Secretary Holmes said that lie had talked with most of the manufacturers about the necessity of having the exhibits all com pleted by the close of the present week , so that there would bo uo hitch on the opening night mill that they wcro all fully aware of the importance of bciugroady on timo. Some of the firms are preparing to work nights on their exhibits. It was stated that it always rcquivutl more time to complete an exhibit than estimated at first , but that all the firms that made exhibits last .year learned that fact at that time.

As a result of Mayor Bemts' veto tlio coun cil may rescind its former action in locating seven fire hydrants along an obscure road "to the Gibson school. An effort is now uelng made to induce tlio witter works I'omp.iny to lay the main and put in three or four hydrants for the present. With this idea in view Councilmen Hiiscall , Howcll , Specht ami Jncobson held a conference with Receiver llust and Superintendent Hunt of the company. The matter was pretty thoroughly gone over. Under the terms of the contract between the city and the company , when a now water service is ordered the hydrants along the Hue must bo located not more than 400 feet apart , for which the city pays nn annual rental of ? GO per hydrant. The proposed line of pipe from Bancroft street to the Gib son school is 2,800 feet , which means that before the company would put in the line SOVCH hydrants must bo located. Coun cilman Huscall admitted that if four hydrants were located the service would bo satisfactory for the present , and those who do not favor the scheme any that beyond tlio one at the school none of the rest nro required , ah they will bo located In the timber , where there nro no houses , Superintendent Hunt of the water works company estimates that It will cost about $ 2,81)0 to lay a six-inch pipe from Bancroft street to the Gibson school. Ifo also-.sn.js that there would bo hut a slight dlffercnco in thu cost of putting in u four-inch pipe nnd the six-inch , Monday afternoon the members of the committees on lire and water nnd streets ami alleys , composed of Prince ami Ifnscnll and Howcll , MeAudrows nnd Jacobson , de voted most of the day In going over the pro posed route of Mr. Hasenll' " water service to the school house. Without exception the members say that the city should provide water for the people In that part of the city. The conclusion that the members now desire , to reach is what Is the best and most economical plan to gut the water there , At least live of them believe that if the pro posed concession from the water company At all times should a sick person have the best of care. At no time should more be ex ercised than during the period of recovery the time of con valescence. Strength is needed then , That is given by the food eaten , that is , if it digests well. Notice how the doctor inquires about how the food agrees with the patient. Agrees means digests. Johann Hoff's Malt Extract helps digestion ; is so palatable , That's the reason so frequently the only malt exlract given is Johann Hofl's.
