A despatch from New York says:— While ays:While stressing a warning at the out- set that only in certain casescan cancer be cured by X-rays anyway, Dr. Francis C. Wood, Director of the Crocker Institute of Cancer Research of Columbia University, announced a considerable advance in the treatment of this disease which, he said, had been made possible by a new type of. X-ray tube._:. This improved tube,.: Dr, `Wood said, had no greater curative powers than the old one, its chief importance lying, in its radiation of five to six times as many curative rays as the former -type;'thus lessening the neiessary:ex-, posure of a patient to the rays from hours to minutes. ,As a result, Dr. .Ood said, physicians may not be able to effect a large•number of ;cures, but' they will be able to treat a far greater number of patients in a day. Also, the cost of dads treatment is correspond ingly reduced. Tho tube is the invention of Dr, C. T. Ulrey, Research Engineer of the Westinghouse Lamp Co., who has been working with Dr. Wood for some time.. They have hopes -for an even greater tube, now in the expeiimental;stage, which will be able to stand • a suffi- ciently high voltage to give off rays. of muck shorter wave -length, thus ap- proaching the rays of radium, If this tube is perfected, Dr. Wood believes the medical profession will have more success in treating internal cancer, For with more penetrating rays and a shorter period of treatment it may be possible to reach an internal cancer without the great danger of harming the healthy outer body which exist& at present. ,r= Tim ,New Lord Shaughnessy 8 -Ie 1s the first Canadian son to sac- ,seed to a peerage conferred on his father Lord Mountstephen had no BOA, and Lord Strathcona's title' went to ,is daughter.

The terrific storm Which 'Was raging: when sire. was first reported testmayhave driven her into the'un;cnown areas of the desert, -There may be two results from the destruction of the Dixmude, It may mean the end of effort to maintain dirigibles as practical means of 'air transport=in war or peace. Of the. seventy-two dirigibles used in the great war, fifty-two were destroyed, twenty-six by the allies, fourteen by storms: and twelve by explosions. In comparison with the airplanes, their services were negligible. The bags, rust. glfei dies of the burning 'of giant dirigibles at Hull, England, and Hampton, ginia, are still fresb'fn men's lninde•' The second result may he the estap- lieltment of better communications In the great stretehel of the Sahara and the other unknown stretches of North- ermAfrica.
