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 lndi-
rect and uncertain. Liquozona attacks
the germs, wherever they are. And
when the germs which cause disease
are destroyed, the disease must end,
and forever. That is inevitable.

CAV CASE SETTLED
BOYS FINED $153.2O

Gravett, Sept. 29.-The celebrated
cat case was closed or a verdict re-
turned, Saturday in Benton county cir
cult court, and rather an abrupt turn
OF affairs was in evidence, as many
o. the parties who seemed interested
looked for the boys to be acquitted.
A verdict of guilty was returned and
the boys, Bert Oglesby and Fred Rags
dale, were fined $40 and costs, the
whole amount for both being $15S.2O,
which was quite sum to dig up for
lust one stray cat. Nevertheless they
had to dig, and the cat is clear OF
charges. The accusation is Of throw
irg a cat saturated with "high-life"
into church where the Salvation
Army was holding forth, and the way
the matter has been dragged into
political and church affairs is gener-
ally considered a disgrace to the COM
munity.

Bureau Athletic club by To 3 on the
grounds at Second and r Streets north

the National boys played the kind Of
ball for-which they have received such
good name.

team. and allowed but four hits which
he kept well scattered except i'm the
first inning, when the losers made their
hrst two runs on two hits. an error. and
n pass. For the rest Of the game there
was not a semblance Of bad fielding,
and every player put some life into the
game.
