Talk has en- abled movies to give more telling inter- pretations than with the old method. In silent pictures a doubtful woman—or, rather, I should say a lady of doubtful morals—was characterized by placing a cigarette in her hand, a whisky decan- ter on the buffet and a neglige of more transparency that taste on the torso. But, sad at it may seem, some of our nicer women have taken to these tac- tics.

When leader holds the ace and king of 2 suit and others it is well to lead the king, as it will most likely take the ik aba give you the opportunity of looking_at dummy hand at the same time. Leader should always remember that while it is often tempting to lead low from an ace in a suit declaration when partner has not bid, this lead will give your partner false information and in the long run is a losing lead. If there is no other desirable lead in your hand and you hold the ace of a suit and several smail cards of the same suit, lead the ace, as you may catch a singleton king, whith would have been a winner had you led low from the ace and several small ones. Another conventional lead against a suit declaration when partner has not bid, which is a very goad one, is that of an ace when holding ace and king of the same suit only. By the lead of the ace first and then the king, or what is known as leading high and then low, you tell your partner by such a lead | that you have no more of that suit. That same rule of high and low applies to the lead of an ace and then the deuce or any small card, which must be_the leader’s lowest of that suit. ‘When it comes to remembering the is well worth committing to memory |and will take care of the leads of the high cards when leading against a_suit bid when your partner has not bid: ‘The ace is led from—If a singleton, ace, king or any other doubleton head- ed by ace.

Sometimes there are many more than at other times, and some are quite large. Will cream help these?

I am afraid to pick them off because they are so near my eves.| Could weak eyes cause them? I wear | glasses for close work, but my vision ' is good. T Answer—From your description I! judge that the eruptions are white- | heads. They usually appear about the eyes, and are like blackheads. excepi, that they are just under the outer layer of skin, and, being covered thus. been directed toward preventing them from being torn up by the carelessness | of persons driving their horses over | them.

And when at last they have run down I'm in no mood to buy: I tell them, with an angry frown, to spread their wings and fly. But you come up and say at once you have a pup for sale, and so, although I am a dunce, I hand you out the kale.” “High pressure sales- men” seem to me like flukes and false alarms, when they come to my banyan tree and talk off both my arms.

A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT PLUMMER. IF this Congress is called upon to de- cide whether the Philippine Is- lands are to be granted their inde- pendence—and it looks now as if it will—a great deal will be heard about Henry Allen Cooper. Cooper is the tall, frock-coated Rep- resentative from first came to Washington to serve in the Fifty- 2 third Congress back ., in 1893. His hair and beard are snowwhite now, for he has become the oldest member in the House in point of service as well as one of the oldest in point of He has served in every Congress but one since 1893. Cooper’s physical ap- pearance, along with his dignified car- riage, gives him a distinction that al- ways commands attention when he en- ters debate. And since Philippine in- dependence lies so close to his heart, he looms as an important figure in the | fotthcoming struggle. 1 - | Cooper’s interest in the Filipino's | fight for independence dates back to a | He had just | come from a committee meeting, called | to decide whether the islands were ready for an elected House of Represent- | atives. For long hours he had sat listening to sweeping condemnations of all Filipinos as savages and barbarians. | Strolling down Pennsylvania avenue from the Capitol on his way home, he paused in front of a book shop. Hi attracted by the colorful jacket of a novellc in the window, and asked to see it. It was Dr. Jose Rizal's “Noll Me ‘Tangere,” the novel which first awak- ened in the Pilipino’s soul a desire for freedom from Spain. He bought the book, took it home, and read it at one sitting. The next day Cooper took the floor of the House. He said Rizal's poem, “My Last Farewell,” written just before a Filipino was shot by the Spaniards for high treason. And he concluded his speech with an impassioned plea for the Filipino, which was both eloquent and convincing. . For more than a week he crusaded. Craft as well as oratorical fervor marked his fight. He refused the Speaker’s request to name conferees for a joint committee, although the House had passed the resolution granting a Philippine House of Representatives. He knew of the Senate opposition, and was aware that the chamber which first submitted these names would lose possession of the bill. In thus holding out, he kept the question alive, finally winning a favorable joint committee re- port by the slim majority of two. Cooper has kept a keen eye on de- velopments in the most recent move for Philippine independence.

Servant’s Mistake Leads to Discovery Darrox, Ga—A mistake made by her servant one day, proved to be a bless- ing in disguise for Miss Lilian W. Carter, 4 South Thornton Avenue. A grocery order was forgotten, and this error sent Miss Carter to her pantry shelf, where she found the way to buoyant, vigorous health. In her own words, the story goes as follows: T went on using eaffein beverages, though besieged by indigestion and assailed by headaches, for I hypno- tized myself into thinking other causes were responsible for these ills. T even believed caffein drinks would prevent my headaches. . . Day of freedom comes 4¢One day my servant neglected the grocery order. It was a half-holiday in town and every store was closed. Then I remembered a package of Pos- tum, bought at the suggestion of a friend, but never used. T made myself a cup—and drained it to the last am- ber drop. Delicious! ““The final result: vanished head- aches, improved digestion, a buoyant sensation not felt in years, and above all, eolor—bright eves.”’ Make this discovery yourself Thousands of men and women go on, year after year, suffering fmml over-wrought nerves and impaired di- gestion, when so often good health is just around the corner—when so often a simple diet change might bring relief from their‘ills.
