"TEN GALLONS Of water, 20

cup Of sugar and a bag Of salts
that's what your old father is,
my DEAR" says the material
istic professor in Conan Doyle's
story.
Whether that is all there is
to a man or not, at least that
is the part Of him that I am
fated to discuss exclusively in
this column. That is apparently
all that anybody wants to know
from me. Buster Keaton ex-

he plays the part Of a plumber
who is summoned to fix a bath
room. With an expression Of
blank despair on his immobile
face, he mutters, bathrooms,
bathrooms-always bathrooms"
This central fluid mass the
professor spoke of-this 10 or
Is gallons Of watery solution,
of albumin, fat, sugar and salts
held in a bag-the skin-the
fluid matrix of the body. as DR..
Cannon calls it in his fascinat-
ing book, "The wisdom Of the
Body" is preserved intact from
moment to moment by every ef-
fort Of the complex bodily func-
tionS.
BY the finest adjustme4-..5 its
neutral reaction between acid
and alkaline, and its protein,
fat, sugar, salt and calcium are
maintained.
One of the most interesting
Of these phenomena is the sta
bility of the entire mass Of this
fluid matrix. All the cells Of
the body, except where their
sides are contiguous with one an
other, are in contact with this
fluid within and without. Its
elements we know as blood and
lymph, which move constantly
around and around through
and between our living cells.
1.-THE movements of the blood
and lymph are related to each
other somewhat as the move
ment Of water in a rivulet is re-
lated to the more Stagnant
water in the swamp through
which it flows" writes DR.. Can
non. "The blood passes along
fixed courses in tubular vessels:
the lymph or tissue fluid, which
fills all the chinks and crannies
of the body structure, outside
the blood vessels, until it too
is gathered in it's own channels,
is shifted slowly from place to
place."

Weak Defensive Play

Then eclarer would have taken
two rounds of spades, taking
his j finesse and laying down
Dummy's K. The drop Of the
@ would leave one spade trick
in Y's hand.
Giving z credit for having
the Ace of diamonds, B would
lead a small card Of that suit,
expecting z to play his Ace.
In case z refused to do that,
w would win two diamond
tricks. 1t is impossible for B
to so lead diamonds as not to
lose two tricks to the missing
ALTO, unless z makes a be-
ginner's mistake Of putting up
his Ace second hand, when he
can see that A cannot take a
finesse of dummy's 8, unless B
holds the missing Q-J-9. # B
does hold all those missing
cards the diamonds must be
led several times and z can
not fail to win a trick with
his Ace. In case B happens
to have a singleton diamond
z will gain nothing by putting
up his Ace on the first lead,
as B must then hold at least
one losing club. B certainly
would have mentioned spades
if he had ben very long in
that suit.

z made an opening bid Of
1-club. AS a choice between an
informatory double and at once
bidding no-trump, A bid 1-no
trump. OF course Y could do
nothing. To show his great
strength B jumped his bid to
3-hearts. Lacking even one ace,
A should have contented him.
self with closing contracting at
4-heartS, but he bid 5-hearts,
and B bid 6-hearts, notwith-
standing the fact that rs open
ing bid announced ability to
win at least two defensive
tricks.
z doubled the small slam con-
tract, then he proceeded TO lead
his Ace of diamonds, followed
by his Ace Of clubs. B trumped
the last named ace. Three
rounds of hearts dropped all
opposing trumps, giving the de-
clarer four tricks. To these
were added three spade tricks.
BIS fourth spade was discarded
upon duYnmy'S K of clubs, max
ing the eighth trick. Two dia-
mond tricks and two long
hearts (12 tricks in alb full
filled the doubled small slam
contract.
More careful defensive work
would have beaten the contract
by two tricks. While the general
rule, to lay down aces at once
against a slam contract, is
sound, it does not always follow
that aces should be at once led.
Think of the bidding. Y must
be quick trickleSS. The imme-
date no-trump over rs opening
bid of 1-Club showed at least
two probable stops to that suit.
BIS jumped bid showed great
length and strength in hearts,
and his lack of hesitation about
bidding and small slam made it
evident that he expected to lose
no club tricks.
AS ABB evidently held solid
hearts, an opening lead of a
worthless trump would have
been safe. Expecting to drop
all hearts in two leads, B would
have won the first trick and
taken a second round of hearts.
Finding that he must take a
third round Of trumps before
daring to see how spades fell,
B doubtless would have chanced
dropping spades in three rounds,
and led a third round Of hearts.

Salt Containers

Salt Containers
DEAR MRS. BEECKNIAN:
I notice in your column today
that you say open salt cellars
are now more popular than salt
shakers. I would like to know
how to use these properly. es-
pecially when eating celery.
A. G. S.
When we place the open salt
containers many of these, Of
course, are copies Of the old
salt containers and some are
newly designed) we should al
ways place in them the small
salt spoon. This may be of silver,
or of glass. When we wish
some salt, we use the tiny salt
spoon to take some of the salt
to either our dinner plate, or
on the side, or on the side Of
the bread and butter plate. For
celery We would place the salt
on the side of the bread and
butter plate, and dip the piece
of celery into it there. If the
salt if for a food item served
in the roast course, we would
put the salt on the side of the
dinner plate. Then, if, for in
stance, we wish the salt with
our meat, we cut off a mouth
full of meat, dip it lightly in
the salt on the side of the
plate and eat the meat. This
form is better than sprinkling
the salt directly onto the item Of
food,

By Beatrice Fairfax

not. Do you think a man Of
my age has any chance? I
would be willing to give up the
rest Of my life for about two
years of happiness. r. L.
I am afraid it would be very
selfish indeed for you to marry
such a young girl, even if she
is in love with you. Such mar
riages have turned out happily,
as in the case Of the second
marriage of the charming Ferd-
inand De Lesseps, French diplo-
mat and organizer of the Suez
Canal, but alas, the gods aren't
as kind to many of us mortals
as they were to De Lesseps.
The fact that you have fallen
in love for the first time,
means probably that you are
one Of those people to whom
the ability to love comes late
in life; and I wouldn't despair,
but would try to find someone
Of more suitable age. There
are lots of women Of more
mature years who would make
you very happy and comfort
able.

She Feels Like a Stacker
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have been going with a boy
for three years. He is always
spending money on me, and it
counts up. Whenever I say any
thing to him about taking me
out so much, he says as long
as he has the money he's 60
ing to spend it. I would like
to do something for him. When
ever we stay home it's just talk
and listen to the radio. Always
the same old thing. Please tell
me some way I can repay him
for his generosity. I feel like
a Stacker. We are very much
in love, and he says he enjoys
these evenings at home, but I
want, to do something for him.
BETTY B.
Of course, evenings at home
listening to the radio seem
paradise now" to young man
in love. Why worry? If you
want to do something special,
embroider him half a dozen
handkerchiefs, or knit him a
silk muffler, or make him a
sofa pillow. Nearly all men en-
joy making candy. If you live
at home, or have access to a
kitchenette, you might try max
ing a pan of chocoluate fudge
some evening; or once in a while
you might take advantage of
the modern girls independence
and buy the tickets to a movie.

that 100000 would complete the
