acts as a remarkable tonic.
We Paid 100000.
For the rights to Liquozone, after
thousands of tests had been made with
1t, after Its power had been demon
strated for more than two years in the
most difficult germ diseases. Condi-
lions which had resisted medicine for
years yielded at once to it, and dis
eases considered incurable were cured.
That was five years ago. Since then
millions of people in every part of the
world have shared in the benefits of
this invention. Nearly every hamlet,
every neighborhood, has living exam
pies of it's power. Now we ask you to
let it do for you what it did for them.
Germ Diseases.
Most of our sickness has, in late
years, been traced to germ attacks.
Some eerms-as in skin troubles-dl-
rectly attack the tissues. Some ere
ate toxins, causing such troubles as
Rheumatism, Blood Poison, Kidney
Disease and nerve weakness. Some de-
stroy vital organs, as in Consumption.
Some-lille the germs Of Catarrh-
create Inflammation: some cause indi-
gestion. In one of these ways, nearly
every serious ailment is a germ result.
Such conditions call for germicide,
not for common drugs. LiquoZone
does what other means cannot accom-
plish. And it is wrong to cling to old
ways when millions of people know
way that is better

Let Us Pay
Bottle Of New LquOzOne, and Give to You Try

There is nothing to buy--not a penny
to pay We will buy the first bottle if
you will try it and learn what Liquo-
zone means to you.
Countless people have done that dur
ing the past five years. Some were
discouraged and hopeless. believing

have shared in the benefits of this
invention.
What Liquozone Is.
Liquozone is tonic germicide, the
virtues of which are derived solely
from oxide gases No alcohol, no mar
cote, nothing but gas enters into it,
The process of making requires large
apparatus, and consumes IA days
time. The object is to so combine the
gases with liquid as to carry their
virtues into the system.
The result is a germicide so certain
that We publish with every bottle an
offer of $1,000 for a disease germ that
Liquozone cannot kill. 1t destroys
them because germs are of vegetable
origin. But to the body Liquozone is
exhilarating. vitalizing. purifying.
That is it's main distinction. Com
mon germicides are poisons when
taken internally. They are impossible,
for they destroy the tissues as well as
the germs. That is why medicine
proves SO helpless in dealing with germ

LAWRENCE PLEASED
WITH LEGISLATION
Explains Workings of the New
Local Option Law
DISPENSARY NOT INVOLVED
Anti-saloon League Bill Provides Only
for Election to Decide On Sale
of Liquors or Prohib-
ton of Liquors.
DlSPENSARY NOT INVOLVED

Brooks Lawrence, state superintendent
of the AnG-Saloon league OF Alabama
who has been in Montgomery since the
converting Of the legislature, looking AFTER
temperance legislation, is In the city, ana
talks interestingly on the fight that has
been made for the passage of the Love
lady Wilson county local option law.
He said, This measure has perhaps
claimed more consideration from the
members of the legislature in potn
branches than any other proposition that
has been presented. 1t consumed TWO
days in the house and practically the
same time in the senate.
Pleased With Work.
Those interested in the work Oh the
Anti-Saloon league in this state are very
well pleased with the bill that has been
passed and which will probably receive
the signature of the governor early next
week.
II consider the passage of the county
local option law the greatest victory Tor
temperance reform in the history OF the
state of Alabama. The bill is practically
as drawn by its friends, with the eN-
ception that all dispensaries in the state
are exempted for two years. This ex-
enption, however, is hollow tooth that
decays and drops out at the END OF that
period when our law will have full apph-
ca ton TO all liquor counties in the state.
No Provision for Dispensary.
THE impression has prevailed that our
county local option law provides under
the amendment made in the senate for
an election TO be held for u dispensary.
VII tnA n
only for the question of the sale Oh
liquors and for the prohibition OK
liquors.
"Another false impression is that Sen.
ator Moody of Tuscaloosa introduced Our
bill, whereas Senator Moody had moth
ing to do with the introduction OF our
bill and is not in any way connected with
the Anti-Saloon league and it's leglstla-
ton His bill is a county local option
bill for the sale of intoxicating liquors In
dlspensaries and is an entirely different
bill from ours.
II wish to call attention to the fact
that six of the seven representatives In
the house from Jefferson county gave
hearty support to our county local OPP
ton bill and there was never any doubt
in our minds as to where a majority or
them were to be found
I'VE are interested in other very I'M
portant legislation and | think that the
full session will give us the most COM
plete temperance legislation in the his
tory of the state Of Alabama.
1.-THE Anti-Saloon league of Alabama
will not take the initiative in bringing on
an election under this Lovelady-Wilson
county local option law in Jefferson coun-
ty, or in any other county in the state.
We will pursue an aggressive course In
the making of sentiment, then, when tha.
sentiment is strong enough to bring on an
election we will give it all the help pos
sible to make the effort successful"
Mr.. Lawrence will return to Montgom-
cry tomorrow and will remain until ad-
journment for recess is taken next Sat-
| urday
