Grim the Alternate of Reform.
A strong Democratic party is infil
nitely more to be relied on as a check
upon the Republican machine than an
occasional spasm of third-partylsm,
Persons who realize the necessity of
checking the ravages of the Penrose
machine have no rational choice,
therefore, except to vote for Grim,
who has proved his ability and integ:

years, and, whose nomination came to
him honestly, as the voluntary act of

Growths Subjected to a Temperatare of
160 Degrees Below Zero,
At a convention of homoeopathic
doctors, in Williamsport, last week,
Dr. Ralph Bernstein, of Philadelphia,
gave a practical demonstration of re-
moving cancer by freezing, in other
words by solidified ocarbon-dioxide.
The cancerous growths are subjected
to a temperature of one hundred and
sixty degrees below zero,
When Dr. Bernstein's demonstra-
tion came off the first two patients
that presented themselves for treat.
ment were a muan and 8 women, The
former was suffering from a cancer op
the back of the hand. The latter from
s malignant growth on the nose. The
symmetry of the organ was partly de-
stroyed. The man went on the stage
first. Prior to the demonstration Dr.
Bernstein drew a quantity of carbon
dioxide from = steel tube. It came in
the form cf snow, intensely cold and
white. It was handed about among
the doctors, who touched it gingerly.
Then came the demonstration. An-
other portion of the snow was drawn
from the steel tube and the cylinder of
frozen chemical applied to the cancer
on the man's hand. He said that he
felt nothing, The treatment lasted
about a minute, maybe a little more.
At the end of that time the surface of
the cancer was white as the solidified
chemical.
The treatment of the woman's all.
ment followed. Apparently she felt
no pain. The white, frigid substance
was applied to her face about the sane
length of time that was consumed
with the man. Duriog the demon
stration the doctors crowded close to
the stage and watched the treatment
with almost breathless interest.
According to Dr. Bernstein, carbon-
dioxide used in ite modified form im.
mediately freezes Lhe cancerous tissues,
causing the part todry wp, and it is
then taken care of by nature and
quickly absorbed. This process seems
to have the faculty of permitting the
skin to regenerate itself, #0 that scar
ring is usually sbeent. The process
of procedure is practically painless,
sod Dr. Bernstein asserts that he has
bad no fallures io the hundreds of
cases which he has treated,
Dr. Bernstein further cautioned
against the use of caustics, cancer
plasters, acids, ete , because of the fact
that they do not thoroughly destroy
the caneerous tissue, or germ If it
exists, and have a tendency to stimu-
Iate the deeper cells to renewed growth
and activity.
Although s young man Dr. Bern.
stein has schieved eminence as a
specialist in skin disesses, He is der
matologist to the J. Lewis Crozer hos
pital for incurables at Chester, dermas-
tologist to the West Philadelphia Gen-
eral hospital and dispensary, the
Hahnamaonn hospital dispenssry sod
a string of other iostitutions. Iu ad-
dition he is a member of the Philadel
phis Academy of Medicine.

Last fall farmers could have had
from fifty to seventy-five cents for
their potatoes right from the field,
but many refused this price and held
them for an advance. This spring the
price was at no time above fifty cents,
and later the tubers could not be sold
at any figure. This fall the potato
growers are taking advantage of the
very fair price, selling the crop ae
rapidly as the potatoes can be lifted.
