GREAT INTEREST BEING SHOWN
IN THE NEW AKOZ MINERAL
KELLY & POLLARD'S DRUG STORE ARRANGES
FOR INTRODUCTION IN Ell PASO OF JOHN
D. MACKENZIE IS DISCOVERY.

Full arrangements have been made by
Kelly & Pollard's drug store for intro
ductiOn commencing tomorrow in FL
PasO of Akoz the remarkable new me-
dicinal mineral discovered in the Sierra
Nevada mountains of California by John
D. Mackenzie, former state harbor COM
missioner and state labor commissioner
of San Francisco.
Such marvels have been performed
by the Akoz remedies when used else
where for stomach trouble, rheuma-
tism, catarrh. skin diseases and other
ailments that an exceptional demand
will undoubtedly be made on Kelly &
POllards drug store, beginning tomor-
row forenoon with the opening OF the
demonstration.
Already much interest is being mani
tested locally as to just what Akoz is
Mr.. Mackenzie, the discOVerer of the
remarkable mineral, has the following
to say regarding it:
Mans search for gold resulted in the
discovery of this mineral which 1 be-
lieve Is destined to bring far greater
happiness to mankind than all the
gold that has ever been produced. A
PROSE ector came upon ledge in the
Sierras that showed a trace of gold.
Much to his surprise. after handling
the ore, as prOSpectorS will, the rheu-
matism left his hands. Being a Har-
ward graduate, he sought the reason.
He suspected the rock had worked the
cure, but he was not convinced until
he had also relieved the ailments of
his friends.
an time I learned OF the wonders
of Akoz and personally had numerous
tests of the mineral made. After three
years of erimenting I felt certain
that Akoz was destined to be a great
boon to humanity and so I organized
the Natura company of San Fran
cisco. which is now putting the Akoz
remedies on the market. It seems that
the Indians were also aware of the
