BETHEL.

Woods Tate is on the sick list
this week.
Mrs. Laster has returned to her
home in Lake county.
Miss Bertha Ketchum is confined
to her bed with the humps.
J. J. Noonau, the photographer
of Obion, was in our midst Friday
and Friday night.
Bro. Lindale Williams filled his
regular appointment here Sunday
and Sunday night with two addi-
tons to the church.
The storm last Saturday night
took us by surprise; however, on
double quick time we had ourselves
dressed, ran into our hat and over
coat and was ready to face the tor
rent, for we were expecting at any
minute our hut to be unroofed and
dislocated in every joint, but lucki-
ly, we, nor any of our neignbors
were harmed.
Fred Blanchard, who has been at
tending school here, has been very
sick with the grippe for several
days, but is now able to be up and
has gone home with. his mother,
who lives in Lake county, to "rest
up" few days, after which he will
return and enter school again. His
sister, Clara, will remain here for
school. We are proud to have such
boys as Fred in our school. He is
now II years old and has entered
the secondary course. He will at
tend the State Institute this sum
mer and take his first years course
for a State certificate.
Who is it that is not proud of The
Commercial with its corps of CORE
spondents. With these correspond
ents we get the correct news of the
entire county, and more, we get the
news from other counties and States
as Fulton, KY, Cronanville, Lake
county, and other places. Now,
why do say correct news? Be.
cause if you have to depend upon
reports that have been current for
several miles and travelled through
several mouths you don't know
whether you can depend on their
correctness or not. But when you
read the news of a neighborhood
that was handed out by some one
living in that neighborhood then
you can feel sure of it's reliability.
Not until the last issue of The Com
mercial had we taken special notice
of the large number of correspond
ents when, to our surprise, we
found eighteen regular correspond
ents, representing ten civil districts
of our grand county OF Obion.
They all are worthy of mention and
their names are as follows: Cous-
ms Gypsy, Violet, Topsy, Maxine.

America, CULVER, Uncle Bildad, A.

Iiquozone does that. Oxygen is
Natures greatest tonic-the very source
of vitality. Its effects are exhilarating-
purifying, vitalizing. Nothing else in the
world is so good for you. But germs are
vegetables; and this excess of oxygen
the very life of an animals deadly to
vegetable matter.
We spend ID days in making each
bottle of Liquozone; but the result is
liquid oxygen-a product which will cure
diseases which no medical skill can cure
without it. 1t is now employed in every
great hospital, and Endorsed by every
medical authority, the world over.

This company, after testing Liquozone
for two years in the most difficult germ
diseases, paid 800, 900 for the United
States rights. That is by far the highest
price ever paid for similar rights on any
scientific discovery.
We publish this fact to show you the
value of Liquozone. The most worthless
product may have great claims made
about it; but men don't pay price like
that save for discovery Of remarkable
worth to humanity.

Liquozoue alone kills germs in the body
without killing the tissues, too. 1t is so
certain that we publish on every bottle
an offer of 81 900 for diseasegerm that it
cannot kill. Liquozone destroys at once
and forever the cause of any germ disease.
And there is no other way to do it.
Any drug that kills germs is poison to
you, and it cannot be taken internally.
