A Small
Spot May
Be Cancer

Tt is very often that the most insig-
nificant symptoms are forerunners of
the most violent disease. There is
not more destructive disease than
Cancer. and IN 4 majority of cases il
is first indicated by a very small scab
or sore, to which no attention is at
tracted, until it before long develops
into most alarming conditions.
Here is such case, where the first
symptoms were too small TO be noticed
for quite time. Mr.. J.. b. Arnold be-
longs to one of the oldest and best
families of Carolina; he is we'll and
favorably known throughout South
Carolina, and has resided AT Green
wood for years. Cancer Is hereditary
IN the family, an aunt on each side
having died from II. Several years
ago a small spot, like tiny ulcer.
abont the size of bird-shot, appeared
Just under his left eye, above the cheek
bone. He thought nothing of II for
some time, until II began 10 grow rap
idly, spreading all the time, and de-
stroying the flesh as it went.
