Not Later Than May.

NEW YORK, Feb. civilian Nelson
Cromwell, counsel to the New Panama
Canal Company, who has just returned
from Washington, says that he expects
the treaty to come to a vote and to be
ratified within twenty days, although
the legal formalities incident to the clos
ing of the transfer in Paris and on the
isthmus may consume thirty days ad-
ditional.
Mr.. Cromwell says the payment, which

by remittance to Paris, will be so ar
ranged, through Secretary Shaw's CO.
operation. as TO cause no financial dis
turbance.
The suit brought by the government
OF Colombia against the company in
Paris to prevent transfer. has been ex-
pedited SO that the first hearing will
come on February IL. Mr.. Cromwell be-
neves the court will dismiss Colombia s
pretensions as unfounded in law.

We Offer $1,000

For a disease germ that Liquozone can
not kill.
This offer is published on every bottle
of Liquozone; but nobody ever claimed
the reward, and nobody ever Will.
Liquozone always kills germs.
Please note what that fact means. All
that is necessary 10 cure a germ dis
ease is TO kill the germs. That is GER
tain; and it is just as certain that the
disease will never end while those germs
exist. Liquozone taken internally goes
wherever the blood goes-into every cell
OF every tissue. No germ can escape
it. and none can resist IL. Can you not
see that the results are inevitable?

Medicine Can't Cure

icine is almost helpless in any germ
disease. The utmost it can do is to act
as a tonic. aiding nature to overcome
the germs. Such results are indirect
and uncertain. depending on the pa
TENTS condition. A cure IS always
doubtful and often impossible. And the
cures that do result are due to nature
not to medicine. A cure can't come un-
til those germs are killed. and medicine
never kills inside germs.
These diseases were long attributed
to other causes than germs, and medi-
cine was used to doctor them. Up to
the year 1880 germs were almost un-

Acts Like Oxygen

Liquozone is the result Of a process
which. for more than twenty years. has
been the constant subject Of scientific
and chemical research The process
consists in generating gases. made In
large part from the best oxygen pro-
ducers. These gases are confined under
pressure and. by the employment OF I'm
mense apparatus and fourteen days
time. are made part Of the liquid prod
uct
The result IS a product which does
what oxygen does. Oxygen. as you
know. is the vital part OF air. 1t is
the very source of vitality. the most
essential eiemeLC Of life. II is oxygen
that turns the blue blood to red in the
lungs 1t is oxygen that eliminates
the waste tissue an builds up the new.
And no germ of disease can live in
the presence of an excess Of oxygen.
But oxygen is gas, and unstable
Liquozone is a liqdid which IS not even
volatile. 1t carries its virtues into the
stomach. into the bowels. and into the
blood, to go wherever the blood goes
IL forms vitali:ing tonic with which
no other kr own product can cCmparc
1t is life = the h imam body But
germs are vegetables; and Liquozone
like an excess Of oxygen-is deadly
LiquoZone destroys every germ in the
body. And no man knows another way
to do It without killing the tissues, too.

Germ Diseases

The diseases in this list are known
TO be due TO germs or their toxins.
Every modern physician knows that
medicine does not apply 10 them, for
medicine cannot kill germs.
1t is true that for centuries medicine
has been employed for these troubles,
but germs We're unknown then More
than half these diseases have been

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 6.-Positive as
sertions and equally strong denials that
the great railway war between the
Pennsylvania and Gould interests has
been settled were made last night by
high official authorities.
The reported terms OF the agreement
are:
The Wabash Road, which is controlled
by Gould, to be given terminal facilities
in Pittsburg for which il has been fight
ing.
Traffic reaching Pittsburg over the
Wabash to be brought East over one of
the Pennsylvania lines.

Central roads, bought by Gould inter
ests to form part of route from Pitts
burg to Baltimore, to be bought by the
.orfolk and Western Railway, which
is dominated by the Pennsylvania.
The result of such a compact as al
legged would be that Gould lines would
reach Philadelphia, Baltimore. and New
York, but that the Pennsylvania would
retain its monopoly over the Eastern
railway situation by blocking the build
ing of an Independent line
Declaration that a treaty of peace
virtually had been concluded accom-
panied an announcement that the Penn

1t was declared by q member of the
syndicate which holds the Western
Maryland and West Virginia Central
that part of this money would be used
to finance the purchase OF the two lines
on behalf OF the Norfolk and Western.
This was confirmed by another syndi-
cate member and was specifically de-
MED by w. S. Pierce, general counsel
for Gould.
One of the rumors in circulation was
that the Pennsylvania, after taking
over the Western Maryland would
give the Gould lines a favorable ar

when she had given him a last kind
smile with her great blue-gray eyes as

bitter knowledge in his heart that lie

1t was hopeless. Il @E a&#
Benson had not threatened suicide or
self-ruin, for gentlemen do not promise
more than they can gracefully perform.
He did not even swear to remain single.
He was just thoroughly Disguised with
himself for being hasty. He had known
her scarcely three months, but as 1t was
his last term at college. he felt that he
needed to take away with him into the
world some definite inspiration besides
that afforded by his diploma. Moreover,
she had been very. very kind to him, and
he had been fascinated and flattered by
her interest. a
"Oh, you have spoiled our nice friend
ship" she had said ."'And thought you
were different from other men,"
Benson was as sensitive as any man,
but he had an iron will, so he calmly
said: Never mind. I'll not refer to it
again. and everything win 90 on just as
before" Efs"F Eg

discussed his love calmly and philo-

pencilings that in no way resembled the
clear, forcible thoughts that they stood

with a face prettily odd, and manners
childish and winsome. In the letters
he read woman with ideals immovable

formed and nobler than his own.
and thoughts lofty and beauti-
full. 1t was an entirely new Dora
to Benson, and he gradually grew
to like her Meanwhile the dainty but
terfy of his senior year fiuttered and
faded, and became memory.
When spring earle- again, she invited
him. formally and informally, to be pres.

his presence, and counted on it. But he
made a polite excuse, and did not CO.
And thesreason was simple and human.

himself to make love to the. new Dora.
