People Against All "QuaCk"
Remedies for Disease.

The state board Of health to-day is
sued 3 bulletin based on a somewhat
extensive research Of the cause and cure
Of cancer, but primarily to indorse the
action Of other boards Of health in de
claring the surgeons knife the only cure
FOR the dread disease and to warn the
people Of the state against "quack''
remedies.
THE only remedy for cancer or any
tumor Of the malignant sort is excis-
ion. Somewhere there exists possibly
specific for tumors, but science has
not yet discovered it. and until it does,
the only satisfactory remedy IS the
knife, applied I'm the earliest stages, "
reads the bulletin
"Quack remedies, advertised specifics.
are worse than useless" declares the
bulletin, for they allow time for the
continued development Of the disease.
whereas eXcision in the earliest stages
might mean a cure"
The board also declares cancer is
not caused by bacteria. but a running
riot Of the tissues. and the cells of the
cancer or the small component parts
are exactly the same as the form and
structure of the normal and healthy It's
sue surrounding them. The dangerous
tumors, or cancers. come usually after
middle life, after person is aged 40
years.
"Tumors are divided into two great
| classes" says the bulletin. THE cpl
plastic and the mesobastic. The cpl
Elastic occur on the outer tissues of the
body and in the malignant form are the
most dangerous type A great care
must be exercised by the surgeon that

ed, be removed also, to prevent a sec
ond growth
The importance can not be too
strongly stressed OF the prompt removal

SWAT THE FLY
OLD; 'STARVE IT
LATEST SLOGAN
Authorities Begin CrusadeAgains
Restaurant Men Who Fail to
Use Covers on Food,

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Starve the
fly rather than swat him is the new
policy of the Board of Health toward
the perfidious insect.
That accounts for the prosecutions
and warnings which have been hand
ed out in the last few days to all
restaurant keepers who expose food
on their counters so that both flies
and paying customers may help them
selves.
The sanitary code was so amended
last February as to read that: mo
food except fruits and vegetables that
are peeled, pared or cooked before
eaten shall be kept sold or offered for
sale or be displayed, and transported
unless protected from dirt, dust, flies
or other contamination. The term
food as herein used shall include
every article of food and every bev-
erage used by man and all confec-
tionery."
In making their rodnds the in
spectors were pleased to find that as
a general thing the kitchens and the
counters of the cheap restaurants
were well Kept and the standard of
cleanliness was high
There were mar y summonses issued
just lHe same. SeFeTal OF tue res
taurants were in the Wall street dis
trict, where sandwiches are exposed
on tables.
Proprietors were fined for the Of
Tense, and from now on they are 10

glass slides.
That the house fly in going from

his padlike feet and leaves it on the
bread, biscuit or other food on which
he chances to tread has been demon
strated.
After this there win be wire covers
and bell glasses for all supplies, and
If the customer supposed to serve
himself does not care to lift the lid

two home cooked meals i'll two
months-but the hum of an aeroplane
motor makes me blind to the charms
of domesticlty"
Miss Scott began flying and learned
the art at Mineola. One day on the
field she asked permission to follow
a man into the air This was after
she had been studying for some time
1t was granted, and away she went.
For three minutes Of the ten during
which she drove an aeroplane twelve
miles she was lost to view. Then, to
the relief of every one, she emerged
from the fog. After that she flew
regularly.
In 1912 Miss Scott was in the air
above Squantum Field, when Miss
Harriet Quimby and her passenger,
w A. p willard, passed her in a
monoplane. A few moments later
Willard shot out Of the plane to his
death, and Miss Qumby, not balanc-
ing the machine with the rudder soon
enough, was shot to earth, too, and
killed. The next day Miss Scott took
pains to fly above the spot where they
met their death.

a woman could fly on nerve, Just as
a man does"

TRACE SOUGHT
Of VANISHING
JUDGE AND KIN
Twenty Years Ago Jurist 0isap-
peared - Later His Family
Dropped From Sight.

KINGSTON, MO, Nov. S.-After
more than a score of years of gossip,
theorizing and discussion, officials of
Caldwell County Missouri, will take
steps to ascertain what has become
of the Mcmillan family-"the disap-
pearing family"-that some DISPOSE
ton may be made of town and farm
property uncared for rents uncollect-
ed and taxes unpaid.
James Mcmillan. serving his third
term as Probate Judge, left the court
house twenty years ago; he paused
on the steps a moment to shake
hands with Thomas Laidlaw, his best
friend.
Il think I'll go back to the old home
in scotland SOON" laughngly de-
clared Judge Mcmillan
No Debts; No Enemies.
Mcmillan was never seen again.
Mcmillan was then between so and
So. He had lived in the country u
years, IS of which had been spent as
a public official. He had a lucrative
farm, and had money in safety de-
post vault at local bank. He had
no debts and no enemies.
Mrs. Mcmillan and their five chill
dren remained quietly on the farm.
The property was in the wife's name,
and in the safety deposit box was
found several thousand dollars Mrs
Mcmillan received no word from her
husband. Messages sent to the dis
trict in Scotland from which McMil-
Ian and his wife had originally come
brought back the answer that the
Judge had not been there that no
word had beep received from him
Three years after their fathers
disa ppearance James and George, two
of his sons, came to town one day;
then, like their father, disappeared
No word was ever received from
either them or theif father. The
mother and three girls still lived on
the farm.
Goods Are Sold for Cash.
Two years after the boys dropped
from sight bills were distributed an
nouncing a sale of the Mcmillan
goods. The terms were cash only
The sale was held, and the next day
mother and daughters left town.
Not a clew to what has become of
the family ever has been received
here. Phe cottages in town are al
ways occupied. Tenants move in AMI
stay until they get ready to leave
town. They pay no rent, have no
landlord to contend With. When it
becomes known that tenant is to
leave, there Is rush to succeed him
Adeparting tenant, LOADING his goods
at the. front door, sees another un-
loading other goods at the back door.
Years after the Mcmillan family
left a negro preacher and his family
took up their abode in the deserted
farmhouse. They left in terror two
days later. Ghosts were there they
asserted Three other families moved
in at various times and left just 0s
abruptly. The house is tenantless
now, stunned by all.
