classed with the ''gOOd writer's"
by critics of literature is beyond
my power to assert. l do know,
however, that his writings are
among the most widely read of the
day. His Adventures of Sher-

sensation. II the authors of

were to be eliminated from the
ranks of good writer's it goes
without saying that Mr.. Doyle's

CANCERS BEING CURED.

DR.. Joseph Colt Bloodgood of Balti
more, an authority on the subject,
states that About % per cent Of the
fully developed cancers have been cured
by surgery and that if every case
were recognized while it is still local
disease and were then removed by a
competent surgeon every case should
b. cured. Inasmuch as there were
about $4,000 deaths in the United States
in 1915, it would appear that cancers
are not being recognized early enough
and even when recognized are not being
handled as vigorously as they should be.
Apparently cancer is rapidly in
creasing. Hoffman estimates that the
increased number of deaths in thirteen
years from 1900 to 1913 amounts to
more than % per cent. Authorities
state that cancer is responsible for
more deaths in persons over forty years
OF age than any other cause. In Wis
consin the number of deaths approx
mate 1000 annually. One hundred
women die of cancer to every sixty
three men.
While there are the conflicting be-
liefs and theories concerning the cause
Of the disease there is no conflict, what
soever, among students as to the cura
bility or rather removability of the dis
ease provided only that it is done early
enough. But to be removed early it
must be discovered early.
In no other important cause of death
and terrible suffering has the individual
so much the control of his fate in his
own hands as he has in cancer. It's
up to him as to whether or not he pre-
sents himself to competent physician
for Identification o: suspicious Jumps,
to know the cause Of indigestion and
unnatural bleeding. It's his business,
unless he's willing to pay the high cost
of ignorance, to learn for himself the
common facts concerning the disease.

TANNING THE UNNAMED GIANT OF
THE AGES
Electricity Defied by Ajax Now Har-
messed to Operate Milwaukee
Trains Over the Rockies.


The myth of Ajax's defiance of Jove's
lightning was the expression for three
thousand years of the worlds opinion
of electricity.
Then suddenly, in few decades,
the terror of the ages was seen to be
the most benefcent and most powerful
servant of man.
Its transcerdent value to the race is
nowhere better exemplifed than in the
identification of the milwaukee
Road for 440 miles from Harlowton,
Montana, to Avery, Idaho. From the
plunging mountain waterfalls, it is
taken and sent along the wires to the
mighty electric locomotives that haul
the all steel trains Of 1.-The Olympian"
and The Columbian and the long
heavily loaded freight trains over the
mile high ramparts of the Great Con-
mental Divide. Whether to carry ton
mage or to yield the traveller the COM
forts of smooth, clean travels, it's enor-
nous power, in winter and in summer,
is wholly at mans service.
To the supreme travel qualities of the
milwaukee, splendid roadbed-
Luxurious equipment = magnificent
scenery-accessibi lity to several of the

1916 Is the One-Hundredth Anniver-

Richland Center Republican Journal
This year-A. D. 1916-is the one
hundredth anniversary of year with
out a summer In 1916 there was a
very curious even distribution of tenn
perature throughout the year. January
was so mild that flies were not neces
sary.' February was not cold. March
"came in like lion, but went out like
lamb" April came in warm but
grew colder at the close, and in May
there was winter temperature. Ice
formed half an inch thick on the ponds,
the corn was killed, and the fields were
planted many times. There was frost
in June, and snow and ice in July
August was the coolest month of the
entire year, and the autumn was rather
mild.

Beware of "Mr. SwindIebaum."


A few weeks ago a smooth stranger
blew into town and proceeded to take
orders for clothes. He exhibited a nice
line of samples and gave the name and
address of the firm he was supposed to
represent. He succeeded in doing quite
a stroke of business and with each order
he demanded payment of $3.50 on a
suit and $100 On a pair of trousers.
After getting about a dozen orders in
this way he quietly left town and moth
ing has been heard or seen of him
since. After waiting patiently for the
clothes to show up, some of the boys
wrote to the firm in regard to the mat
ter and received the reply that no such
person was representing them and that
they had no agents, and also requesting
that ''Mr Swindlebaum' be arrested,
but he was probably plying his graft
elsewhere by that time..- Randolph
