We Paid 100000

For the American rights to Liquo-
zone. We did this after testing the
product for two years, through physi-
slams and hospitals. after proving. in
thousands of different cases, that
Liquozone destroys the cause Of any
germ disease.
I Liquozone has, for more than 20
yerrs, been the constant subject Of
scientific and chemical research. II Is
not made by eempounding drugs, nor
With alcohol. Its virtues are derived
solely from gGs-largely oxygen gas

|ratus and IA days time. The result is
Ia liquid that does what oxygen does.

It's effects are exhilarating, vitalizing,
purifying. Yet IL is q germicide so
certain that we publish on every bot
tie an offer of $1,000 for a disease
germ that it cannot kill The reason
is that germs are vegetables; and
Liquozone-like an excess Of oxygen
is deadly to vegetal matter.
There lies the great value OF Liquo-
zone. Il is the only way known to kill
germs In, the body without killing the
tissue, too. Any drug that kills germs
is a poison. and it cannot be tassen in
ternally. Every physician knows that
medicine is almost helpless in any
germ disease.

Millions Of people, Of nine different
nations, are constant users of LiQuo-
zone. Some are using it to get we'll;
some to keep well. Some to cure
germ diseases; some as a tonic. No
medicine was ever so widely employed.
These users are everywhere; your
neighDors and friends are among them.
And half the people you meet-wher-
ever you are-know someone whom
Iiquozone has cured.
If you need help, please ask some of
these users what Liquozone does.
Don't blindly take medicine for what
medicine cannot do. Drugs never kill
germs. For your own sake, ask about
Lquozone; then let us buy you a full
size bottle to try.

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help Nature overcome
the germs, and such results are indi-
rect and uncertain. Liquozonc attacks
the germs, wherever they are. And
when the germs which cause disease
are destroyed, the disease must end,
and forever. That is inevitable.
