lIshed a new Constitution Which we
are now laboriously trying to amend
so as to get It back to the Constitu-
ton that for a hundred years every
body, Including the Supreme court,
thought IL to be. When ] was presi
dent, we passed National Workmens
Compensation act. Under It a rail-
way man named Howard, think, was
killed in Tennessee, and his widow
sued for damages. Congress had
done all It could to provide the right,
but the court stepped in and decreed
that congress had failed. Three of the
judges took the extreme position that
there was no way in which congress
could secure the helpless widow and
children against suffering, and that
the mans blood and the blood OF all
similar men when spilled should for
ever cry aloud in vain for justice.
This seems a strong statement, but
1t is far less strong than the actual
facts; and have difficulty in making
the statement with any degree OF
modification. The nine justices Of the
Supreme court on this question split
into five fragments. One man, ex.
Justice Moody, in his opinion stated
the case in its broadest way and de-
manded justice for Howard, on
grounds that would have meant that
in all similar cases thereafter justice
and not injustice should be done. Yet

The Law and tho state.


Under our federal system the rem
ody for a wrong such as Abraham
Lincoln described is dificult. But
the remedy is not difficult in state.
What the Supreme court Of the ma,
tion decides to bo law binds both the
national and the stnte courts and all
the people within the boundaries, OF
the nation. Bnt the decision OF a
state court on constitutional ques-
ton should be subject to revision by
the people Of the state. Again and
again in the past justice has been
scandalously obstructed by state
courts declaring state laws in con-
flict with the Federal Constitution,
although the Supreme court OF the ma
tion had even decided In contrary
sense. When the supreme court OF
the state declares given statute un-
constitutional because In conflict with
the state or the National Constitution,
Its opinion should be subject to re-
vision by the people themselves.
Such an opinion ought always to be
treated with great respect by the peo-
pie, and unquestionably In the major
ny OF cases would be accepted and
followed by them. But actual ex-

Joke on the Doctor.

The physicians in Mankato had
agreed that during their Chautauqua
assembly they would employ a call
boy, and each was to pay his share
of the expense. This boy was to call
any doctor who was wanted, without
disturbing the speaker, as it was en-
barrassing to him and looked as If
they were doing it to advertise with
out expense. So 1t all went we'll until
the afternoon when Strickland w. GIL
Hand spoke. AS he was talking away
a certain doctor had call from the
platform, and he walked out rather
ostentatiously. Some Of the people
who knew of the arrangement laughed
or snickered, and the speaker got it.
He said: Don't laugh, folks. That is
the way my brother got his start"

mental strain is even greater than the

fabulous salaries are not fabulous.
Before going into details let us de-
fine a star-the ball players defini-
ton:
"A star is any player who, through
individual excellence, achieves a repu-
tation for brilliant work, thus attract
ing fans to the park to see him play"
He is star only so long as his per
formances stand out. He is paid the
salary of star as long as his reputa-
ton brings fans to the stands and
money to the box office. The day that
sees the waning of his sensationalism
also sees the waning of his salary

BANISHING THE YELLOW SKIN.

ually disclose a fresh, new, white one,
Such preparations cannot be made
very we'll at home 1t Is a dangerous
procedure when attempted by expe-'
rienced hands. and is best done by a
professional. The frequent applica-
tions of lemon juice at night after
bath in bran-water will do wonders
with moderately yellow skins.
Sometimes poor soap causes the
hands to be red. 1t really seems as II
the hands tire of one kind of soap,
and rebel against it's use. Immedi-
ately after bathing the hands spread
thickly with cosmetic jelly or lotion
When retiring for the night, after
using the lotion. sprinkle thickly with
talcum. Don't wear tight collars or
tight corsets-they will always make
the hands red, and the tight collars
will almost ruin the skin of the neck.
When bathing use only tepid water,
never hot nor cold, which invariably
stimulates the blood vessels.

BRAssIERE is A BLESSING
Keeps the Figure Looking Trim Above
the Waist, Highly Desirable
Effect.

One doesn't have to be uncomtUrt-
able in these enlightened days Of the
brassieres which support the bust,
keeps the figure looking trim above
the belt, while below that may be
worn hip restrainers, meaning stays,
which have only few flexible whale
bones which you'll scarcely know are
present. If you don't care to buy
ready-made a brassiere that is all lace
insertion and satin ribbons, you may
make one for yourself by using as
pattern the upper half Of tight-ht-
ting underwaisS or corset cover, the
old-fashioned garment which is the
ugliest thing imaginable, but which
still is lurking in the wardrobe OF
nearly every middle-aged woman.
Make the brassiere of fine lawn,
French dimity or batiste, fasten 1t
over the shoulders with bands of hand
embroidered lingerie material and
edge it all round with lace, but don't
run ribbons through beading because
that sort of frivolity has gone out of
date and whatever happens, you don't
want to be behind the times. Use sat
in flowers instead. Put a fine row OF
tiny rosebuds across one shoulder or
little cluster of forget-me-nots over
the band where the fronts close and
your brassiere will look 80 fascinat'
ing hat you'll enjoy putting 1t on.
