4 short time ago. some Chicago men paid Sl00.0000 for. the American rights to a new scientific product called Liauo- 85ne. The product was made from gas largely oxygen gas-by a secret process requiring l4 days. By the employment of immense apparatus, the virtues of l. eS0 cubic feet of the gas are absorbed Into one cubic foot of Liquozone.
 The great value of the product lay in the fact that 1t would do what oxygen does. Not only as a tonic but also as a esrmicide. It was amply proved that Liquozone would kill germs in the body without harming the living tissues
 This meant. of course, that Liquozone would cure germ diseases It opened the way, to cure diseases which were gener- ally called incurable. It was this fact that gave the product it's value.
 Tile Company which purchase Lquo- sone immediately appropriated $500, 600 to give q million bottles away to a million sick ones. They also offered to furnish # free to every hospital and to every physician. The result has. been that in six short months the product has come into almost universal use. Four labora- tories with p floors and 800 employees, are occupied in producing 1t. Four glass factories are employed to make the bot ties for it. Within one-half year, Liqu ,- zone has come into larger use than any other remedy ever attained.
 The offer of the first bottle free is stlll published It appears elsewhere in this paper It opens the way for any of ouc readers to make a test of this new and remarkable product without asst, and we advise them to do it. Adv.
