Treatment was as successful In the
case of man fifty-nine years old.
He was told after diagnosis at Johns
Hopkins hospital, Baltimore. that he
was suffering from cancer or the
tongue. Radtum was applied in April
and June, 1915, but the patient told
DIR. Walker that he continued to grow
worse. In July, 1915, treatment with
selenium was begun and continued Tor
several months, at the end of which
he returned to his home in Canada
with the ulcerations healed. Last July
he wrote DR.. Walker that there had
been no sign of recurrence, and he was
attending to business regularly.
A woman, forty years old, was op-
Grated on for cancer at st. Luke's
hospital in 1912. A microscopic exam
inatiOn confirmed the diagnosis. The
trouble returned in 1913 and the Sc
lenium treatment was administered
for year. Last August the patient
said she felt better than she had for
many years and was suffering no pain
whatsoever. She was still gaining
weight, though the treatment had been
discontinued almost two years before.
One of the most remarkable cases
is that of the manager of a Stock Ex-
change house, who in July, 1914. when
he was sixty-three, consulted two spe-
cialists and was told, following an "
ray examination, that he had cancer
and could not live only Il short time.
He then weighed about 12O pounds.
Treatment with selenium was begun
and continued for year, at the end Of
which he weighed 1877 pounds and was
attending to business. He has since
continued well.

Economical Fruit Jelly.

Save all the rinds and pulp of
lemons and oranges left from lemon
ade or fruit punch. Put them into a
saucepan and cover with boiling wa
ter. Boil ten minutes, strain half the
liquid and add sugar to taste-a small
cupful of sugar to one dozen lemon
skins gives a tart, refreshing jelly.
Lastly stir in a half package Of gela-
tin that has been dissolved in a little
cold water. Pour into a mold and
cool. One dozen lemon or orange rinds
should make quart of jelly, and it is
better flavor and more fruity. than
when made with the juice alone.

The gardener gave the information.
"Say. Mary" the man called to his
wife, Il want you to remember the
name of these beans for me-"
"Why don't you remember them
yourself?"
Il thought it would be such an easy
matter for you to remember the name
because all you would have to do is
to think of yourself"

1t is declared by medical authorities
one of the greatest difficulties In the
way of determining the actual value
of proposed cancer treatments, even
where several hundred cases are IN
der observation, is the question of dag
nOsis. This can seldom be made with
absolute certainty unless the cancer
Gus growth can be seen. In many
cases this is brought about only by
operations.
In many of DIR. Walkers most sue
ceSSful cases no question of doubtful
diagnosis can be raised. One patient
was an Italian laborer, twenty-one
years old. operated on at the Massa-
chusetts General hospital, in Boston.
He was discharged from the hospital
after q microscopical examination had
resulted in diagnosis of cancer of
the stomach. The hospital chart
showed the operation had relieved"
him.
The patient came under DIR. Walk
er's care eighteen months later with all
the signs of recurrent cancer. He was
treated with selenium and rigid diet
enforced. This was continued for a
year, with intervals of cessation from
all medication, and was stopped last

Arms Out Of Proportion.
villa is five feet, ten inches In height.
He is heavy-limbed and thick-chested.
His arms are unusually long. They
are out of proportion to the rest Of his
body and reach nearly to his knees.
His hands, oddly enough, are as soft as
wOman's. When he shakes hands,
his grasp is flabby. He weighs about
$50 pounds.
His head and neck recall pictures Of
Roman gladiatOrs. His neck Is thick
as a mans thigh and very short. His
head is large, little too large for the
rest of his body. 1t is crowned by
black, curly hair, which he rarely
brushes. A bald spot is beginning to
appear at the top. The forehead is the
one redeeming feature of his countenr
ance; it is high and well-formed.
His skin is light brown but mottled
with dark patches, evidently the re-
suit of many years spent In the open.
His ears are large and ugly. His nose
is wide-nOstriled but small. His cheeks
are fat.
The mouth reveals all the savage
cruelty and cunning of the man. The
short upper-lip does not cOnceGA a
set of scraggly, dark-stained teeth. The
/ shortness of this lip, which rarely
touches the lower makes it appear as
though Villa were always grinning
The thickness of both lips gives him a
beastial, sensual expression that is
heightened by the slow, almost ponder
Gus, manner in which he moves about.
A long, stern chin and lower Jaw
that protrudes disclose the inherent
cruelty in him.
! Talks Like a Child.
A strange contrast to the rest Of
his physical makeup is Villas voice.
1t Is high-pitched and weak, except
when he shouts orders. Most of the
time, though, 1t is a peculiar blend Of
whine and drawl. To hear it and
not see the speaker, one would think
n ten-year-old child was speaking.
His strength is by-wOrd among his
fellows. He has been known to pick up
and set on its feet a small mule that
had slipped and fallen while dragging
a caisson through miry roads.
Native refugees arriving at this
camp from the South say he is heavier
now than he ever was before. He wears
a beard several inches long and limps
from the wound he received at Guer-

uses crutch, which is strapped to the
side Of his saddle when he mounts

First Clue to Treatment.

In a report published in THE Medi-
cal Record" in 1912 eminent surgeons
stated the remedy for cancer might
we'll be a chemical substance.
ut has long been the opinion of
thoughtful students of the subject"
says the report, that local treatments
for cancer, however, necessary as
makeshifts, have been based on mis-
conception. 1t is quite possible, for
example, that X-rays or the fulgura-
ton treatment may benefit super
fetal cancer at its point of origin, but
the danger of such grOwths lies largely
in their spread to distant and inaccesi-
is impossible.
1--WE believe 1t, therefore, automatic
that q scientific remedy for cancer
shall be one soluble in the blood,
transmissible by the blood and lymph
currents to all parts of the body, and
possessed of selective affinity for the
cells of the tumOr to be destroyed.
"Such a remedy may quite conceiv-
ably be q chemical substance existing
in the outside world, and by happy ac-
cident discovered to have the desired
properties"
DR.. Francis Carter Wood, director of
the CrOcker Cancer Research Fund,
speaking on the laboratory study of
the causes of the disease at a meet
ing of the New York Academy of
Medicine last May. said it had been
established, almost beyond question:
that cancer was not germ disease
nor in any way allied to germ dis
eases.

New York.-Marked success in the
treatment of cancer by selenium has
been announced in medical publica-
tions by DIR. Charles II. Walker, of 327
West Eighty-siXth street, this city. Sc
lenium is powerful chemical which,
taken internally, in capsules, has re-
lieved suffering in many cases and in
others has effected an apparent cure.
DR.. Walker, however, does not say
he has found cure, but he firmly be-
lieves the treatment is worthy of a
thorough trial.
Il have treated in the last five years
more than two hundred cases." DR..
Walker said to New York Tribune
reporter. "In many of them dag
nosis had shown beyond all question
the patient was cancer victim, and
in few was there much ground for
doubt. l can safely say in no case
was there total failure in favorable
results from the use Of selenium.
Believes Cure Was Made.
"Some of the patients were near
death when l first saw them, and it
was possible to do nothing but relieve
a little of their pain. In other cases,
said by specialists to be beyond help,
1 believe there has been a permanent
cure. If selenium will only relieve
pain 1t is worth using, and If it will
cure, the treatment should be thor
oughly Investigated"
SulfO-selene, combination of sui
phur and selenium, the compound DIR.
Walker uses, was worked out in CO
operation with DIR. Frederick Klein, a
biological chemist, of this city.
In 1911 DR.. Walker came to the con-
clusion, upheld by eminent authorities
on cancer, the disease was not due to
a germ, but to a certain peculiar con-
dition in the body, which might be cor
rected by treatment with chemicals.
Experiments with selenium were be-
gun and have been continued the last
five years.
