In a case, however, where cancer has not been completely eradicated
before being formed, herbs must be compounded to cause the blood
circulation to force the poison to collect at the spot where external
treatments can draw it to a head, and help it to ripen, and to break out.
The Chinese do not believe, as do the Americans, in the possibility of
discovering some one thing, such as serum, radium, X-Ray, or applica-
tion of electricity to cure all kinds of cancer, regardless of location,
whether on the head, the rectum, or the mouth. Numerous cancers,
where X-Rays, electricity, or radium have been used, have been baked

volumes was compiled to be used as textbooks on the healing of dis-
ease by the government and people. This work gives clear instructions
regarding all kinds of cases, but it takes an intelligent, experienced
herbalist, with an extensive knowledge in the dispensing of herbs to
secure results, as the system of each individual sufferer differs in
strength and each case has its own complications.
BOTH ELECTRIC RAYS AND SUN BATHS DANGEROUS!
The secret of the Chinese methods of healing is the bringing of the
elements of the human body to function properly and evenly. For
example, just as we begin to suffer when the weather is too hot or too
