Salt Lake, Utah, August 1.-THE
Grand Lodge of Ilks today adopted the
recommendation of the Committee OH
Rules and Laws, absolutely prohibiting
the holding of street fairs or carnivals
under the auspices of the Elks lodges.
The law will not go into effect until
January 1, 1903. The debate o. er the
question was spirited, but the feeling
among the members of the Grand Lodge
that such fairs and carnivals were not in
accord with the fundamental principles
of the order was evidently very strong
and the committees recommendations
were overwhelmingly adopted
Today's outdoor program consisted of a
prize drill contest of uniformed march

No other remedy invented by man has
ever received as much praise from men
of high station as Peruna. Over forty
members Of Congress have tried it and
recommended it to suffering humanity.
They use it themselves to guard against
the effects OF the intense strain of public
life; to ward off the i'll effects of the
changeablc climate Of Washington.
They keep it in their homes for family
use. They recommend it to their neigh
bors, and they do not hesitate in public
print to declare their appreciation and
endorsement of this greatest Of modern
remedies.

To lie at the point of death for
