A SHORT time ago 1t was announced
that specific for cancer had been dis.
covered in a Brazilian plant called cal :
velOz." A Washington correspondent
announces, on the authority of medi-
cal man Of that city, that the wonderful
improvement in Gen. Grant is due to the
use of this drug. According to the tes-
timony of this gentleman, the authori-
ties of the state department had for
wardsd a supply to Grants physicians,
and they have been using it ION the sly.'
At the state department, when inquiry
was made, disposition was shown to
say nothing upon the subject. but after
close questioning, it was admitted that
some of the drug had been recently
sent to Grants physicians. DR.. Hamil-
ton, surgeon general of the Marine board,
says he has used it with wonderful effect,
and that he has no doubt that Grants
improvement is due to its administra-
ton. He also declares that he has effect
ed a radical cure of cancer through its
use. and is evidently a firm believer in
this new addition to the pharmacopeia.

My goods are all paid for, of course they are

Or never could sell them at prices so low.
Some say I'll be bankrupt, but that's not fact;
never wanted the benefit of any such act.

And never had dollar but honestly made.

Can make a good living with profits not big.

That no mortal in town in prices can beat.
