The result is a product that does
what oxygen does. Oxygen is the very
source OF all vitality, the most essen
tial clement of life. LiqnOzone IS a
vitalizing tonic with which no other
known product can compare. Its Ell
fects are exhilarating and purifying.
But germs are vegetables; and Liquoo-
zone-like an excess OF oXygen-ls
deadly to vegetable matter.
Liquozone goes wherever the blood
goes, destroying every germ in the
body. In this way 1t cures diseases
which medicine never cures. 1t will do
more for sick humanity than all the
drugs in the world combined.

Kills Inside Germs.

The reason for that price is this:
Liquozone alone can kill germs in the
body without killing the tissues too.
Nothing else in the world is SO good
for the human body; yet Liquozone is
a germicide so certain that we pub
lish on every bottle an offer of $1,000
for a germ that it cannot kill.
Liquozone destroys at once and for
ever the cause of any germ disease.
And there is no other way to do 1t.
Any drug that kills germs is poison,
and it cannot be taken internally.
Medicine is helpless in troubles of this
kind.

This Company, after testing Liquo-
zone for two years in the most difficult
germ diseases, paid 100000 for the

highest price ever paid for similar
rights on any scientific discovery.
We publish this fact to show you the
value OF LiQuozone. Men of our class
don't pay price like that save for
manity
