WENT BACK TO THE RANKS
Sergeant Johnny Poe Asked to Be Re-
duced to a Private,

When Johnny Poe. ex-Princeton foot

ber of the family to which Edgar Allan
Poe. the poet, belonged, was killed In
while serving as a private in the Brit
/ lsh Black Watch regiment, officers of
the United States marine corps began
to recall incidents in Poe's career with
the American marines.
In 1903. when war between the
United States and Colombia over the
Panama canal strip threatened. Poe.
by authority Of the then secretary of
the navy. John d. Long. enlisted with
the ''sea soldiers" to serve during the
war. If war should not result he was
to be discharged for excellent soldier
though lie was he could not bear the
''rigOrs'' of peaceful campaign.
Captain Snedley D. Butler appointed
Poe a sergeant in his machine gun
company. an appointment not at all to
the adventnrer's liking So he went to
Colonel Tittleton ". T. Waller and
asked to be reduced to private
Il don't think I'm capable Of holding
the rank Of sergeant in the United
States marine corps" he told Colonel
Waller.
This WAS an unusual case. and the
colonel wanted to know why Poe con-
sidered himself not lifted to hold the
rank.

cradle military training" Poe replied.

corps long enough to be sergeant and

Colonel Waller smiled. why. Poe"
he said, "a number Of second lieuten-
ants, only recently commissioned. have
just joined us. and no one expects
them to know everything there is to
know"
That's all right colonel" Poe re-
piled quickly. "No one expects a Sec
ond lieutenant to know anything, but
they do expect whole lot from SER
Geant."
Poe was reduced to private and was
put in charge of the mule corral job

After the War.

BY the fourth of March next
the war in Europe will doubtless
be at or nearing its end. Tht
terms of peace which the bellig
erents may secure will have lit
tie or no Importance to the Uni
ted States, but the manner il
which the battling nations viii
seek to recoup themselves for the
losses of the war will be of tran
scendent consequence to this
country.
It is evident that the exhaust
ed peoples of Europe cannot re-
habilitate themselves from with
in. There is no national osteop.
athy which will enable them tC
utilize their own internal powers
for their economic recuperation.
They will be compelled to look a.
broad for the means of recovery,
they will have to seek new AM
more extended fields of trade and
commercial activity, they will
have to turn to other and distant
markets where money has moi
been burned in battle and where
natural demands will afford ar
outlet for the products of factor
les and fields which will again be
filled with the men who have
lined the trenches.
The tremendous activities now
being expended upon the battle
field will then be transferred tC
industrial pursuits and a flood OF
products. feverishy fabricated,

markets the best Of which is to
be found in the United States.
Not only at our own ports, but in
every port of the world, we shall
be confronted with a competition
such as no one has ever seen. To
meet these conditions will re-
qu;ro constructive craftsmanship
of the highest order and legisla-
tion of the most far seeing char
acUer. Tariff revision, banking
legislation, shipping laws, and all
kinds of protective ard prophetic
administration will be needed.
For such a task the Democratic
party is wholly unsuited. Its
parochial and sectional outlook,
it's selfish character, it's untutored
leadership render it unable tc
cope with the problems which
will arise after the war. To put

will be upon US when the war is

Dropsy,


Dropsy is not a disease, but
symptom. Any disorder that
? causes the blood to become i'm
pOverished and watery and at
the same time to flow through
the veins with increased pressure
can cause dropSy. For that rea-
son it is often associated with
serious forms Of heart or kidney
disease. When dropsy is the re-
suit of Bright's disease it is be-
I, cause the kidneys are no longer

h Dropsy that arises from heart
; troubles is worse at night and
; after exertion. Exactly the con-
b trary is true of the dropsy caus-
; ed by kidney trouble, which is
, more marked in the morning.
Sometimes the patient suffers
from both heart and kidney trou-

symptom disappears as the de-
bility passes away. Such cases
should be treated with tonics
and resi- and plenty of fresh air.

CANCER CURE
Is FAILURE
Head Of Columbia Research
Fund Reports Test Made
on Rats and Guinea Pigs.

New York, Dec. 20-After ex-
haustive tests upon rats, mice and
guinea pigs, the use of radium as a
cure for cancer and tumors has been
found to be a failure, according to the
annual report of DR.. Francis Carter
Wood, head of the Croker cancer re-
search fund of Columbia university,
made public tonight. For cases on
which operation is not possible,
radium is successful as a palliative
only, the report states.
TT is unquestionably possible to
pro,ong lie in a few instances" DR.,
Wood says, and to make the
patients more comfortable by the
iudioious and intelligent employment
Of larger quantities of radium. On
the other hand it is equally certain
that the use of small quantities, say
