r A Great Discovery
J When Pasteur discovered, in 1852,
that the infection of -pounds was
caused by malignant, bacteria, he per-
formed a service of inestimable value
to mankind. Since then medical science
has been producing better and better
antiseptics, to kill these germs that
may enter the smallest cut and give us
diseases such as typhoid, tuberculosis
and lockjaw. Now, all you have to do to
be sure that these dreadful germs will
not infect a wound, is to wash that
wound, however'small, thorougnly with
Liquid Borozone, the modern, antisep-
tic. You can get Liquid Borozone, m a
to lit your necus anu purse, from
