DOGS of hinh Decree.

The Westminster Kennel Club is hold
ing It's thirty-flrst annual bench show at
the Madison Square Garden this week
and every dog with any sort of a pedigree
was there hoping to win prize The
smallest dog at the show was Mrs. p
Cooper Hewtt's papillon Bijou. weighing
less than a pound, and the heaviest fine
St. Bernard that would tip the scales
at $50 pounds. A dozen dogs were carded
in the catalogue at $4,000.
The thoroughbred Boston terrier was
especially popular, and the champions in
this class gave every evidence of know
ing their Importance, and entirely ignored
the advances of the common herd.
Imported bull dogs formed one-third of
the record entry of 200 the importations
representing fully $4,000 paid to the Eng
ish kennels by American bull dog fam
ciers in three or four years. All eyes
were riveted on the two great English
champions, Miss de Grott's Mahomet and
Mrs George Goulds Heath Baronet, both
rivals making their first bow in the show

We Paid 100000.
For the rights to Liquozone, after
thousands of tests had been made with
it, after it's 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 1t, 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 its 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 germs-as in skin troubles-di-
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-like the germs of Catarrh--
create inflammation some cause indi-
gestion. In one of these ways, nearly
every serious ailment Is 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.

The Education Boards Work.

Mr. Rockefeller's gift of S32.00O000 is to
be administered by the general education
board which was organized in this city
in 1902 and received a charter from con-
gress a year later. The first fund that
1t had In its keeping was the S10C0,OOO
that Mr.. Rockefeller gave for education
in the south But a larger gift was to
come In 1865 Mr.. Rockefeller gave to the
board $10O00,0OO in cash. The principal
was to be held in perpetuty as foun-
daton for education, the income TO De
used for the benefit of such institutions
of learning and in such ways as the
board may deem best adapted to promote
a comprehensive system of higher educa-
ton. The board formulated this detm-
ton of it's general policy;
ITO cooperate sympathetlcally ana
helpfully with the religious denomina-
tons In the higher education, to choose
the centers of wealth and population as
the permanent pivots OF an educatlohai
system and to mass its funds on endow-
ments, securing in this work the largest
possible local cooperation"
The great gift which Mr.. Rockefeller
announced the other day brings his total
contributions to the general education
board up to the total of $8,OOOOO. Few
people outside the college world know
anything of the board, Its income ana

nrimarilv formed to assist Mr. Rockefel-
Ter in distributing his gifts to the cause
of education, but it was not the purpose
to confne the work to funds proVldeu

nlsh a channel through which other men
so minded could use their donatory pos

What Liquozone Is.

Liquozone is a tonic germicide, the
virtues of which are derived solely
from oxide gases. No alcohol, no mar
cotic, 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 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 Liquozohe Is
exhilarating. vitalizing, purifying.
That is its main distinction. Com
mon germicides are poisons when
taken internally They are impossible,
for they destroy the tissues as we'll as
the germs. That is why medicine
proves SO helpless in dealing with germ

WHY THE SYMPHONY
CONCERT IS GIVEN

For many years, the Honolulu Sym
phony Society has been the means OF
providing gentlemen of Honolulu who
are talented in music and of studious
mind with the advantage of meeting
others of similar attachments. The mere
work of practising is hard at its best
and by degrees those who enjoy a social
hour after twice as many in pains
taking effort introduced a little Dutch
supper and conversation afterward.
Then there were those-there always
are-who wished to simply listen and
get the great pleasure of hearing piece
after piece of the composers rendered.
When news of the good music and in
teresting reunions came to the ears Of
the relatives and friends of the MEM
bers, the ladies were invited and even
better results followed, for occasionally
they were asked to be on the program.
1t is to include the ladies and share
this enjoyable mode of entertainment
that the present symphony entertain
ment is to be given. During the pro-
gram, most of the audience will be seat
ed and at the conclusion a few chairs
viii be cleared away and the refresh
ment room will supply a light buffet
supper that all will enjoy. The pro-
ceeds of the entertainment go to defray
the general expenses of the club.
