AVOID HARSH DRUGS.
Many Cathartics Tend to Cause
Injury to the Bowels.

If you are subject to constipa-

drugs and cathartics. They only
give temporary relief and their
reaction is harmful and some
times more annoying than con-

a cure and their tendency is to

Strong Hope That Cure for
Cancer Has Been Found.
Experiments by New York State
Cancer Laboratory Expert
Show Wonderful Advance In Treat.
ment Of that Disease.

Albany. Feb. ia strong hope of
curing cancer or greatly ameliorating
the condition of cancer patients by
means of incubation, is held out In
the report of Harvey R. Gaylord. di-
rector of the cancer laboratory of the
State Department of Health at Buffalo,
to be submitted to the Legislature to-
morrow. This hope is based on extend
ed experiments during the past year
in the incubation or vaccination Of
various animals, mainly rats with the
cancer virus.
1T appears" says the report that
where the resistance of the animal is
not sufficiently awakened by one in
oculation OF the tumor this resistance
can be heightened by repeated doses
and, in considerable proportion Of
cases, immunity can be raised to
point which will bring about cure.
1t is needless to point out that this
process of repeated vaccination, which
has cured in the proportion of % to
40 in rats, might well be applied to
those cases of late cancer in human
beings in which surgery has nothing to
offer and the outlook is hopeless. Such
experiments can, of course, be under
taken where patients are under the
direct eye and control of the expert
menter."
1t was found in treating animals,
that where only one incubation was
made the animal usually died, whereas
when number of successful inocula-
items were made the resulting tumors
were smaller and after reaching a GER
tain size spontaneous recovery would
set in and in the majority of cases the
tumors would disappear. leaving the
animal immune. The report says that
the time has come to begin expert
mentation with human beings and to
do so it is necessary that a number
Of voluntary patients should be main
tanned at state expense for this pur-
pose. Funds sufficient to maintain at
least 10 patients are asked.
Other Investigations of great mo-
ment conducted by the laboratory dur
ing last year have had to do with can
GER in many forms of fish and the pos
sibility of infection of human beings.
Il has been found that cancer Of the
typhoid in particular is Of very fire.

The Subjects Picked Out
For Early Consideration.
Ship Subsidy Bill Will Be Hot|y
Opposed in House,
Ba!l'nger Pinchot Inquiry Hearings
Will Be Resumed Today.

Washington, FEB 19--The fact tht
}t"ident TAFT in mis- New YORK speech
licked out for emphasis such subj, cts
a. postal savings banks, interstate
commerce legislation, anti injunction
statehood and conservation of natural
resources seems to mark these subjects
for early consideration by Congress.
Especially is this true because meas
ures to carry out these party pledges
| have reached advanced stages before
the appropriate committees.
1t is remarked also that the charac-
ter Of Mr.. Taft's illusions to the fed
eral incorporation bill would hardly
justify that measure being placed in
the first rank of administration meas
ures, while the fact that ship subsidy
was ignored altogether makes it ques-
tionahle whether the Executive will
bring pressure to bear to promote it.
Ship subsidy legislation seems al
most certain to pass the Senate, but
the Democrats in the House are pre-
pairing to line against the bill, and
| they believe that with some Republi-
can assistance they will be able to de-
feat it. 1t is not improbable that the
Senate would then resort to making the
measure a rider upon the postoffice APP
preparation bill, in which event q Sec
ond contest would be precipitated in
the House.
The question of whether the House
committee on ways and means will I'M
dertake the investigation of the high
cost Of living in view of the action OF
the Senate, is still undetermined.
There is no general demand for rival
inquiry and the indications are that the
House will be willing to leave the
whole subject to the Senate, as the
latter's inquiry is intended to consti-
tute defence Of Republican principles
and is designed for use in the coming
congressional elections.
The Ballinger- Pinchot investigation
is scheduled for resumption tomorrow.
There will be important hearings also
at both ends of the Capitol on the ad-

Terrib|e Accident TO Ethel
Thompson, Brunswick
Pei Dog Bites Lip and Cheek,
Requiring Thirteen Stitches.
Doctor Takes z IL Hours to Make
45.Minute Trip In Snow.

brunswick. Ne, Feb. 13.-(SpeciaD.
Miss Ethel Thompson, the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Nathan T. c. Thomp-
son of Mere Point, was terribly bitten
by her pet dog last night. Miss
THOMPSON was about to retire, shortly
before II o'clock and according to her
custom kissed the dog good night. The
dog was asleep on the couch at the
time and when she touched him he
jumped and snapped at her, fastening
his teeth in her lower lip.
DR.. G. NJ. Elliott of Brunswick was
summoned by telephone and had one
of the worst drives in his experience
before he reached the lonely farmhouse
seven miles away. The last four miles
of the road had not been travelled
during the day and DR.. Elliott was
obliged to break his own road, at times
having to get out OF his sleigh and
tramp path for the horse He was
little over two hours and half in
travelling the distance which is usual
" covered in about As minutes.
DR.. Elliott found Miss Thompson's
lower lip terribly lacerated both in
side and out. the lip hanging by only
a thread Of skin. He was obliged to
take 10 stitches in the lip and three
others in her left cheek where the
dogs teeth had also left their mark.
Owing to the terrible travelling DR..
Elliott was unable to return home dur
ing the night and did not get back to
the village until the middle of the
forenoon
Mr.. Thompson and his family have
been very unfortunate during the last
few years. Several years ago the
daughter had a severe attack OF pneu-
monia. Then Mrs. Thompson broke
both wrists Mr. Thompson suffered
partial shock and after recovering
badly injured his leg. combining him to
the house for weeks.

Returns to Capital, After
Short Trip to New York.
Not al All Satisfied With Con-
ditions in That State.
Gives Woman Artist Sitting for
Sketch While in City.

New York, Feb. 13.-President Taft
made an easy Sunday of it in New
York. He posed leisurely for a sketch
artist. Lois A. Swan, while going
through his mail this morning, saw
only two callers during the day and
left for Washington on his private car.
leaving Jersey City over the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad at 800 +. NJ The
young artist in question is a protege
of Otto r. Barnard president Of the
New York Trust Co, and defeated can
didate for mayor during the late NUM-
cipal contest. The artist, Mr.. Ban
nard. and Lloyd c. Griscom. president
of the New York Republican county
committee. were the only persons be-
sides relatives whom the President
saw during the day.
After the banquet of the Republican
Club last night at which the President
made a speech on Republican policies
he returned to the home of his broth
er. Henry w. Taft, and did not get up
until nearly 10 o'clock today. A number
of churches had extended special in
vitations to Mr.. Taft to attend services
today, but he declined, explaining in
each instance that the activities of
Yesterday necessitated seclusion and
rest.
Mr.. Barnard arrived at the Taft
residence a few minutes before II
o'clock and a moment after he had
entered the house he came out with
Mrs Taft on his arm. The President
followed and the three. accompanied
by secret service agents, were driven
in automobiles to Mr.. Bannard's home.
While Mrs. Taft remained in the car
Mr.. Barnard took the President into
the house, introduced him to the
young artist and the President con-
scented to sit for sketch. Mr. Ban
nard left them and accompanied Mrs.
Taft on an automobile ride up Fifth
avenue.
Mr.. Barnard and Mrs. Taft returned
to the Barnard home in about an hour,
picked I'D the President and all went
to Henry w. Tafts home, where din
ner was served. Afterward. there was
music by members of the Taft family
and at 8 o'clock the secret service men
called with two automobiles and the
President and Mrs. Taft were taken to
the train.
At the conference yesterday in the
home Of Mr.. Griscom, Mr.. Barnard.
Gov. Hughes and Mr.. Griscom were
of one mind in insisting that the Re-
publican party in this state should be
purged and that AlldsConger charges
at Albany be sifted to the bottom
While President Taft did not COM
nit himself at the conference, he is
