the bones and blow up the skin so as to

reindeer tallow for their little folk.
None OF the food that the Eskimos
eat seems very inviting to us, but they
are extremely fond of it and are very
apt to overeat. 1t is said by explorers
who have gone into Greenland that it
is no uncommon sight to see an Eskimo

MACHEN DEFENSE BEGINS
Mrs. LorenE Breaks Down and Cries in
COurt-Miss Liebhardt's Testimony
for the Defense.

Washington, Jan. 29-The defense
in the postal trial has opened. Mad
d0y, on behalf Of the GrOffs, said he
would prove that George E. LOrenZ
in 1895 had purchased for $500 one
half interest in the Croft fastener. He
was followed by Kumler, for the LO-
renZes, who asserted that as far back
as 1888 Machen, George E. LorenZ and
his brother engaged in the oil bust
ness in Ohio, and that as a result of
their various transact George e.
Lorenz owed Machen $4,000, and that
whatever money Lorenz paid to Ma
chen was in settlement of an honest
debt. Conrad Syme, on behalf of Ma
chen, agreed with what Maddox and
Kumler had said, and added that lie
would prove there was no conspiracy.
When Kumler, in the course of his
opening remarks said that Mrs. Lorenz
had been scandalized by the govern
ment, which had treated her with
cruelty, Mrs. Lorenz broke down and
wept bitterly. The first witness for
the defense was Miss Ina S. Lieb-
hardt, chief clerk of the rural free
delivery system. She said she had
put Machens initials OH 300 papers
day, as matter of routine, many of
the papers relating to the Croft fast

become a fixed supply, and that many
postal officials were aware that she did
so. She was still on the stand at ad

the Russian government to make fur
Their preparations for war; but that
Count LamsdOrff is honestly trying to
bring the matter in dispute to an annie

means that a final struggle is going
on between the peace and war parties

add that l believe the peace party will
triumph.
Point Upon'Which Japan Insists.
THE cruX of the whole matter is
RuSsia's assurances regarding Chinese
sovereignty over Manchuria. On other
points Japan may agree to certain
notifications, but unless Russia gives
an assurance, binding and in writing,
regarding MancNuria Japan will break
off the negotiations and adopt meas
ures to safeguard her interests. Japan

 Our reason is this; Thousands of peo- ple whom Liquozone could save are dying today without it. Hundreds of thousands are helpless and sick, simply for the lack of Liouozone. We cannot. under condi- lions like those, wait to convince the sick ones by argument.
 Any slow method of introducing Liquo- zone would seem almost crime, know ing 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 5Oc bot tie and give it free to every sick one we learn of, suffering from germ disease Thus we get J4iquozone into immediate use, and let the product itself prove its power. And we publish this offer in 1.SOO and magazines. reaching practically every home in America.

We Paid SIOo.OoO

For the American rights to Liquozone before We made the first bottle. That Is the highest price ever paid for similar rights on any scientific discovery. Before paying this price we tested Liquozone for two years. through physicians and hospitals, in this country and others. We proved. in thousands of the most difficult eases obtainable, what Liquozone would do.
 We cured with it hundreds of patients who had been given up to die. We cured almost every disease which was known as incurable. We continued these tests un- til the physicians who made them stated that Liquozone was of more value to sick humanity than all the drugs in the world combined. Then We staked on the prod uct our fortunes and our reputations.
 We tell you these facts to indicate the value of LiquoZone. It 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 1t.
 We use Liquozone daily in our families. We serve 1t to every employe in our lab oratory-400 of them. We use 1t in all the water we drink to prevent germ con- tagion. We use 1t to keep well, as you VIII do when you know 1t.

KillC InSide GermS.

But the most important fact is that oxygen is also a germicide' No germs can exist in the presence of an excess Of oxygen. The reason is that germs are vegetables; and an excess of oxygen-the very life of an animal-is deadly to Vege" table matter.
 And so with Liquozone. It Is so certain that We publish on every bottle an ofer of $1, 900 for disease germ that it cannot kill. Yet 1t Is not only harmless, but or the utmost benefit, to the cells of the hu- man body.
 This is the fact which gives to Liquo- zone its remarkable value. It solves thS 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 poison, and 1t cannot be taken internally. For that reason, medicine is practically helpless in any germs disease.
 Llquozone. taken internally, goes wher' ever the blood goes; and as no germ can escape 1t. and none can resist it, the re- suits are inevitable. A germ disease must end when the germs are destroyed; hothing Is more certain than that And every physician knows that a germ trou- Die can never be cured until then. The use or Liquizone. in place of medicine. Is fast becoming universal among modern physicians
