Its oxygen is not only essontial to animal hoat and life, but is also a source of powor, light and eloctricity. AIR SEWAGE What that distinguished authority, Sir Hon.jamin Rioh ardson, M. I)., has called "air-sewage" iH exhaled from' the human lungs. Aro you troublod by Air Sewage? Ah you are reading thin you are consuming air at the rate of THHH) gallons every a'l hours. Is it pure air? Is it disoased air? Aro you in danger from Lung Disease? Tlio Most Enorgeetic Disease Maker is the Bad-Air which Wo Breathe. . The use of air that has been contaminated ever so little from any source is injurious. With feeble patients it may he the deciding factor aaginst recovery. The air which has been inhaled to one person's lungs, and then exhaled in charged with his poisonous waste carbon dioxide, broken-down cells, water vapor, disease, germs and with oxygen much reduced. His exhaled air is poisonous to YOU! OZONE , , (The Nealthfulness of a Place Depends Upon the Pres once of Ozone) - , THU MIM3 PRINCIPLE OF TILE AIR Ozone is the condensed oxygen in its mostaetive state. OZONE PURIFIES THE AIR The air of the " piney woods" has a soothing and pleasant effect on the lungs. The turpentine contained in the pine produces and sets free in the air small quantities of OXONIO! The volatile oil of pine, which gives the fragrant and aromatic odor, also has the power of accumulating OZONE. 'Nature constantly vitalizes out-door air by sunshine, winds, rain, snow and elect ricaW discharges. The pecu liar fresh, invigorating, pure, sweet and wholesome air after a thunderstorm is due to the OKONE produced by the electrical discharges. Ozone is a colorless gas with a pungent odor, like that of ehlorin, formed variously, as by the passage of elec tricity through the air. It is regarded as another form of oxygen, containing three atoms in tho molecule (0). Ozone is an extremely powerful agent in causing a com pound to unite with oxygen ehemically. Ozone is both antiseptic and a deodorizer. It has the great, advantage oyer all other disinfectants that it both destroys deleterious matter in the atmosphere and imparts to the atmosphere properties which make it purer, health ier and more invigorating. Ozone when inhaled fills the blood with oxygen oxi dizes it and causes it to circulate more quickly. It also increases the oxyhaemoglobin in the blood, stimulates the appetite and assists in producing sleep. - Oxygen is a colorless, tasteless and odorless gas element, the most abundant and most important yet discovered. The weight of oxygen of the globe exceeds that of all either elements combined. It fornis by weight about 3-1 of the animal, 4-f of the vegetable, and 1-2 of the mineral worlds; also" 1-5 by volume of the atmosphere, and 8-9 by weight of water. ' Its inhalation by human beings and animals is essential to life; hence itwas formerly called vital air. The word oxygen in popular use, means fresh-out-door air.

A New Invention The OZONE PURE AIRIFIER The O.one Pure Airif ier is an ozone-producing appa ratus for purifying the air in dwellings, offices, hospitals, schools, vessels, public buildings, lodge rooms, etc. It is run by electricity. I$y merely turning a button you are able to produce in your bedroom, office or workshop, all the life-sustaining powers of fresh mountain air. The health-giving breezes of the piney woods can be summon ed to your bedside at will. At the ordinary temperature of your living rooms, large quantities of ozone are pro duced, the foul air is revitalized and filled wth pure life sustaining atmospheric ozone. The apparatus is noise less, simple to operate as an electric light, and requires only the same current. It has no complicated parts and has a "long life." No repairs necessary. The electrodes used are such as to produce the maxi- mum of pure ozone from a given current of electricity at lowest cost. The Pure-Airifier is furnished any required size to suit different purposes, ' It can be furnished for use with either an alternating or a direct current. The electricity can be taken from the ordinary house wire in the same maimer as for lighting, and is as easily attached as an electric fan. Special ozone apparatus is also supplied for purifying air in large quantities. Diffuses a Constant Supply of Ozone. What Nature does on a large scale man can do in a small er wav. The Ozone PURE AIRIFIER imitates' the action of the lighting on the out-door air, and diffuses a constant sup ply of pure ozone, "thus destroying germs and dangerous floating matter in the atmosphere. It makes the air of the apartment as fresh and pleasant to breathe as a breeze from the pine forests. No chemicals are used in the apparatus. No foreign mat-' tor is introduced into the natural air. Silent discharges of electricity restore free ozone to the atmosphere. That is all! PURE AIR The Ozone Pure Airifier is supplied to the public for the purpose of purifying Bad Air in public buildings, stores, churches, schools, lodge rooms, factories, workshops, ho tels, club-rooms, assembly-rooms, libraries, mines, stooping cars apartment buildings, offices, homes, sick rooms, etc. "While ths apparatus is more efficient than we claim in this pamphlet, having been successfully used and endors ed by loading medical authorities, it is our desire that par ties requiring it for medical use should consult ther fam ily physician. We shall be pleased to demonstrate the merits of the Pure Airifier- to your family physician and refer him to other physicians who are using the Airifier successfully, realizng the necessty of pure, fresh Ozonized Air during the period of treatment of disease and convalescence. Tho temperature of the room is not lowered, but the air iserovitalizod at the normal temperature. Silent dis charges of electricity produce pure Ozone, equal to that of the outside atmosphere after a thunderstorm. OZONE is as valuable in summer as in winter, as it makes the air lighter and easier to breathe, and while it does not change the temperature, anyone is more comfort able in Pure Air than in Bad Air. The oxpehse of Operating the Ozone Pure Airifier is a smairitem and a large office machine producing sufficient' Ozone for 12 to .15 people docs not require any more elec tricity than a 10-candle power, lamp. READ THE TOLLOWING STATEMENTS: OZONE PURE AIRIFIER CO., Chicago, 111: I ain sure jou aro entitled to the gratitude of all who come within smell of oncof your machines, for those machines not only do "tho things you brag about, but more., They produce the lacking ultra violet oscillation of tho air which is need ed in this latitude to arrest weakness and dsoaso gener ally without) any relation to what it does speciifcall'.

Latchford, President CINCAGO OAN NERS SUPPLY CO., Chicago, 111.: Chicago, 111., April 23d, 190!). Ozone Pure Airifier Com pany, Chicago, ill. Gentlemen: My sister has been a great sufferer for 14 months, during which time she never liad a night's rest, consequently she was in a very bad con dition. On February 18th, 1909, one of your Model "G" Ozone machines was placed in her bedroom and she has since steadily improved in every way, has gained twenty (20) pounds in weight, and has had her full complement of sleep. If your machine were ten times the price I would consider it cheap. Yours very truly, W. J. LATCHFORD. KEEPS BASEMENTS HEALTHY. W, H. Wright & Sons Co.: Ogden, Utah, Jan. 8th, 1910. Ozone Pure Airifier Co., Chicago, Illinois Gentlemen: We have been troubled in our basement and main sales floor with foul air. It was especially noticeable during the sloppy weather around the holidays when the store was1 crowded to its capacity. We bought three of your ozone machines, and since their installation we have demonstrated to our own satisfaction that they do keep the air fresh and sweet. In one or two instances the employees have reported to us that they feel " much better than usual, and in some cases they have gain ed weight, and they feel sure it is on account of the condi tion of the air in the store. In our bargain basement, during the holiday rush, we found one machine quite effective, and it kept the air quite sweet where ordinarily the air was very foul. Yours truly, W. H. WRIGHT, Asst. Mngr. RECOMMENDED BY PHYSICIANS Office of Dr. J. C. Hoffman, Chicago, Illinois, Oct. 20th, 1908. The Ozone Pure Airifier Company, Chicago, Illi nois Gentlemen: I have given your apparatus careful study and gladly make this statement regarding the very satisfactory results, obtained. While the use of ozone is established in Euroxje, our physicians have not yet become familiar with its Application in disease, and simply for the want of a practical, portable generator, such as you now present to the medical profession. The amount of ozone even your smallest machine generates is astonishing. Ilygienically there is a demand for the constant admix ture of ozone to the air we breathe in crowded rqoins, street cars, elevated roads, etc. When more fully educated to the importance of this, the public will demand the placing of such apparatuses in every car, in every theater, or oth er places where people congregate. There is no method so efficient as this. Ozone is nature's remedy for such evils, and ozone simply means a more generous quantity of oxy gen, the "life-giver," and the "life-sustainer." I have successfully used your generator in my prac tice. A peculiarly stubborn case of general debility, anae mia, etc., complicated by a pronounced tendency to tuber culosis, rapidly recovered solely under ozone treatment, gaining eighteen pounds in two months, and was discharg ed n excellent condition. No drugs were used. A case of impending bronclytis was aborted in two sittings. As a 'general tonic, especially when immediate results are de sired, ozone leads the list as most effective, having the great advantage of being always non-injurious and abso lutely reliable. There is no " blood-maker" like ozone; it gives the system all the benefits of mountain air without the depressing effect of the higher altitudes. I earnestly recommend your invention to the medical profession, as well as the study of ozone and its application to disease. Very respectfully Yours, (Signed) J. C. HOFFMAN.
