RoENToGN RAYs CURE CANCER
Is Only Effective Where Growth is
Not pccp-Seated.


Berlin. May 4-The treatment OF
cancer by Roentgen rays rather thaa
by the knife was discussed at the sos-
sion Of the international congress
called 10 celebrate the 12th anniyer-
saTy Of the discovery Of the Roentgen
ray. Professor Lassa-. of Berlin. who
is regarded as an authority on dis.
onses of the skin, read a paper aver
ring that he had only three failures In
this cure for cancer In some hundreds
OF cases he had treated Tho ray was
effective only where the growths We're
not deep-seated because its healing
effect only penetrated TO a depth of
onehfth OF an inch The ray seemed
ineffective for large growths
Professor Lassar added that he had
met with success in the removal of
gangrenous cancer growths by Roent
gen rays such as would have seemed
impossible to bold imaginations a few
years ago. He dealt at length with
the gangrenous properties Of the rays
and the necessity of extreme care.
Professor lmelmann, of Berlin, read
a summary of reports on GO cases OF
cancer treated by DR.. Comas, of Lis
bon. whose results had been equally
successful with those Of Professor
Lassar.
Professor Ungcr, of Berlin,was skep
tical of cures in serious cases. lie
knew Of no cure OF cancer of the

the customer, that Of the hundred
odd watches brought here every day
to be cleaned. about ninety. on the av-
erage, belong TO men? A woman's
watch seldom requires overhauling.
That is because she wears no waist
coat.
The waistcoat pocket used by most
men as a watchholder is usually a
scavenger box in miniature. Into Il
drift dust. cigar ashes. and floss from
clothing, until it becomes a veritable
muck heap. The stuff finds its way
easily through the stem setting and
between the outer and inner case, and
the watch goes wrong

Faust"
Lewis Morrison himself as Mephis-
TO In Faust viii present this ia
nous character at the opera house
Friday March a. While the world
endures, Goethes tragic story Of
Faust and Marguerite will cont nue. to
live. The story has been celebrated in
song and in its operate form has
been deliberately staged for many
years but it has remained for Lewis
Morrison to present il in worthy
dramatic form with all the effects and
accessories necessary TO make it ef-
fectiVe. Mr.. Lewis Morrison assumes
the role of Mephisto and makes him
a jolly. joyial devil well calculated TO
tempt the souls of men with the CLAM
our of forbidden pleasures. The
scenic effects are most elaborate and
serve to accentuate the dramatic sit
nations in vivid manner. The cleo.
trical effects produce some astonish.
ing and notable surprises. AT the
end of the first act, when Mephisto
eXults over the capture Of The soul
Of Faust amid darkness and thunder
a blazing cross appears over the ca
fhedral door. In the garden scene,
again, the flowers burst into bloom by
electricity, and in the duel scene.
when Mephisto comes to the aid of
Faust. the flashing steel produces a
pale blue electric flame, giving a
weird effect, which reaches a climax
in the scene of the carnival on the
Broken where the electric fluid
plays an important part, ending in a
shower of electric fire, and in the
closing scene where the angel Mar
guerite is bearing the form of Faust
heavenward. Mr. Morrison is sup
ported by an excellent company Of
players.
