We Paid 100000

For the American rights to Liquo-
zone-the highest price ever paid for
similar rights on any scientific dis
eovery We did this after testing the
product for two years. through physi-
clans and hospitals, in this country
and others.
That price was paid because Liquo-
zone does in germ troubles what all
the drugs. all the skill in the world,
cannot accomplish without it. 1t car
ries into the blood a powerful yet
harmless germicide, to destroy at once
and forever the cause OF any germ dis
ease. And no man knows another way
to do it. Liquozone is so certain that
we publish on every bottle an offer Of
$1,000 for a disease germ that it can
not kill.

Acts Like Oxygen.

Liquozone is the result OF a process
which, for more than 20 years, has
been the constant subject OF scientific
and chemical research. Its virtues are
derived solely from gas, made in large
part from the best oxygen producers.
By a process requiring immense APP
paratus and IL days time. these gases
are made part OF the liquid product.
The result 10 a product that does
what. oxygen does. Oxygen gas. as
you know, is the very source OF vital
ity. Liquozone is a vitalizer with
which no other known product can
compare. But germs are vegetables
and Liquozone-like an excess OF
oxygen-is deadly to vegetal matter.
Yet this wonderful product which no
germ can resist, is, to the human
body, the most essential element OF
life.

JUDGE EVANS DECISION.

Judge Walter Evans, in the fedora
court of this district, rendered one o.
the plainest and fairest decisions OF
record in an application for injunction
in the case of Louisville packers
against striking butchers. Judge Evans
holds that if strikers are disposed &c
obey the law and offer no violence in
seeking to accomplish their purpose.
they need fear no injunction against
them in the courts, for it will not hurt
them, or any body else.
Judge Evans lays down the follow
ing fundamental principles of mems
rights:
"There are several general PROPOSE
tions which are regarded as settled
law, and which it may not be amiss
to state: First: Every person has the
right to work for whomever employs
him. Second: Every person has the
right to employ any one who wishes to
work. Third: Those who wish to
strike may lawfully do so if no con-
tract prevents, and even if it violates
q contract, they may do so subject to
damages therefor. Fourth: Employers
who wish TO take the step usually
called lockout" may take it when
they please, subject TO actions for
damages for any breach of contract
involved in the step. Fifth: Labor
unions are perfectly legitimate and
possibly necessary, and, sixth, while |
peaceably and kindly arguments and |
persuasions are perfectly admissible
from members of labor unions in their
efforts to induce persons not to take
the places OF those "locked out" or
OF those engaged in strike, yet all
manner Of violence or force in connec-
ton with such efforts is wrongful and
unlawful.
OF the temporary injunction he
granted, Judge Evans says:
But as the case now presents itself,
no harm can come to anybody from
granting temporary injunction. 1t
will in no sense harm the persons en-
Joined if, as they say they are not
doing and in no wise intend to com
NIT. any acts of intimidation or VIC.
lepce. An injunction will assist the
union If, as their leaders say, that
body is doing what it can to prevent
acts of wrongdoing by its members.
But, if the compliments side of the
case as presented be the true one. then
it has the right to such protection as
the law and the courts may afford.

SOC. Bottle Free.


Medicine must fail in a germ trouble,
because medicine never kills inside
germs. Any germ-killing drug is a
poison to you, and it cannot be taken
internally.
Liquozone is the only way known to
kill germs in the body without kill
ing the tissues, too. Ii does in a germ
trouble what no drugs, no skill in the
world, can accomplish without it. To

LANG BROTHERS
SUCCESSFUL
INDUCES DIR. HOWARD COMPA
NY TO MAKE SPECIAL PRICE.

After a great deal of effort and cor
respondence Lang Bros, the popular
druggists, have succeeded in getting
the DR.. Howard Co. to make spe-
cisl balf-price introductory offer on
the regular so cent size of their cele-
brated specific for the cure of consti-
patton and dyspepsia.
This medicine is a recent discovery
for the cure of all diseases of the stom-
aoh and bowels. 1t not only gives
quick relief, but it makes permanent
cures.
DR.. Towards specific has been so
remarkably successful in curing con-
stipation, dyspepsia ana all liver
troubles. that Lang Bros. are willing
TO return the price paid In every case
where it does not give relief.
The old fashioned idea of dosing
with mineral waters, cathartic pills
or harsh purgatives will soon be q
thing of the past. The best physi-
clans are prescribing DIR. Towards

sired results and on account of the

WIRE INSPECTOR NEEDED.

The report OF the local INSURANCE
commissioners, who has made an in.
speotion Of the business section of Pa.
ducah, calls attention to something
long neglected in Paducah-the cleo.
trio wiring CT houses. In many places,
says the inspector, he found electric
light wires dangling about in all sorts
of ways Some are attached to gas
jets, soma are suspended from nails,
and the insulation Of hundreds is al
lowed through ignorance or neg ligence
to be constantly endangered, if it is
not actually impaired.
There should be regular wire in
spector in Paducah. The safety of life
and property of the citizens demands
it. Other cities smaller than Paducah
have such au official, and they all
ought to, but unfortunately people do
not appear to realize the Importance
of such protection, and there has never
been any action taken in Paducah
terding to secure it. The wiring of
all houses is presumed to be correct
originally, but with the shifting about
of things in a building the wiring is
apt to become affected in such way
as to endauger the property, both in
store houses and residences.
One of the reasons of high insurance
rates here is that so little attention is
p aid to electric wires in Paducah.
The big fire last fall may have result.
ed from wire. If it did it cost the
insurance companies about 500, 900,
and some Of our citizens large sums,
no loss being fully covered by insur-
ance. When such important things
are neglected, is there any wonder
that insurance companies raise rates {?
High insurance rates are of import
snce to the citizens of place not only
because Of the additional cost of such
protection, but also because they call
attention to the defects which endan-
ger property aud make the risks of the
companies greater. Higher insurance
rates are not a cause, but an effect.
They are the result of the conditions
found in city, which make risks
good or bad. When a city is well
equipped with fire departments, has a
good water supply, modern fire fight
ing machines, enough men to operate
them. and due attention is paid to
keeping buildings clean, and the wir-
ing in good order. there are low rates
because the risk is reduced. Otherw Use
there are high rates because tho dan
ger of an insurance company IS having
to pay heavy losses is increased. In
some places, as in Mayfeld a few
years ago, the insurance companies
withdraw, and it is impossible for the
people to get fire insurance at any
price.
Something should be done in Padu.
cab to protect the people. The average
person cannot tell whether OF not wir-
ing is in good condition, or properly
done and that there is grave danger
which needs attention, is shown by
the statement of the insurance COM

dences at all, and has no authority to
enforce changes when he finds where

though the city refused to compromise

The city today paid 81, 800 as COM
