REPARTEE
The humor of English political cam-
paign speeches, at its 'best, is unsur-
passed. When the late John Morley
had finished an oration by requesting
his hearers to vote for him, one man
jumped up and shouted angrily, "I'd
rather vote for the devil,"
"Quite so," returned the unruffled
s•tatesman, "but in ealse your friend
declines to run, may I riot then count
upon your support?" ---Detroit Free
Press:
Lincoln once took occasion to crit-
icize a Greek history on the brround
that it was tedious and monotonous.
One of those present, a diplomat, ob-
jected. Said he: "The author of
that history, Mr. President, is one of
the profoundest scholars of the age,
Indeed, it may be doubted whether
any man of our generation has plung-
ed more deeply in the sacred fount
of learning,'
"Yes, or come

up drier," said Lin -
When Dr. S. B. Harding was teach-
ing in the history department of In-
diana University, he was seen per-
ambulating across the campus one
bright Saturday morning pushing a
baby carriage.
"Out airing your son, Dr. Harding,
inquired a senior.
"No," said the professor with a
barely perceptible pause, "no -I'm
out sunnin. my heir."
Horace G' eeley, who always insist-
ed that the word "news" was plural,
once wired to a reporter: "Are there
any news?" The reply came by wire:
"Not a new."
Chauncey M. Depew, in his mem-
oirs, tells about a dinner given by
Queen Victoria to Liliuokalani, Queen
f the Hawaiian Islands.
"Your majesty;" said the dusky
personage, "Do you know that I am
a blood relative of yours?"
"I didn't," said the astonished Eng-
lish monarch. "How so?"
"Why," said Liliuokalani, "my
grandfather ate your Captain Cook."
On one occasion, a conse •vative
lady was taken down to dinner by
Winston Churchill. She said to him,
"Mr. Churchill, I must tell you that
I don't like yosrr politics. You may
say that it is simply a matter of
personal taste with me, just as I
might not like your -well, your
mustache." To which Mr. Churchill
replied, "I see no reason, madam,
why you .should come in contact with
ei ther."
Bernard Shaw is a vegetarian and
seriously objects to appearing at din-
ners and luncheons.
Lady !Randolph Churchill (who be-
fore her marriage was Miss Jerome
of New York) was ignorant of this
fact and asked him to luncheon to
meet a distinguished guest.
Shaw wired back to her, "Certain-
ly not. Why should I break my well-
known habits?"
Lady Randolph swiftly retorted by
wire, "Know nothing about your hab-
its but trust they are not as bad as
your manners." -Boston Transcript.
At a concert in Detroit, quarters
were decidedly cramped and Madame
Ernestine .Schumann-Heink, the solo-
ist, had to make her entrance from
the rear, down through the orchestra
with its maze of music stands. All
went well till she came to the orches-
tra where her familiarly large pro-
portions began knocking over music
racks.
"Gd sideways, Madame,"- hissed
Conductor G•abrilowi.tsch in an excit-
ed stage whisper.
Ernestine wrinkled her brow, gave
a puzzled look from right to left, and
called back to the conductor in a
hoarse whisper, "Mein Gott, I have no
sideways!"
SERUMS DISAPPOINT AS CURES
FOR CANCER
Surgery is the only cure for cancer
and only some forms of cancer are
curable. These facts may be accept•
ed. There is no serum that can cure
cancer and no particular reason for
supposing that there ever will be
cne. One might almost make the de-
spairing statement that there is n:,
particular reason for supposing that
there ever will be a cure at all, for
medical science knows little about
the cells of the body, and until this
knowledge is mastered there will be
little change in the treatment of can-
cer. There will be improvement in
technique of 'course, and there may
be a spread of education that will
bring incipient cases to the atten-
tion of the doctors at a time when an
operation can be undergone with as
much confidence as an operation for
appendicitis. But the mere multi-
plicity of those who are searching for
cancer cures -and unjustifiably hold-
ing out hope that they are about to
announce something important in a
few weeks -is not a reason fox be-
lieving that any revolutionary treat,
ment is: on the horizon nor that the
mystery is about to be salved. It is
not like searehing for a needle in a
haystack, in which ease the more the
searchers the sooner the needle will
be found. Nor is it like looking for
something missing in a cross -word
puzzle. It is, on the contrary, a prob-
lem bound up with the problem of life
itself to such an extent that the man
who solves it eventually maye be a
man who sees God,
The latest cancer "cure" is now
raging in ,San' Francisco, whither peo-
ple are hurrying from all parts of the
United States. They have gone in
bheir thousands and continue to go.
Not one of them has been cured. Not
one will be cured. They might as
well burn candles at the shrine of
some saint. If miracles are not
vou'c'hsafed they might just as well
remain at home, and miracles are as
likely to occur anywhere else as in
San Francisco. The story of the
pilgrimage to San Francisco is
briefly told by Dr. Francis Carter
Wood in The New Republic. It ap-
pears that two San Francisco. doctors,
Coffey and Humber, had been making
some experiments on the action of
the extract of various glands on can-
cer. They discovered that the injec-
tion of, an extract from the outer por-
tion of the adrenal gland of the
sheep, when injected into human be-
ings suffering from cancer, causes, in
some cases, a slight improvement,'
This they modestly stated hoping that
their investigations might be useful
to others. 'They made'no claims for a
cure. They merely suggested a treat-
ment. But for an over -enterprising
rewspaper reporter their remarks
would no doubt have appeared, cloak-
ed in obscure language, in some med-
ical publication to be noted and ac-
knowledged by some of the scientists
who are specializing in cancer. In
that event no harm would have been
done.
But the reporter represented their
suggested treatment as an absolute
cure and began to fill newspaper
space with his accounts of the new
wonder, People have been hearing a
good deal about glands these days.
They know they are mysterious, and
they have all been hoping, 'perhaps
subconsciously, for some medicine
that would cure cancer, just as the
alchemists hoped for some chemical
that would transmute metals. They
read the stories with avidity. New
patients began to pour in on the har-
assed doctors, crying for adrenal in-
jections. They were given, of course,
and the patients went away hopefully
while others jammed in to take their
places. In a few months the excite-
ment will die away, and perhaps bhe
doctors will be regarded as fakers,
though they have merely been the
victims of too much newspaper pub-
licity. iiut by the time the new myth
has been dissipated the myth that
comes from France and reports that
a cure for., mouse cancer has been
found by grafting adrenals into rab-
bits and then inje4ting the rabbit ser-
um into cancerous mice will also be
in full blast. News of this has but
recently reached these shores.
Dr. Wood suggested, which seems
extremely probable, that the mice
cured by the French scientists have
cured themselves by the development
of antibodies. Grafted caners are
only cultures of cancer cells, and
occasionally when a mouse differs in
its nature from the mouse from which
the original cancer was derived the
grafted animal cures itself in the
same way that a person who has once
had certain diseases is thereafter im-
mune. But this self -cure for grafted
cancer is wholly different from a cure
for a cancer self -developed, and it is
easy to draw rash and misleading in-
ferences when this vital fact is lost
sight of.
Dr. Wood, speaking of similar ex-
periments to those of the San Fran-
cisco physicians and earlier announc-
ed cures for cancer, says that it is
rothing new for a treatment to result
in temporary improvement, but invar-
iably after a check the fatal march is
resumed and the end is the same. The
reason for the failure of all attempts
to use serums or other injections in
cancer is that what will destroy the
tumor will destroy also the healthy
cells;of the body. So far it has prov-
ed impossible to attack one without
attacking the other. The same criti-
cism has been made against radium
treatment. It may abolish a tumor
and break down the kidneys. Some
tumors have been successfully ,pois-
oned while the patient recovered but
cnly those that are peculiarly sensi-
tive can be thus treated and the field
of operation is narrow indeed. The
vital thing, as Dr. Wood says, is to
the normal first and then the abnor-
mal. So far no constant and char-
acteristic difference between the can-
cer cell and the healthy cell has been
discovered. Until this has been found
and pondered it will obviously be
futile to attempt to spare the normal
and kill the abnormal by drugs or
serum's.
World's Grain Show.
J. A. Mooney, managing director of
the World's Grain Show, during a
recent visit to Ontario, stated that
there is a surprising interest growing
in Canada and in foreign countries in
this event, which will be held in Re-
gina from July 25th to August 6th,
1932. From enquiries he has esti-
mated that between fifty and 'sixty
countries will participate. The ex-
ecutive is receiving requests from na-
tional and international institutions'
to be pernnitte,d to hold their conven-
tions in Western Canada during the
show period.
Protecting Swine.
Vermin cause considerable annoy-
ance) to siwine and their presence in
large quantities 19 destructive to pro-
fits. If the swine have a good wal-
low hole they can free themselves of
the pest during the summer, but with-
out the assistance of a wallow, some
other aid mush be given er else the
lice will fl'ouris'h. The aplpiicartion of
crude roil to the pigis skin will make
the lice let go. The crude oil may be
applied through the use of a rubbing
pest equ'i'pped to deliver oil when the
pigs rub against it or it may be ap-
plied with an oil can. A good time
to do this is when the pigs are, stand-
ing at the feed trough. Colony hous-
es should be well sprayed with a two
per cenrt, solution of creoilin in the
autumvn and again in the siring.
