PIPE SMOKERS LIABLE
TO DEVELOP CANCER
FAMOUS LONDON SURGEON SAYS
NoN-sMoKERs ARE LIABLE
Tells of One Patient Who Abstained
From Tobacco All His Life and De-
Veloped Fatal Disease When 40
Years OId-Dentist Cites Case
specIal cahle to The Herald.

Special Gable to The Herald.
LONDON, Jan. 4.--As several Amer
lean surgeons have issued a terrible
warning to smokers that cancer turks
i'm the bowl of the pipe, is stamped on
the band of the fat cigar and i'm the
slender shape of the insidous cigarette.
famous London surgeon was asked
for his opinion. He said:
1T is difficult to give an opinion on
the subject. A man may come to me
with some malignant disease of the
throat and mouth who never has been
seen without a pipe, and his friends
say L told you So
Nom Smokers Equally Liable
But people forget that many non
smokers develop cancer. L saw a pa
tient this morning who is 40 years
old and carefully has avoided tobacco
all his life, believing, in consequence.
that he would escape the universal
curse. He had cancer of the tongue,
and l could give him only a few months
to live.
There is no doubt" he added. that
those whose families show long rec
ord of disease should live by rule and
smoke little. A small wound in the
mouth may have malignant tendencies,
which, if the pipe or cigarette had been
luISd hcll loI IL COUPE Vi weeks, might
have healed normally instead of ie-
veloping into generous growth"
Woman Gives Cigarettes Cure
On the other hand, n clever dentist
who is at the top of his profession
considers smoking a safeguard against
disease and believes the spread of cam
Ger is due to unhealthy conditions of
the mouth.

who evidently never expended u min
ute on the care of their teeth. ] be-
lieve the supposed injurious effect of
tobacco is greatly exaggerated. A case
came under my notice a day or two
ago of "A woman whose teeth were in a
terribly septic condition and who suf-
fered from liberation of the gums.
She informed me when / wondered
at her immunity from internal disease,
that she owed it to smoking twenty
cigarettes a day and thus purified and

Germany's Example

"T know that plate-glass windows
are necessary for tradesmen, but it is
surely not needful to construct shops
that look as if they rested entirely on
plate-glass bases, which fill one with
the horrible fear that they may topple
over at any minute.
For instance, in a German city that
know, which contains perhaps the
finest timhered buildings in the world.
it was necessary for the purposes of
modern commerce to reconstruct them.
But they did not pull them down. In
stead they removed the whole of the
interiors, leaving only the shell. Then
inside they constructed their fire
proof floors, their electric lifts and the
rest of the things they wanted. But
the exterior of the buildings re-
NAMED as of old.
I'm London Il great harm has been
done already but surely further van
dalism might be stopped. There are
I suppose. only about seven great
streets in the world. and Regent street
is one of them, And now, by rebuild
ing operations. we are to lose the
beauty of that.

1HAw AND HIS MOTHER BREAK
Slayer Of Stanford White won't Con-
sent 10 Plea Of Insanity.

New York. July f9.-The chaotic
conditions surrounding the prepare
ton of defense for Harry X. Thaw.
accused of the murder of Stanford
White. were accentuated. and appar-
entity the breach between the prisoner
and his mother. Mrs. William Thaw.
Of Pittsburg. as 10 the character OF the
defense Is wider than ever.
Following quickly upon a confer
ence OF two hours with Thaw in the
Tombs. after the mother had twice
during the day endeavored TO gain the
boys consent to the unemployment OF
the law firm OF Black. OlcOtt Gruber
& Bonynge. and to consent to q plea
Of insanity. Clifford w. Hartridge
Thaw's personal counsel. obtained
from Justice Blanchard an order
directing Judge Olcott's firm to show
cause Friday why they shouldn't turn
over to Hartridge all the papers In
Thaw's case. MIR. Hartri1ge based his
motion on a petition signed by Thaw
which was placed on record in con
nection with the proceedings.
The rumor that the young man had
al last bowed to his mothers will I'M
doubtedly had its origin in the fact
that Mrs. William Thaw and Mrs.
Harry Thaw, who were in conference
with Thaw at the same time. emerged
from the prison arm in arm. 1t was
the first time they had been seen to
gether. Thaw's wife has all along
supported him in his demand for
trial on the issues Of the case and has
opposed the insanity plea She has
thus been arrayed against the elder
Mrs. Thaw, who seems to feel that the
only hope of saving her son from
death I'm the electric chair Is to de-
pend upon a defense of insanity This
plea would avoid the further publicity
and ignominy of a trial and has been
lnsistontly urged upon the prisoner
who. however, apparently remains OBJ
durate.
