Only a few years ago Dr. Forbes Ross, after many 
decisive experiments, startled the medical world by 
declaring that the absence of potassium salts was the 
cause of cancer; allowing an unnatural or incomplete

body ; while contusions or friction were only hastening 
or aggravating causes where there was a_ predisposition

When we come to the question of the mineral con-

animals) extracting their living principles therefrom, we 
find that nearly all plants have a starved appearance if

‘‘ The enormous death-rate from cancer is to a large extent due. 
to the fatuous and almost universal resort to operation, with its 
accompanying mutilation.”—Dr. Robert Bell.
