EASTER AND EASTER LILIES,

Tall, stately Easter Lilies are most
effective for church or window decora-
ton. For the table, the mantle, or
other places in the home, the new
dwarf Lilies are preferable. Azaleas
are better and cheaper this year than
ever before. Hyacinths, Tulips, Prim-
roses, Genistas, Spireas, and many
other beautiful plants are suitable as
Easter gifts, and are reasonable in
price. There will be no increase in

subcommittee of the Senate District commit
tee today. The lie was passed to a minister
and reprimand for sneering was admins
tered to members of the audience by priest.
1t was by all means the most exciting day
since the hearings began week ago
The hearing went along in a tame sort of
way during the first couple of hours, the argu-
ments presented being largely repetitions Of
those gone over before. But it livened up
when Father Meagher of St. Dominic's Catho-
lie Church in Southwest Washington
expressed his opposition to a change in the
excise laws.
'Thirty-four proprietors of barrooms in
the southwest section attended my church,"
he remarked. II wish you would compare
them with any other similar men in business
here, in cleanliness of life and ordinary
decency."
