We Paid 100000

For the American rights to Llquozone
before we made the first bottle hat
is the highest price ever paid tor SINH
lar rights on any scientific discovery
Before paying this price we tested Ii
quozone for two years, through phySi-
clans and hospitals, in this country
and others. We proved, in thousands
of the most difficult cases obtaina0le'
what Liquozone would do.
We cured with it hundreds OF pa
tients who had been given up to die
We cured almost every disease which
was known as incurable. We con-
tinued these tests until the physicians
who made them stated that LiquOzone
was of more value TO sick humanity
than all the drugs in the world COM
bined. Then we staked on the product
our fortunes and Our regulations.
We tell you these facts TO indicate
the value of Liquozone. 1t is easy to
make claims, and easy to question
them. But when men of our class pay
such a price for product, no one can
doubt that we have great reason for
our faith in il.
We use Liquozone daily in our fami-

BANKS RECORD
CASH INCREASE
Statement of New York Insti-
tutiOns Shows a Big Gain
That Is Very Encouraging

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-The Financier
says: The striking feature of the Of
fetal statement of the New York banks
last week was the net increase of ST.
405, 400 in cash to the maximum of the
year. This amount of increase closely
corresponds with the gain of $7,617, 500
which was estimated upon the basis of
the traceable movements of money
during the week, including Thursday,
February IL.
This correspondence between the
bank statement and the estimated gain
is the moro remarkable because the
statements of the two previous weeks
showed wide discrepancies, that of Feb
ru4ry indicating a loss of 81, SOC, 900.
while the estimate called for a gain of
nearly that sum. and the return of Feb
ruary 13 showing decrease of 81, $685.
900, whereas the estimates indicated a
gain of more than $2.000,00
Moreover the statements of the pre-
vious two weeks included one day
which was omitted in computing the
estimates. The deposits last week in
creased 1865, 100, and consequently the
required reserve was augmented by
$417,025. Deducting this sum from the
net gain of 1854, 400 cash as above.
leaves S7,127.375 as the increase in sur
plus reserve to 81, sos, 900. This, 1t may
be noted, is the maximum of the year
and within s474,f75 of the highest sur
plus reserve in 1908, which was recorded
on January 81
Computed upon the basis of deposits.
less those of s37, ,997. 800 public funds, the
surplus last week was S37, ,005, ,975. The
loans were reduced $5,131, 100, rejecting
the light demand from Stock Exchange
borrowers and commission houses re-
sulting from the inactive speculation.
The statement was probably made
upon rising averages for cash, this hav-
ing been an apparently unrecorded
movement of money representing de-
posits of public funds which have been
sent hither from interior points in an
ticipation of the treasury call for their
surrender. The movement of money
from the South to this center was also
large toward the end of the week.
Comparisons of loans show that five
of the larger banks decreased their item

We viii Buy

a soc bottle of Liquozone and give II
to you to try Simply send US the
coupon below. Tell us that you have
never used it. Tell us for what you
want it. By return mail we will send
you an order on your local druggist
for full size bottle. and will pay your
druggist ourselves for it.
Our reason is this: Thousands OF
people whom Liquozone could save
are dying to-day without it. Hundreds
of thousands are helpless and sick,
simply for the lack of Liquozone. We
cannot, under conditions like those,
wait to convince the sick ones by ar
gument
Any slow method of introducing
Liquozone would seem almost crime,
knowing what we do of this product.
And, knowing as we do, that nothing
else in the world can accomplish what
Liquozone does. So we publish no
testimonials, no evidence of cures.
But we buy a soc bottle and give it
free to every sick one we learn OF sut-
fering from a germ disease. Thus we
get LiQuozone into immediate use,
and let the product itself prove its
power. And we publish this offer in
1900 newspapers and magazines,
reaching practically every home in

A. I'll. BEEBE Is ACCUSED
OF WITHHOLDING FUNDS
Columbia Bowling Association Files
Suit Against Its Former Presi-
dent and Manager.

The fight between the directors of
the Columbia Bowling Association for
control of the affairs of the concern
resulted yesterday in the filing of a
suit for an accounting against a. H.
Beebe, former president and manager
of the concern. The suit is brought
in the name of the Columbia Bowling
Association and is based on the charge
that Beebe ran the concern to suit
himself and did not make proper re-
turns to the association.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
Beebe, by a resolution of the board of
directors, was removed from the posi-
tion of management on the 4th inst.
and it is charged that for the year he
acted as manager he collected large
sums and failed to make returns for
all the money to the corporation No
amount is stated, but it is alleged that
as the receipts of the association
amounted to $50 day, the amount
retained by Beebe must be very large.

Kills Inside Germs.

But the most important fact is that
oxygen is also germicide. No germs
can exist in the presence of an excess
OF oxygen. The reason is that germs
are vegetables; and an excess of oxy-
gyn-the very life of an animals
deadly to vegetal matter.
And so with Liquozone. 1t is so
certain that we publish on every bot
tie an offer of $1,000 for a disease
germ that it cannot kill Yet it is not
only harmless, but of the utmost ben
eft to the cells of the human body.
This is the fact which gives to
Liquozone its remarkable value. 1t
solves the great problem of killing
germs in the body without killing the
tissues, too And there is no other
way to do it. Any drug that kills
germs is a poison. and it cannot be
taken internally. For that reason
medicine is practically helpless in any
germ disease
Liquozone, taken internally, goes
wherever the blood goes; and as no
germ can escape it, and none resist it,
the results are inevitable. A germ
disease must end when the germs are
destroyed; nothing is more certain
than that And every physician knows
that a germ trouble can never be cured
until then. The use of Liquozone, in
place OF medicine, is fast becoming
universal among modern physicians.

The force of the argument that the
storm blockades represent only tenn

will ultimately be moved, has been
somewhat weakened by the develop
ment of rate wars on grain traffic.
The falling off in the demand for
money in the country at large Is not
an altogether reassuring development

EUROPE WILL FORM A
COMMERCIAL ALLIANCE
Plans Are on Foot to Resist the En-
croachmcnts of the United
States.


BERLIN. Feb. 6.-It is now consid-
cred certain that new Central
European Customs Union will be
formed under the presidency of the
Duke of Schleswig- -Holstein for the
protection of European countries
against the United States.
Several meetings have been held dur
ing the last week and prominent repre-
sentatives of trade, industry and agri-
culture from all States in Germany,
Belgium, Holland and the Scandina-
Wan countries have been present.
The idea of forming a union of this
kind emanates from Professor Wolff,
who has presided at all the meetings,
and who explained that the aim of tNe
society is to establish a Central Euro
pean Economic Alliance for the pro-
lection of European producers.
Although the United States has not
been. mentioned at any meeting, 1T is
evident that the regulations adopted
are first of all directed against Ameri-
can competition. The only obstacle to
the formation of an effective union is
the attitude of France, which at pres
ent seems disinclined to cooperate
with Germany in this field.

Germ Diseases.

The diseases in this list are known
to be due 20 germs or their toxins.
Every modern physician knows that
medicine does not apply to them, for
medicine canno. kill inside germs.
All that medicine can do for these
diseases is to act as tonic. aiding Ma
ture to overcome the germs. Such re-
suits are indirect and uncertain. They
depend on the patients condition. A
cure by drugs is always doubtful and
often impossible.
Liquozone goes direct to the cause
of the trouble and DESTROYS it. 1t Of

Not Medicine.

Liquozone is the result of process
which, for more than 20 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 secret pro-
cess-by the employment of immense
apparatus and IA days' time-are
made part of the liquid product.
Liquozone is not made. like medi-
cine, by compounding acids or drugs,
nor is there any alcohol in it. It's vir-
tues are derived solely from the gas,
in the making of which we employ the
best oxygen producers.s The result IS
a wonderful product, which is better
than anything else in the world for
you.

Acts Like Oxygen.

The virtue of Liquozone lies in the
fact that it does what oxygen does.
Oxygen is the vital part OF air. 1t is
Natures greatest tonic. the very
source OF vitality, the most essential
element of life. 1t is oxygen that
turns the blue blood to red in the

waste tissue and builds up the new.
Every function of life so depends on it
that we could not live three minutes
without it.
But oxygen is a gas, and unstable.
We cannot get an excess into the
blood to remain there. Liquozone is a
liquid, with all its virtues in permanent

result is that Liquozone acts as tonic
