IRRIGATION IN NEVADA
Geological Survey Recommends Devel
opment of Ground Water
Washington, D. C. April 10—Certain
valleys of southcMorn Nevada contain
a large supply of ground water, and
a part of this water can be economical
ly developed for irrigation, according
to a report by Everett Carpenter JUHI
issued by the United States Geological
Survey.' T'lie localities at which
ground water can br found are indicat
ed and the best methods of recovering
tihe underground water at each locality
are described. Tho report contains
also an interesting account of the ge
ology of the region nnd shows that at
one time this desert country contained
a large river nud seven large lakes, all
of which are now absolutely dry. The
ancient stream and lakes are described
nnd shown on maps for the first time
in this report. One of the most val
uable features of the report is n guide
to watering [daces on routes of travel,
supplemented by a map showing roads
aud watering places and a taible giving
the distances between watering places.
The report is published as Water
Supply Paper 365 and can be obtained
free of charge by applying to the Di
rector. United States Geological Sur
vey, Washington, D. 0. A survey of
the around water in Big Smoky Val
ley. Nev., has recently been made by
the Geological Survey and a prelimi
nary paper on that valley will be is
sued within a few months. Similar
surveys of other 'Nevada areas are (be

Taking Oare of the Children
No parent would consciously be care
less of the children. Joe Rozmarin,
Clarkson, Nebr., uses Foley's Honey and
Tar for his two children for croup,
coughs and colds. He says, "We are
never without Foley's Honey and Tar
in the house." A distressing cough,
sleepless nights, and raw, inflamed"
throat lead to a run-down condition in
which the eliild is not able to resist con
tagious or infectious diseases. Foley's
Honey and Tar is truly healing and
prompt in action. It relieves coughs,
colds, croup and whooping cough. Geo.

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lnion, I Sam. xvl, 4-IS.
Memory Ver.ee, 12, 13—Golden Text,
I Sem. xvi, 7— Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearne.
It Is certainly restful to be lu the
bauds of Him who worketh all things
after the couutiel of His own will (Epb.
1, 11) and who snys, "1 will work, and
who shall let ft" (hinder, or turn back)
tlsa. xllll, 18), provided we have no
will of our own in the mutter. Even
Sumuol seems not to have beeu fully
one with the l»rd concerning Saul, for
he continued to mourn for hlui after
the Lord had rejected him. HO that the
Lotrl had to sny td him, "How loug
wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing 1
huve rejected liirn from reigning over
Israel?" When we can say, "Even so,
Father," "Just and trmiure thy ways,"
because we are certain that "As for
God, His way is perfect" (Matt *l, 26;
Rev. xv, 3: l*s. vlll, 30), we have en
tered upon a restful life. Then its
continuance depends upon our Hying
In the perfect will of tiod moment by
momeut Note the messages to Sam
uel in verses 1-3: "I will send thee to
J ease. I huve provided me a king. I
will show thee what thou shalt do:
Anoint unto Me him whom 1 name
uuto thee." This left nothing for Sam
uel but simple obedience to Htm who ♦
was managing.
But Samuel had an objection, "If
Saul hear It he will kill mo." The
Lord quieted him, and matters pro
ceeded, and Samuel did that winch the
Lord spate aud came to Bethlehem to
meet Jesse and his sons (verses 4, 6).
The elders of the town seetned to re
gard Samuel almost as God Himself
or they must huve had very guilty con
sciences. for they trembled at his com
ing until ussured that be came peace
ably. Those who are walking with
God need have no fear of a visit from
a man of God nor of the coming of the
Lord Himself, for"it Is possible so to
abide that we shall net be ashamed
before Him at His coming (I John ii,
28). Having called Jesse and his sons,
Samuel thought that be saw in Ellnb a
fit successor to Saul, but the Lord told
him not to look on his outward appear
anco (verses 6, 7). 'When we consider
Eliab's contemptuous and uncalled for
treatment of David a little later (xvll,
28) we do not wonder that the Lord
refused him, for He knew what was
In man (John 11, 25). Seven of Jease's
sons passed before Samuel, all who
had come to meet him, but the Lord's
choice was not among them, so that
Samuel had to ask, "Are here all thy
children?" Then be learned that the
youngest bad been left at home to keep
the sheep, and Samuel said, "Send and
fetch him, for we will not sit down
till he come hither" (verses 8-11).
I am interested to know how David
felt that day when left at home and
all the other brothers went to meet
Samuel, for, knowing what we do of
David, we can easily Imagine that he
would be more desirous to meet Sam
uel than any of his brothers would,
even though there might be nothing
especially for him in It Some day in
the kingdom we may talk with him
about that particular day. I never
read or write this story or think about
It that I do not rejoice to see the
Lord's wny in it. The young man left
at home because he was seemingly of
no account ou tbls great occasion, and
then all the older brothers set aside
and compelled to wait till he came,
and then to see Samuel take the horn
of oil and anoint him In the midst of
his brethren.
I think I can hear Eliab say to some
of his brothers as they went home
ward, "The old prophet must be in his
dotage." There is nothing to It, for
they did not hoar the Lord say to Sam
uel, "Arise, anoint him, for this is he"
(verses 12, 13). The comfort I get from
it is that the Lord looketh on the
heart, not on the outward appearance,
and when he wants you for any work
He will find you and get you thete in
spite of all obstacles. It is ours to keep
quietly on minding our sheep, like Da
vid or Moses; thrashing our wheat,
like Gideon: plowing, like Elisha; doing
housework, like Mary of Nazareth;
mending nets, like Peter and John, or
whatever else Is our regular occupa
tion. The Spirit of the Lord came upon
David, but departed from Saul because
of Saul's failure to obey (13, 14). God
allows us to choose, and IX we choose
the evil and'not the good we have no
one to blame but ourselves.
By the advice of Saul's servants he
sought some one to quiet him when
the evil spirit was upon him, and they
recommended David, the son of Jesse,
as a cunning player on the harp, a
valiant man of war, a man, a
comely man, and they also said that
the Lord was with him (verses 15-23?.
Being sent for, Saul loved him greatly
and made him his nrmor bearer. How
strange It all seems! God moves In a
mysterious way. What a wonderful
chapter! How can we refrain from
saying. "Lord, take control of me and
nil my affairs and work out iti and
through me all thy good pleasure." It
would seem that Jesse was an old man
at this time, and his family consisted
of eight sons and two daughters (xvii.
12: I Chron. ii, 1Q), but David's moth
er's name is not given.
The whole story Is an Illustration of
the truth of Epb. 11. 10, that God has
the life and service of His redeemed
all planned beforehand and will work
It out If we will let Him. Sue .Tor. J. A-U
