Bright’s disease! ... Time went on—

which with the diet,- greatly weakened
the poor woman. A third doctor said
it was “the change” and that “all wo
men were troubled that way.”
On the advice from her second phy
sician, she went to a hospital in the
neatly city. Here s.*e was subjected
to a*^ clinical diagnosis, and was told
that it was not advisable to do an.v-
thing radical at that time. She re
turned, home and kept im dieting—
and losing.
She applied to me about one -week '
ago at this writing'. I found absolute
ly no diabetes or Bright’s- di.sease. A
search for the source of the bleeding j
revealed cancer, mvolving nearly ev-j
ery organ within the pelvis, and long
past the stage when op ration could
do mere than to hasten tlie end! She

Next best to teeing friends and rdativet is talking

telephone them at small^cost.
Out-of-town telephoning costs less than i
people imagine. For example, the station-tn-station day
rate to appoint 125 miles away is about 75 cents. If you
call during the night period, the rate is much lower.
