John Gerber Secures Wrong Bottle and
Swallows Tincture of Iodine

Under the impression that he was
taking the medicine prescribed by his
doctor for rheumatism, John Gerber, a
guest at the Arlington hotel, Seven
corners, swallowed small quantity of
tincture of iodine last night. Gerber
realized his mistake Immediately after
swallowing the iodine and informed
the hotel clerk of his act. The police
ambulance was called and Gerber, who
by this time was unconscious, was
hurried to the city hospital. after being
attended by Police Surgeon Moore. At
the hospital it was stated that al
though Gerber was in critical condi-
tion, he had fair chance OF recovery.
Gerber's home is in Minneapolis.

How L:quozone Cures.

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
poison. and it cannot be taken inter-
nally. For that reason medicine is al
most helpless in any germ disease.
Liquozone is a germicide so certain
that we publish on every bottle an offer
OF $1,000 for q disease germ that 1t
cannot kill. Yet Ii is not only harm
less, but of wonderful benefit-better

The virtues of LiSuoZone are derived
solely from gas, made in large part
from the best oxygen producers. No

addition, many guns arrived in Mulx-

the Russian artillery when the big bat

about twenty miles from this place,
was found Thanksgiving day of last
year dead in bed, his body partly
burned. A bullet hole in the head

the window near the table upon which
was the remnant of a partly eaten

body had been placed upon the bed,
the bedclothing saturated with kero-
sene and a match applied. The fire
failed to do its work, Al only part of
the clothing was burned, while the
body was more or less blackened.

evidently the motive as some of the
