Cancer Not Contagious.


!. Cancer is not contagious In order
to develop cancer or any other
chronic disease a certain diseased
condition of the body must exist. The
development of cancer and tubercu-
losis requires something more than
lus; there must be in the system that
upon which these parasites live and
thrive. The cancerOus growth in
itself is only symptom of a deep
and underlying cause. Scattering of
cancerous growths or tumors through
kinds and the knife only removes
the local manifestation, or the effect,
and does not reach the cause. and
sooner ~or later the disease breaks
out elsewhere. Cancer germlnates
and grows only in bad blood" .'mor-
bid soil" in the cells and tissues, and
nutrefying animal matter within the
body and benign or malignant
erowthS of cancer or tumof are pro-
duced in or attached to- certain
part. of the body oy some congestlon
or local irritation, resulting in the
rapid and abnormal multiplication Of
cells in cancer and tumor formations.
Cancer is, therefore, rooted in every
drop of blood" 1t cannot find sue
cessful lodgment. however, in nor pc
transmitted to a normal healthy
body.
Several years ago DR.. Nicholas
Sem. the noted cancer specialist of
Chicago, visited various parts Of the
world, including both highly civilized
and uncivilized countries. making an
extensive study of cancer and it's
basic causes. His conclusion was that
cancer is Civilized" disease re-
sulting from unnatural living. His
Investigations among the natives of
Africa served to strengthen his con.
viction that cancer is a product Of
"civilization." like many. if not all.
other chronic diseases. He could not
find nor hear of single case of
fcancer among the negroes of Africa,
and he states that the disease is
unknown among the Eskimo of
Greenland. Upon his return from
the world tour DIR. Sem is quoted
as saying that The nearer the hu-
man race approaches the animals in
habits. and particularly in the matter
of diet and dress. the freer it Is from
cancer. Cancer comes from overfeed-
ing and overliving. Drinking. gour-
mandizing, unnatural habits Of wom-
en-, such as lacing, ETC.. all help to
plant the seeds of cancer. The thing

Really, then, can you collect what's COM
ing to you from life-the zest, the accomplish
ment, the 'sfeel" and enjoyment tDife
with your investment in health?
There's no sacrifice in safety from coffee
and tea dangers bit. Postum fur
nishes the way.
Postum is pure cereal beverage, rich,
comforting and satisfying, desp brown IN
color, with a coffee-like tang and a flavor
which makes you say, ssFIow good it tastes!'
Don't think you will miss anything when
you change from coffee or tea to Postum.
You gain! Ask the Postum users. They
know. And they're mighty free to tell you.
Postum has been serving human need for
a quarter of a century. 1t has been world
wide table-drink these many years-the num-
ber of its users growing daily. Postum is sold
and served wherever good food and drink are
sold and served. And Postum is the mealtime
beverage of folks who have decided to come
up and keep up where they belong-purpose-
full, wide-awake, healthy and happy folks who
believe it's better to be safe than sorry-par-
ticular1y when it's more pleasant and agree
able being safe.
If you don't happen to be Postum user
yet,-wouldn''t it be better for you to be out
on the sunrise road, going up and keeping up,
and staying away from the shadows where so
many have found trouble and ddiscouragement?
We can't ask life to be fair with us, you
know-unless we're fair with ourselves. And
daily drugging of the nervous system is not
being fair with ourselves especially when we
know the facts as so many physicians have

Republican leaders came away from
firmly OF the impression that Gov.
Nathan l.. Miller would again be the
standard bearer of the party In 1922.
There had been doubt in the minds OF
some prior to that gathering. It had
been said the Governor had expressed
the desire not to serve more than one
term. At least half dozen booms for
the Guberatorial nomination next year
were taken to Syracuse ready to be re-
leased and pushed along. None of them
flourished most Of them were not even
unwrapped. 1t did not take long to
discover that the concensus of opinion
was that Gov. Miller would run again.
no matter what his personal preferences
might be.
This clearing of the atmosphere was
one of the beneficial incidental results
Of the convention In the minds of the
leaders. 1t will save much mannuvring
in the course of the coming year and
possibly much heartburning on the part
of those who may aspire to be Governor
of New York State some. day.

Gov. Miller as to serving only one term
when he became Governor It would

The Governor considers his economy
measures have been one of the great
achievements of the administration, but
the work has just been started. And,
the Governor in his speech declared
with emphasis. that when he has effected
