The virtues of Liquoione are derived solely from srasea bv a nrOcesa re quiring large apparatus, and from 8 to H days' times. No alcohol, no nar cotics are In It. ; Chemists of the high est class direct the making. The re sult is to obtain from these harmless gases a powerful tonlc-germlclde. ine great value of Liquozone lies in the fact that it is deadly to germs, vet harmless to yon, Oerms are of vege table origin, and this gas-made pro duct, when absorbed by them, stnns their activities. We publish an offer of $1,000 for a disease germ that It can not kill.. But to the body Liquozone Is exhilarating, vitalizing, purifying. It Is helpful in the extreme. That Is, Its main distinction. Com mon germicides are poisons when taken Internally. That is why medi cine proves so nearly helpless in a germ disease. Liquozone Is a tonic. OREGON TRAIL. Pioneer to Ret ra verse It In Old-Time Prairie Schooner. Portland Oregonian. For a man of 76 yeras old to walk 2,600 miles in eight months Is a her culean undertaking that any young man might well hesitate over before attempting, but nevertheless this is wnat Ezra Meeker Intends to do. This aged pioneer, who crossed the olalns In 1852. starts on his Journey to retrace the "Old Oregon Trail" on Wednesday morning from Port and. e will ao to The Dalles by steamship and there will begin his long walk, driving his team of oxen attached to his old time prai rie schooner. Mr Meeker says he walked to the Northwest driving his team of oxen, and that this will of course, be the way he will return to Indianapolis, Ind.. whence he started for the Oregon country in 1862. Ezra Meeker arrived In Portland with his team of oxen and prairie schooner on Thursday "night. He is now camped on a tract of land near Seventh and Mill streets. He Is ac companied by two employes, who will make the Journey with him. One of them is a photographer who will take views of various points of Interest along the trail which was travelled by the hardy pioneers of the early days. Mr. Meeker has Just finished retrac ing the old trail across the State of Washington, which he travelled In the spring of 4 1863. He left Turn water on Feb. 20 and drove his team of oxen to Toledo, coming by boat to Portland, Mr. Meeker went over virtually the same route last summer when be came to the exposition, but this time he wanted to be more thorough In his work. He says that he found the old trail In many places and that stone monu ments will be erected at various places where he discovered it. A stone mon ument has been erected at Terilno al ready, and others will be placed In po sition at Turn water, Bush Prairie, Ventralla, Chehalls, Jackson's Prairie, ClaquatO and Toledo. He says that much of the country is familiar to him and that with the assistance of many of the old-timers he experienced little difficulty In locating the old trail that .was traversed by the pioneers who were on their way to the sound. In 1852 Mr. Meeker arrived at The Dalles. From there he came to Port land, weher he spen the winter. In the following spring he returned up the river to Toledo, where he resum ed his Journey to the sound, finally locating at Puyallup. He is anxious to travel over exactly the same route, which he traversed when he first came to the Northwest, and that Is the rea son why he came to Portland first be fore going to The Dalles. Mr. Meeker said yesterday mat when he came to the Oregon country t took him about six and a half months to make the Journey from Indlnaapolls. Following the old trail, it ia about 2.600 miles to Portland. He says, it will take him about eight months to make the return trip as considerable lime will be spent In locating the old trail. He will pass through the States of Oregon, Idaho. Wyoming. Nebraska, Illinois and through part of Indiana. . make arrangements stharolnetaolnaol He Is of the opinion that he will have but little difficulty In finding the old trail. Wherever he discovers it he will make arrangements for the erec tion of stone markers. He will not stop on his Journey to erect these marger but will Interest oldtlmers of the different sections through which he passes. Mr. Meeker drove his team of exen through the streets of Portland yes terday and attracted the attenion of thousands of persons. The sight of an old gray-haired pioneer driving a team of oxen attached to a prairie schooner Is very rarely seen in this modern age. Mr. Meeker walked along by the side Of the oxen, which are so splendidly trained that they are directed by a mere wave of the hand. He carried in his hands a small whip, which he j rarely uses. The oxen are enormous j animals, of powerful build, and Mr. Meeker takes great pride in mem.

The list of known germ diseases now numbers about one hundred. Bom germs as In - skin troubles directly attack the tissues. Some create 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 In digestion. Directly or indirectly, near ly every serious aliment is a germ result Some diseases call for Liquo zone not drugs, which can't kill germs. Every germ attack, no matter what its symptoms, calls for a germicide. The mildness of Liquozone makes some chase a pair of milch cows, which he will also attach to the prairie schoon er. He says, cows are very convenient to have along because of the milk they give. He says he had two cows and two oxen attached to the prairie schooner when he emigrated; across the plains. The conveyance is practically all made out of remnants of prairie schooners which were hauled over the old trail. On one side of the canvass Is a map showing the "Old Oregon Trail" traced by a red line. When Mr. Meeker arrives at Indian apolis he will be Joined by his wife, who Is now In Seattle, and who made the trip with him across the plains. She Is 73 years old, but Is not so hardy as Mr. Meeker, and he did not think it advisable to take her along with him. There Mr. and Mrs. Meeker will cele brate their 66th wedding anniversary. Before returning to the Nortciwest Mr. Meeker will write a book. In which he will describe the old trail as It was In 1862 and as it Is now. "I am old In years only." said Mr. Meeker yesterday afternoon. "My health Is perfect and I am in splendid condition to walk the 2,500 miles. It will be a pleasure for mil to do so. I always walk when driving the oxen. We will camp out along the route and will not sleep In a house until we reach Indianapolis." Mr. Meeker wHl give a lecture in the committee room at the city hall to-night, to which all the old pioneers are invited. No admission will be charged. About thirty or more stere opticon views will be shown of old time characters and of scenes along the "Old Oregon Trail." This is the season of llstlessness, headaches and spring disorders.

Beasleyy of North Caro lina, Requests That Ho he Made a Member of the Commission to Mark Soldi era Graves. Washington Post. 16th. - There is a man In i North Carolina who wants to perform a service for the government without being paid for. It. He Is Col. W. F. Beasley. of Plymouth, N. C, the youngest man who com manded a Confederate brigade in the civil war. Col. Beasley wants to serve a a member of the commission provided by the Foraker act to locate the graves of Confederate dead that are to be properly marked. The Secretary of War ts expected to name the commis sioner to-day for this purpose. Col. Beasley has addressed the fol lowing letter to Secretary Taft: "To the Secretary of War: 1 "In asking to bo appointed Confed erate commissioner, without' salary, under the Foraker bill, I was simply seeking to meet the superb action of Congress by a personal act worthy of the sacrifices made by my comrades whose graves are to be marked. "The labor to be performed or that Is required, under the act as passed would not require a month's time. though It might extend through two years. "I would feel that I had destroyed my record as a soldier by accepting pay for such services. If you have not made, the appointment and will grant me an interview, I am confident you would quickly see and appreciate the high stand I take in regard to this matter. tne ex-uonreaerates should pay their commissioner It he must be paid.
