would then have the spade suit stopped only once. His proper play is the seven spot. East plays the king, declarer wins the trick with the ace, but he still has a spade stopper.
 The mistake made by the aver age player would now be to start the heart suit, trusting for break. But even if they do break, there would not be sufficient tricks for game. While the declarer still has control of the other three suits, the clubs should be started by leading the jack. If West covers, the king is played from dummy, while IT West plays small, the jack is al- lowed to ride through. In this case West played low, dummy played the three and East won the trick with the ace and led the nine or spades. the top of his partners suit. A small spade was played by declarer and West won the trick with the queen, getting the ten spot from dummy. The six of spades was led by West, dummy discard ing the three of diamonds, declarer winning the trick with the jack. The deuce of clubs is led by de- clarer and the nine spot finesse taken. The king of clubs is re- turned from dummy which picks up Vests queen.
 Declarer now starts his heart suit by leading the deuce from dummy and winning in his own

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
By Alicia Hart
0Io5I bY NEA SERVICE INC;

The permanent wave you had back in the spring in preparation for summer Is probably almost all gone by now and you should begin to get your hair and scalp in shape for the next one. Don't go Tor your permanent with your hair in an unhealthy condition and expect the wave to turn out to be sort and luxurious.
 Start giving yourself hot oil shampoos for a few weeks. You simply apply hot olive oil to the scalp and thoroughly massage 1t into the pores of your head the night before you shampoo your hair. Have an occasional massage and tonic treatment prior to get ting your permanent. Brush your hair twice day to stimplate cir- culation and make it bright and glossy.
 When you are ready to have permanent, remember that your operator is much more important than the method or kind Of ma chine used. Be sure that you get a skilled one who will not twist the hair before winding 1t around the rods.
 | You may feel that you are get ting more for your money when | the waves are tight and inclined to be fuzzy. Such Is not the case. The only way you can get your moneys worth is to be assured that the waves will be wide, loose and natural.
 See that your hair is tested be- fore the Wave is given. Only by
 testing a strand can the operator tell just how strong a solution
 your hair will require to give 1t the best wave.
 A permanent should last four or five months, depending on the rap idity of the growth of the hair.
 Don't think because you have a
 permanent that your hair will need no more attention for six months. As a matter of fact, it will need more concentrated attention than
 it did before. Brushing each day will not take the wave out. but
 will make it fall in much more flat tering waves around your face. Don't use a brush with stiff bris- ties. Put a little dressing on one
 palm, draw your brush across 1t and then brush your hair from the scalp to the very ends for ten or fifteen minutes. This daily brush ing will give you back that silky look that permanents tend to dim. 1 Washing your hair too often will dry out the permanent. Every two or three weeks will be often enough and between times, if you think it necessary, cleanse with q tonic and rough towel. After a shampoo, use a wave lotion to set your hair instead of just trying to set it with water. Wave lotions | counteract the drying and besides, it's much easier to shape nice waves when you use a lotion.

Way to Get At q Cold Ls Through the Bo.DeLs

As soon as you catch cold, the pores close; precipitation is check ed. Gases and waste can't escape through the skin. That's why your doctors first advice in case of colds is a mild laxative like cascara. Medical authorities agree 1t actual Iy strengthens bowel muscles. You get cascara in it's most pleasant form in candy Cascarets.
 Remember this when you catch cold; whenever breath is bad; tongue coated; or you're headachy, bilious, constipated.
 Why resort to harsher things when Cascarets activate the bowels SO quickly, so harmlessly and pleasantiy--and cost only a dime7

SAYS WEAK MALES
 ATTRACT WOMEN

By NEA Service
 London-It's not the big strong "he" man who sets female hearts to palpitating. if you take the word of Frau Vicii Baum, famous au- thor. It's the little puny weak lings who attract the female and makes her want to mother them.
 Tt is tEe fallicious belief of many that the strong man, the masterful type, delights most wo- men," Frau Baum says. This is not so. Perhaps the weak type of woman will look to him, lean on him, take strength from his vitality.
 "Strong women may admire strong. successful and self-assured men. but love them or yearn ten derly toward them? No. do not think so. Most women are drawn toward the weak male. It Is graii- flying to. a woman to feel that she is needed; that her ministra- .tions are important to some hu- man creature. A weak man is like a clinging child to women. They want to mother him, encourage him, help him. All their material instincts are marshalled in his be- half"
