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.

The morning paper carried an
announcement t'mt Caroline Phil

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,

But I'm sure there la. I hear
that all isn't going ao well as it

chatted on about her voynge until
the masseuse had finished with
her, and then turned eagerly to
Marie. "What's thla I hear about

da Graham said that the Lindsay's
were having trouble, and that some

to go out a governess to that child

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.

For threo years May Robson has

which maVcs her one of the best

stago today.
"Telcna Tilden" Is a character

created for Muy Hobson. It gives

rare wit, the keen insight, the

show the audience how excruiat

More th'i'i a bit of the success
of "Helena's Boys" is due to the
able supporting cast. The boys,

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.
