Sunday, a New York physician died
from the effects of a cancer, which it is
believed he acquired by incubation.
Several months ago he treated woman
for a sore upon the tongue by applying
nitrate of silver to it with his finger. a
short time later while shaving he cut his
face and applied powder to the cut with
the same finger which he used in apply
ing the nitrate of silver to the woman 3
tongue. 1t developed that the woman
had cancer, also that she had been in
the habit of using speaking tube for
merly used by her employer, who died from
cancer in the mouth. Soon the cut upon
the doctors face assumed the form of a
most malignant type of cancer. This
series of facts would seem to demonstrate
conclusively the theory of incubation IN
cases OF cancer. But what the world is
just now DESTROYS of learning is not 81
much what the cause of cancer may he a.

1t almost seems more than coincidence
that on the field where the North and the
South suffered most keenly the terrible
ordeals of war they should together ex-
perience greatest delight in that peace
hath her Victories in which both may
share and share alike. Yet this is true of
the arena whereon the series OF battles
beginning at Chattanooga and ending at
Lookout Mountain ere fought. The loss
of life in those battles is frightfui TO con,
template. We are accustomed from the
vivid descriptions that have been written
of the charge Of the Light Brigade at
Balaklava to think Of that as the most
desperate undertaking in modern warfare.
But statistics show that the loss of life
was only 3G.7 whereas at Chattanooga
gone Of the regiments suffered loss
nearly twice as great. One Confederate
regiment. the tenth Tennessee, lost G0
uer cent Of it's strength and none of the
regiments lost less than 40 per cent, while
the Union loss per regiment was nearly
as large as the Confederate The statistics
OF the Franco Prussian war do not show
a loss approaching this in magnitude. 1t
is indeed well 10 make the most of peace
