WHAT EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CANCER, So '>i"tcn wc honr: •'Doctor, what Is tbe ^aiisc of cancer?" And, the doctor bowB bl8 icaU, -.M Inkles his brow, and then, with often 2 (.lj;h. you'll bear him answer: "I don't (mov." He speaks thdtratb. Wc do not kno\7 19 yet. speclficaHy what the actnal cause of ranrer Is. Tbo profcssloa of tbc healing art |9 dIvliWl on tbat question. Some are tbc ddlnToijls of the so-called Cchnhelm tbcory «r a lieredJtar; acquisition, others ore staunrli supporters of the belief that cancer <9 caused by an Infection with certain germs, Wc must keep In mind that despite our ef- forts cancer bos been on tbe Increase right iiloog. In other words, the enemy Is creep- iDC vn .1 iion-suspcctlng and Ignorant public, and sli.-ittcrs borne, rob.s brilliant ond Indls- peneublc persons, and slowly but progresslve- ij le$crl9 Its poisonous fangs Into tbe heart of our population. It Is stated on good authority tliat out of every eight women in lOngland, who attain the age of thirty-fire years, one Is slain b.T It In our own coun- try, In inf)8, /orty thousarKt people sue- oumbed to It. !>o ilicre you arc: Wo are confronted with a foriiildut>lc enemy and do not know just bon' !io attacks or whence be comes. How- ever, vblle the theorists are wrangling about (his or that pet theory of theirs bcrng the c.trrci'i oni.'—of one thing we arc certain, and that Is: Wc know that <rrJ(a(io» of anv kimi ill any part of the body is an eatab- liihei cause for cancer. Let us pause for a laomcnt and analyze this statement. It le a fact timt caucer most frequently makes Ite ' appc.'iran.''e In portions of tbe body wbero some I'nrni o( Irritation has existed for some time. 'J'nke, for Instance, cancer of the Up. 'I'bis l3 a frequent form of cancer and nearly .ilway.'i alTcois men. Why? And why the lower lip? Because men smoke, and as u rule 'noioen do not, and tbe smoker usually Irritates tbc lower Up with his pipe-stem or the clgnr. nad there, graduaUy but surely, (be Irritation going on for months or yearj usually plants the seed for tbe serious con- siKiucnces. Here comes a fellow who shows the beginning or {lerbaps an advanced growth of n portion of his tongue. Just examine the tooth or teeth corresponding to the site of his trouble, and lo! a Jagged tooth has been Irritating tbo tongue for many, many mnntlis or longer, and tbe tissues of the toDgue become affected with cancer. Irrita- tion ngnln. Uerc we see a pnllld Individual, leaving the onicc of. the stomach specialist, the vic- tim of cancer of tbe stomach. Scrutinizing his luiet history wo would discover that be hud been suffering ior some time past with n chronic catarrh of that ort;nn. a chronic form ot Indigestion, or Irritation If you please that caused the trouble and Implanted the llte-destroylng cancer cells Into this poor fclloiVs food receptacle. Again Irritation. Oiton wc open a gall-bladder, during opera- tions, for tbc removal of gall stones, and to our diagrln find that cancer bad started In the gall passages as a result of trrftaffon iiom the gnll stones scratching on tbe walls ot the gnll bladder. It removed In time the patient's life would be saved. An lrr((at(or» from a stone In the faldne^, tbe bladder, or In any other hoHow organ, In time leads to this fatal complloatlon. Thousands of mothers leave their hom"? untimely, through cnnoer of tbc breast and womb. The Irritation here from nurilng the '>''7 and repeated chlldblrthB are the facto.Ti "bleh Invite the cancerous formation. The volumes of evidence collected to prove the effects of Irritation on tbe tissues as a precurssor of cancer, offer conclusive evidence of ts Importance, The Irritation may be merbanlcal, thomal, chemical or Infective, lor Instance: It Is.not at aU unusual to find cnnri.r develop at tbe sites of cicatrices re- suiiiiig from hums, or In ulcers flsoures and P^J^ bos ot chronic InSamatlon.' .u Tc Is n certain form of chbnney sweeps ■eaiiiiT which results from the constant Irrl- 'flloii of tbe parts by the soot with which l ie sweep comes In dolly contact Other Ir- r lani.j, Bueh as parnniii and tar. and a vnrl- "^■y or others are known to have caused cai)ifr.<!. n„:\'"' world over, the sages of tho mm. •'' Pro'wslou are constantly at work, mi.iions and mUllons of dollars are being ni'''i?"",''"y- attempt to rtetoltely esiaHlsh the cause of cancer growths, but I'M'i'e nil the effort and energy we arc Just wiH.ro we were a century ago. has the medical world changed I'J ",>iMlon8 about tbe treatment of this ter- li; "oxree of tho human family?

'n^ailea vital stmctnres and -enled lymph glands, tbe time la wasted by tbe quack with promises untU the con- dition Is "absolutely hopeless." There are certain established facts at the preecnt time which should be Inculcated Into the minds of the general public, and It this knowledge be disseminated In lay- circles, preached from pulpits, taught through tne newspapers and tn lectures, I can see no greater service that could pos- sibly be rcndere<l to God's children. "What are these rules?" They follow: Avoid Irritations ot any kind. Suspicious looltlng new formations should at once be investigated. Remember, cancer ia curable when taken In time. Discard Ibc Idea ot medicine. There Is no tnrrtfrfne for cancer. The only medicine Ip surgical remoi'nl by a competent man. Cancer Is, In the opinion of the majority, not contagious. To wait, me.tns death; to act, get cured. No case of cnncor la hopeless when given early attention. lie optimistic and do not give up. Pewaic of (iiiacka who promise cures from salvcH. secret medicines and methods "known only to thorn." 'I'hcy arc fakes, piire and :>lmple. The hope ot tbe cure of cnnccr lies In early dlocnosls. lliirc Is where the "rub" Is "i-arly diagnosis"—how nice that sounds He.ro Is where conscientious medical men shine .nn<l often show tho light path to their sur- gical brothers. It aji earlv diagnosis be made, early trcntmont mav h? Instituted and a cure hoped for. Dut who should make the early diagnosis? Tbe doctor' Ves, but tbe ludivIdii.Tl should consult hiniso'f first Here Is a rule which applies to both sexes: It jou notice something abnomioj about your bo<illy functions, which were normal to the rwent time, and your attention Is being dl- JWtod to a given set ot symptoms or tbo npiK-arnnce of a sivclllng or perhaps a hemor- rhage, consult a modem, well tr:ilne<l phvsi- clan and insist on a diagnosis. Dc not" be satisfied with doubtful answers. You should know positively. ■ For example, not so many years ago a sr.lfcrer from cancer ot the stomach wna looked upon as an Individual doomed to die, and with n sigh the physician ot yestcrdav Informed the Immediate relatives of tbe existing condition. It Is different In the present day. It an early diagnosis Is made wo do not wait, nor do wc give pills and powders, but we at once prepare to attack tbe encmv and eradicate him as thoroughly as possible. Tho result Is that hundreds ot Individuals who. In years gone by, would ho pnrrnlttcd to slip Into the downward road, are now restored to useful citizenship and are able to provide for their homes and make their dear ones happy. It has been shown by physiological experi- ments that halt or one-third of the stunmch will carry nn the functions necessary tor the maintenance of health, and the surgeon has token advantage of this knowledge, with the result that CHnccr ot the stomach—a hope- less affection In the days past—Is now re- garded as curable token taken earlu. So then, when your stomach rebels and you begin to lose weight or feel Indisposed, en- deavor to find out what Is the trouble. When the question "operation" Is broached to most Individuals It naturally follows that a certain fear permeates their being. But It must be kept In mind that It Is not the operation, If skillfully performed, that kills; 1'. Is the malady. Skillful surgeons. In theee davs of advanced surgical tccnnlquc, do not tear the operative mortsllty. When the ques- tion ot cancer Is' considered the student of to-dnv Is taught that "the risk Is not In surgery, but In the delay of Its pcrforro- nnco." Next to cancer ot the stomach comes cancer ot the Hp In men, and cancer of tbc breast and womli In tbe opposite sex. It Is a sad stat! ot affairs that compared with other countries our blessed Urion Is lax In liislTuctIng women about wliat they should know In regard to cancer, what they must know about It and how to rccognlie Its carlT manifestation. In the hope of redncing the appalling mortality from this dreaded at- aictlnn to n minimum. They legislate and ro- atrlct the sule of opium, and.mcpsures of equal or lesser Importonce are brought to lpe<-ome laws, but strange, this very vital question Is only lightly or not nt all dis- cussed. The result Ir that our women are kept In Ignorance; there Is no one who troubles to toll thorn the fhlngs they must know, and we stand amazed and wondor wby so comparatively few perish as a result of cpjKcr In other landa In view of the appalling fact sbown by statistics ot registration, that one out of eleven of all women die of cancer, and after reaching the age ot thlrtv-Ovo the mortality Increases from one to nine, and that most ot these are uterine cancer, the question nrlses—.'ays Dr. Chase—whether the medical profession docs not owe nn unfilled obliga- tion to this most unfortnnate class of suf- ferers. While largo benefactions and well organized efforts ore ministering to tho com- fort of the tuberculous, there is not In New York State, nor to my knowledge In any other State, any systematic humane plan to reach these more terrible cases. In which the patients arc condemned to belplcss suffering and torturing death. No less an authority on tho subject than Cnllen ejpreoacs himself as follows: "It Is absolutely necessary that the people be enlightened as to how to diagnose cnnccr early, and an to what can be done for them lo tho enrly stages. Informa- tion on this politt should be. and In some Instnnces Is bclngpubllshed In Journals read exclusively by women. They are being told what constitutes cancer symptoms, and this will mean that a largo percentage of these cases will he cured." The Bvmptoms of uterine cancer are Weed- ing and' discharge. If to this be added a losB In weight. I''abl"t7,t''"^'I'SrSL'^ifi^:^ a change In the general physical dlBposIt on nt the womnn, she had better be on the lookout. It Is folly to wait and say: -r watch for a while and see how It develops." This watching for developments permits valuable time to paBS, and very often II "■""""Vro be oontinued next week.)
