King, or King, Jack and one other,
are more than Offset by the instances
in which either the King is found
solus in the fourth hand, or in which,
even if his royal highness be guarded,
the fnesse costs trick, because an ad-
verse ruff is gotten in before another
trump lead. If the play be not
trick loser on the face it must be sound,
since the information it affords as to
number of trumps both when the fin
esse is made and refused, is necessarily
most valuable and serviceable. An OBJ
lection has been raised to it that it CON
ficts with the case of holding only the
Ace and Queen. The best players of
to-day do not refuse the finesse with
the two honors only, unless the card
led by the partner shows the presence
of both King and Jack. In this case
the fnesse would. Of course, be de-
clined; but a good partner would not
be confused. as he would know that
his nine or ten led (the only cards
which indicate both King and jack

and two others in suit would play

The reasoning OF Mr.. Work seems
very plausible, but here comes Beverly
Smith in the Baltimore Herald, with a
much simpler solution Of the difficulty,
and more informatory play. THE
Walbrook team OF Baltimore has adopt

notes, in his sixth edition If Whist

up to that time, any variation in the
manner Of handling the major tenace.
Or, in other words, that the play should
be any other than that in use for plain

1t is pretty generally understood by
women who have achieved choice pearl
rings that while clear, pure water does
not injure the gem, soap and water will
soon affect their lustre and color, and
in time will cause them to peel, or shed
an outer coat. This crumbling, how
ever, takes place even when the gems
are most carefully treated, and when
the tendency is noted the ring or
brooch or necklace should be promptly
taken to a jeweler. The course of
treatment often prescribed by that au-
thority is that of the rest cure. Put it
aside in its box, carefully closed from
light and air, and few weeks or posi-
bly, month or two of this lying fallow
will often entirely restore the original
beauty and health of the gem.
Here are some directions about curl
ing feathers: When you come in, if
the day is damp, hold your hat over
an open fire and shake it lightly, TAX
ing care that it is not so close to the
blaze that the plumes will scorch If
it is in particularly bad shape, throw a
handful of salt on the fire and hold the
chapeau over it as it burns. If this
eXpedient fails to restore curl to the
tips, the only thing TO do is to take a
butter knife and curl each fibre of the
feathers separately by drawing them
over the blunt edge of the knife. Be
fore you are half through with one you
will have acquired the knack of curl
ing them just enough and in the right
place. The process is tedious, to be
sure, but wonderful will be the result,
and if you have a little leisure time it
will pay you to try. MARTHA.

UNIFORMITY OF METHOD.

1t is a question if one player in ten
appreciates the great advantage pos
sessed by uniformity In methods.
In the writer's opinion, it is vastly
more important that a player should
be able to depend upon his partner al
ways to meet similar developments, in
such way as to furnish certain defin-
tie information each time, than it is
that trick should be saved occasion
ally through variableness in play.
Take for example one of the second
finland plays covered in an article in
these columns last winter, in which, for
uniformity's sake, players were advised
to cover honors with honors, only when
holding just two cards of the suit, or,
perfect fourchette, the exception being
that in case of Queen, led, one should
cover holding King, 10 and one low.
The advantage of the method thus
outlined was clearly illustrated during
the play of one of the deals at the AM
erican Whist Club few evenings ago,
on which the opening was the Knave Of
Hearts. Second-in-hand holding Queen,
8, Z, covered; third hand won with
King led Ace and followed with a low
Heart. Original fourth hand, holding
four trumps, and but two low Hearts,
passed the third round, and the opener
won with 10. Had fourth hand been
able to rely in second-in-hand not to
cover, unless he held a perfect four
Ghetto, or only two in salt, he could
have passed the third round of Hearts
with the absolute assurance that his
partner could win the trick, barring a
ruff by the opener. Whereas, being
somewhat in doubt, he played as his
holding warranted, but lost a trick, as
it developed that original second-in-
hand also held four trumps, one of
which fell with one of fourth hands,
to the last trick of the deal.
Second-in-hand argued that a trick
might often be lost by refusing to cover
in such cases. Very true, but was not
trick lost in this instance. which
might easily have been saved had
fourth hand been able to rely upon his
partner for that uniform information
which the method advocated assures?
AS a general thing it is not the oc-
casional tricks won or lost. through
individual choice of plays under similar
conditions, which decides games or
matches, for or against any pair to
play as partners.
That which affects the results to a
far greater degree is the extent to
which each member of the co-partner-
ship can depend upon the other for pos
tive or negative information, when the
development is similar to one that has
arisen at previous sitting.
