CANCER CURABLE IF
TREATED EARLY STAGE
PARIS, May 20.—(>P)—“Cancer is
curable,” declares Dr. Roger Peroux,
noted dermatologist of the Paul
Rrosse hospital, in Paris, “provided
two conditions are scrupulously ful
filled.
“The first condition is that the
cure can be commenced in time. No
matter what the cause, cancer is in
its beginning, a local disease and
can be treated successfully while
the infection remains localized.
“Unfortunately, many people neg
lect a slight sore, or an insignifi
cant bruise, and then, when it is
too late, they hasten to their doc
tor, whose aid at the eleventh hour
is too frequently unavailing.
“From the time when the cancer
can be eradicated to the moment
when it becomes too late for surgi
cal relief, often only a month
elapses and sometimes even less.
“Therefore, the extraordinary
growth of the disease should coun
sel immediate action.
“The second condition is an hon
est treatment. Countless are the
remedies that claim their efficacy
against cancer, but I have found by
*ong experience and research that
there are but two treatments that
really are worth while—radium and
X.rays.
“Let me again caution those who
have heeded the false promises of
patent medicines and cure-alls. They
are not always harmful, but they
never accomplish what they claim,
and their use is a snare and a de
lusion.
“Between the radium and the X
ray methods there is really very
little to choose. It is all a matter
of the surgeon’s ability. Some doc
tors have accomplished phenomenal
results with radium, but not all
with X-rays. Of late some experi
ments, not yet conclusive, have been
made with serums and chemicals.
“The important thing to be re
membered is that cancer in its be
ginning will rapidly respond to
treatment and at that stage can be
successfully eradicated. However,
that phase passes very quickly, and
hence the necessity of immediate
surgical intervention before it is
too late.”
JILTED SPANISH GIRL KILLS
MAN WHO WEDS RIVAL
OAKLAND, Cal., May 20.—Latin
love turned to hate today held true
to tradition and used a knife to gain
vengeance.
Miss Consuelo Robles, pretty 25
year-old Spanish girl, is held in jail
here charged with killing Phillip
Medena, 23, her former sweetheart.
Weping beside the dead man's bier
is his bride of three days, formerly
Virginia Triana.
Consuelo, police charge, followed
the newlyweds to this city from
Fresno, California, where they were
married. She accused Medena in
front of the home he and his wife
had just occupied, and plunged a
dagger into his breast. He died in
his bride’s arms, before medical aid
could reach him.
Miss Robles left the city on a
motor stage but was removed at
Livermore and returned to jail here.
“Oil, I didn’t want him to die,’’
she sobbed. “But he refused to
mary me. He say he will many
times, and I am about to have a
baby. Then he go away and marry
Virginia.”
The bride was too broken heart
ed to hold enmity against the girl
who, it is charged, killed iier hus
band. “My Phillip-—I love him only
three days then she take him from
me. My Phillip, he so good, and
now he is kill. This Consuelo, she
was his friend, but Phillip loved
only me. And then she kill him.
I wonder why?
MURDER CHARGE AGAINST
WOMAN WHO BEAT CHILD
TILLAMOOK, Ore., Miay 20.—(JF)—
An indictment charging murder in
the second degree was returned by
the grand jury here the other day
against Mrs. M. C. Paton, accused
of brutally killing her four-year-old
grand daughter, Sylvia Louise, daugh
ter of Mrs. Cora Deschamps, of Port
land and C. B. Deschamps of Wash
ougal, on her homestead, near Meda.
The indictment followed a long hear
ing in which many witnesses were
called.
More than fifty people, mostly
residents of the Meda district, wait
ed in the court room during the day
for the opportunity to testify.
The alleged failure to act on a
petition drawn up by neighbors to
have the children taken out of her
custody before the death of Sylvia
occurred has oaused severe censure
of the county officials, some of the
petitioners said.
So is work, Sherman, when one
knows the fish are biting.
Some men are born with consci
ences and others marry them.
An empty head isn’t a total loss.
It affords more room for argument.
HAMILTON WOMAN
ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
HAMILTON, May 21.—(/P)—Mrs.
Carl Jones, wife of the proprietor

lieved that she will recover.

YEARS IN SEATTLE BUT
NOT MEMBER OF THE BAR
SEATTLE, May 20.—(£>)— After
practicing law in county and state
courts for more than twenty years,
Walter B. Allen, Seattle lawyer, was
barred from further practice in an

lected to file his Alaskan certificate
with the clerk of the supreme court
at Olympia.

AUTO INSTRUCTOR
ADMITS WOMEN NO
PUZZLE TO HIM
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., May 21.—
(£>)—Here is another mere man who
thinks he has analyzed the fair sex.
He is Samuel Long, driving in
structor for a local motor company.
He can “tell at first glance,” he says,
whether a woman will “make” a good
driver. Here is the way he has cata
logued the women:
Fat women—good, fine, great.
Tall women—not so good.
Red-headed women—the best.
School teachers—terrible.
The school teachers, Long says,
thru association with stubborn pu
pils, become stubborn themselves and
can’t be taught.
GAS STOVE REVEALS
SECRET WEDDING
LYNN, Mass., May 21.—(#*)—A hid- I
den romance and a secret wedding
were revealed here recently by a
mistake in the delivery of a new
gas stove.
The gas stove arrived at the home
of Mrs. Alfred S. Hill. Mrs. Hill,
knowing the stove was not for her,
began an investigation. As a re
sult she learned that her son, Alfred
S. Hill, an employe of the Lynn post
office, and Miss Alice Schroeder were
secretly married last October, and
immediately after the ceremony they
went to their homes and failed to
divulge their secret.
The gas stove had been purchased
by the bride and groom and should
have been delivered to their home.
