Researches ON Cancer.

The results to which NJ. Leblance has
arrived are:
By combining the use of the micro
scope with the other means of investigation
usually employed the diagnosis of cancer
becomes comparatively certain.
2. Cancerous tumors have been found in
the horse, mule, donkey, OK, pig, dog, cat,
rabbit and mouse.
3. Cancer has not yet been observed in
birds, reptiles, or fishes.
4. Cancer in the lower animals is char.
acterized by the cancer cells which are oh.
served when it affects men. The cancer
cell is smaller in the lower animals, par.
ticulArly 10 the smaller ones.
D. Cancerous tumOrs are COMPOSED of
cancer cells, and other structures which
occur in similar tumOrs in man. A pecu-
liar fluid can be expressed from cancerous
tumors.
g. Cancer can soften, suppurate, and al.
cerate.
7. All animals, particularly the cat, and
dog. are liable to a general caDoerous 10.
lection, which has been called the cancer
Gus cachexia.
8. Cancer has been found in all the re-
gions of the body and in all the tissues.
9. Cancer is probably incurable; even
when tumor does not reappear after ex-
cisiOn, one cannot affirm that the animal lie
cured.
10. The causes Of cancer are unknown;
carnivorIa are more liable to it than her.
bivOria and omnivoria; and amongst them,
also, those which are fed ON highly nitro
genized food are particularly subject to
career.
IL. Females are more liable to cancer
than males.
II, Cancer is hereditary; it has, at least
been observed TO be 60 10 the dog.
IL. 1t is not transmissible either from
animals to man, or from one animal to an.
other.
IA. Cancer does not disappear under
the influence of remedies.
Is. Cancerous tumors should be excise6
as soon as possible, cauterization should be
emIl Dyed when the knife fails to eradicate
the whole of the tumor.
10. When cancerous tumors have been
removed from carniverous animals, a re-
lapse is rendered less certain if the animal
be kept on strictly vegetable diet.
IL. Many tumOrs have improperly been
named cancers, amongst these may 6e cited
melanotic and gaDglonic tumors, occur
ring In the cultural region of the OK; fibre
plastic tumors of the maxilary bones; by

BY MARY W. sASVRIN.
by the smouldering western campfire
You are sleeping tonight,
Dreaming again Of the battle,
Ont in the thlckest fight;
am alone by the hearth stone,
But my heart goes rowing afar,
Counting over Its treasures,
Out IN this terrible war.
SOundly and sweetly you slumber,
Though rude is the soldiers bed;
The knapsack hard is your pillow,
While cushions have instead;
Cushions yielding and dOwny
As the bosoms Of wild swans are;
Yet rest cannot, for thoughts of you,
Out in this terrible wa.
wonder IT, for a moment,
Your heart rushed homeWa aid to me,
When mid the crash Of howitzers
You stood in TENNESSEE
Or when the rebel sharpshooter
Singled you out from afar,
To fall, like brave young hero,
Shot in this terrible war.
And afteTward in the hospital,
When you lay with your wounds and pain,
Pined you not for the tough of fingers,
So eager to clasp again
The smOke-stained hands Of her soldier,
From the battlefield afar!
oh when viii my hero come back to me,
Out Of this terrible war;
