VANISHING RIGHTS
Of STATES POINTED
BY JAS. NJ. BECK
JAMES M. BECK, EMINENT JURIST,
DEALS WITH CONSTITUTIONS
AL DANGERS

THE Vanishing Rights OF State"
126-page volume, the product of
James NJ. Beck, late Solicitor Gen.
eral Of the United States, published
by George H. Doran Company, New
York, is timely work devoted to
forceful discussion of the rapid de-
struction of the reserved rights Of
the sovereign States. A volume Of
this valuable contribution to con-
temporary literature, has been re-
ceived by the Gateway.
Basing his argument on an Incl
dent Of contemporary politics, which
may soon develop into Constitu-
tional crisis, Mr. Beck challenges the
power Of the Senate to nullify the
action of a sovereign State by re-
fusing to seat an elected Senator.
Speaking of the author, the North
American Review says: "Mr. Beck
possesses a transcerdental legal
mind-a legal mind raised to the nth
power It is not too much to say that
his is the voice most truly express
i've of sane, conservative, yet forward
looking America"
The cases selected for illustration
of what the author points as a grad
ual encroachment upon constitution
al powers, offer a parallel to the his
torical episode of ohm Wilkes and his
battle for the right of the people to
select their own representatives in
the British House Of Commons in
opposition to George III.
Mr.. Beck calls to his aid a brief
review Of those troubulous times
antedating the secession of the Brit
ish Colonies in America and the final
birth of the United States. These re-
views are notable for their clarity
brevity yet completeness in sustain
ing the case he seeks to make out.
1t is a work that should be widely
read by young and old both for it's
value as a warning Of what appears
to be an encroaching menace.

Crime and Punishment

We were aroused one morning In
early summer, writes a subscriber, by
great cutlery among the birds, par
ticularly by the harsh cry of the blue
jay. On going out to learn the cause
of the disturbance we found numbers
of birds flying around an oriole nest
which we had been watching with
great deal of interest. The Jay birds
were flying about in much excitement
and Several distressed little orioles
were bravely fighting them. A closer
view revealed a jay bird with his
head caught in the nest In trying to
rob it he had made himself prisoner
and neither his own efforts nor those
of his companions could free him.
Nearly all day he struggled and the
other birds flew unhappily about, but
gradually his efforts grew feebler until
they ceased entirely and he was left
alone. OF course, the nest was ruined,
but until far into the winter he hung
there high in the air, an object lesson
to all thieves.-Youth's Companion.

THE Sugar Maple Tree"

Among these dear old Garrett county
hills,
Where deep and mighty forests still
remain,
Where natures scene my soul with
rapture fills,
Where flowers bloom and birds sing
their refrain
IT'S here the Maple, sturdy, strong
Lifts up its towering branches to-
wards the sky.
At fall of year, or when the leaves
unfold,
1t lends a scene of pleasure to my eye.
Thou mighty Maple, strong, and yet
so kind;
Full many squirrel has sought thy
trunk for room
To hide its treasure, lest the winter
find
1t unprepared to meet those days of
gloom.
Full many a bird has built its tiny
nest
Among thy boughs, protected by thy
green,
And many weary beast enjoyed
rest +;
Within the tranquil shade of thy thick
screen.
Each year if we thy rugged trunk but
tap,
Thou dost respond in manner truly
kind,
And givest unto US thy blood, thy sap,
A sweet, delicious present to mankind.
In places where we can not sow nor
reap,
Where in the sod the ploughshare is
not known,
Because of mighty rocks and hillsides
steep,
For centuries you here have thrived
and grown.
Yea, thou art wonderful, but who
made thee?
Thou whom each human being ought
to love,
Thy branches, leaves, trunk, roots
the perfect tree,
All owe their being to the God above.
Then why do woodmen seek thy life
to take
And slaughter thee in such a shame
full way?
A Drawer heart than mine could not
but ache
To see these Maple forests giving
way.
Then, woodmen, spare this tree, yea
let it stand,
Withhold thy axe, strike not a single
blow.
This ruler of wild, mountainous
land
Shall still be king, so let him live and
grow

Weak Character May
Haze Jau of Steel

The man with a weak chin Is not
necessarily a man with a weak char
acter. Such a person may even have
bulldoggish qualities, medical scien-
lists tell US, and in all probability his
lack of chin was caused by the way
he was fed at birth. Naturally fed
babies stand a better chance Of de-
veloping strong jaws than the arti-
ficially fed.
People with receding or weak chins
have often suffered from ricketts, in
childhood, and hardly anyone needs to
be reminded nowadays Of the relation
between a diet deficient in vitamlnes
and unsatisfactory bone formation.
Many parents, when they fear that
their children's chins are not going
to be of the best, consult q dentist,
who may suggest that the child shall
wear in the mouth an apparatus for
stretching the Jaw. This treatment
continues for months, sometimes
years sqT'9si 's ,sss;;ssasia.ss4'~'sS

There is something else Morse
said, the Calendar Girl"
Above a cot in a kind of alcove hung
colored crayon sketch. Willis glanced
at it with swimming eyes.
NO" he said resolutely.
why not?" urged Morse. "You
know it was made for that rich manu-
facturer, Payne, who Is so proud of
his daughter He has been at the
Office after the original crayon."
at is mine; money will not buy It,"
said Willis sententiously and bowed
his visitor from the room.
Buy it-as soon would he sell his
soul In his poetic way the work on
that picture, taken from an oil paint
ing. had been the inspiration of his
recent life.
Willis had the first full meal OF
weeks that day, for he had money now.
The rescue was too late, however. lie
awoke the next morning in burning
fever.
There was only the woman in charge
of the apartments to nurse him. That
afternoon a stylish automobile drove
up. A young lady alighted. She was
the original of the Calendar Girl.
When she knocked at the door of the
artists room the old woman met her.
"He has been going on all day that
way" she said
Miss Elinor Payne had come, hop
ing to prevail upon Willis to sell her
the picture. But now-she stood in
strange maze listening to the ceaseless
babble of his parched lips.
His CLASSY eyes were fixed upon the
picture. The lone burden Of his mind
had given way. In poetry. in wild
passionate appeal he was telling that
mute companion of his lonely life the
secret of his life-how he adored the
lovely face his art had perpetuated.
Never had the fair, innocent girl
been so moved. Tears were in her eyes
as she noted the wretchedness Of this
poor soul, whose delicate face showed
the lineaments of genius.
Everything must be done to save 80
precious a life" she told the woman.
Then day after day for week some
Irresistible influence drew her to the
place which her money transformed
into a haven Of comfort
One day she came when the mourn
full eyes Of the artist were once more
calm and clear. The crayon was gone
from its accustomed place. He handed
it to her done up in paper.
IT have learned Of all your kind
ness" he said simply.
.You wish me to take the picture?'
she asked.
ut is yours. I have seen you In
reality-there is more lasting por-
traiture in my heart"
He spoke with the desperation and
disappointment Of a fitting spirit
"You must live" she cried impul-
sively, reading the oracle aright-"for
my sake-will you not?'
His soulful eyes strove to read the
secret of that beautiful face. To Elinor
he was as a being above the common.
She flushed. The admiration of his
glance thrilled her.
you must let me drive you each day
till you get WE'LL" she said.
And that was the beginning of the
beautiful end that saw two harmoni-
Gus souls joined in undying love and
low
