COAST BREWERIES LIMITED \NCOUYER EW WESTMINSTER = VICTORIA know very little or from sufferers who have been already so severely stricken by the disease that they are are incurable, and who naturally suf- fer intolerable agonies. Frequently you hear people saying ‘I can’t have cancer because I don't feel ill, If I had a cancer I would be suffering.” A dangerous phrase which retards the intervention of the doc- tors and renders it useless when he does step in. Cancer, no matter of what organ, causes no discomfort at first; and it is Just because it brings no discomfort that the doctor often gets hold of the case too late, where, if he had been notified in the beginning, he could have effected a definite cure. Let us take a few of the more striking examples; a cancer develops in the breast of a woman, sometimes still very young. In the beginning it) will be nothing but a little hard ball} with no definite limits, that is, with- out clear outlines. Unless she is very minute in her toilet, the sufferer will not even perceive it, and even if she does will pay no attention, as it caus- es no suffering. She will not go to see the ducton" until the growth, still not particularly painful, has acked the glands sup- plying the breast, and th i late—if not for the phys tervene, too late for him to effect a complete and final cure. Let us take the case of a sick pers- on—most frequently a man between 40 and 60—who has a little ulceration of the tongue, which does not hurt him, which bleeds very slightly, but fairly often. Persons who have such lesions and | who do not suffer with them, wait weeks, sometimes months, laying the blame on a bad tooth, to tobacco, to alcohol, to any number of things. And thus he allows the time when he could have been completely cured to pass away.
