Kills With Oxygen.

Liquozone is simply liquid ozygen--no
drugs, no alcoholin it. It's the discovery
OF PAUL., the great German chemist, who
spent 20 years on it. His object was to
get such an excess Of oxygen in staple
form into the blood that no germ could
live in any membrane or tissue.
Oxygen is life to an aninal-the very
source Of vitality. tits the essential part
of air. It's effects are exhilarating, purify
ing. 1t is Natures greatest tonic. But
germs are vegetables, and this excess Of
oxygen--the very life of an animals
deadly to vegetable matter. Liquozone
charges the blood with such an excess Of
oxygen that no germ can live where that
blood goes. We spend ID days in making
each bottle.

CURIOUS SENSES OF REPTILES
Their Surprising Power to Divine the
Presence of Far Distant Water.

PRESENCE or Far Distant Water.
Prof. Werner, OF Vienna, a natural
list of note, has reported the results of
observations he has been making for
some time on the senses of Inferior YER
tebrates, and he hes reached some Gu
ri~us and surprising conclusions.
The professor took all possible pre-
cautions not to let the creatures know
that they were watched. one general
fact is very evident, that reptiles and
amphibians are strongly attracted by
water. They so straight toward 1t,
even when they are ut distances so
great that they could not divine its
presence by any of the senses known
to us. 1t seems really that a sense of
which we have no knowledge informs
them of the direction in which water
may be found. There seems TO be a
sort of chemical attraction, says NJ
Werner. But how does this act. and
ON what part of the creature? This re-
mains a mystery. Reptiles also seek
the light, but independently Of heat.
They often leave comfortable and
Sight is generally good with them 1t
is probably the finest sense that they
possess, but it would still appear to be
very limited. The caymans and the
crocodiles cannot distinguish a man at
a distance of more than six times their
length, according to Werner In the
water fishes see only at very close
range-about half their own length.
This will seem perhaps unlikely to
anglers, although some of them can
cite instances showing thai fish cannot
see far. Snakes seem to have a very
mediocre sense of sight. The boa. for
example, does not see at more than a
quarter or a third of its own length.
Different species are limited TO 0ne-fifth
or one-eighth of their length Frogs are

All that medicine can do for these troubles
