Do Not Give Up in De-
spair-There is Hopel

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those so unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope OF
recovery. The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might
we'll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
1t IS now easy to see why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. Bat the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, for
the Cancer promptly returns and Is
always more virulent than before
1t has been demonstrated, beyond
doubt, that Cancer is a blood disease
and can not be cured by the surgeons
knife because the blood can not be cut

Several years ago my wife had an

OF water will be furnished without
