often serves only to hasten the end.
Recent investigation into the effects.

gained nutrition, resulting chiefly
from complex diet n ~overeating,
have led me to the conclusion
that cancer is due to abnormal cell
proiiferation resulting from those
causes and that, consequently. il
can be cured by restoring normal
nutrition-by a course of rigid diet

In harmony Herewith, the mental
state now being understood to have a
very important bearing upon physical
conditions. Though this natural cure
has the virtue of simplicity and entire
freedom from risk, IL Is no less worthy
