A Puzzling Law.

Now that the Webb.Kenyon bill, pro-
hibiting the interstate shipment of in
toxicating liquors has become a law the
dry states are puzzled over the effect
the enactment will have upon certain
interests. When President Taft vetoed
the bill he did so with the conviction
that it was in violation of the inter
state commerce clause Of the federal
constitution in that, by its terms, con-
gress delegates to the states the power
of regulating interstate commerce in
liquors, which is invested exclusively in
congress.
There can be no doubt that the con-
stitutionality of the act will be ques-
toned. The president contended that
if the measure was constitutional and
congress could suspend the operation of
the interstate commerce clause in re-
gard to liquor, then congress would
have constitutional power to suspend
interstate commerce in respect to every

All ChristendOm RejOices at Easter

First the lower floor blinked in the
Unaccustomed food of sunshine.
Artemesia hardly knew the rooms,
so accustomed had she become to their
peculiar half light. The gloomy old
parlor became n cheerful apartment,
and when Artemesia saw dust on the
ancient square piano she few vigor-
ously around and banished 1t.
Upstairs the sunshine and fresh air
revealed new house to Artemesia.

came over her face.
1t had ceased to be spring that day
when Jack Young went away without

ed suddenly, and another line disap-
peared from her forehead.
After that day Artemesla Lee kept
the shutters of her house wide open.
Passersby saw it and marveled and
said that Artemesia Lee was getting
some sense, after all Hanna Ford
noticed 1t, too, and queer little smile
curled the corners of her pleasant
mouth.
One day Josephine Ford ventured
into Artemesias parlor and played
popular tunes upon the tinkling piano.
Seems good to hear it once more"
sighed Artemesia who had not played
for many years.
"Why don't you play some, Arlene
sia?" asked pretty Josephine. Ma
says you used to be a grand player"
Artemesia flushed prettily. 81 be-

sia. ~ think I've got some lovely lace

Josephine hugged her delightedly,
and together they set off to choose a
hat frame. Artemesia forgot her own
troubles and the latent discomfort that
had gnawed at her life.
She grew merry over the secrecy OF
the shopping, for this was to be sur
prise to Josephines mother,
Artemesla presented Josephine with
a pair of new gloves, and the young
girls delight was very sweet to the
older woman. Artemesia Lee forgot
herself while she sewed on the new
hat, which turned out so successful
that she made one for herself, a shady
brown affair that matched her soft
eyes.
