Some of the most attractive
items on display in cosmetics
departments these days were de-
signed especially for summer
travellers and vacationists.
There is, for instance, . solid
cologne which ought to simplify
packing problems. The prepare
ton itself is q thick, tall stick Of
non-greasy. perfumed, ice-like
cream. It has . cooling effect on
the skin, leaves no oily film and
the odor lasts for hours. The
stick of cologne comes In q glass
bottle, md It ought to plea3s my
vacationist who Just never has
been able to figure out exactly
how to pack liquids.
Also new is q liquid sachet. It
is non-drying to the skin, and
its odor clings throughout an en-
tire day. It may be used In
place Of perfume during hot
summer months.

Authorities In the beauty buSi-
ness continue to disagree - 70
whether perfume should b used
on the skin or on clothes. One
school OF thought maintains that
the action Of the skin on par
fums changes the scent. The
other insists that the action .of
the skin on perfume enhances
the odor, making Il warmer and
deeper.

 Dear Sir: ---. .,,
 Last spring I was so run down, tired and discouraged all the time, All the world looked blue, My hair was very gray.
 (What did I tell youp Oh, didn't tell you. did I? But I meant to convey the idea in the title - how you look depends largely on how you are feeling. This poor girl was feeling pretty sad, and her hair looked very gray. I can't help thinking that some such state of mind may account for good many ' testimonials I have received from ] readers who declare that their gray hair Is regaining It's natural color) I read your article about "The Woman Who went to Town on To- dine' I tried 1t, and do I feel like a different person? My hair comes in darker now, so am about one half as gray as year ago. You may be sure take my "Iodin Ra- ton" and my vitamin B complex regularly. I seldom get the blues any more.
 My eldest daughter. IA, remark ed, after I had been following your advice Q few months: Mother, Is Daddy getting better natured, or what makes such @ change around here? Our home seems so much happier than 1t used to be-"
 I replied "The change is in me, thanks to Dr. Brady" Come, now, just between our selves or Doc Brady is sufi1cient)
 Now whenever I feel low in spirit or that tired feeling comes on, go right away and take my nip of io- dine and my regular ration of vita min B complex.
 I don't believe 1t darkens hair al- ready gray. but I do know new hair comes in dark. I'm 45 years old.

 If ten thousand individuals whose hair is turning gray prematurely would try 1t out for six months or a year and then report whether it has done any good, we might know something.

. McKENlNEY'S BRIDGE QUIZ
Three-Bid Gives Partner Count of Your Tricks BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY Amerlca's Card Authority AXIS

Three of the most ardent bridge fans I've met recently are Miss Iris Belton, Miss Esther Anderson, and Erwin Marquadt, all patients at the U. s. Veterans Hospital at Oteen, N. c. The two girls are former nurses. Marquadt has been in the hospital for Il years.
 Did we have @ lot of fun discuss ing the value of the three.bid? My contention Is that Q three-bid in- suits your partner, as 1t intends to put him out of the bidding as well as the opponents. Property, an origi- nal three-bid should show Q suit of at least six cards in length headed by A K @, or a Seven-card suit suit headed by A K J and no side strength. This type of bid gives your partner clear picture of your hand.
 Marquadt told me he had read my articles in the Asheville Citizen Times when he first came to the hospital, and he recalls that at one time I advocated very different three-bid, but we all agreed the new type threc-bid was the safest. For example, see how well 1t works out on the following hand.
 North knew, after his partners opening three-bid, that South held at least six solid diamond tricks, North could therefore venture to bid three no trumps. over Vests spade bid, on one bare spade stop per and only three high cards in the hand.
 West took the opening lead with the ace of spades and led another spade. Declarer then cashed nine tricks. No opening could have stopped game. thanks to the lower
