 The men chuckled and said: :" We'll, after all, what news can she give you" We half agreed, because Mrs. Roosevelt certainly proved to clever to invade her husbands province. Then sudden ly we did hit the front pages. Mrs. Roosevelt announced the White House would serve beer and light wines. That was back in the days when politicians still acted as though alcohol was used only for rubbing purposes.

Mrs. Roosevelt,s conference is Tuesday at II a. m. We traipse into the Red Room downstairs in the White House, and then stam-' pede upstairs to a study. When we're seated Mrs. Roosevelt enters, and before she sits down she goes the entire round shaking hands with each woman reporter. Some times there are 50 on hand. In nine years I've never seen Mrs. Roosevelt forget the courtesy.

switched to a heart, but it didn't

There would have been no way

Of veteran players, in this situa-
ton, is to play from the bottom
up when holding exactly three
cards, but give a high-low with
any other number.
If East had played his spade 8
on the K lead, West would have
known he did not hold three cards
of the suit. Therefore he had
either four, two or one. But with
two OF one, South then would have
had either three or four and so
probably would have supported
his partners rebid spades. West
therefore would have read it for
four and South consequently for
only one. So he would have played
his A on the first spade and beat

on at the Rockefeller Institute for
Medical Research, some at Har-
ward Medical School, Universities
of Minnesota and California.
The cause is generally agreed to
b. an ultramicroscopic germ or
virus which Dochez and his CO.
workers at the Rockefeller have
cultivated on media and by expos
ing healthy people have produced
colds. But as soon as this virus
has begun its work, other germs
enter the epithlium of the nose
and throat and cause most of the
symptoms. The common cold, an
other point on which all I in
agreement, is a group Of different
affections, rather than a single
entity.
Respiratory Infections
Environmental factors, such as
chilling and drafts, and wet, and
fatigue, precipitate a cold only
in the presence Of the virus. En-
posure to other people is the prime
factor, and these respiratory in
fections are very readily commu-
nicable. Periodicity Of colds does
not depend entirely on weather
conditions. The seasons" for
colds are the same in Florida and
Southern California as in less even
climates.
Immunity persists for several
months after an attack. What
look like occurrences are due to a
fooue Of lymphoid-tonsil or ade-
no.1 tissue-that has become in
fected.
DIAGNOSIS of the commoi cold
il c,..rtren should be made guaro-
eddy. What looks like a cold may
be the onset of measles, scarlet
fever, whooping cough, diphtherla
or infantile paralysis.
The only preventive of a cold
that meets with approval is re-
duction to a minimum of contacts
with crowds which is not very
practical. Spraying and gargling

Recommended Treatments

NeCUmIHcnUe treatments
Treatments recommended are
silver applications to the poste-
rior nose, spraying and gargling,
rest in bed, coal tar derivatives
(aspirin, phenacetin, acetanilid)
for symptomatic relief, sweating,
warm drinks, fumes of benzedrine
and menthol.
These, taken as l say, from the
latest and most modern textbook,
are not very cheering, but are the
only things that careful scientists
are willing to advise. They are
certainly not new. They, indeed,
are reminiscent Of exactly the
things my parents got out of the
blue-bound family doctor book
during the last century.
But it is a good deal better to
face the facts than fall for all the
high pressure craftsmanship we
hear about what wonders any par
ticular remedy will perform. "The
latest pronouncement of science"
we hear a good deal about that.
Well, l have gone over all the real
science there is on the subject, and
"a tell you science is pretty
mum about colds. | wish it were
not so. My readers and l both
would be delighted if | were able
to proclaim a SUI cure. Maybe it
will come this year. Meanwhile, it
isn't so bad. Colds are not such
calamitles. Staying in for a day
with a good book might really do
you quite a bit of good.

MAGIC NUMBER Is 3

THERE IS one situation in
which the important thing to
know is whether your partner has
three cards Of a particular suit.
II ne tells you by his play that he
does not hold exactly three, you
can then nearly always tell what
number he does hold, so that you
can govern your own play cor
rectly. That is when the declarer
embarks upon play Of the dunn
my's suit, in which you hold the
ace, the dummy being void of any
re%-entries. BY telling you the
length Of his own holding, YOUR
partner can guide You to the or

The committee also proposed that

combined employer -employe pay
roll taxes be boosted to per cent by
January /, 1914, level which would
not be reached under present law

to every American citizen who has
retired from gainful employment at

/, Railroad Retirement Act.
The committee also recommended

ate investigation was urged to devise
plan to embrace self-employed
groups. farmers and farm workers
and employees of all Government
SubdivisionS-the main classifica-
tlons not now covered.
The majority report was signed by
Senators Downey, Democrat, of CAL
ifornia, the chairman; Pepper, Dem
ocrat, of Florida: La Toilette. Pro-
gressive, of Wisconsin and Thomas,
Republican, of Idaho
Senator Green. Democrat, of
Rhode Island, in his minority re-
port, said the proposal would involve
the expenditure of $4,000, 100000
more than the amount now being
provided by the Federal Govern
ment. He estimated the present
amount at $220,O0O0O0
Called Unreasonable Spending.
Senator Green also asserted that
~the existing emergency calls for
extraordinary expenditures for ma
tional defense against external ag-
gression," and that the recommen-
dations of the majority for the huge
sums seem unrea sonable at
the present time"
While it has been contended in
recent years., said Senator, Green,
that the expenditure of such sums
would have beneficial effect on
the community as a whole, by pro-
viding sustained consumers pur-
chasing power, this argument has
no validity at the present time,

the liberalized benefits start at $40
monthly, July l, 1912, and remain
at that figure until January l, 1914.
The proposal also would liberalize
indirectly the benefits to widows
under so with children under 18.
Under the present law such widows
with one or more children cannot
get an allowance more than double
that of the husbands primary bene-
f1t.
Thus said the report, "a widow
with three children whose husbands s
benefit would have been the mini
mum Of $40, could not receive more
than $40, sum totally insufficient
for her support and generally far
below that to which most relief laws
would entitle her. Now, if the
minimum primary benefit were in
creased to $50 monthly her allow
ance would automatically rise to
$60."
