Free for Inspection.

The National Protective Insurance
Co.. nationally famous for its $685.
accident policy, is now issuing to
men, ages 10 to SO, and women, 10
to SIN all occupationS-a sick
benefit policy paying up to 500
each month in case of illness or
disease on the National Protective
money saving plan of operation.
It is now no longer necessary to
pay $50 to $40 a year for full COW
erage health insurance. Nor is it
necessary to accept policy cover
ing only 80 to 40 of the 1900 dis
eases known to medical science.
The National Protective is the only
company issuing a health policy

The present low price, however,
can be continued only if their new
Health Policy can be sold in the
same large volume as their Acct

who take out the Health Policy
now are guaranteed the present
special low cost both the first year
and every year thereafter.
Send No Money
There is no application to fill out.
No medical examination or other red
tape. If you are now in good health,
simply send name, age, address and sex
to National Protective Insurance Com
pany, 1886 Pickwick Bldg, Kansas

which will be mailed to you and then
decide whether to return it without
obligation or send the small payment

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. M'KENNEY
Secretary American Bridge Leagu


IF you look at all the cards in to-
i days hand and try to aralyze
it as a double dummy problem, you
will be wrong. This is a playing
problem that came up in the ma
tional tournament against one of
the country's best players, and I
want to show you the psychology of
doing the unexpected.
Vests opening bid of one spade
is rather light for a second hand
bid, but many players prefer to
open with this type of hand in first
or second position. Over the one
spade double, South is afraid to
leave the bid in, as his side may
have a game.

Made Clean Sween of Fashions
Well, the last time the Bourbons
were restored was in the year 1916.
History repeats itself only in part,
but accounts of the time tell us that
the noble women who returned to
the new court made a clean sweep
of all fashions which recalled to
them the DAYS Of the hated republic
and empire.
The white flag of the royalists,
with its fleur-de-liS, flOated from the
Understand there was a rage of
white costumes and white feathers
in the hair The pleasure-starved
emigrees thought of nothing but
balls and entertainments, lOW-cut
dresses and real and valuable jewels.
Dresses were expensive. CorsetS
were extreme. They we're made with
those arduOus steel "bUskS," al
though a contemporary writer tells
us that a certain DR.. Palletan dis
couraged this on the theory that
they attracted electricity to the
chest and might occasion internal
irritation in that region
Men Displayed Jewelry
At least. they occasioned fainting
spells. It was the fashion to be
very pale, to carry lorgnette as an
added sign of helplesSnesS and to
eat practically nothing-in public,
at least. The woman who nibbled
on a few bOnbons and called it
meal was admired for her spiritual
ity.
Nor does a restoration leave the
manners of the men unaffected it
seems. The mobiles Of the 1880
restoration entered into competition
with their wives as to the magnif1-
cence of the jewels with which they
held their cravatS in shape. They
wore their hair long and curled, and
for a while they affected cloakS that
swept the ground and 1uttered out
behind like honest trains.
Copied Beau Brummel
Count D'Orsay. who was the
dandy of his time, revived many of
the pretty fancieS of his predecessor,
Beau Brummel. who required three
BARRIERS to arrange his hair-one
who understood how to deal with
the back but could not cope with
the forehead curls, one who accom-
pliShed this delicate task but had
to yield to a third, who specialized
on the hair about the temples.
It was Brummel who ordered -
gloves from two firms-one making
only the thumbs, the other the rest
of the finger. 1t was the Count
d'OrSay who ordered twenty-five
dress coats Of exactly the same pat
tern, fearing that he would never
again run across so perfect a crea-
ton.
Only one sinister note seems to
have disturbed the lighthearted eX-
travagance of the time. The
beautiful Nine. de Sampajo, at a
slightly later period, enumerated
her wardrobe and mentioned my
dress for the days when the king
or his family is shot at"

CAPPER SEES D. c.
DENIED FAIR DEAL
Kansas G. o. P. Is Gratified
to Learn President Orders
Tax Study.

Expressing the belief the District
''has not been getting q square deal"
in apportionment Of expenses Of the
National Capital between the United
States and the local community in
recent years, Senator Capper, Republi-
can of Kansas, said yesterday he was
gratifled to learn the President has
requested Treasury experts to study
District taxation in comparison with
other cities.
Senator Capper Is the ranking mi
nority member Of the Senate District
Committee and also served on the sub
committee handling District appro-
priation bills In the Senate.
Commenting on recent revival Of
suggestions that the District ought to
have local income tax. Senator Cap
per pointed out that he has always
been against the District income tax
bills in the past, land would have to
be shown that there Is q need for it at
this time" Chairman King of the
Senate District Committee advocated
the income tax bill recently.
Senator Capper said he hoped Con-
gress will take early action on the
motorists safety responsibility bill, il
view of the growing toll of seriou,
accidents here. He took the lead ii
urging this bill in the past severa
years. Senator King has already ar
ranged to introduce the bill next week.
and Capper said he will cooperate il
seeking its passage.
The bill would not affect drivers
unless they are convicted of certain
serious traffic offenses or unless they
have an unpaid accident judgment
outstanding against them. In such
cases they would have to show finan-
cial responsibility, either by insurance,
bond or a cash deposit for future pro-
lection Of the public, before being per-
mitted to drive again.

NICE TO ADVOCATE
NEW ROADS BOARD
Paid and FuII-Time Govern.
ing Body Favored, Due
to Importance.
,y q stan Correspondent Of The Star.

BY Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md, December 2e.-
Appointment Of q paid and full-time
governing board for the State Roads
Commission to replace the present
arrangement under which the COM
missioners work part time with only
the chairman receiving q salary Is to
be advocated by Gov. .-elect Harry w.
Nice, 1t was learned today.
Nice, referring to the importance Of
the work supervised by the commits
sion, said that the highway group IS
considered the major departmental
unit in the State government and
spends more than $10,0oo,000 annu-
ally and he declared that he believes
the members Of the group should de-
vote full time to their duties.
Lack Of Supervision.
It was intimated during his dis
cussion Of the matter that the present
financial plight Of the commission
would not have developed II there
had been better supervision by the
commissioners.
Selection Of q full commission,
which has two members in addition to
the chairman, Is one Of the first tasks
that Nice will be called upon to carry
out after he assumes ONCE on Janu-
ary 8.
The chairmanship has been vacant
since August S, when G. Clinton Uhl
died, while the present associate men,
bers-William D. Bryon and Robert
Lacy-are expected to resign when the
incoming administration takes charge.
Under the present set-up the salary
Of the chairman is fixed at $4,000 q
year, less a contribution exacted to
effect economies. Nice would not
change this figure. He would pay
each OF the associate commissioners
$4,000.
Meeting Once . Week.
Since the Inauguration Of the roads
board 20 years ago the members have
met once week and visited the COM
missions offices regularly.
The first duty to be met by the new
commission will be the selection Of a
chief engineer. The present holder Of
the post. Harry d. Wilnar, jr.; will
not be retained.
Nice declined to discuss possible
choices for the commissionerships and
chief engineer. He will be free to
make his selections, however. because
none Of the appointments needs Sen
ate confirmation.
In considering possible changes In
the operation Of the commission, the
Governor-elect is studying the advis-
ability Of having the groups legal ad-
wiser selected by the commissioners in
stead Of by the attorney-general.
The adviser has the title Of special
assistant encouragement, but his
duties involve the roads group solely.
John B. Gray, jr., is the present holder
Of the post.
Nice believes that because Of the
close association between the commits
sioners end the adviser the former
should have the right to select their
own aid. The holder Of the post has
little or no contact with the attorney
general or any Of the work in his ofiice.

EAVING Jimmy on guard hur-
ried to the staircase. I felt GER
tain that Molly would be on
IL one of the upper floors, prob
ably in a back room, and on
reaching the first landing, I made
straight for the door facing me.
It was locked, but the key was on
the outside. I wrenched it round,
nearly breaking it In my haste, and
then, as the light Of my torch swept
the room, an unprintable oath burst
from my lips.
She was strapped down on q small
truckle bed, her hands tied behind
her-her ankles fastened to the rail
at the end. The lower half Of her
face was almost hidden by a roughly
twisted handkerchief, which had been
stretched across her mouth and
knotted tightly at the back. On one
cheek, Just below the eye, was an
ugly red smear.
The next instant I was kneeling
on the floor beside her. my fingers
working feverishly to undo the gag.
I got the thing loose at last, and as
she drew in her breath with a quick
gasping sob, I dragged out a pocket
knife which, by the mercy Of God, !
always carry about with me.
Its all right" assured her. I'll
have you free in a minute"
With desperate eagerness I sawed
away at the stout cord which fastened
her down to the bed. 1t soon parted.
and then, having freed her wrists
and ankles, I slid my arm around her
and lifted her up gently.
Whats happened, Nick?"
Her voice was so weak that
/ could scarcely catch the words.
Those devils drugged you at the
hotel and took you away in a car"
Yes. yes. know-but how did you
get here?"
Never mind now; I'll explain
later" I stuffed the knife back into
my pocket and picked up tie torch
which was lying on the bed. I'VE
must clear out of this place as soon
as we can. Do you think you can
walk or shall carry you?"
She made a feeble effort to rise.
and then sank back again with her
head against my shoulder.

Getting on my feet I picked her
up just as she was. Put your arms

I said. "Jimmy's downstairs and

MONTGOMERY AID
Roads Engineer Favors Use
of Idle State Equip
ment on Projects.
BY JACK ALLEN,
Stan Correspondent Of The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, December 90
Thomas Linthicum Of Frederick, dis
trict engineer for the State Roads
Commission, assured Montgomery
County officials yesterday that he
would lend his support to efforts to
borrow State highway trucks and other
equipment for use in maintaining and
constructing a number of roads In the
northern section of the county.
A formal request for permission to
use the equipment, whcih is lying idle
as a result Of the State Roads Com
missions financial plight, was to be
forwarded to Baltimore today and will
be followed by an Endorsement from
Linthicum.
Confer on Program.
Meanwhile County Commissioners
Frank H. Karn, Charles E. King and
Richard H Lansdale are conferring
with w. Frank Ricketts,, State roads
supervisor in this section, and Stephen
Cromwell, manager of the Emergency
Works Administrations local office,
in the preparation of a program Of
road projects.
1t Is hoped to draft number o;
projects that will meet with the E. w.
A. approval so that laborers can be
obtained from the local relief rolls of
that organization. Assignment of the
e. w. A. men and the use Of State
equipment would require the county
only the advance funds for fuel for
the mororized equipment and salaries
for one or two road construction
supervisors.
Plan of Pushing Work.
The plan was devised by the County
Board two days ago as the only means
OF carrying on much needed mainte-
nance and construction work, as the
countys account with the State
Roads Commission is in such a de-
pleted condition that there is nc
possibility of that group resumine
work N Montgomery for some time.
County officials said that there Is
an abundance of blue stone of the
type used for road construction pur-
poses available along the roadways
that need improvement and the ma
terial, therefore will not require any
outlay Of funds.
