Sometimes, however, an editor is so irritated by the constant piracy of his news by some competitor, that he deliberately lays a trap for the rascal in the form of a false report. Here Melville Stone's* foiling of the old Chicago Post and Mail 50 years ago is the classic model. Mr. Stone, then part owner and editor of the Chicago Daily News, printed a false despatch about some fictitiously sad distress in Serbia and ran in some supposedly Serbian words, "Er us siht la Etsll iws nel lum cmeht," as meaning, "The municipality cannot aid."

...diffuse or miliary, resemble in some respects those of acute and chronic tuberculosis, fibroid phthisis, fibroid pleurisy, unresolved pneumonia, syphilis of the lungs, mucoses of the lungs, bronchiectasis, interlobar empyema, abscess of the lungs and enlargements and tumors common to the mediastinum. Of cancer of the lungs the constant symptoms seem to be: pain, dyspnea, cough, weakness, loss of weight, cachexia, fever, anorexia. Before deciding that his patient has cancer, the careful doctor, from his store of knowledge and experience, which no laymen need doubt or seek to supplement, eliminates all other possibilities. However, the physician keeps a possible secondary...
