ditorium. Tn this space 100 folding chairs will be placed. In this audi torium the regular meetings of the board will be held beside many special meetings. A series of lectures or rather talks on the Salt River valley in all its phases will be given there. There will be two of these talks a week, given by prominent men. They will be short and well advertised be- fore hand so that a good attendance may be assured. They are more for the visitors and colonists who may come here this winter than for those already familiar with the products and development of the valley. Among the early speakers will be General A. J. Sampson and Dr. J. w. FOss. In their former quarters there was not room enough in the board of trade rooms. There was not room enough for such features as those proposed for the com ing winter.
 The southeastern corner of the room will be used for the directors and sec retary's office. It will be partitioned off and directly behind it the long counter will be placed, making an en- closure for the general workroom, typewriters, etc. The rest of the space not occupied by the auditorium will be given over to exhibits.
 All of the central pillars of the room are to be surrounded by octOgon- shaped stands covered with green burlap. On this background will be tackled the tall sheaves of wheat, barley and other valley grains, in pie uresque profusion.
 A part of the basement only will be used for the purposes of the board of trade. One room has been partitioned off, and is to the fruit preserver what a dark room is to a photographer. It is here that the chemicals are mixed, the fruits and vegetables preserved and then placed in absolute dark for a period of three, or four months In this way only, by keeping the fruit from the light for long time can it be pre- served with any degree of certainty. The rest. of the basement not used by the board is for rent

When the papers are full of ad- vertisements for this or that great tonic. people are apt to be tempted to try them, but it does not take long to discover that after all there is nothing equal to SeXine Pills foI any form of nerve weakness in men and women. We seldom find any body who can say he or she was cured by this or that wine, extract or liquor, but almost any one can tes- tify to the great nerve and body building qualities of Sexine Pills. Sexine Pills are absolutely guaran- teed. Each box has a cash coupon in it. They cost s1 a box, boxes for $5. Four months treatment for s5.
