For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those so unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-

recovery. The doctors are alb

to an early grave.
1t is now easy to see why-the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.

doubt, that Cancer is a blood disease,
and can not be cured by the surgeons

ulcer on her tongue, which, though an
noying, was not regarded seriously at
