if the enemy opens suit and the Sec
ond-hand player holds the first trick,
his partner renouncing, what are the
chances of his being strong in trumps?
One can answer this question best by
recalling to the mind the fact that the
partners hand was originally divided
into three plain suits and trumps. The
discard made by the partner is, how
ever, in many ways more important
than the question of the number OF
trumps that are held by either ones
self or ones partner. OF course, a very
low discard may imply a. willingness
on his part to be forced, though this
does not always follow. The chief
point for consideration is, what will
he be likely to lead after the force?
In all probability the third suit, his
discard having indicated weakness in
the second. This is the important feat
ure of the play that is generally over
looked. Unless one can give his part
ner good support in the suit that he is
most likely to open, it will be seen at
once that the proposition to force him
requires considerable qualifications.
Suppose the partner has strength in his
declared suit. with the chances good
that he is fairly strong in trumps.
II stands to reason that it is likely to
prove of greater advantage to lead his
suit or even to lead the trump than 70

VEIL WEARING
IN COLD WEATHER.

When cold weather approaches most
women think it necessary to guard their
compilations from the wind and cold
by the wearing of a veil. I am not
much of a believer in the protecting
qualities of the veil, and. except in
very cold weather, think the skin Is bet
ter without than with one. Wells be-
come dusty and dirty so soon that they
are constant menace to the health OF
the skin. In two or three wearings .
veil becomes covered with dust, that
sooner or later comes in contact with
the skin! The result Is. in nine cases
out of ten. the formation of black
heads.
AT the north it is sometimes neces-
sary TO wear veil in cold weather.
but when worn it should be a white
lace one. The thin, white spotted at
fairs are no protection from the cold.
The barege wells which we wore when
l was girl are the most effective
protection against the wind. These
may be washed out when they have
been worn few times, and the inn
purities cast off by the pores or the
skin and the dust gathered in their
meshes will be thoroughly removed.
In ordinary weather, however. the
friction of the air coming In contact
with the skin is good for ii.
Where the wearing of a veil has
brought about the growth of black
heads, which are nothing moro than
bits of dirt lodged in the pores open
ed under the veil to throw on waste
matter and perspiration, prompt
measures should be taken for their re-
moval.
The treatment for black heads Ia
very simple. First discard the veil;
there is no chance for a cure unless
the cause is removed. Every niyfft
the face should be washed in pure
Spanish olive oil soap with Turkish
toweling wash cloth. After that it
should be anointed with a good re-
firing cream. In the morning the
cream should be washed of in warm
water with the olive oil soap, after
which few drops of some pure face
lotion should be applied to close the
pores before going into the open air.
If this treatment is kept up. the skin
will remain smooth and soft all win,
ter without the use Of veil. Instead
of putting on veil, brush a little
pure rice powder over the skin before
going out.
Where the black heads have grown
quite large II is sometimes necessary
to press them out. Only in extreme
cases should a watch key be used. for.
this purpose. and then the bruised
skin about the blemish should Be
quickly covered with a retiring
cream. The best time to press out
the black heads is at night when the
face is washed for retiring This
gives the bruised surface a chance to
heal before 1t is again exposed 70 the
open air.

AN OPENING LEAD-SECOND HAND
PLAY-DON'T PLAY FALSE CARDS.
WHAT ONE SHOULD DO EARLY IN
THE RAND-A FREAK DEAL.
New York.
An Opening Lead.


There is, among good players, a
wide divergence of opinion in respect
to the opening. Those of the old school
prefer to open a four-card suit with
enc honor, rather than with Jack or
10 of short suit. 1t depends largely
upon trump strength as. to which is
likely to be better. With four trumps,
it is usually considered best to open
your suit if there is any probability
OF its being established. With less
than four very many would open
short from Jack, one; or Jack, ten,
one; or ten, one; or ten, nine, one,
rather than open four-card suit with
but one honor.
The following hand is sent by cor
respondent who asks for an expression
OF opinion from whist players general
ly as to the opening

We would open with the Hearts
Jack, but more conservative players
would doubtless show the Diamond
suit first; still others would play two
rounds of Observation-Disclosures
Whist Player.
We would open with the Diamond
Queen, and if that went round (as it
probably would, continue with the
Club 8. Partner would infer a strong
suit and short one with weak trumps,
and the responsibility of deciding the
tactics to be adopted by the joint
hands would devolve upon him.

Second Hand Play.

If the rules for the opening or orig
inal lead are understood, second hand
play is very simple matter 1t re-
duces itself practically to this: When
a small card is led, and you have at
second hand high card combination
from which you would open high if
you had the lead, then you SHOULD
play in one of these high cards at sec
ond hand. For instance, if you have

Queen, Jack and one small, you would
lead the Queen, and if you are second
hand you must follow with the Jack
OH a small card led-not with the
Queen, mind you, but with the Jack,
in accordance with the rule that you
should in this situation play the low
est card of a sequence. If, however,
you have Queen, Jack and two or more
small, you would lead a small ont
generally, and at second hand you
play in a small one Of course, if a
high card is led, second hand plays
low if ne cannot or does not want to
win or head the trick.-E. c. Howell.
Don't play false cards with a good
partner.-Morgan.
What One should Do Early in the
Hand.
A critical question, and one that is
ever ready for debate is, What one
should do early in the hand if the part
ner renounces in the opponents suit?
Some will say, on regaining the lead,
force him at once if you are strong
in trumps.' Although this answer is
correct in certain conditions of the
game, the situation must be carefully
considered before one decides that such
conditions are fulfilled.
The first point for consideration Is,

Ethel Barrymore it was who first
