Bottle Is Free

We spend fourteen days and nights TO
create the virtue which you find in
Liquozone. During all of that time it
employs immense apparatus. and skill
and care. At the end of two weeks, we
get one cubic inch of Liquozone for
each 1850 cubic inches of gas used.
This process has, for more than TWEEN
ty years, been the constant subject OF
scientific and chemical research The
object is to take gases which are ger
micides, tones, nerve foods and blood
foods, and to condense their virtues
into liquid, stable form
The main result is to get into liquid,
and thus into the blood, powerful
yet harmless germicide. And the prod
uct is so helpful-so good for you under
any cOnditiOn-that even a well person
feels its instant benefit
Liquozone is not made, like medicine,
by compounding acids and drugs; nor
is there any alcohol in it. Its virtues
are derived solely from gas, made IN
large part from the best oxygen pro-
ducers Nothing but gas enters into it.

Kills Inside Germs.

The greatest value of LiQuozOne lies
In the fact that * kills germs in the
body without killing the tissues. too
And no man knows another way to dc
it. Any drug that kills germs is a
poison, and it cannot be taken internal
ly. For that reason, medicine is almost
helpless in any germ disease.
Liquozone is a germicide so certain
that we publish on every bottle an Of
fer of 81 900 for ?. disease germ that it
cannot kill. Yet IT is not only harmless
but of wonderful beneft-better than
anything else in the world for you. No
one is so well that he cannot be helped
by it.
The reason is that germs are Yegeta-
bles: and Liquozone-li1e an excess of
oxygen-is deadly TO vegetal matter.

BLOODSHED AT SENATOBIA
Sheriff Poag Killed Wednesday Morning
While Doing His Duty.

The citizens of our county
were shocked to hear of the
shooting of Sheriff j.. M. Poag,
which occurred Wednesday morn
ing at Senatobia The act was
the work Of a mcb who supposed
ly went to the jail to lynch a man
named James Whit, who had
been convicted of murder.
AT 2:30 O'Clock a. m. the sheriff,
who was also jailer, was aroused
by a knocking at the door, and
asked who it was and received the
answer that it was deputy sher
if with a prisoner. The sheriff
did not believe this statement, but
nevertheless opened the door.
Six masked men covered him with
guns. Mr.. Poag is said to have
fired above their heads to frlghten
them away, The mob returned
the fire inficting three wounds
The sheriff returned their fire
and wounded one of the number.
The mob fled, and the wounded
sheriff was given medical alten-
tion, but succnmbed to his iniur-
les at about SIX O'Clock.
A posse was organized and
search was begun for the mem
bers OF the mob, all OF whom were
captured Thursday. The mem
bar of the mob who was wounded
was Sam Howell, a deputy sheriff
who was captured at Pritchard
while trying to make his escape
over the Y. d railroad. All the
members Of the mob are said to
live at or near Strayhorn.
James Whit, whom the mob was
supposed to be after, was Confined
in Jail under sentence of death Tor
the killing of ayoung man named
Thomason. His Case had APP
pealed to the supreme court and
been reversed by That tribunal
which meant that it will be tried
again. 1t is supposed that Thorn
asons' friends. growing impatient
at the laws delay decided toiynch
him. Whit, it will besrenember~
ed, was confined in the j.il here
fol safe keeping for several days
last christmas and later carried to

NEW COUNTY OFFICIALS

All the new county officers assumed
their duties Tuesday morning at the Coun.
Ety Court House which was accomplished
without any undue excitement. Indeed,
stranger would hardly know with the
exception of the large number of politi-
clans who crowded the corridors of the
county building.
Clerk of the Peace WinfeldS Quigley
was re elected and made no change in the
personnel of his office force
Prothonotary Frank L. Speakman, who
was also reelected, will retain John Como
han as his deputy.
Robert M. Burns, the newly elected re-
ceiver of Taxes and County Treasurer,
has appointed James H. Morris and James
M. Shakespeare clerks.
Philemma Chandler, the new Comp
troler, has selected Joseph w. Wiggles-
worth as his deputy.
Harry I. Gillis, the new Sheriff, an
nounced George Cox, Horace G. Rettew,
Jr., and David p. Hutchinson as his de-
puties. Mr.. Gillis will attend to his own
inside work.
All of these are Republicans and were
elected at the November election. They
have all been sworn in at different inter-
walls since tIieir election and that work was
not necessary.
Attorney General Robert H. Richards
alsotook his office but didnot announce his
deputy and 1t is thought he will not do SO
until close to the opening of the Feb
ruary term Of court.
Coroner Purks appointed James T.
Chandler Deputy Coroner.

EDITOR TELLS TRUTH IN ONE ISSUE

A Missouri editor announces that for
just one issue he would tell the truth.
Here are few items from that issue:
John Bonin, the LATEST merchant in
town, made trip to Belville yesterday.
John Doyle, our groceryman, is doing
a poor business. His store is dirty, dusty
and noxiously odiferous. How can he
expect to do much?
Rev. Styx preached Sunday night on
"Charity." The sermon was punk.
Dave Smokey died last Saturday at his
home in this place. The doctor gave it
out as heart failure. The fact is he was
drunk and whiskey is what killed him.
Married-Miss Sylvia Rhodes and James
Canahan, last Sunday evening at the
Baptist parsonage. The bride is very
ordinary town girl who dosen't know
any more than a rabbit about cooking
and never helped her mother three days
in her life. She is not beauty by any
means aud has gait like a fat duck.
The groom is well known as an up-to-date
loafer. He has been living off the old
folks ali his life and doesn't amount to
shncks. They will have hard life while
they live together. and the Neacs has no
congratulations to offer, for we don't
believe any good can come from such a
union.
