PROOF
of the danger of
DELAY
in treating
CANCER

Last week young married lady 0
Dallas was buried, leaving behind he
a husband and many young children
She had died from cancer.
A year ago last May her husban,
brought her to DR.. Toel's office to b
examined.
1t took him however nearly twent,
minutes to persuade her to submit t.
an examination.
Her general health at that time wa
good, but DR.. Toel found in her breas
cancerous growth two inches Ions
and one inch wide, while in the arm
pit he found small enlargement OF
gland which however did not YET
show the cancerous hardness.
He told her that the growth in the
breast was undoubtedly cancer, and
advised her to begin electrical treat
ment at once and if the enlarged gland
did not begin to diminish in size in q
short time, to submit to one of his
bloodless electrical operations and
have both the breast and the gland re-
moved.
However, he never heard from her
again, though from time to time, four
times in all. he wrote her calling her
attention to the danger she was run
ming in not having the cancer removed
without delay.
At the time her husband brought
her to his Office he had informed her
that the prospect for cure was fair,
as the swelling in the gland seemed
to be simply an infammatory one
which usually precedes the cancerous
infection from the cancer in the
breast
Why she never came back to him to
have the cancer removed. DR.. Toel
does not know, he only knows the fact
that she died from the cancer lately.
Cases Of cancer should be brought
to the specialist as soon as they are
The advice that some
physicians give; to leave cancer
alone as it is incurable, is the worst
advice that can be given the patient.
Cancer is always local in the be-
As long as it is local it is
durable. If the patient waits until
he Emphatic glands become affected,
hen his chances for a cure are a
great deal less, but the present ad-
'ance in electrical treatment will cure
even many of these eases.
When metastases from cancer on
he outside of body appear in in
ernal organs the prognosis of course
'ecomes very bad, though even such
ases have been cured by Y rays.
When however, the patient waits
lntil his entire vitality is gone, he
an not expect anything even from
lectricity.
Do not neglect a lump in your
reast, but go to a specialist.
Do not neglect an unnatural flow of
lood from your womb, but go to a
pecialist.
Do not neglect a sore place on
our lip, but go to a specialist.
Do not neglect any growing lump
r eating sore anywhere on your body
ut go to a specialist.
With "Specialist" is meant, not
ne so-called "Cancer Doctor who
l many cases is not even a licensed
hysicfan, but knows nothing but to
ut an eating plaster on a cancer,
lusing unbearable pain and driving
le cancer germs and cells into the
emphatic glands, but the educated
lrgeon who has made a life study
{ the application of the different
ectrical currents in cases of cancer.
What is said here in regard to can
RS refers also to great extent to
her forms of tumors. Do not wait
ltil they become incurable, but go
specialist as soon as you discover
tumOr on or in your body.
