by the complexity of modern exist

man, who is connected with a New
Jersey life insurance company.

among women and in the throat and
stomach among men. It is increas sing
causing the worst ravages in Anglo
Saxon countries, Scandinavia and
Switzerland, where it can be said to
be nearly as great menace as tuber-

methods of classification. The cancer

medical problem of modern times"
