Supposed Ancient Paper
Proves One of Many in
Hands of Medfofd Folk
(IVv IXu Neahui)
The wurld has gone synthetic
ami nothing can he accepted as
genuine. Not even the copy f
an old newspaper, it seems. For
Americans are too adept at copy-j
ing and camouflaging, too I'ond ;
of "antliiuing," for many relics;
to be trusted as such, j
At least that's what replies re- j
ceived today n answer to an I
article published in yesterday's
Mail Tribune would Indicate. j
They beait to arrive ut an early ,
hour und were Instructive, as well!
as disillusioning, for they showed ,
very plainly that the copy of thej
llier County Cazette, dated Janu-j
ary 4. ISAM, and owned by Air. j
and .Mrs. j. (. 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. Alaasdam,. 40
South Central, who stated that j
she has a copy of the same news-1
paper with the same black bor
ders, commemorating the death of
Oeorge Washington. And dated
January 4, 1S00. 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.
She also has a newspaper pub
lished in 1SU.1, which tells of the
assassination or Abraham Lincoln.

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.

be disputed now. but that of its
predecessor will he.. 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.
"Cancers of tho breast are fro
nuently preceded by chronic In
flammatory conditions In that or
