Spring meant tonic time to an
older generation. Today it means
greater attention to the importance
of vitamins in the diet, for we now
know that most tonic effects come
from the vitamins in our foods.
Milk, eggs, plus sunlight or cod liver
oil, plenty of fruit, and the new
green vegetables such as lettuce,
celery, endive, parsley, cress and
spinach will help supply your quota
of spring tonic vitamins.

as "hormones"-was held out by
DR.. Antoine La Cassagne, associate
director of the famed Curie Insti-
tute of the University of Paris.
Now on a lecture tour in the
United States on invitation of lead
ing medical and science groups,
DR.. La Cassagne said:
Great progress in the under
standing of cancer has been made.
The major lines of present research
are especially promising"
The research with which DR.. La
Cassagne and the Curie scientists
are principally concerned now is
that involving hormones, or chemi-
cal substances which circulate
through the body, producing
changes in its functions and con-
dition. DR.. La Cassagne said:
"There is evidence that, for
every hormone, there is an antag-
onistic hormone. The problem,
then, is to determine the cancer
producing hormone, and then try

to identify and stimulate the action
of the hormone that will fight it.
Making the cancer-fighters task
all the more difficult, he said, is the
fact that there are many .differen,
types of the disease, and probably
many different causes. If the
causes can be determined, then
methods of prevention and treat
ment can be more intelligently
sought.
The physician declared:
Surgery, radium and X-ray re-
main the principal methods of
treatment. Research may show us
entirely different and more effec-
tive methods"
Because hormones are transmit
ted from parents to children, the
importance of learning what hor-
mones are cancer-producing is ire
mendous, the doctor pointed out.
The study Of cancer-producing
chemicals is being led by the Lon
don doctors, Kenaway and Cook,
he said, and their work has shown
a close link between these chamicals
and the hormones.

Discovery Of Tiny
New Star Reported

MI. WILSON, Cal. Jan. 8. UP
Discovery of the smallest star yet
known, only 1000 miles in diameter,
was reported today. Surprised as
tronomers found it weighs $40 tons
per cubic inch, has a gravity pull
100000 times stronger than the
earth's, and is enveloped in an at
mosphere only II feet thick.
DR.. c. P. Kuiper. who sighted the
faint white speck in the outer sky,
said it was a rare White Dwarf
star. Out of the millions of visible
stars. only four or five White DWarfs
have been seen with the Carnegie
observatory'S 100-inch telescope
here.
Bulking only about one-third as
big as the aStronomically tiny earth,
the sky baby's small size is empha-
sized by comparison OF its 4000-mile
diameter with the sun, 5000 miles,
and the largest known star, Antares,
400, 100000 miles.
DR.. Kuiper found its gravity pull
is tremendous. A man weighing $50
pounds on earth, transported to this
star, would weigh 24625 tons, &C
cording to calculations made from
his estimates. Under the terrific
strain human body would collapse
and spread like water.
Composed of Gas
The star is composed of gas heaV-
Ter than anything existing on earth,
the astronomers found.
A tennis ball filled with gas,
brought to earth, would weigh some
thing over 1000 tons. Only der
rick could lift the pellet, and If drop
ped, it would dig hole IN the earth.
How gas could be this heavy was
explained by the stars great heat Of
$4,000 degrees. In this scorching
furnace, atoms lose some of their
electrons and can crowd closer to-
gether. Thus there is much more
matter and weight, per cubic inch.
So dense is the star, that its tidal
pull would shatter apy of the larger
stars which might venture near, DR..
Kuiper said.
The queer star has an atmosphere
so thin that, if the earth had one
similar, living two stories above the
ground would be impossible. The
rind of air covering the earth for
some miles up from the ground is
compressed on the small star to only
