Blood poisoning may and
often does occur for the most
trivial of reasons. A hang-nail
may cause it, or a blister on
the foot, or a superficial
scratch.
For it is not really the nature
of the wound or it's location
that produces the poisoning of
the blood; it is the fact that
even a slight abrasion of the
skin surface allows for the
entrance of germs into the
system. The further reason
why slight wounds so often
lead to such serious con-
sequences is simply that, be-
cause they are slight, most Of
us tend to disregard them.
Few persons, for instance,
use an antiseptic solution for
a hang-nail, nor do they band
age a blister, even if they have
started right by opening it
first with a needle that has
been sterilized by holding it in
a flame. Yet-and particularly
does this apply to the feet and
covered areas of the body gen.
orally - stockings or other
articles of clothing, which never
can really be absolutely free
from germs, actually rub the
germs into the wound and,
before one knows it, these have
entered the blood stream and
have multiplied there.
Before the advent of Lister
every operation was fraught
with similar blood poisoning
dangers, and to greater ex-
tent. For up to that time
antisept1c surgery, as such, was
unknown.
In all cutting operations now
adays, no matter how simple
they may seem, surgeons no
longer use carbolic acid, as did
Lister, but they kill all the
germs that may be present on
the instruments by boiling
them before using them, or
by subjecting them to high
steam pressure for a specified
length of time, the same pro-
cedure being used for all the
towels, sheets, dressings, etc.

Tears formed in her eyes and

What would have happened
had the 7-Clubs doubled been
allowed to stand?
North would have led his
fourth-best heart against the
grand slam bid of clubs.
South'S @ would have won.
South would have led back his
only spade. It is customary to
lead the top of your partners
suit when holding fewer than
four. AS South would have led
the 2 and West would have
covered the lead, it would have
been evident to North that the
lead was a singleton. North
would have won with his Ace,
and he would have returned a
low spade for South to ruff,
giving North-South their third
trick.
Dummy being out of hearts
South would have to lead back
a diamond. AS his partner had
bid that suit, South would have
led his K, winning his fourth
trick. North would have won
the next lead of diamonds with
his Ace. He would have led back
a third round of spades, which
South would have ruffed, Civ
ing his side its sixth and last
defensive trick, and defeating
the grand slam contract by six
tricks.
Going down six tricks doubled,
when vulnerable, would have
given North-South 2,7O0 points,
less 100 honor points for the
declarer, netting 1900 points,
but affording the losers an
even chance of winning the rub
Der, probably saving thereby 900
points, or losing about 1000
points on the rubber.
The chances for making
grand slam are so much less
than the chances for making a
small slam, that East's bid of
7-Clubs displayed good judg-
ment. Of course South'S dou-
BILE of the opposing grand slam
was better than for him to bid
a grand slam, as he did not
know that his partner was void
of clubs. North's grand slam
bid was a plunge in the dark,
that turned out remarkably we'll,
far better than collecting a
penalty from East West, even if
West had not doubled.

How would you like to go
shopping with a film star?
It's fun, and it's considerably
easier than the shopping of
most people. For she stays in
her own suite at the hotel, and
has the clothes brought out
to her. I had the good for
tune to be present when Joan
Blondell had batch of boxes
sent out from a local store, to
select a few dresses. I watched
her try them on, and thinking
you'd be interested, 1 made
notes on them all, and have a
photograph of Miss Blondell
in her favorite.
Bingham for Evening
Miss Blondell is no platinum
blonde, but a well tanned,
healthy looking individual with
golden hair. In fact it's so
yellow that it looks like spun
gold, and is very beautiful.
She has a good figure and a
vivacious personality, both of
which add to the way the
clothes look on her. She just
steps into them and could
walk right out, they fit so we'll.
The dress she's photographed
in is a cotton evening gown,
fashionable because it's of
Bingham with white pique trim
ming. and smart because Of
its lines, tight through the
hips and flaring very decidedly
below. The white pique jacket
comes with it. She selected
a blue and red gingham be-
cause it sets off her suntan
so well, though she found it
hard to turn down a green
and yellow combination, and a
red and white.
Brown Tones Favored
She bought a stunning white
silk crepe spectator sports dress
with brown and white striped
three-quarter coat. There was
a tie of the striped material,
too. Then she bought a white
cross-barred organdie that was
perfectly lovely. It had a white
mousseline de sole fischu sort
of ruffle around the throat and
big puffed sleeves. It was over
a green slip. Then there was a
printed mousseline de sole in
yellow, gray and brown, with
apple blossoms at the neckline,
and a brown taffeta coat with
huge puffed sleeves. When I
left she was about to decide on
a brown sheer street dress with
orange and yellow printed top,
and printed jacket, both with
rather full open sleeves. I got
prices on everything, as there
are others like them at the
store. The street costume, de-

WHICH WOULD HAVE PAID
NORTH.SOUTH BEST?

AS STATED yesterday, both
sides were vulnerable. West
doubled a bid of 6-Hearts and
that would have been played
had not North redoubled. The
redouble drove East to bid
7-Clubs on his defenseless hand.
South doubled. North decided
to bid 7-Hearts, instead of let
ting the double stand. West
should have let the 7-Heart go
undoubled, as North might have
redoubled, but West doubled.
Nothing could have stopped
South from fulfilling his grand
slam contract.
The various scores which
North-South might have made
are as follows: 6-Hearts un-
doubled, 1850 points; 6-Hearts
doubled, 1910; 6-Hearts, dou-
bled and redoubled, 1880 points;
Hearts undoubled, 5000 points

Blush Unseen"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am girl 20 years old, and
I think unlucky. I work in
my fathers store from early
morning until late in the
evening, owing to his poor
health. I know no young
people with the exception OF
two girls, but they are very
different from me in type, and
I have no boy friends at all,
as I never seem to be able to
get away from the shop.
It makes me very unhappy
to sse younger girls going out
with boys and having such good
times. I hope I am not giving
you the impression that am
grouchy or old-faShioned, but
I do wish things were better.
I can't make friends very well
in this neighborhood, because
everyone is of a different ma
tionality. I keep telling my
mother I will be an old maid,
but she just laughs at me and
says have plenty of time. Can
you solve my problem?
V. F.
I think yours is a very real
problem, my dear, and one
with which I am deeply sympa-
thetic. A girl of 20 should enjoy
her youth and have a chance
to make some friends. Why
not have your mother look
after the shop one or two even
ings in the week, while you

CHAPTER FIVE
With the return of Leni to
the box, Cavanaugh lost all in
terest in the story unfolding
on the screen. Gates had moved
over to the seat next the rail
and was sitting utterly quiet
with his head dropped slightly
forward.
The fragrance of Leni's per-
fume preceded her into the box.
Without removing her cloak,
she sank into the inside chair
beside Gates.
Cavanaugh was so close to
her that he could easily have
reached out and touched her
shoulder.
The color had not come back
to her face; he sensed the pain
full beating of her heart. When
she leaned toward Gates, Cav

EATING ASPARAGUS
YOU. CAN SEE for yourself, when you contemplate
the difference in these pictures, that asparagus should
be eaten with your fork.
There's nothing to worry about, for you can secure
all the edible part of the stalks with your fork If
you take asparagus in your fingers, you'll find that

and messy napkin.
