EMINENT SURGEON CLAIMS
CANCER CAN BE PREVENTED

"Cancer is the great human men.
ace. 1t is increasing by leaps ano
bounds. If anything, it is increas-
ing more rapidly in the United States
than it is in the British Isles. OF
those living in the British Isles, 5,
100000 are doomed to die of can
Ger if they do nothing to prevent it.
In the United States the doomed
number is 100000 and might cas-
lily rise to 10000 900 or 100000 900.
This remarkable statement is made
by Sir W. Arbuthnot Lane, Bart,
one of the worlds most eminent sur
geons and dietitians, in an article
appearing in the June 20 issue of
the Dearborn Independent.
According to Sir Arbuthnot, can
Ger is not cause by the bacillus
that scientists have so long sought
and not yet found, but rather by
poisons created in the body by food
that is eaten. 1t is a filth disease,
and it's prevention is accomplished
by keeping the digestive tract tho
roughly drained of its accumula-
tions.
Continuing the Doctor says:
"What we should do then, if W.
would avoid cancer, is to eat whole
wheat bread and raw fruits, and
vegetables, stunning all meat, first
that we may be better nourished,
second that we may more easily eli
inmate waste products and thus ade-
.quately drain the house in which
u cells live. Whoever foregoes
white bread will perform a great
service to himself. 1t is deadly"
1t is a different task to change
the food habits of a nation or to in
duce the people to take sufficient
exercise each day. Sir A%rbuthnot
says, however, that 'whoever will
correct his diet to a reasonable ex-
tent, take reasonable exercise and
keep his digestive tract absolutely
need have no fear of cancer"

advertisement of some progressive
grocer. The argument holds in
connection with every necessity,
luxury and specially that the pub
lie buys.
The trouble with many adver-
Using solicitors is that they talk
advertising in general terms. Some
are so lacking in that they
approach a prospect and ask him
if he wants any advertising. IF he
says no, they depart. They should
discover if he has anything new in
stock. IF he has it shouldn't re-
quire much craftsmanship to on
vince him that be should advertise
it. And it shouldn't require a great
amount of craftsmanship to con-
vince a merchant that he should
advertise staples and seasonable
things of all sorts. Merchants who
who do it get the business. But
there are many backward mer-
chants who need not be reminded
of the things they should adver-
tise, just as much as the public
needs to be reminded to buy them.
Catalogue houses and successful
city merchants never fail to re-
mind the public that they have
the goods.

SELLING ADS THAT
Sell MERCHANDISE
(Ideas of an AID SOlicitor)

(Ideas Of an AID Solicitor)
Men buy newspapers for the
news and general reading matter
contained; they read some of the
advertisements. They are paying
more attention to advertisements
as they discover the interest and
profit in doings so. Women read
less of the general news, but they
read local news and features quite
thoroughly, especially such fea-
lures and departments as have a
feminine interest,"; and they read
all the advertisements that are de-
signed to attract their attention,
provided they find the advertise
ment worth reading.
Where the advertisement on
tains merely the name of the ad-
vertiser and general mention of
his line of goods, it hasn't a great
deal of interest for a AL
most any advertisement is better
than none, but women prefer some
thing specific in a merchants an
nouncements. They want to be
told something about the goods.
They appreciate a list of articles.
They want to know when there is
something new or especially sea-
sonable in the market. They are
partial to price advertisements.
Illustrations are used in advertise
ments, not to attract attention
alone, but for the reason that a
good picture frequently tells a
story better than words and is
also a reminder of the article need
ed. Ads that specify something
are the kind that sells goods.
Advertising has grown to its
present proportions largely on the
strength of its reminding power.
1t may be said that no one needs
to be reminded to buy necessities;
but if there are two merchants In
a town, one of whom advertises the
bare necessities of life contained
in his stock, he will sell more of
them than the other merchant who
does not advertise them. 1t thus be-
comes evident that people need to
be reminded of their necessities.
