Frequent reports have attributed
to him a desire to enter railroading,

either John or President Coolidge,
have represented him rs seeking IN
opening in the radio business. y.

In the same conversation he took
occasion to deny that he was be-

FAILURE TO DRAW TRUMPS
AT THE RIGHT TIME
::::!M!.::!;.M!!!:,WENfW9RIIH#:

The Bidding: In this illustration,
South opens with one heart. West
passes. North bids no-trump to in
form his partner that he does not
hold normal support in hearts. East
passes. On the second round, South
bids two hearts and all pass.
Deciding the Play: West leads the
spade Jack. East wins two tricks in
spades and then leads the 6 of hearts
which is won in the dummy with the
heart Jack. East wins two tricks in
spades and then leads the 6 Of hearts
which is won in the dummy with the
heart Jack. What suit should Declar-
er now play from the Dummy?
The Error: Declarer in order to
finesse plays the diamond Queen from
Dummy. West captures it with the
diamond King and leads the 8 Of
spades which is captured by East who
trumps it with the Of hearts. East
plays the of spades and West cap
lures the trick by trumping with the
3 Of hearts. After that, Declarer
wins the remaining tricks and makes
the contract. However, game has
been sacrificed by the failure to draw
trumps Immediately.
The Correct Method: Upon the ex-
posture Of the dummy, Declarer pans
his campaign. He bears In mind that
delay in drawing trumps may be fatal
as far as game is concerned. He Is
not satisfied to make his contract: he
strives to capture the additional tricks
which will make his effort worth
while. He looks for an established
suit and finding that he has such
suit-clubsl-draws trumps immeddi-
ately, exhausting opponent Of them.
After that he wins enough club tricks
to make the game. This Is quito
simple. vet an evening seldom passes
at the bridge table when some player
does not fail to draw trumps inn

stancesl

YOUR
CHILDREN
BY MueR Roberts Barton
@lo20 by NEA. Servicc.Inc.

A woman with nervous high
strung little girl was told by the spe-
cialist to whom she had turned for
aid: There isn't much the matter
with her except that she isn't old
enough to endure emotion. Keep her
quiet and away from excitement"
Old enough to endure emotion!
Has it occurred to the rank and
file Of us that we must be "old
enough to stand sorrow or happi-
ness without bad results?
Well, we do - and not only old
enough in years but old enough in
make up; for age does not always
depend upon the length of time
we have lived.
People Of twenty-five or thirty
or even more may be younger in
thought and action than twelve
year-old child. We are pleased to
call such people morons, I believe,
but II we were to go into 1t intelli-
gently there are few real morons in
the world.
To 60 back to the doctors's dag
nosis-that the little girl was not
"old enough" to endure emotion
there Is another side to 1t.
Has 1t been our habit to think OF
emotion. outside Of sorrow Of course,
as something that must be endured?
Does happiness have to be endured?
Or love? Or intense interest? Or
excitement?
Does hate, or jealousy, or anger
have to be endured by the person
who generates it as well as the per-
son against whom it is directed?
The answer to all and each Of these
Is Eyes"
Happiness wears us out, SO does
love, excitement, hate. anger - any
thing and everything that puts q
strain on the nervous system whether
the sensation be pleasant or the re-
verse.
That Is why children should lead
lives as regular, uneventful. and free
from emotional strain as possible.
OF course. there is, q difference in
children. Some are more SUSCEPTIBLE
to the influence Of certain events
than others.
Tho thing to do Is to study your
ichildfen: Il you have one who seems
to tire after such mild excitement a
. movie or evsn reading q brillian,
story, ! should divert his, or her, in.
terest into .quieter waters Still unit
he Is "old enough to. endure emotion.

Because of our improved methods
of transportation and storage, new

duced to our markets each year. Many
tropical and semi-tropical fruits, nuts

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
NicOtine Poisoning

Question: O. j. Asks: will you
please give me the symptoms of nico-
tine poisoning?"
Answer: Nicotine acts principally
on the brain and spinal cord. first
causing nervous excitement and then
death. The cause of death Is appar-
emily paralysis Of the respiratory CEN
ter and violent contraction of the in
testinal tract. Nicotine absorbed by
the blood is excreted unchanged by
the saliva and kidneys. Pure nico-
tine causes death almost as quickly as
pruSsic acid. Six mgrns. are conSid-
cred fatal. There are several cases of
suicide which were caused by swallow
ing plug Of tobacco. Poisoning has
also resulted from drinking brew
made of tobacco leaves. Nicotine
poisoning from smoking, however, is
almost impossible since most of the
nicotine is destroyed by the burning.
Wen
Question: r. M. writes: II have a
wen on the left side of the neck just
back of the ear. Will you please tell
me the cause, as I seem perfectly
healthy. Also, how can I get rid of
it?"
Answer: It will probably be nee
essary for you to have the wen re-
moved by plastic surgeon. The op-
Grafton is quite harmless and should
leave only small scar.
Iodine and GOitre
Question: Mrs. O. L. writes: 81
have had simple goitre Of very long
standing and have been advised to
eat weed called the EGGPLANT. My
doctor claims that it contains much
iodine and would like to have your
opinion"
Answer: There may be several 9th.
er causes of your goitre besides lack
of iodine and if you will send me your
name and large self addressed en-
velope will be glad to send you full
instructions. However, it is not nee
errary to use the EGGPLANT, as the
foods richest in iodine are as follows:
Gray shrimp, crab, lobster, herring,
oysters, green limas, pineapple, mush-
rooms and kelp.

vrNrIsrrALFOODS

In his efforts to survive in the face
Of obstacles, and aSsuage the pangs
of hunger, omniyorous man has made
use Of practically every edible sub
stance Of the plant and animal king
doms. Though countless kinds OF
things have been eaten, we find that
there is q curious resemblance IN the
diversified menus as to quantities OF
food and the chemical elements con-
sumed. Instinct and experiment have
guided the Bushman, the japanese,
the Turk and the Russian, alike, to
seek foods rich In protein, carbohy-
drate, fat and mineral clements.
though they knew neither the names
nor the existence of these things. The
diet of every race has contained all
four of these essential food materials.
So accustomed do we become to the
special foods in our own vicinity that
foods of other races, with which we
are but little acquainted, seem to us
strange or even repulsive, even as the
beef, mutton, pork, potatoes and
wheat bread diet which to us is so
familiar, may seem odd to others. In
some parts Of the world the foods
listed as follows are esteemed as deli
cacies: Armadillo, beaver, bear, buffa-
10, cat, camel, cuckoo, cuttlefish, dog,
donkey, elephant, elk, frog. hedgehog,
horse, hippopotamus, kangaroo, lion,
llama, mouse, monkey, mule, musk, OK,
opossum, ostrich, parrot, peacock,
penguin, porcupine, rat, rhinoceros,
shark, snail. snake, squirrel, swan,
toad, tortoise, whale, walruS and re-
bra.
It is possible for US to imagine us
ing these foods in emergency or ne
cessity, and even conjecture the pos
sibility of cultivating taste for some
of them, but 1t is hard to understand
how some of the insect family can be
considered especialls;' delectable by
primitive races. Some It the insects
actually used as food are: ants, ant
larvae, graSshoppers, locusts, cater
pillars, grubs, silkworm chrysalis and
immature bees.
Many strage vegetable substances,
too, have been tested by curious hu-
mans. Several races have found that
powdered SawduSt, from non-turpen-
tine bearing trees, could be mixed
with flour and used for making bread,
as have been various dried root vege-
tables. Millet, although used by
about one-third of the humans of the
earth as food, is hardly known in
England or America, though it makes
most delicious breakfast cereal.
Buckwheat, if peeled and cracked,
makes pleasing addition to vege-
tables and may be substituted for po-
tatoeS or rice.
The common root vegetables and
tubers are but few, but there are
many others, just as wholesome, but
not as well known such as: the Je-
rusalem artichoke: the dasheen; the
tarc; the stachys, tuber of the mint
family; the cassava, from which tapi-
oca is extracted; arrowhead tubers;
nasturtium roots: water chestnuts;
lotus roots and seed; many lily bulbs;
satisfy roots: skirret roots: dahlia
bulbs; celeriac. There are also many
wholesome green vegetables but little
known, some wild and som cultivated
in limited sections. A few of these
are: Sea kale. collards, chickory, dan
delion, sorrel, orach, turnip, beet and
radish tops, dock, singing nettle
chard, plantain leaves, mustard, wa

There is no little talk around WASH
ington about the exploited First Lady,
but the seasons debs are very sure
that Mrs. Coolidge hasn't a thing on
them so far as exploitation goes.
The perquisites of being deb, how
ever, seem rather to out-balance the
handicaps, and even the most blase
deb of all admits that being one GER
tainly does entail lot OF graft, and,
as one deb puts It, everybody takes 1t,
so we might as we'll get our share"
Just how the deb list OF addresses
and telephone numbers gets into cir
culation is a mystery. The ladies of
the social bureaus who almost invar-
iably launch a deb are too blue-blood-
ed and to the manner born to do so
crude and Grass thing as sell their
deb lists! But get them, the vulgar
"tradesmen" do!
The debs report that one mornings
mail may contain several jars Of cold
cream, several boxes Of face powder,
several pairs Of silk hose, much lin
gerie, all with little notes to the eff
feet that il these sundries aren't re-
turned at once, such and such q

is wearing and using and endorsing
their products and will say so in pub
lie print at once.

chorus. why not?"
IN PUBLICITY LIGHT
Because all the world seems to love
deb, various publicity stunts center
about them constantly. At election
time several airplanes full of debs CIR
culated over the city while the debs
dropped balloons with the printed ex-
hortation to vote for something or
other. One deb estimates that she
has had more than dozen airplane
luncheons and dinners and tea
dances. The social occasion itself is
supposed to be full pay for service
rendered some willy publicity concern
which well knows that any picture
with debs in it can get in any paper

Being a deb in Washington, q city
which still takes the whole custom Of

very simple. All you need is q spare
thousand dollars or so for the coming
