WO MANS BREAST
FOR CANCER
Any Lump in WOman's Breast Is
Cancer

A new book of the most wonderful
discoveries on the cure of cancer ever
written has been recently published
by Dr. S. r. Chamley, the noted can
Ger specialist, who has for many years
had Offices at 696 McAllister ST., San
Francisco, Cal, and has effected thou
sands of wonderful cures of cancers
that have been pronounced incurable
by other physicians. He successfully
proves his astounding statement that
ANY lump in a woman's breast is
cancer" in this book. He has so much
confidence in his ability to cure can
GER that he offers $1,000 if he fails to
cure any cancer he treats before it
poisons deep glands. He has devoted
almost the whole Of his professional
life-nearly forty years-to this spe-
cialty and has reduced it to a science
that has not been approached by any
other physician. He performs no
operations with the knife and his
treatments are painless.
The book and his cures are creating
a sensation among medical men, who
recommend him as being strictly re-
liable. The reader may save a life
by sending this to some one with
cancer.

SHIPPERS LOSE THROUGH
UNDEVELOPED STREAMS
Conservation Commission Esti-
mates $250,0a0,000 Could
Be Saved Each Year

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.--In the course
OF the discussions before the water sec
tion of the conservation commission to-
day ii was shown that an enormous
saving could be made in freight ex-
penditures each year If the navigable
streams were properly developed.
During 1905 the railroads carried
217. .000. 100000 ton miles of freight, at
an average cost of II cents. If one
fifth Of the freight shipped each year
were transported by water it would re-
suit in a saving to the producer and
shipper of about $3.50, 1000, 900.
The theoretical strength of the water
power of the country was estimated at
about 230,00O,000 horsepower, as against
5,230,0 600 horsepower now in practical
use.
