We require 1,250 cubic inches of gas to make one cubic inch of Liquozone. The gas is made in large part from the best oxygen producers. The process of reduction takes 14 days. It is this astounding condensation that gives Liquozone its power the power to do what oxygen does. A Million 50c Bottles Free.

The virtue of Liquozone lies in the fact that it docs what oxygen does. Oxygen is the vital part of air. It is nature's great tonic, the very source cf vitality, the most essetlal element of life. It is oxygen that turns the blue blood to red in the lungs. It Is oxygen that eliminates the waste tissue and builds up the new. Oxygen is the nerve food the blood food; and every function of life so depends on it that we ccu'.d not live three minutes without It. And an excess of oxygen i3 certain destruction to every fcrm of disease germ. But oxygen is a gas, and unstable. An excess of oxygen cannot be held in the blcod, Liquozone is a liquid, with all its virtues in permanent fcrm and concentrated. It goes into the stcmach, into the bowels, and into the blood, to go wherever the blood goes. That is the secret of Its power. Not Medicine Liquozone is not made by compounding acids or drugs; ncr is there any alcohel in it. Its virtues are . derived solely from gas largely from oxygen gas by a process requiring immense apparatus and fourteen days' time. Its results are due to the fact that a little of the liquid represents the virtues of an immense volume cf the gas. ' Liquozone is the result of a process which for more than twenty years has been the constant subject cf scientific and chemical research. It forms a vitalizing tonic with which no other known product can compare. It Is the best thing in the world for you.

Sea of Angry Waters Holds Portland in Its Grasp

(CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE. ) but began to rise again this afteruoon.The river has risen three and one-half inches at New Harmony iu ten hours and now stands twenty-two feet, which is two feet under the highest stage ever reached there. Three boats were used to-day in rescuing people and stock, the Bernice, Roy H. and Nellie Chadwick. Most of the people have be-eu taken from the bottoms. There is a great deal of wheat In bins along the lower Wabash and the boats will try to save this on Saturday morning. Refugees hav$ been pouring into New Harmony, Grayville and Mount Carmel all day. Capt. Frank O. Fitton said to-night he believed all the stock had been taken from the bottoms and he believed the worst was over unless the rise from above brought down a greater volume of water than is expected. The water works plant at Graysville is still in bad shape and it is thought to-night it will have to be shut down because of the pumps becoming disabled. The Illinois Central bridge, which spans the Wabash river between Edgewater and Graysville, has been in a. dangerous condition all day, although two trains passed over it to-day. Two hundred and fifty men are stationed at the bridge and are placing sacks of sand on it. Lata this afternoon the water was about up to the rails. The Illinois Central tracks between Barrett's switch and Black river are covered with water and sand bags are used to hold it down. Railroad conditions in this city are about the same as yesterday. The Evansville & Terre Haute Railroad will be unable to cross the bridge at Hazleton for many months to come, owing to the washout there. A large force of men is at work trying to stop the rush of water through the gap in the roadbed. All Evansville & Terre Haute trains out of here must either use the Louisville A Nashville tracks west as far as Ashley. 111., or the Illinois Central tracks to Grayxllle. The Ohio river here is at a stand, but a slight rise is expected from above. ALEXANDRIA FLOODED BY A CLOUDBURST Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ALEXANDRIA, Ind., April l.-A cloudburst, early this morning, enveloped all this vicinity in sheets of water, which quickly swelled the streams to torrents and turned the streets of the city Into raging rivers. Within two hours. the Union Traction Company and Big Four reported several washouts in the city limits. A number of families were forced to flee from their homes, leaving their furniture to the mercy of the water. By hard work the Indiana Union Traction got their Elwood line working early, but the Anderson-Marion line was forced to transfer between here and Summitville all day, while the Big Four was operated without schedules till late in the day. Lightning in the wake of the storm damaged the Delaware and Madison telephone lines and burned some barns and damaged others near the city. For a time the, city water works pumps were under water and higher water would have soon stopped them. The lowlands about the city were converted into a river a mile wide, taking before the flood everything movable, meaning In many cases much loss to farmers and oil men. who lose derricks and tools. Between this city and Anderson to-day the country was almost wholly under water. ARISTOCRATIC SECTION OF ANDERSON FLOODED Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ANDERSON. Ind.. April 1. Water Is running across East Eighth street, in this city, in Park Place, to-night. No one in t.'iat suburb is sleepinf or if any is some cne in the family is on guard. The water is backed up high against the levee at Twelfth street, and this dyke is all that Is saving the houses in Park Place from the force of the current. The river is still rising. Reports from the south part of the county show that Fall creek is as high as at this time last week, and in some places higher. During the storm this morning the barn of John Broderick, a farmer north of the city, was struck by lightning and destroyed. Thirteen horses, nine cows, three sows with pigs and thousands of dollars' worth of grain and farming implements were destroyed. Broderick's house was burned early in January, and the family, consisting of father, mother and fourteen children, has been living in a temporary shack. REPAIR WORK UNDER WAY AT WASHINGTON Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON. Ind.. April 1. Flood conditions are much improved here. The waters are receding, and unless there is an early recurrence of the heavy rains, the rivers and creeks will be within their banks in a day or two. Farmers are very anxious about the condition of winter-sown wheat in the bottoms- and the condition of the public roads is being given careful consideration, as it undoubtedly will cause much expense to the county. A large force has been at work repairing the washout which occurred on the Evansville & Indianapolis Railway near this city yesterday morning, but the road may not be ready for tratflc before Monday. Sixty feet of trestle must be constructed. As toon aa ibid la done it is expected that

KUIs Inside Germs. But the vital value of L'quozone lies in the fact that it kiils germs in the body without harm to the tissues. There is nothing else known which will do that. Any drug that kills germs is a poison, and it cannot bs taken internally. Every physician knows that medicine is almoit helpless in any germ disease. Liquozone is a germicide so certain that we publish on overy bottle an offer of $l,COD for a diseaie germ that it cannot kill. The reason is that germs are vegetables; and that Liquozone the very life ot an animal is deadly to vegetable matter. Animals live by oxygen: vegetables by carbonlo acid gas. and the life of one is, in excess, d;adly to the oher. It is this fact that has enabled the discoverers of Liquozone to solve this greatest problem that medical men ever m;t It has given us a product essential to the human body a product which can go wherever the blood gots, to that no germ can escape it; yet a product which no germ can resist. It is apparent that the resu.ts are inevitable, for no germ disease can exist after the germs are killed. We Paid $100,000 For the American rights to Liquozone the highest price ever paid for similar rights on any scientific discovery. Before doing this we tested the product for two years, through physicians and hospitals. In this country and ethers. We proved It in thousands of the most difficult cases obtainable. Including every disease which was then callsd incurable. This price was paid because Liquozone will do more for r.ick humanity than all the skill In the world can accomp.ish without it. the Evansville & Terre Haute Railway, on account of the Hazleton washout, will use this road between Evansville and Washington, then ever the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern to Vlncennes, where it will reach its own tracks. The Evansville & Indianapolis Railroad succeeded In getting a train from Terre Haute to Washington to-day, the first in nearly a week. EXPOSURE KILLS TWO . BELOW f VINCENNES Special to the Indianapolis Journal. VINCENNES, Ind.. April 1. Great distress prevails in this vicinity and the flood continues unabated. The back waters continue to rise and the Wabash has receded but one-tenth of a foot, with prospects of a further rise. Appeals for help came this evening from Russellville, 111., three stores there being entirely out of provisions. A steamboat will be loaded to-morrow and sent to the relief of the water-bound town. James and Leonard Jordan and their families were brought to town this evening in a greatly emaciated condition. They were In skiffs three days, escaping from the inundated hamlet of Glassridge, and were thirty-six hours without food. Word reached here to-night that two people are dead from exposure at Band Mill, in lower Vlncennes township. They are Jacob Kellums, an old soldier, and Mrs. Alice Christy. Their bodies are on the second floors of their boxlike houses, and it Is a problem how to get the bodies out over the high water for interment. ROADS WASHED OUT NEAR C0NNERSVILIE Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CONNERS VILLE, Ind., April 1. The heaviest rainfall of the season fell last night and flooded everything. The river is again a torrent and travel between this city and East Connersville is cut off. No east or west mails have been received. The middle abutment of the Arlington bridge west of this city on the C, H. & D. is washed out and a bridge at Carthage, east. Is also washed out. The Big Four road is inundated three miles north of the city, and going north no time can be made on account of the unsafe condition of the roadbed In many places. Farm lands in the bottoms have been almost ruined by deposits of sand and gravel, while others have been benefited by a rich loam deposit. MANY HOMES AGAIN INVADED AT WABASH Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WABASH, Ind., April 1. The rain which set in again late Thursday afternoon continued unabated until this morning, and as a result of the steady downpour the Wabash river Is again spread out over the lowlands. The water has invaded many homes on the flats, to which the people, after last week's flood, had returned. The river rose two feet yesterday afternoon and the rise continued until this afternoon, when the stream became stationary, and no further trouble is apprehended. Service on both the Fort Wayne & Southwestern and Wabash River traction lines is abandoned. IV AB ASH RIVER 'AGAIN RISING AT LAFAYETTE Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LAFAYETTE. Ind..- April 1. The Wabash river is rising rapidly again and the Brownstreet levee is again submerged. Since yesterday there has been a rise of nearly three feet in the river, which had been receding previously since Sunday. There is every indication of the flood reaching the high mark of last week. Traffic was resumed on the Northwestern traction line to-day for the first time since last Friday morning. The interurban line has suffered greatly from the flood. The Monon is still having much trouble on account of high water and washouts. WATER AGAIN COVERS STREETS OF KOKOMO Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO. Ind., April 1. Kokomo is threatened with another flood. The constant rain of yesterday and last night has put all the smaller streams out of their banks, flooding Sycamore and Walnut rtreets and washing- out a street-railway bridge. The levee protecting South Kokomo from the Wildcat Is again under a very severe strain ind is agaln expected to break. People are moving out of the lower districts. RIVER IS FALLING NEAR PETERSBURG Special to the Indianapolis Journal. PETERSBURG. Ind.. April 1. A break in the levee at Hazleton caused the river

It will cure sickness, end more suffering, and save more lives than all the drugs combined. And now that- this fact is generally known, we occupy four laboratories, with 22 floors and 603 employes, to supply the dermnd for Liquozone. and we are 20 carloads behind on demands for it to-day. Garm Diseases The diseases in this list are known to be due to germs or their toxins, and medicine does not apply to them, for medicine cannot kill insids germs. All that medicine can do In germ troubles is to act as a tonic, aiding nature to overcome the germs. Such results are indirect and uncertain. They are, as many of you know by experience, always doubtful and often impossible. Th:y depend on tho patient's condition. Liquozone goes direct to the cause of the trouble and destroys it. We have often seen It end, in a week, diseases which had resisted medicine for years. And it cures diseases which medicine never cures. In any stage of any disease in this list the results are so certain that we will gladly send to any patient who asks It an absolute guaranty. Asthma. Abscess Anemia. Bronchitis. Blood Poison.
