CANCER IS ON THE INCREASE.
Theory That 0readsvl Disease May os
Caused BY Excessive Eating
of Meat.

One Of the latest theories pro-
pounded in regard to the rapid and
most alarming increase In the deaths
from cancer II that II may be caused
b. excessive meat eating and By eat
ing bad meat
Statistics show In the annual re-
port to the state health department
that the average death rate from can
Ger has increased In the last Is years
a little over q per cent.
The. Chicago board OF health some
time ago discovered that the percent.
age OF deaths among immigrants from
cancer was far in excess Of the death
rate from the same disease In the
countries they had left. The physician
who undertook to investigate and dis
cover the causes for this found the
mortality records showed that deaths
from cancer among immigrantS from
Oriental countries and native Amert-
cans were much less In proportion to
numbers than among Germans and i'm
migrants from Southeastern Europe.
On studying their diet he found the
Orientals did not eat meat and the
Americans Comparatively little. while
the people of other nationalities ate
flesh in large quantities.
Another theory il that cancer comes
larKely from indigestion and conse-
quent poisoning Of the system through
lack Of proper mastication Of ones
food, and also through overeating. %
that where people eat largely Of meat
and are In the habit Of "bolting" their
food cancer is more than likely to in
crease
TO eat slowly does not necessarily
imply masticating properly. for one
can dilly-dally and not chew. In any
event. the careful chewing Of food Is
absolutely ~ccessary to good health
Slow chewing prevents over feeding
and the consequent choking up OF the
system and results In . clearer brain
and q more active and beautiful body.
.. Every one Knows that too much
fuel chokes an engine. and 30 In ike
fashion too much food chokes the
body.
At its best, cancer n . frightful dis
ease. painful and disgusting. and
every care should be taken BY all to
avoid II. II prevention can do II.

RARE OLD VIOLIN
ESCAPES THIEVES
Burglars Secure JeWeIry and
Musical instruments at So
Main Street.

Some time during Monday night burg
lars entered the stores of J. s. Jensen,
jeweer, and the Chamberlain Music COM
pany. SO Main street, and secured jew
elry and musical instruments to the value
of several hundred dollars The intrinsic
worth of the stolen jewelTy amounts at
least 800, but as a considerable guam
uty of the stolen goods consisted OF ar
ticles left for repair. and which were
valued for personal reasons. the loss Is
of greater amount to the owners than
the actual money value. The music store 5
loss amounts to more than $50.
The entrance to the stores was effected
through a back window, reached by
climbing on a low shed The window
was smashed in, and the evidence showed
that when the burglars dropped inside
one of them had fallen into one of the
showcases. Once inside. they had evil
IDENTIFY lighted match and in throwing
il to the floor had set fire to one of the
cloth coverings for the showcase. The
burglars stopped to put out the fire.
The thieves secured twenty-fOur rings,
ana several pieces of jewelry and trink-
cts that had been left in the store for
repair, and a number of musical instru-
ments. including a valuable mandolin.
BY good fortune a genuine Batiste ViO-
lin, the property of DR.. J. NJ. Bart, and
which had been in the store on exhi-
bition for some time, had been removed
on the previous day by its owner. The
violin is valued at $1,000 and it is thought
that a desire to get this instrument was
one Of the motives in the burglary
So far no clue has been obtained to the
burglars. but the police have sent out a
description of the stolen goods.
