WAYS Of AVOIDING CANCER
New York Board Of Health Has Issued
Warning Which Is Worth Careful
Attention.

The new York board of health has
issued a circular warning the public
of the increasing danger from cancer.
From this it appears that at the pres
ent time one man in every fourteen
and one woman in every eight over
the age of forty die of cancer. Can
Ger claims $4,000 victims every year
in the United States.
The board of health gives some ex-
cellent suggestions as to the best way
to avoid cancer The most important
of these are not to permit any irrita-
tion of the tongue by contact with
broken or decayed teeth, and not to
neglect any swelling of the skin, lips,
tongue, etc.
A wart on a child Is rarely anything
but wart; on an adult it is likely to
be the beginning of cancerous
growth.
In its earliest stages cancer can
generally be cured by a simple op-
Grafton; in it's later stages it is gen
orally incurable, though some forms
of it in some parts of the body have
been eradicated by the radium treat
ment.

Statue for Great Writer.

The proposal to erect statue to
Goldsmith within the precincts of the
Temple, where he lived and worked for
many years and now lies buried, has
been revived with prospect of success
Clement X. Shorter suggests that a
replica of Foley's statue of Goldsmith
in front of Trinity college, Dublin,
should be placed In the Temple.
There are, 1t is declared by artists.
only two good statues in London, those
of Charles l, at Charing Cross and of
James II in the Admiralty gardens
Dublin has Foleys two statues, those
of Burke and Goldsmith. They are
both of unquestionable beauty, and it
is felt that the proposed replica would
not only do something to commem-
crate the memory Of Goldsmith, but
would add statue Of great charm to
London. There is very little doubt
that permission for its erection would
be obtained from the master Of the
temple If suitable site was decided
upcn.-Pall Mall Gazette.

MORE TUNNELS IN PROSPECT
English Engineer Predicts Present
Channel Project Is Only a
Forerunner.

when one tunnel under the Eng
lish channel has been completed, an
other will have to be made very soon
after it, and possibly a third.
This confident prediction was made
by Sir Francis Fox when talking to
members of the house of commons on
the engineering difficulties of the pro-
posed tunnel. All parties were repre-
sented, and it was curious to notice
how the prejudices that prevailed at
one time against the project have died
down.
Sir Francis told OF a recent conver-
sation he had with a high military
authority who was at one time a
strong opponent of the scheme. But" :"
said this authority, now that we have
aeroplanes and airships the problem
is entirely changed, and it has become
a matter Of national necessity that the
tunnel should be made"
Sir Francis Fox rapidly ran over the
details of the scheme, 1t would cost
216,000,O00, half of which is to
be contributed by England and half
by France, A revenue of e1,555,0OO
is estimated, and an expenditure Of
G1,135,000.

HAS A BACKBONE OF STEEL
Broken Vertebrae of Mans Spinal Col.
umn Replaced in Most Un-
usual Operation.

AS the result of one of the most
remarkable surgical operations, Frank
Harrington, aged fifty-nine, of Vestal,
near Binghamton, NJ Y, will hereafter
be known as the man with steel
backbone. A steel tube, jointed to
make 1t as nearly as possible like the
vertebrae of the spinal column, re-
places 20 of the vertebrae, which were
crushed by fall from scaffold.
Several weeks ago Harrington
tripped and fell to the ground, landing
on his back. 1t was found that the
lower and middle portions of the
spinal column had been crushed and
the resulting pressure on the spinal
cord had paralyzed his legs. 1t was
not believed that he would be able to
survive, but he was taken to the
hospital. Drs. C. s. Wilson, w. H.
Wilson and R. o. Crozier finally decid
ed upon an operation in an effort to
save his life.
AS a preliminary the surgeons re-
moved the pieces of the 20 crushed
vertebrae, then took a careful meas.
urement of the portion of the spine
removed Then they ordered steel
tube about three feet long, shaped
like the spine, with flexible joints, to
correspond, extreme care being taken
that every nerve branching from the
spinal cord should be in it's proper
place. Harrington was placed in
plaster cast. He has improved so
much that he is now able to move his
legs in the bed and the surgeons be-
lieve that he will entirely recover and
be able to walk as well as ever.

Robert Treat Paine.

Robert Treat Paine, one of the sign
ers of the American Declaration of In
dependence, died in Boston one hun
dred years ago. Mr.. Paine belonged
to distinguished Massachusetts, fam
lily. He was a delegate to the first
continental congress in 1774 and to
the second provincial congress held in
Cambridge in 1775. In 177S he was a
member of the committee appointed
from Massachusetts to confer with
members from the other colonies on
the regulation of the price of labor,
provisions and manufactures. From
1877 to 1870, covering the period Of
Shay's rebellion, Mr.. Paine was attor-
ney general of Massachusetts. In later
life he served as a judge of the Mas
sachuGetts supreme court.

MARRIED MEN LIVE LONG
Statistical Expert Has Proved That
Husbands Are Better Risks
Than Bachelors.

DR.. Hans Curadze, the German statis-
tical expert. has discovered new
barrier" between men and women.
After studying the statistics of deaths
and marriages he declares: "lf men
want to enjoy long life they should
marry; If women want to grow to a
good old age they should remain spin
sters."
He admits that his conclusions can
be established with greater certainty
when the city of Berlin publishes its
proposed statistical tables of widows,
widowers, divorced persons and per
sons who secured separations at vari-
Gus ages, but he says that tables al
ready available show that married
women die sooner than the unmarried,
whereas married men live longest.
Statistics show that the fatal age for
all males, married and unmarried, is
about forty-four, whereas for the mar
ried men it lies between fifty-fve and
sixty.
The fatal age for all women is about
fifty, ten years more for unmarried
women, and nearly ten years less for
married.
Thus, If Doctor Curadze's statistics
are to be believed, the woman who re-
mains single may expect 20 years
more of life than her married sister.
Marriages dissolved by the death of
the wife last, on an average, ten to fif-
teen years, those dissolved by the hus
bands death usually last 20 to %
years.
According to this the number of
widowers in the average community
is always considerably in excess of the
number of widows. This is only one
of the interesting questions which will
be answered by the elaborate statistics
now being collected in Berlin.

Enormous Damage by Rats.

When the determination of rats was
widely agitated in the United States
in 1909, it was said then by authorities
that the loss in this country from
rats was more than $150,00OIO0O year
ly. No more destructive animal exists.
Besides its thefts of grain, it commits
depredations upon all sorts of mcr-
chandise, devours eggs, kills poultry
and game, robs the family larder, even
gnaws through lead pipes, causing
flooded houses. More than few fires
have been laid to the rat. who carries
matches sometimes to his hole, and
gnaws away insulation from electric
wires. And, worst of all, the rat null

pretty girl, carrying a bouquet, was

of the queen, and with a courtesy

their thanks, for coming to Parkhead

FLATTERINe PROMOTION.
w. A. Sullivan, Metropolitan Super
 tendent, Going to New Haven.

Tn recognition of work that has placed the Norwich district at the top of the 63 New England districts of the Metropolitan insurance company, W. A Sullivan, the superintendent here, has received and accepted a f1attering offer of promotion which will take him to New Haven as superintendent of the Yale district. He begins his new duties there on April 9th. He is to be succeeded here as superintendent by George T. Higgins, of RoSbury, Mass, who has been an assistant superin- tendent.
 Superintendent Sullivan came here on July 1st, 1912, at that time being promoted from an assistant superin- tendency in Boston. The culmination of continued good work for the com pany while here arrived with the re- port up to the end of February when the Norwich district was shown to be first of the 63 New England dis tricts in average paid-for business and in average per man. It has the same standing for March and these two good records won Superintendent Sullivan his present promotion.
 While in this city he has made num- bers of warm friends who will regret to have him leave while they rejoice in his business success. There is sim cere regret also on the part of MT. Suldlivan that he is to leave so many pleasant associations which have been formed in this city.
