THE BEST
APERIENT

In modern pharmacy is, undoubted-
ly, Ayers Cathartic Pills. Except
in extreme cases, physicians have
abandoned the use of drastic purga-
tives, and recommend a milder, but
no less effective medicine. The favo-
rite is Ayers Pills, the superior
medicinal virtues of which have
been certified to under the official
seals of state chemists, as well as
by hosts of eminent doctors and
pharmacists. No other pill so we'll
supplies the demand of the general
public for safe, certain, and agree
able family medicine.

used; and in my judgment no better general

Encouraging Letters Received from Den
yer and Other Cities.
Several members of the committee APP
pointed on Feb. IS, to solicit subscrip-
lions, formulate invitations and arrange
a programme for the proposed Sanitary
congress in this city during the month of
Nav. met at the council chamber last
evening.
Those present were Mayor Baskin, M. .
II. Beardsly, o. II. Hardy, Hugh Ander-
son and Drs. Beatty and Root.
DR.. Beatty presented two circular let
tiers, designed as invitations to be sent out
to the health authorities and physicians
of the western cities, and stating for what
object the conference was to be held. The
doctor also read letters which he had re-
ceived from Denver and other cities, in
which the writers expressed themselves
as feeling assured that much good would
result from meeting of this character.
Mr.. Hardy, reporting for the financial
committee stated that he had been quite
busy and had not succeeded in raising a
very large amount.
Doctor Beatty and Doctor Root both
felt confident that the medical societies
would not be found wanting in the matter
of donations, but Mayor Baskin deemed
the financial part of the arrangements the
most important OF all, and moved that an
adjournment be taken until Wednesday
evening when full report will be made.
The motion carried and all parties were
instructed to use their utmost endeavor
to have every portion of the DrogI anime
in a tangible form by Thursday evening
when it is hoped that definite arrange
ments Will be made for the holding of the
congress.

hibit-Thanks from the Ladies.

Secretary Mcdaniel, of the Utah Worlds
Fair commission, will leave for Chicago
this morning, and his Office will hereafter
be IN the Utah building. His presence by
the LIST Of March Is imperative, Tor the
space assigned Utah in the various build
ings is likely to be forfeited unless taken
possession of.
General Agent Alonzo Young will here
after have charge of the work in this city,
and his headquarters are 2O9 South West
Temple street, where exhibits are re-
ceiyed. The shipments Of goods will be
pushed as rapidly as possible.
Utah s mineral pavilion in the mining
building is ready to be put in place. The
large columns that support it are all of
Utah stone. i column of onyx is being
polished, but it is doubtful whether it
will be finished in time. Altogether,
Utah's mining exhibit will cost about
$4,000, and it will be one of the best at the
fair.
Miss Edith Weller, Mr.. McDanieps pri-
yate secretary, also goes TO Chicago to re-
main until the fair is over. Miss Emily
Cloves, chief clerk of the bureau of in
formation, will remain at the headquar-
tiers IN this city for the present.
