In (he meantime .the truth remains
that. no disease has made such rapid
headway within the past thirty years
as cancer. Dr. Roswell Park of Buf-
fate, one of the most distinguished au-
thorities on the subject, declares that
the disease is progressing at so ratan!
a rate that if it continues it

combined. In thirty years -the' deaths

trebled ip the United States, and dur-
ing the Same period:near* itilllifed in

liams in the Lancet a August 29,, 1898,
shows that in 1840 cancer' mused. '2,780
deaths, the proportion being one in
.e,(310 of. the total population, and. one
in 129 of the total mortality. In 1890
the deaths due to it numbered 4521;
or one in'1,000 of tne total population
and one in 22 of the total mortality:
Some statisticians have endeavored to
explain away this inerease in the more
teillty„from cancer as misleading, and
assume that the increase is only an -
parent, and is due to improved
Methods in detecting the disease. but
even if this to a certain extent
be so the increase has been 'too rapid
for this explanation -to-cover-the
whole ground. •
Fortunately, there a bright side
to this dark 'picture. Dr. Roswell
Park's statement on the subject has
aioused the authorities, and already .a
