There are some rare forms OF cancer
which are better removed by the plas-
ter treatment. while in very exceptional
cases II happens that il Is better TO re-
move them with the knife. but ia ninty-
nine cases out of one hundred they can
only be permanently removed by other
methods than either the knife or plaS-
ter. Applications and appliances 70

ties, eminently successful, while in
other kinds, applications that destroy
