HOSPITALS
CANCER mortality in the U. S. last year was 120,000. A great per- centage of these people lost their lives through ignorance.
Because of the urgent need of edu- cating the public as to the true nature and characteristics of the disease ; its cause and proper treat- ment; G. C. Bohannon, manager of the' Bohannon Cancer Institute, of Berkeley, Calif., has written and compiled a book entitled "Practical Information on Cancer," which will be mailed gratis to anyone, on re- quest. You may phone, write or call.
THE BOOK contains more prac- tical, beneficial and educational in- formation than any book yet printed. Cancer mortality is rapidly increas- ing all over the civilized world.
In 1907 California had 59.9 deaths from cancer in each 100,000 popula- tion. In 1929 this death rate from can- cer had increased to 146.4 in each 100,- 000 population.
The reduction of this appalling death rate is squarely up to the people. Early treatment is the answer.
The book clearly explains the fail- ure of the knife, X-ray and radium in cancer.
The Bohannon Treatment has been successfully used in this Institution for 23 years. Will gladly refer you to hundreds cured all over the Pacific slope.
