Then a sore or ulcer appears on some part of the body J it may be small and harmless looking at first, but as the can cerous cells form mid are deposited by the blood near the sore, it increases iu size and severity, with sharp shooting pains. No matter how often the sore is removed by the surgeon's ktiife or flesh destroying plasters, nnother conies and is worse. The real disease is in the blood, and the treatment must befjitj there. The poisoned blood must be invigorated and purified, and when this is done cancerous cells can no longer form and the sore will heal naturally nnd permanently.

Wu Ting rang, the Chlneao minister, who arrived last night from Washington, delivered an ad dress tonight bofore tho American Academy of Political and Social Science. Mr. Wu. who has made frequent trips to this city but never has seen tho sights of tho city. was taken on a tour of observation today by members of the ucadcmj'. A visit was mado to tho University of Pennsylvania, Leaguo Island navy yard, Standurd Oil works and a largo number of Industrial establishments. After completing his sightseeing tour tho minister was the guest of Provost Charles C. Harrison of tho University of Pennsylvania. Tonight's meeting of the Academy of Politi cal and Social Scleuco was held In the Now Century nudltorlum drawing room, which was filled by prominent men and women of tho city who camo to hear tho Chlnoso dip lomat. Mr. Wu's subject was "Tho Causes of Unpopulurlty of foreigners In China." Mr. Wu, In tho course of his remarks, said tho causo of tho untl-foreign feeling In China Is commonly supposed to bu duo en tirely to tho missionaries. This ehnrgo, ho said, Is unfair, for tho mlsBlonurles, who while in somo cases Indiscreet, hnvo dono murh good In China. Tho general nttltudo of foreigners, ho said, has had much to do with their unpopularity. They frequently treat tho customs, trndltlous nnd institu tions of tho country with contempt nnd In this way exclto illfeellng. Whllo woino for eigners treat tho Chineso with every con sideration, unfortunately tho mischief dono by others counterbalances tho favorable lm prcasslon. Tho remedies, Mr. Wu said, aro that foreigners show more consideration and politeness and the foreign press In China should nssumo a moro conciliatory tone. It would, ho said, bo a good thing to send only medical missionaries to China. 'Lot us," snld Mr. Wu ,ln conclusion, "profit by our past exporlcnco and avoid similar mlstnkes In tho future." Other speakers at tho meeting wero Dr. William A. P. Murtli., president of tho Im perial university at Pekln, nnd Hon. Oeorgo V. Seward, ox-mlnlster to China. Mr. Wu after his lecture was tendered an Informal reception. Chamber of Commerce Dinner. NEW YORK.
