Vital Facts About Cancer.

q
The American Society for the Con.
troll of Cancer issues a leaflet on can
Ger in which is embodied the follow.
ing information:
/. During the Great War the
United States lost about $4,000 sol,
diers. During the same two years
10000 people died 9 cancer in this
country. Cancer is now killing one
out of every ten persons over forty
years of age. !
2. Many of these deaths are pre-.
ventable, since Cancer is frequently
durable, if recognized and properly
treated in its early stages.
8. Cancer begins as small local
growth which can be entirely remov-
ed by competent surgical treatment,
or, in certain external forms, by u.s.
ing radium, X-ray or other methods.
a. Cancer is not a constitutional
or "blood" disease; there should be
no Thought of disgrace or of "heredi-
tary taint' about it. ~
5. Cancer is not communicable
disease. 1t is not possible to .catch''
cancer from one who has it.
K 6. Cancer is not inherited. 1t is
not certain even that a tendency to
the disease is Inherited. Cancer is. SO
frequent that sinply'by the law of
chance there may be many cases in
some families, and this gives rise to
much needless worry about inherit
