Its Powers.
The. world moves. 80 does science. We
have long been accustomed to read that
the want of Ozone In the atmosphere was
the cause of the plae ue, of cholera, small!
pox, diptheria, spotted fever, Indeed all
those diseases which have their origin
| from vitiated condition of the air we
/ breathe How to equalize the disturbed
condition of the air we breathe to healthy
tone, or supply its health giving functions,
problem which occupied the best minds
of the medical profession in Paris. Vienna,
Berlin, Dublin and Edinburg, as well as
our own schools for gen Grafton or more.
Professor VIM A. Paine, A. M, M. D., q
highly educated and cultivated physician,
has labored assidiously 1or thirty six years
| to this cause of disease.and its REMEDY.
AS result he has discovered that dis
eases originate in germs, or In plain WorO 9,
parasites Now ifany persons are disposed
| to be sceptical on this point they can soon
be convinced by the use of powerful
microscope, that this is an absolute fact.
and not mere assertion This being SO
what could be more natural than the Doc
| tors theory, viz: $40 cure the disease
you must destroy the para sites causing it?"
DR.. Paine, after years of study, has been
able to take Ozore, the great health wing
| element of the air, and reduce 1t TO-
LIQUID form. 1t is an absolute cure for
| Catarrh, be destroying the germs causing
it. The same In regard to that fearful
scourge, Diphtheria. and this disease is SO
deadly, simply because the parasites
causing it are allowed, from the want of
proper treatment, to remain in the mem
brane, when ii they were destroyed. nature
| would in all cases dc the rest. Their de-
struction Ozone will positively accomplish.
1t produces better results in consumption
than any other known remedy, and If
used before the total destruction OF the
lungs will produce cure. The same OF

It was first discovered by schoenbein in
small quantities of 1t from Oxygen, by
means of pressure. 1t Is asserted by Loew
and Odling that Ozone contains three
atoms of fOxygen, while the latte ,has two
atoms, and that by COMPRISING it to one
third of its volume Ozone Is formed.
3zone has also been produced by passing a
series of electric sparks through oxygen
Gas; by applying Permanganate of Potas-
SO to Sulphuric Acid; by burning Phos-
phorus in Ether; or by iorcing air through
q solution of Blood, ether. Permanganate
of Potassa and Phosphorus.
Oxygen represents l-5th of the atmos-
phere; Ozone, l00Oi part. One thousand
uaurts, or 4S cubic feet of air are consumed
by person every twenty-four hours.
Schoebein named the substance which he
discovered Ozone. from the Greek word
'OZein," signifying to smell! He supposed
that it was Oxygen in an active and highly
electromagnetic state. My observations do
not warrant THESE conclusions, as sub
stances (such as Chlorate of Potassa, etc.,
that yield large quantities of Oxygen give
but little ozone, while others producing
producing little or no Oxygen yield large
quantities of Ozone. The most highly ozon-
lied organic bodies are Cedar-Wood, Pine
leaves, Blood, ETC., etc.; Of the Mineral
Salts, Alum, Sulphur, Chloride of Coda,
ETC., may be mentioned as agents yielding
Ozone in abundance. Ozone may be man
ufactured from all ozonized bodies by
chemical affinity, the evolution of organic
matter, and the rapid disintegration OF all
ozoniZed substances, either by means OF
heat, electricity or other forms of force.
Ozone is the antiseptic principle of every
substance possessing the power to preserve
animal and vegetable structures from de-
cay. The preservative and purifying quail
tiles Of Salt Carbolic Acid, Chloride of
Lime, Alcohol, ETC., are due to the presence
of Ozone.
