DIR. JOSEPH SMITH LECTURES
ON CANCER.

DIR. Joseph Smith gave an address
before the regular meeting of the
mems club OF the Universalist church
on Friday on s'Some of the Aspects
of the Cancer Problem" There was
a very good attendance of the mem
bers of the club, nearly 10 seats be-
ing occupied. After supper DR.. Smith
was introduced by J. w Coates. pres
ident of the club and he talked for an
hour and half and at the close he
was asked many questions which he
answered in language not couched in
medical terms altogether, and easily
understood by layman. 1t would
prove blessed thing if this question
of cancer was worked up to the de-
gree that tuberculosis is. 1t would
result in the saving of many lives, as
DIR. Smith stated, cancer at a certain
stage could be entirely removed.
That it should be, if possible, treated
in its incipiency. The DIR. told of
transferring of the disease in animals
of the same kind; of the workings of
the disease, and displayed many en-
larged drawings all of which was very
interesting to all present. A rising
vote of thanks was rendered DIR.
Smith for his excellent, entertaining
and instructive lecture.

is HOME.

Peter Wehrley is home again after
spending the winter i'm and around
Miami, Fla. He reports that his
partner Ernest Dunn will be home
in about two weeks. He says they
had very successful winter in dis
posing of Florida lands, and that
northern capital is being invested in
real estate in that section. He re-
ports that Geo. Clark of Wausau; who
has been down there all winter, has
purchased two tracts of land and will
probably remain there. We infer
from what Mr.. Wehrley told us that
if Old Ponce de Leon could rise out of
his grave and see that country now
he would be as surprised as was old
Rip Van Wrinkle when the latter
came down out Of the Catskill noun
tains and visited the village Of Falling
Water. Old Ponce, you know, be-
lieved in the DIR. Osler theory and
sought the well springs Of youth in
the land Of the Seminole few years
ago. Pete says it's great country
for the man of small means to make
a good living, raising fruits and gar
den truck. The principal crop used
to be alligators and snakes.
