DAVIS SlDESTEPS HONOR
Salt Lake is without a mayor.

Salt Lake is without d mayor.
The city council last evening failed 10

whose resignation took effect at mid
night According to the statutes. the
council can select one of its number for
mayor in the absence of the chief ex-
ecutive or during his illness As the
mayor has resigned this law does not ap-
ply and there is no provision making the
president of the council mayor in such
an emergency.
The American reform element of the
council held a lengthy caucus in the Tri-
bune building yesterday afternoon. All
the councilmeq who favor "purificatiOn, "
except Councilman O'DOnnelI, were pres
ent. The situation was gone over in de-
tail and it was decided that a confer
ence with the party leaders who dictated
the election of HallOran on Wednesday
last should be held. Nearly f09 invita-
tons were sent out for q meeting which

afternoon and at which the party's can
didate for mayor will be selected.

The attitude Of Davis has been ID Sc
we're disappointment TO the insurgents
against the diCtatiOn Of the leaders. II

The Value of Charcoal
Few People Know How Usefu! II Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty
Costs Nothing to Try

Nearly everybody know that char
coal is the safest and efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature. but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of 1t the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbS the gases
and impurities always present in the
stomach and intestines and carries them
out of the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion. ii whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathar,ic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t
diSinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money Is in
Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges; tn, !e
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal and other harmless antiseptlcs
in tablet form, or rather in the form Of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges. the
charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in much improve condition
of the general health, better complex
ion, sweeter breath and purer blood and
the beauty of it is that no possible
harm can result from their continued
use but. on the contrary, great benefit
Buffalo physician, in speaking of the
beneflts OF charcoal, says: Il advise
Stuarts Charcoal Lozens es to all pa
tlents suffering from gas I'm stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ION and purify the breath mouth and
throat also believe the liver is greatly
benefited by the daily use of them; they
cost but 25c a box at drug stores. and
although in some sense a patent prep
aration, yet l believe l get more and
better charcoal In Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets"
