How Liquozone Cures

The greatest value of Liquozone lies
in the fact that it 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 internal
~. For that reason medicine is almost
helpless In any germ disease.
Liquozone is germicide so certain
that we publish on every bottle an offer
of $1,000 for a disease germ: that it can
not kill Yet it is not only harmless but

CORN OUTLOOK IN KANSAS.
Double the Yearly Average Yield Pre-
dicted by Smiley.

Kansas promises to produce this
year almost double its yearly average
yield of corn. The average annual
yield for the last 90 years has been
1885, 900 bushels. f. F. Smiley
secretary of the Kansas Grain Dealers
association, whose business 1t is to
look up crop conditions, estimates the
yield for the year at 275. 900, 900. This
is 100000 greater than the largest
crop Kansas ever produced. In 1889
it raised 273,000.00O bushels. but got
only about 15 cents a bushel for 1t.
Much of the early corn has been
matured already. But it will take
couple of more rains within the next
30 days to ripen the late crop, which
is the big yield of the state. The
weather is ideal for corn. The nights
are warm. No part of the state is
suffering for lack of moisture. Only
the most unfavorable climatic condi-
tions can cut the crop below the 200,-
100000 mark. The /heat crop is es-
timated at about 7O,000,000 bushels
by the Grain Dealers association and
the railroads. The wheat acreage is
5,S2S,s4S, about the same as last year.

Smithsonian Institute clerk charged
with the embezzlement of $4,000 ap-

His case will be brought before the

repaid by Karr's bondsmen.

consisted of about $4,000, was found
