490 RESEARCH CLINIC 10 FIGHT CANCER Dr. Charles Mayo Among Physicians Who Will Seek Cure and Preventive. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 14.—Science's new- est attack upon the unsolved problem of cancer will be launched next month in a research clinic at the Cook County Hospital under direction of eminent doctors, including Dr. Charles Mayo, tamous surgeon of Rochester, Minn. By observation, experimentation and studying discoveries of other clinics, the sclentists will seek the cancer cure and preventive which they believe exists. Final plans for the clinic were draft- ed this week at Rochester, where Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, coroner of Cook County (Chicago), and Anton J. Cer- mak, president of the Cook County board, had gone to confer with Dr. Mayo. Dr. Mayo made the plans pub- lic when he passed through here yes- terday en route to New York, from where he will sail for a European va- cation. Cancer on Increase. “The importance of this new clinic cannot be overestimated” Dr. Mayo said. “Cancer is on the increase in this country. Last year there were 127,000 cancer deaths and at the present time | it is estimated more than 250,000 per- #ons are suffering from it. One out of every eight women over 40 years old | and one out of every nine men over | that age die from cancer, statistics | show. “In this new clinic we will have an opportunity to study all the differ- ent methods that have been devised for treating _cancer and select the ones which will help us curh the deadly men- ace.” Research Staff on Duty. The clinic’s activities will be car ried on Ly a research staff to be as. signed by Northwestern and Loyal Uni- versities and the Universities of Chicago and Illinois. In announcing preliminary plans for the clinic several weeks ago, Dr. Mayo declared the clinic’s work might cover several generations. At that\time he explained that inciplent cancer cases | would be observed until they had com- pleted their course. FROM “MONASTERY”| Actors' Club, After Two-Year | Trial, Withdraws Admission Privilege to Fair Sex. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 14.—The Monas- tery of the Friars, or, in other words, the clubhouse of that actors’ organiza- tion, has closed its doors to wWomen after a two-year trial Not that the “Friars” were free and easy in their hospitality to the ladies, but for the last two years they have per- mitted them the use of a small recep- tion room at the entrance. Now even that privilege is to be withdrawn and the women will have to park in their cars, or, as James J, Corbett suggested, remain ‘at home. “It wasn't that the room mattered,” sald Gentleman Jim, “but there isn't any gentleman’s club ‘that likes to have ladies dropping in, and who ever heard ©f ladies in & monastery?” The ban does not extend to enter- tainers taking part in any function within the club. i - i MY Of all the films shown in Germany in the last five years 43.7 were Ge n- made, and of the 56.3 per cent of for- eign origin 37 per cent were from the United States.

HOLLYWOOD, Calif,, June 14.—If the old rivalry of the screen stars is ne—the picturesque rivalry between la Negrl and Gloria Swanson, for lrlufl.lnce-lhere is a fresh rivalry in its place. in the Hollywood of tomorrow? Ina Claire, say her producers; Ina Claire, shout her publicists and friends. This beauty, they say, holds the reputation the American stage. And to this Irene Bordoni, who has taken the joy out of life for more ostriches than any woman living, just smiles enigmaticaily to stories of Ina Claire's $20,000 worth of gowns for her first picture. Twenty thousand! H'm— a Bordoni neglige might be worth al- most that. On the sidelines of the skirmish, lut in the front ranks of fashion, stands the tall, pale Ilka Chase, sponsor of exquisitely patrician modes. Reduced to a line, her motto might sn't_what you wear, but how you wear it. It isn’t what you put on a gown, it's what you leave off the frock that makes it.” Studio dressmakers who slap on the rhinestones by the thousands and call it a “perfectly swell day” are up against their first problems with the Ilka Chase type. This lady isn't a sponsor of the bead-and-bugle mode. She doesn’t count success by the amount of scintil- lation her gown throws off, or even the amount of dollars her producer throws in. Curve and cut -are the essential: and if the artists cut well Ilka Chase contributes the curves. Leonore Ulric makes her screen debut in a story of the “Frozen North."

Millions of Families _Depend; on Dr. Caldwell’s Prescription When Dr. Caldwell started to practice medicine, back in 1875, the needs for a laxative were not as great as they are today. People lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain, wholesome food, and got plenty of fresh air ahd sun- hine. But even that early there were drastic physics and purges for the relief of constipation which Dr. Caldwell did not be- lieve were good for human be- ings to put into their systems. So he wrote a prescription for a laxative to be used by his pa- tients. The prescription for constipa- tion that he used early in his practice, and which he put in drug stores in 1892 under the name of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid vegetable rem- edy, intended for women, chil- dren and elderly people, and they need just such a mild, safe, gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup Pepsin. Under successful management this prescription has proven its worth and is now the largest selling liquid laxative in the world. The fact that millions of bottles are used a year proves that it has won the confidence of people who needed it to get relief from headaches, bilious- ness, flatulence, indigestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia, colds and fevers. Millions of families are now AT AGE 83 never without Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, and if you will once start using it you will also always have a bottle handy for emergencies. e It is particularly pleasing to know that the most of it is bought by mothers for them- es and the children, though Syrup Pepsin is just as valuable for elderly people. All drug stores have the generous bottles. A trial is sure to convince any household of the merits of this famous prescription. Furniture Co. Easy in Many Styles, Pay Buy Your Summit Tires Now!
