"Without or with offense to friends or foes I sketch your world exactly as it goes" bvron. The Troubles of Coe . Dr. Henry Waldo Coe, professional patron of art, has struck another snug in his efforts to beautify Portland with memorials of himself in public places in the shape of stock and department store statues of the distinguished dead. The bronze statue of George Washington that he is presenting the metropolis proves to be different from that accepted by the art commission and the presentation has been protested on the ground of irregularity, so an official inquiry has been ordered. Dr. Coe has had rather a strenuous time in his role of Lady Bountiful of bronzes. The taxpayers positively refused to stand the cost of erecting a base for the Joan d'Arc statue he imported, holding that if the site was provided free, the vommunity had done her share. It seemed for a time that the Maid of Orleans would ride baseless, but the good doc tor's wife came to the rescue and provided the where-withal for the pedestal. Then there was the statue of Abraham Lincoln Dr. Coe tried to foist on the metropolis, for which one Augustus Mutt of Mutt and Jeff fame had apparently posed as model. At any rate the photos of the memorial depicted the "rail Bplitter" with all the well known characteristics of Bud Fisher's hero and so loud and vigorous was the protest over the caricature of the "emancipator" that a substitution was forced. Dr. Coe's art judgment seems to be on a par with that of the late Adolph Sutro of the San Francisco of 40 years ago who had spacious grounds filled with a menagerie of bronze dogs and other animals amongst which stalked plaster heroes of the past mingling with angels. It is probable, if Dr. Coe had his way, Portland would soon resemble Sutra's garden. A Cancer Cure Dr. W. Blair Bell, distinguished Liverpool surgeon and director of the Liverpool research committee announces in the London Lancet that as a result of 17 years research that he has apparently found a cure for cancer or at least that "the solution of the cancer problem' is within grasp, if not already accomplished." The cure consists in injecting lead, in a colloidal preparation (the metallic lead, not in solution but in fine particles suspended in a liquid) in the blood of the patient. Dr. Bell states that cells of the cancerous tissue attract the lead, which exercises a destructive force, not only in checking furthe rdevelopment of the cancer, but in absorbing the mass. .Lead is held superior to radium or X-Ray treat ment as the lead reaches all parts of the body. Over 200 cases some of them described as "hopeless" have been sue cessfull treated in the past five years with this remedy. Dr. Bell believes there is no specific cause of cancer, but hundreds of causes. "The cancer itself is a specific growth process, he says. I his process is not unlike certain normal processes of growth but lacks the control that checks nor mal cell growth at the right point. In finding a substance lo check this unrestrained growing of cells, a cure is found and lead is such a substance." Dr. Bell's report was prepared with the assistance of 30 scientists who for the last three years have worked constant ly with him and promises to bo the greatest advance in the euro of the mysterious malady since the discovery of radium and its utilization. IECOND WIVE By VIOLET DARE A KKW MI-'K Marie's eyes filled with tears "Can't you, Marie?" Hilly urged, "Vou knew that I still lovo you, Cin:'t you help me to get out of lnarryiiiB Jiinny ?" tfho shook her head. "That's one thing 1 can't do," fho tnld hlin. "Jlul oh, what a cad I otn!

'Without it, Hilly and she could never had landed In such a predicament. He would hnvo faced the necessity of going on with tho wife he already had. nnd oventnally the fascination that Jnnny had for him would have worn off. "Perhaps I wan the one who made the hlggcnt mistake," slm reflected. "If I'd refused to leave him hn couldn't have done any thing about It; things would have straiRhtened themselves out, and we'd have been happy again. Only I couldn't reruse him I didn't want to, when he was o sure that ho loved her!" The morning paper carried an announcement t'mt Caroline Phil lips had returned from her trip to the continent and was nt her town bonne. Mario, longing for U.o sight of n friendly face, went to see her. She found Caroline in the hands of a mapacuso, her hair bound in a towel, her body enveloped in n sheet-like robe. "Marie, darling!" she exclaimed, as Marie come into her dreswlnK rcotn. "I'm so glad to flee you. Tell me nil the news." "There Isn't any," Marie replied Skinny Men (Jain 5 pounds in .10 Davs (Jootl Healthy Flesh Doctors nnd good pharmacists know that Cod Liver Oil ! full of vitatntncfl that make flesh nvato nppetite. builds up the power to rt.-t disease nnd put Bond solid flask on ekfnny men and women, lint It's horrible tnsttnf stuff and every day Tewer people are taking it, for doctors nrn prearrili iiiK nnd people are f.int learning that they ran get better result with MeCoy'a Cod Liver Oil Com- P'1 1 Tablet, which J.

I hear that all isn't going ao well as it might in a certain quarter." She chatted on about her voynge until the masseuse had finished with her, and then turned eagerly to Marie. "What's thla I hear about trouble In the Lindsay home? Hil da Graham said that the Lindsay's were having trouble, and that some one said Mrs. Lindsay was furious ly Jealous of you. I told you not to go out a governess to that child of theirs. Marie, you're never go ing to be. able to support yourself; you're not the kind of woman who can. Vou need a home and a hus band of your own; you've been used to one too long to change now, even though you are so young. Just because Billy's gone off with someone else Is no reason why you shouldn't do the same, is it? Now, why not marry Hob Randall? 1 know that ho adores you; he's told me so himself. Of course, you don't lovo him as you love Billy when you eloped with him, but you can't expect that. You were only seventeen then, and a girl that age Is ciulte different from one twenty-one." But I don't want lo marry Bob" Marie protested. 'Maybe you don't but my dear, I wasn't sure I wanted to marry Dan, either. My first husband and I quarreled endlessly, but 1 could n't convince myself that marriage wasn't always like that, right up to the very minute when the min ister said I pronounce you man and wife! And my dear, were two people ever more happily married than Dan and I? Come now, be sensible. Stay a few days with me hero in town, because I'm so lonely; Dan's off on a business trip, and I can't bear being alone. You will, won't you?' Marie consented. She knew that Caroline would try In every sub tle way that she could think of to promote a wedding between her and Bob Randall, but she felt the need of withdrawing for a few days from the workaday world that she had faced so bravely. She was tired and the trouble with Mrs. Lindsay had frightened hor, because of the Injustice of it, Hho wanted sanctuary. Tho luxury of Caroline's home Impressed her as If she had never known luxury berot. It made liv ing so much simpler to have all tho details looked after by compe tent servants, not to have to think what Bhe was going to cat and get it, never to be too warm nor too ccld, never to get too tired. "Bob's coming back to town to day," Caroline told her one morn ing, glancing up from the letters on her breakfast tray. "Shall I ask him tonight?" Marie hesitated a moment, won dering If she was ready to see him again. She must make her decis ion when they meet again, decide whether or not to marry him. The comfort of her surroundings replied for her. Hardly realizing what she was doing, she nodded. Cnroline smiled as she reached for the telephone on the beside table. Tomorrow "You Darling." AS HELENA TILDEN SCORES AS EVER May Hobao'i is as good as ever Slio was na good last night In "rletena's Buys" s sho was 15 yea i3 tigo w!ian she played here in "Th Itejuvouatiau of Aunt Mary. Many of those who saw hor at tho Heillg last nlsht remembered her first appearance In Salem hi the play iu whicb. she starred (or four teen years hand running. For threo years May Robson has passei up Salem. Last night Sa lemites lea.'ntd that the years have only added to the personality which maVcs her one of the best loved characters on the American stago today. "Telcna Tilden" Is a character part that seems to huvo been created for Muy Hobson. It gives hor au opportunity for using the rare wit, the keen insight, the quickness of perception that makes her the ac'.rest, she is. And what would a Muy Kobbon play be with out a ecei'j in which she could show the audience how excruiat ingly funy she can be when it has had a '"was srop too much." More th'i'i a bit of the success of "Helena's Boys" is due to the able supporting cast. The boys, Boaiisy and, Henry, Stephen Davis and MuurisV Eurico were true to type as was Henry's friend, Mores by Girard, played by Chanter Bat )on. The entire play hinged on the "mo'.lci':i youth' movement for freedom ana self expression nnd Helena's exr(ee of the fallacy oi the new doctrines when carried to extremes. James Truesdall, the man whom Helena loved even when Bhe war- married to the boys' father who was a habitual drunk ard, was alfo a lovable .character and Ann Kimball and Tot Ray mond, the "little girls next door," were also peifect types. "Wellestoy, Mass. Smokes for Wellesley college girls are now forbidden both on and off the campus.

Mrs. Coolidge and Queen uMry are cited by the Retail Drygoods association as good ex amples for 'every woman to follow in the matter of early Christmas shopping. II Harry Plant, matchmaker for the Salem boxing commission, has completed his preliminary card for the Lewle-Ingereoll clash at the armory next Wednesday night. The supporting card will consist of one six round fight and two four round bouts. It was at first thought that tho next card would bo staged on Thanksgiving evening but Plant has moved the date up one day and the card staged in the armory on Wed nesday, November 25. Pranltie Lewis, Salem fighter Is working hard to get into the best of trim for his bout with the Astoria tighter, Lewis is smarting under the two defeats handed him by Ingersoll and Is hoping to get revenge. This will be Inger soU's first appearance in a Sa lem arena although he has fought several main events In other sur rounding towns. Shadow Grotz of Salem Is matched to meet George Hennings or Camas in the six round semi windup. Hennings while not flashy ia a good boy and the Sa lem fighter will find he has unite a bit on his hands. Gretz has been traveling up wart! quite fast recently and will give n good ac count of himself. Hennings is able to absorb lots of punishment and will bo hard to knock out. Matchinuker Plant thinks that the hoys will be able to deliver the goods, however. Another good fight is antici pated when Jimmy Fargo of Sa I em clashes with Kddie Fox of Independence in a four round fight. The two youngsters have speed and can hit hard as shown In a previous battle when Eddie Fox and Fargo fought to a draw. Another good j"-e II miliary has been arranged.
