Not even the copy f an old newspaper, it seems.

F.ly of the Oldj Stae Uond is nut the only onej of itM kind floating about and ' that it is undoubtedly of thej wrong vintage. j The first call this mornlnu was: from Airs. (I. H.

She has owned the copy for moro than 40 years, her husband having purchased it from a man in Nebraska City, Neb., in lSSii. He paid f.O cents for the newspaper and that was probably tuo much, although she has since been offered $f0 for the copy.

It's authenticity Is not going to New Cancer Information Everyone Should Know Made Public by Society Ry Howard! W. Rlakcslee Associated Press Science Kditor. NEW YORK, Jan. . A summary of "what everyone should know about cancer" was issued today hy the American Soci ety for the con trol of cancer. It includes the ad vanced cancer info rmation of 1930. "With rare ex ceptions, there is no pain at tho beginning of any kind of cancer,' says the state ment. "By the time puin is felt, the cancer may be so far advanc- t-tw.BLAfAeSL.Ee ed that n cure is ' not possible, t "The ultimate cause of cancer is not known; but chronic irrita tion of great variety of types is usually the effective exciting fac tor. "There is no reason to believe that' cancer is due to a germ or parasite. It is not a 'blood di sease' and is not 'catching." "Food and diet apparently have no relation to the cause of cancer. Neither does aluminum nor any other kind of cooking utensil. "It is not caused by smoky atmosphere nor by any kind of climate. The noealled 'cancer house' which Is supposed to give its occupants this disease, does not exist. MARKHFIISLD, Jan. 8.

Kir the sec-j ond caller at The Mail Tribune this morning, brought proof that hot h newspapers, dated .la unary 1th. ikimi; are probably frauds. ; The newspaper of thai date has been most popular wit h counter feiters the article brought In by Airs. Sarah dinner of this city reveals. The article, which is an inter view with A. S. W. lIosHMtbaeh. was published in the Saturday livening Post June 1. litii. l'earding the I'lster County (lazette, M r. Uosenbach says: "Uist year a. friend came to Philadelphia to check up the es tate left him by a great uncle. It was a very pleasant visit, as you can Imagine. Air. Hlank spent weeks sort ing over barrels and cupboards in the hope, 1 think, of finding something of import ance. At last he unearthed on old newspaper dated January 4, 1S00. Its edges were printed in deep mourninn, and with amazed satis faction he read the important an nouncement of the death of len eral Washington. "You can imagine that my friend wasted little lime bring ing that newspaper to me. The moment 1 saw it 1 laughed. I had nood reason to laugh, too, or to tear my hair! For tho ghosts of countless I'lster County (lu nettes rose up before me. 10 very year hundreds of people bring me this worthless reprint of an origi nal that probably no longer ex bts." So the story ends. "While it has not yet been proved that a person can directly Inherit cancer, certain forms oc cur more frequently in some fam ilies than in others. "No age is free from cancer: babies are born with It. It is largely a disease of adult life, how ever, occurring between tho ago of 40 and 71). "As a principal cause of death In the United States cancer jrankod second in 1 it '1 1) , exceeded on ly by heart disease, "The pessimistic nttltude re garding cancer sometimes assumed by physicians as well as patients Is often unwarranted. Alany cancers can be cured by early diagnosis and early treatment. "Tho only effective methods of treatment of cancer are surgery, radium and X-rays In the hands of skilled physicians. "Cancer does not as a rulo de velop in previously healthy tissue. The smnl! scaly and slightly pig mented patch that appears on the face in later years demands atten tion because It may become can cerous. "Alotith cancers are largely pre ventable, since they are chiefly due to had toeth and tho cxcohsIvo use of tobacco, which nre remodlahlo conditions. Homo of tho flat, blue black moles existing from birth are dangerous especially if they are located whore they tiro subject to repealed injury or irritation.
