BY GARRETT P. SERVISS.

Tn the August number Of THE
COSMOPOLITAN MAGAZINE
there is an article on The
Conquest of Cancer" which is of
absorbing interest. for the simple
reason that it tells, In popular Ian
guage the exact truth on a subject
about which there has been SO
much sensational eXaggeration that
the public mind has been perturbed
without being informed upon it.
The sad truth is that, at the
present time, the only sure cure
for cancer isShe surgeons knife
and that is sure in only certain
special cases But doctors have
learned to recognize cancer in its
earliest stages, when it often IS
DURABLE, and that is a vast gain
in itself.
Moreover, experimental inyesti-
cations are now on foot which give
at least the hope that a specific
cure may be found for all forms Of
cancer Some of the lower animals
are the necessary victims of such
experiments. and some people, who
apparently love dogs more than
they love men and women, make
a great cutlery over that fact, Such
people, whose sentimentalism has
gone astray, may be disregarded
when the object i'm view is an al
most immeasurable blessing to hu-

Murder Not Always
Result of Wild Impulse.

1t is a shock to many people to
know there are professional assas-
sins in~our land.
Many good people had believed
that murder was always, in these
days, the result of some wild inn
pulse-of drunkenness, or jealousy
of anger of protection or in
sanity.
1t seems almost incredible that
men who are not moved by any of
these emotions are to be found
banded together ready to kill any
one for a stated sum of money
and a paltry sum comparatively
Now that such men have been
found and are held by the law for
trial, it would help the students of
eugenics to learn Something Of the
prenatal and early childhood con-
ditions from which those men came.
1t would be worth while to appoint
committee to go about this search
for the desired information with as
great care as the detectives went
about the search for the criminals
There should be, indeed, such a
committee. whose work is to look
up the pedigree for at least two
generations of every man and Wom-
an who becomes a criminal
Especially should the prenatal
conditions be learned when there is
any possibility of obtaining such
data

rUST at this particular juncLure
several unfortunate men are
y being held prisoners for the de
Iiberate planning of the murder of
a fellow being in New York.
Other men implicated will no
doubt be added to the list before
this article appears.
The meanest and most despica-
Bile motive for crime in life is at
the bottom of this dreadful and APP
palling act-greed for gain.
Certain men desired to break the
laws of the land,
Certain other men were bought
who violated their oaths to pro
tect those laws.
The law breakers were caught,
and they told the tale of buying
the silent cooperation of the law
protectors.
Then these law protectors delib-
erately employed professional as
sassins to murder the man who be-
trayed their act

is that. on the average, out of every
fifteen men and eight women past
IS years of age one surely possesses
the seeds of cancer, which win
eventually develop. 1t is as if in
the room there were a fly having
an unerring sense enabling it to
detect the presence Of the undts-
closed cancer. The person on whom
that fly alighted would be the vic
tim designed by fate. All the
others might be perfectly safe be-
cause they did not bear the fatal
mark But, according to the sta
tistics there would I'm the long
average surely be ONE in every

1t IS also the naggiug of her de-

time that they are old enough to

what would be the ultimate conse-
uuenCes2 The last of the major
diseases> that shorten human life
and cause endless suffering would
have been conquered. This does
not mean that they would imme-
diately disappear, but there would
be good reason to hope that they
might all be eventually eliminated,
so that. after time. death would
only occur either as a result of
accident or murder or of simple old
age. Men would live longer and
their lives would be relatively free
from suffering.
What 1t Would Mean.
But would they be content even
with that condition? Not in the
least. The next effort would be still
further to prolong life. Then the
question would be seriously debat-
ed-as it has indeed already been
debated whether death itself
might not be banished. 1t is not
in the nature of man to be content,
and his Creator did not intend that
he should be content. His wonder
full powers were given to him in or
der that he might always seek to
better his condition. He was not
placed in the position of a Sisiphus,
doomed to pass all his time in
pushing a stone up HILL only to see
it inevitably roll down again. He
DOES GAIN something every day.
His progress is slow, but yet GER
tain. He was put into a world full
of enemies and given the means of
combating those enemies. Many
of them he has already conquered.
but many yet defy him. When he
has mastered all of his diseases a
new field for the exercise of his
genius will open before him. If it
did not he would WISH TO DIE,
and might welcome back the dis
eases as friends, for there is no
happiness for human nature except
in marching forward and accom-
pHshing something.
