929, for
the survey of irrigation cites and the
reclamation of sagebrush land, had
been squandered by the Commission.
The statement was not contradicted
and yesterday the Appeal editor meet
ing Mr.. Evan Williams, one of the
Commissioners, appointed under the
bill. asked hin if he had any explain

He replied that he had long ago
ceased to make explanations when
charges were made against him, but
il the Appeal editor would go to the
State Controllers books he would

A search of the records were made
with MIR. La Grave and the books

''The Tree Is known by Its Fruit" II
Is not our business to judge people, but
Il is our privilege to know them by their
lives. There 10 human goodness and u
may exist in a he that Is unseemly ana
very humble to US. A man may be q
very humble Christian, but still do his
work well. The fruit Is the test OF the
tree. Many go Though life as orna-
ments to society, when their hearts are
corrupt, We look at the outward ap-
pearance; God looks at the heart The
old tree In the orchard that brings forth
luscious fruit. though its limbs be crook
ed and unshapely, is priced much more
than the shapely tree that bears MOTH
ing but sour fruit So with the church
people; many who are very precise a. 10
forms and ceremonies have nothing OF
true goodness In them, while many
very humble have the power OF godli-
ness put there by the grace Of GOD.
We cannot make ourselves good; noth-
ing but the guace OF God can set up his
Kingdom. The Inconsistency Of the
church member is hurting the church
to-day. Either be one thing or the
other. Do not pretend TO be Christian
and live the life Of the sinner. The man
who lives a consistent, Christian life Is
never criticised. He closed by urging
an to five honest, Christian, consistent
lives. The sermon was heard by large
congregation.

SHAKERS and DOCTORS TALK TO-
GETHER.

In his able work entitled Longevity"
published a few years ago. DR.. John
Gardner OF England, predicts that a
vegetable agent will yet be found that
shall so retard those changes that bring
about old age as to prolong human life
much beyond Its present limit.
Acting, perhaps upon the impulse pro-
duced by this thought, many eminent
physicians have called from time to time
upon the Shakers of Mt Lebanon to In
qulre OF them concerning the secrets Of
medicinal plants, In which these sincere
supplemented and God-fearlng people
are known to be wise and sllillful beyond
all other men
The Shakers willingly told what they
had learned, and in return received from
their visitors much valuable information
about disease; which they at once made
practical use OF. The most important
point was that 10 genuine and certain
remedy could be found for indigestion
and dyspepsia, and the ailments growing
out OF It, long step would be taken in
the right direction. Old age. said these
physicians, begins In failure OF the di
gestlon, and so do most diseases at any
and ali periods OF life. The result Of
these consultations was the discovery by
the Shakers OF the desired specific, made
wholly from herbs, and now known as
the Shaker Digestive Cordial Its action
is magical and worthy OF Its origin.
Where there is distress after eating,
heartburn, sick headache, bad taste IN
the mouth, blliousness. weakness and
WEAKNESS cold hands and feet, aversion
10 food, nervousness, or any other Symp-
tom Of dyspepsia, the Cordial will prove
lis curative virtues. Behind 1t is the
reputation Of people who have never
defrnuded or deceived their fellow men.
In order to test whether this remedy Is
adapted to your case, at practically no
cost, you may procure trial bottle for
Ten cents Of almost any druggist.
