CANCER GONE IN TEN DAYS
SAYS A FORMER SUFFERER
Unionyille, Mo-, Mar Tells of Mild
Treatment Which Causes Growth
to Drop Out Easily.

Cancer sufferers who have been
advised to have surgical operations
will be interested in the remarkable
recovery of j. N. Hodson, Unionville,
Mo-, who for seven years had a cancer
on his left cheek. He declined to have
an operation but, instead, was treated
by a mild medical method discovered
by DR.. o. a.. johnson, noted Kansas
City specialist. "In ten days." Mr..
Hodson says, "my was killed
and had dropped out"
Although it is almost thirteen years
since Mr.. Hodson's recovery, he says
he is still in excellent health. The
treatment responsible for his recov-
cry was perfected by DR.. Johnson af-
ter nearly twenty-five years of cancer
study and research. 1t entirely does
away with surgery. Purely medicin-
al measures are employed: that is,
external applications to destroy the
cancer and internal medication to
purify the blood. The treatment US
ually requires only two to six weeks.
Full information about the method
and it's success may be obtained in a
new edition of a 168-page book,
Cancer Truths" which will be sent
free to anyone interested. Merely
send your name to DR.. 0. A.. johnson,

I'm young-Only thirteen. But l feel woman is as old as she feels. Besides, Nurse Sarah says am old for my age, and that it's no wonder, the kind of life I've lived.
 And maybe that is so. For Of course 1t has been different, living with a father and mother that are getting ready to be divorced. from what il would have been living with the loving happy -ever-after kind. Nurse Sarah says it's shame and pity, and that it's the children that always suffer. But I'm not suffering-not mite. I'm just enjoying it. It's so exciting
 Of course if was going to lose either one, it would be different. But I'm not. for l am to live with Mother six months then with Father.
 So l still have them both. And, really. when you come right down to it, I'd rather take them separate that way. Why, separate they're just per iectly all right, like hat-that-what-
 lo-yOu-call-it powder? - sedlitZer, or something like that. Anyhow. it's that white powder that you mix In two glasses, and that looks just like water till you put them together And then, oh, my, such fuss and fizZ and splut- ter! Well, it's that way with Father and Mother It'll be lots easier to take them separate, l know. For now l can be Mary six months, then Marie six months. and not try to be them both all at once, with maybe only five minutes between them.
 And think I shall love both Father and Mother better separate, too. Of course love Mother, and I know I'd just adore Father If he'd let me-he's so tall and fine and splendid, when he's out among folks. All the girls are simply crazy over him. And am, too. Only, at home-weIl. it's hard to be Mary always. And you see, he named ne Mary

 Well, yes, Miss Mary Marie, things did begin to change right there an then. an so you could notice it. We saw it, though maybe your pa an ma didn't at the first.
 You see. the first month after she came, it was vacation time. an he could give her all the time she wanted An she wanted it all An she took it. An he was just as glad to give it as she was to take it. An so from mornin' till night they was together, traipSin' all over the house an garden an trampin' off through the woods and up on the mountain every other day with their lunch.
 You see she was city-bred, an not used to woods an flowers growin wild: an she went crazy over them. He showed her the stars. too, through his telescope; but she hadn't mite of use for them, an let him see it good an plain.

REMEMBER THE
 CHAUTAUQUA
HOlbrOOk April 30

The Chautauqua season of 1922 is an important one In the EIlison-White Lyceum and Chautauqua Association as It IS the tenth anniver- sary of the establishing of their Chautauqua business in the West.
 The outstanding number Tn the entertaining field will be the production of Happi- mess" which will be given by the Elias Day Players of Chicago. MT. Day is one of the best known actor pro- ducers of the middle west. and the announcement of his name as producer is in itself a sufficient guarantee of a standard attraction in every sense of the word. Happiness" is one of the most discussed plays of the decade. It has to do with the ambitions and the dreams of an uneducated. vet bright. shop-girl. There is abund- ant humor and pathos inter- interwoven, and a delight ful love story running thro- ughout the play.
 It is a safe prediction that l the Garner Jubilee Company and Male Quartet will draw tremendous crowds at Chau- tauqua. The Garner organi- zation IS conceded to be the finest of it's kind in America. The Biltmore Orchestra, a group of middle western art ists bring to Chautauqua a distinct departure in cham Der music interpretation. The Biltmores play not only the classical numbers but !pOpular numbers as we'll, and they never failto please.
 The Loren Bates Company and the Patricia. Trio are two other musical entertainment companies which will meet with popular favor. Loren Bates is a clever young char acterist who specializes in "wig and grease paint" work. Miss Leatha Shriber, soprano, and Miss Helen Smith, are capable assisting artists to MT. Bates. The Patricia Trio is built around Miss Patricia Hale, drama tic soprano and possessor of a glorious voice, whose work 1 in the east has attracted wide attention.
 Among the lecturers not ed on the program are Dr. William E. Bohn, for fifteen years an outstanding educa-
 ional figure of the east, and Captain "Dinny" Upton, Big Brother to a Hundred Thousand Kids" recognized authority inrecreation. "The House We Live In" will be the subject of the inspiring lecture to be given by Virgil I. Shepherd. MT. Shepherd 1 is a gifted California writer and lecturer.
 The Junior Chautauqua, as usual, will be a big feat ure, and already there in considerable interest mani fested among the kids of the city.
