CANCER STILL MYSTERY
Origin Unknown, Says Doctor Mayo
Hot Foods a Cause.

Chicago. oct. 26.-The causation of
cancer is yet unknown to medical sci
ence, according to a statement made
before the 3, 900 surgeons who for the
past week have been in Chicago at
tending the eighth annual convention
of the Clinical Congress of Surgeons
which yesterday merged with the
American College of. Surgeons and is
now known as the Clinical Congress of
the American College of Surgeons.
DIR. William T. Mayo. of Rochester.
Mimi, president-elect of the new
body in discussing the advances made
in the treatment of cancer, asserts
that while physicians cannot ascribe
exactly the causes of that disease, it
is known that hot foods taken into
the stomach often result in cancerous
groWths in that organ.
Clean food. coupled with food at
normal temperatures, might go a long
way in removing one of the first
causes of ca ncer. Doctor Mayo said.

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause-Take DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead Of
taking tones, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment - clogged liver
and disordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse the
liver in a soothing. healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling. no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods.
you should take Olive Tablets, the b.
stitute for czIomel
DR.. Edwards Give Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You viii know them BY their
olive color. They do the work without
gripping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for Quick
relief, SO you can eat what you like.
