Many friends will be glad to learn that
she has gotten rid of her cancer. Mrs.
Kendall is one of New Ravens best
known citizens, as she is 70 years of age
and has resided for 80 years in the same
house that she now lives in. Mrs. Ken
dali has five grandchildren and thirteen
great grand children, and her husband
has been dead for ten years. Mrs. Ken
dali is member of the Methodist church
of Middlebury, VT, and probably is as
well known, loved and respected as any
woman in Vermont, and for the past
three years it has been a well known fact
that she has been fast losing her health
by cancer which was greatly bothering
her. She had it treated for one year by
a specialist all to no avail and the cancer
commenced to grow very fast and nearly
covered the side of her cheek, running to
her nose. In this condition on Nov. 1,
1908, she went to Burlington to DIR. Mer-
rows private sanitarium where in eight
days without comparatively any pain,
the loss of drop of blood or the use of
the knife Mrs. Kendalls cancer was sue
cessfully removed, and is at this writing
nearly all healed up. Mrs. Kendall has
nothing but the greatest praises for DR..
Morrow and his treatment and says she
would recommend all friends suffering
from cancer to consult him at once and
she will be only too glad to show where
the cancer was removed and explain her
case to any one who is suffering with
cancer. We understand this is the 55th
cancer that DIR. Morrow has removed
since Jan. /, 1908, in Burlington and
vicinity. advt

The indictment of Senator Dietrich, of

case that the Senators from a state have
largely controlled the distribution of
offices in that State. In sense the
Senators are brokers in affairs for their
constituency. But this is the first time

member of the Senate has been indicted

WHAT THE OLD DOCTOR SAID.

Doctor" said /, you say appendicitis
is much more common than it was
thirty years ago"
Indeed, it is replied the old doctor.
THAT we encountered this disease then,
is true, but not with such appalling
frequency. Appendicitis, these days, is
almost as common as sore throat"
ITO what, DOCTOR do you attribute
this increase of appendicitis?
ITO nasty eating and to the use of
foods which have a tendency to clog
and fret the intestines and deaden
peristaltic action. The way to avoid
appendicitis and the surgeons knife is
to shun unnatural foods that beget in
testinal torpor and constipation
People who eat Shredded Whole
Wheat Biscuit do not have constipation
and hence need not fear appendicitis.
This perfectly natural food preserves
the tone of the digestive tract and in
duces every excretory gland to sub
serve the body's interests. Have you
tried this most delicious of all cereal
foods?
II have been eating your Shredded
Wheat for over a year and it has com
pletely cured me of constipation. with
which I had been troubled for twenty
years. Joseph Jessop, Beldon Hall,
Coronado Beach, Cal.
