Senn said that cancer was a disease of civilization, and that the best preventive was clean, plain living. Ho also said that the disease was incurable except In tho incipient stage and then only by the knife. D. William Mayo, tho distinguished sur geon of Rochester, said of cancer of the stomach: "There is something fundamentally wrong in the food or In the cooking of civilized men that gives such a preponderance (nearly one-third) to precancerous conditions In the gastric region. The amount of meat consumed undoubtedly has something to do with the prevalence of concer." Dr.

Williams, the great English specialist, says that cancer has Increased in England just in proportion as flesh eating has Increased, and traces a definite relationship between tho two. In Germany, England and the United States one In eight women past thirty years die of cancer. It Is estimated that there are three hundred thousand cases of this terrible malady in tho United States today. These cases aro chiefly among the well-fed and particularly those who use large quantities of meat and alcohol. Cancer Is four times as prevalent In northern Europe, where most of the meats and liquors are used, than In southern Europe where the diet is more vegetarian In character.

The mortality is highest In Holland and Switzerland, where the diet 13 largely protein, being In the form of cheese and meat, and where much coffee and 'beer are drunk. In China, in those provinces where the diet is chiefly lce, cancer Is unknown. A certain sect of Russians in Canada, ten thousand in number, who abstain from the use of fish, flesh, foul, tea, coffee and alcohol, but partake freely of vegetables and honey, and are scrupulously clean, rarely ever know disease. Their manager says there has never been a case of cancer among them. Cancer is a disease of lower animals as well as of men.

It shows the same prevalence among llesh-eatlng animals. Those fish which feed on fish are subject to cancer. It is also, common among cats and dogs, rats and mice, but rare among cows, sheep, horses and goats. Dr. Ehrllch found that mice living on a rice diet cannot be inoculated with cancer, while those living on a meat diet are readily inoculated, the tumor growing rapidly and ending In death.

Cancer Is thus shown to be a disease of flesh-eating men and of flesh-eating animals. It Is among civilized people who are out of harmony with nature that malignant disease Is reaching Its height. Tuberculosis, which has held the foreground as the universal scourge of humanity, may soon be outdistanced by cancer. Cancer does not develop in healthy tissue, but in tissue rendered vulnerable by improper living. It follows that we who would avoid cancer must avoid excesses In meat, alcohol, tea, coffee and condiments.

By this means we maintain the alkalinity of the blood which gives the body resistive power. Flesh eating, by increasing tne acid contents of the cell, diminishes the alkalinity of the blood, while a diet of fruit, nuts, vegetables and cereals increase the alkalinity. You Should Use Madam P.
