Of what it was. And then suddenly
1t came to her. Peggy had said moth
ing about milking. AS far as mother
could see. there was nothing in tennis
or autoing that would awaken in Peggy
the iatent-oh. very latent!housewife-
ly instincts.
Peggy had motored and romped the
courts a great deal at home, but Meth
er had enhanced in any way her enjoy
ment OF housework. The part about
having dinner at the cunning little
country hotels was bit more cheering.
Some slight parity with culinary activi-
ties seemed to suggest itself here.
Peggy's interest in the cunning hostel
cries may have been aroused by the
tidiness of the landlady and her deft-
ness at serving the meals.
Mother put the letter aside and
planned an answer to Peggy wherein
she would recommend that her darl-
ing daughter visit few cunning coun-

Besides cases resulting from experiment., there are natural ex- produced by the irritation of the ha-r- ness at the base of the horn; and the cancer known as -tkangri-b m India. caused by the Iong-continued rubbing of the kangr basket. which is worn against the skin under the cloth ing. The production of cancer by the irritation of x-rays, and the influence pected.
 Certain occupations are also found to be productive of cancer. Among workers in tar, petroleum. ani1ine, and soot, this tendency is so we'll recog- ntzed in England, that such trades have been scheduled as coming under the Workmen's Compensation Act Sweeps s-cancer is so common as to form a class by itself, but all are con- sidered to result from some form of I ritaHo Hon-cheTnical mechanical, act mic. or bacterial.
 Chrenic irritation of any kind is therefore to be avoided or obviated wherever possible. On the surface of the skin it is especially to be avoided near warts or moles, which. as is well
 known.u have 9 natural tendency to degenerate into malignant growth.
 But by all adds the most important result of scientific investigation is the discovery that cancer is local in it's beginning. The contrary notion, that the disease is. constitutional in it's orfg1n-that it is the blood or other body duid-is traced by pr. Bain-
 bridge to very early tirness and to the widespread belief in this theory which 1 still prevails is attributable much of the hopelessness with which cancer Is still regarded. But today we have ample proof, not only that cancer be- gins in he tindest pin-potnt, but that if this beginning is cut out before dis seTnlnation has occurred by way of the body-f1uids, it may be cured. More than this, nothing but cutting 1t out early enough has, as yet, ever insured such a. result.
 Owing to the great variety of pes stble symptoms, the difficulty of dtag- nosis of internal cancer is admittedly very great. Dr. Bainbsidge therefore, makes a very strong plea. for the high est ethical standards of conduct on the part of the medical profession; that members Of 1t should employ every possible means of informing themselves on the subject and where that is not possible or when left in doubt, to some specialist or institution where expert advice may be had be | fore it is too late

Lady Paget wife of the English Am bassador to Vienna, first attracted MT. Stea5d's attention to the remedy. At once, and with characteristic en- thusiasrn, that zeaIous champion of the visionary end fantastic took it up and literally forced a test of this mar vellous cure from the profession.
 The usual result followed. Not only were there no cures, but. under chem ical analysis the stvitaI' force of the universe showed no other reaction than that of distilled water. There were also the usual charges of unfair conditions made by the advocates of the remedy to cover up their failure f ct that failure was so absolute and conclusive that the report of the com Inittee having the test in charge
 might have been expected to end the pretentfons of the Mattel Electrici- ties" Not at all!

 Y Among those advocating some +l,eorv Of food as the cause of the dis ease, the supposed Japanese immunity was long attributed to the national diet Of rice and fish; as was also the reputed freedom of the Jews from cancer to their abstention from pork But the Jews are no more immune than the Japs, Dr. BainbrIdge cites definite cases, and points to the fact that tf1e cancer ward of a London hospital actually has a Kosl1er-l1itch- en for the benefit of it's Jewish pa tients.
 The terse remark quoted by pr. Bainbr1dge from pr. Bashford. with regard to cancer in mice and cows, appears to be apphcaDle to many phases of the cancer problem today, and to pretty much the whole world. Ten years ago cancer was unknown in the mouse, and only the expert few knew of 1t in the COW; whereas to- day there are thousands of cases on record of both As Dr. BasF1ford puts 1.-the difference is merely owing to the disease having been looked for and found.' ?
 The Question of Diet.
 A similar narshaling of facts is brougF to bear by Dr. Bainbridge up on the vexed question of diet as pro- ductive of cancer. Hardly an article of food, = he writes, .*has escaped con demnation. Salt, tomatoes, coffee. meat, especially chilled or frozen meat, pork, and alcohol, all come un- der the ban. But the possible inf1u- ence of diet is shown not to be very great by the liability to cancer of the vegetarian castes of India and of the rice and fish eating Japanese Cows never eat meat, and although both tame and wild mice are occasionally cannibalistfc in their habits, they do not come in contact with pork, toma~ or other herbiverious animals eat vegetable food cooked Yet all these people and animals are now known to have cancer
