We Paid 100000

For the American rights to Liquo-
zone, and the rights in other countries
have sold for proportionate sums. We
mention this fact to indicate the
value of Liquozone-the value to you.
Men have never before paid such a
price for any discovery used in the
cure of sickness.
We need not tell you that we proved
Liquozone well before buying it. For
years it was tested through physi-
clans and hospitals, in this country
and others. It was employed in every
stage of every germ disease; in all
the most difficult cases obtainable.
With thousands of sick ones, consid-
cred incurable, we proved that 1t did
what medicine could not do. Then,
and then only, did we pay the price.
Since then we have spent nearly
100000 to make Liquozone known.
We have bought the first bottle and
given 1t free to every sick one we
learned of. These people told others,
and the others told others. The re-
suit is that Liquozone is now more
widely employed than any medicine
ever was. And no one can doubt that
1t is doing more for sick humanity
than all the drugs in use combined.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-03-11

There are at least three million homes
in America which know from expert
ence the value of Liquozone. Some
of those homes use it simply to keep
well, as we do. But tens of thousands
have lives that were saved by 1t.
Yet some remain sick with a germ
disease while all OF those millions
know that Liquozone cures. Some
still cling to drugs for what drugs
never can do. They are wronging
themselves. Their own friends
their own neighbors-can tell them
the way to get well.
We ask those sick ones to write us.
We will buy for each one the first bot
tie of Liquozone, and pay the drug
gist ourselves for it. Each is welcome
to try 1t at our expense, then let the
results decide about using it after
wards
Don't try to kill inside germs with
drugs, for you cannot. Don't cling
blindly to old methods of treatment,
used before germs were discovered.
Let us prove what this new way
means to you.

Not Medicine

Llquozone is not made, like medi-
cine, by compounding acids and
drugs; nor is there any alcohol in it,
It's virtues are derived solely from
gas, made in large part from the best
oxygen producers. The process Of
making takes IA days, and requires
immense apparatus. At the end of
two weeks we get one cubic inch of
Liquozone for each 1850 cubic inches
of gas used. The attainment of this
product has, for more than twenty
years, been the constant subject Of
scientific and chemical research.
The main result is to get into a
liquid, and thus into the blood, a
powerful, yet harmless germicide.
And the product is so helpful-so
good for you under any condition
that even a well person feels its in
slant benefit.
This is the product, which in the
past two years has sprung into world
wide use in the treatment Of germ
diseases. 1t is now used by the sick

with the least possible grade over
mountains of considerable altitude.
These roads are we'll adapted for
their present use, but would not be
suitable for the automobile. The
roadbeds are good and firm, but in
no other sense would they be suitable
for a motor.
work of most skilled engineers, the
grades are often very great. In the
windings of the roads sharp curves
are often met. Often on the noun
tain side the road is cut into the solid
rock, and only at occasional intervals
broad enough to allow carriages to
pass.
At these places a false step or a
wrong move by an unruly motor
would plunge it down great depths,
so that the introduction of the auto
mobile would not only be perilous for
the autoist, but would render travel
by carriages more hazardous.
1t would be difficult to find more
than a quarter of mile of absolute
ly straight road in Western Norway.
This, with the fact that usually one
side of the road is high bank, shows
that motoring would be attended with
no small amount of danger. The
prospects are not inviting to the eX-
porter of automobiles to attempt to
introduce them in this vicinlty.-E. S.

First Bottle Free.

II you need Liquozone, and have
never used it, please send us the cou-
pom below. We will then send you
an order on a local druggist for a
full-sized bottle-a SOC bottle-and
will pay the druggist ourselves for 1t.
This applies only to the first bottle,
of course-to those who have never
used 1t.
The acceptance of this offer places
you under no obligations. We simply
wish to convince you; to let the pro-
duct itself show you what 1t can do.
Then you can Judge by results as to
whether you wish to continue.
This offer itself should convince
you that Liquozone does as we claim.
We would certainly not buy a bottle
and give 1t to you, If there was any
doubt OF results; you want to be well
and to keep well. Then be fair enough
to yourself to accept our offer today
Let us show you, at our expense what
this wonderful product means to you

NO AUTOS FOR NORWAY.
Scandlnavians Look With Dlsfavor on
Machines.

The following interesting letter is
from American Consul E. S. Gun
ningham at Bergen, Norway, on the
subject of automobiles in Norway:
The automobile has not been intro
duced into this part of Scandinavia.
Its appearance would be looked upon
with disfavor, and with but little hope
that its frequent use might overcome
the displeasure which its advent
would cause.
There are no very wealthy people
here, though there are many well-to-
do and In the Norwegian sense
wealthy residents who indulge In
many luxuries and could easily graf
ify their desire for the possession OF
the popular carriage of the day; but
the universal sentiment is one Of dis
favor, a feeling that the automobile
SO well adapted to other countries is
not suitable to nor safe for use In
Norway.
The advent of the motorist would
no doubt be the signal for a most en-
phatic protest from the country peo-
pie, because Of added danger to travel
by carriage along the narrow roads
no less than the fear that one of theiI
means Of revenue during the summer
season would be greatly diminished
by the gradual substitution Of the
automobile for the carriage now ir
use.

miles of excellent roads and the won.

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases;
all due to germs or to the poisons
which germs create. These are the
diseases to which medicine does not
apply, for drugs cannot kill inside
germs.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to act as tonic, aiding ma
ture to overcome the germs. But
those results are indirect and uncer-
tain, depending on the patients con-
dition. A cure Is always doubtful
when drugs are used, and some OF
these diseases medicine never cures.
Liquozone alone can destroy the
cause of these troubles. 1t goes wher-
ever the blood goes, so that no germ
can escape 1t. The results are almost
inevitable. Diseases which have re-
sisted medicine for years yield at once
to Liquozone. "Incurable" diseases
are cured by 1t. In any stage of any
disease in this list the results are SO
certain that we will gladly send to
any patient who asks 1t an absolute
guaranty.

Kills Inside Germs

The greatest value of Liquozone lies
in the fact that 1t kills germs in the
body without killing the tissues, too.
And no man knows another way to do
it. Any drug that kills germs is a poi
son, and II cannot be taken inter-
nally. For that reason, medicine is
almost helpless in any germ disease.
Liquozone is a germicide 30 GER
tain that we publish on every bottle

harmless but of wonderful benefit

amount of soil may be applied with
the result of giving more immediate

even a less amount may be used, as

The reason is that germs are vege-

it is certain destruction; and these

The Bran Mash.

Everybody is supposed to know how
to make a bran mash, but it is only In
racing stables and large studs, as
rule. that one sees it done properly.
To make bran mash, first wash out
bucket with boiling water, then pour
in the quantity required, say three
pints. and stir in three pounds of bran,
cover I'D and leave it for a couple OF
hours or more if not required for I'M
mediate use. A mash takes hours to
get cold, and is often offered to a-slck
horse too hot, and refused, when it
would have been taken if properly pre-
pared. and given warm instead OF
scaling. The addition OF table,
spoonful of salt in the ordinary mash
of a Saturday night can be recon-
mended to keep down parasites and
promote digestion. but should not be
part of the invalid diet, unless special
ly ordered. A mixture of linseed and
bran is often prescribed both as a
food and a poultice. One part Of lin
seed to two of bran is desirable pro-
portion for both purposes. To get
all the feeding value out of Hnseed sew
eral hours should be allowed for COOK
ing, not merely infusing, as with
bran mash but gently "simmering' on
the side of the stove. The vessel
should be filled, and towards the end
the lid may be left off, and evaporation
permitted while cooling.

gathering in the history of the state
grange is anticipated. Election of Off
GERS will take place this year. The
number of voting delegates will be 500.
The grange has just completed a
prosperous year in the way of strength
ching the oranges which have already
been instituted. 1t is now the largest
Order Of the state and one Of the most
powerful. During the past year many
new oranges have been instituted but
the hard work of State Master Gardner
and his corps of officers has been in
strengthening the oranges already
formed. In this work they have been
most successful. From total mem
berShip Of little rising $1,000 last
year when the state grange met in

The prominent thought Of the meeting
was that the state should in some way
provide means to establish schools OF
departments in schools in the several
counties of the state where agriculture
might be taught and its principles
studied i'll practical way, The sys-
tenn in Wisconsin was referred to as
bringing this instruction closer to the
people than it is when given at the ag
ricultural colleges. The matter will
be referred by formal resolutions to
the state grange at its next meeting.
