said that another great group Of
drugs acted by changing the mass
or flow Of blood in a part. We wish
to consider today this second group
of drugs.
Coffee is perhaps the best ex-
ample. Coffee has well-known ef.
tects which everyone recognizes. 1t
keeps you awake; It increases the
dow of urine; it stimulates a feel
ing of well-being. II also has an
sction which you cannot feel,
which IS to stimulate the tone of
the heart. It does all these things
by increasing the how of blood to
part.
Coffee has little, if any st.nu-
iating effect directly on the brain,
but By increasing the blood flow to
the brain, it produces mental ac-
tivity, wakefulness and sleepless-
ness. The same thing occurs in the
kidneys. They are overactive with
coffee simply because more blood
goes to them. The same thing oc-
ours in the heart. The blood flow
in the heart muscle is improved
with coffee.
Effects of Tobacco
Tobacco, we said yesterday, was
typical habitually used drug
whose effects are mostly due to the
:hanges it makes in blood vessels.
Opposite from coffee, it causes a
spasm of certain blood vessels, for
instance blood vessels in the heart,

'lindness, or amblyopia, which is
emporary. This is largely effected

Another group OF drugs acts in
his way, but in an intermediate
ashton by causing a spasm or a
lilatation of the blood vessels.
Thus the action of adrenalin and

enalin causes a spasm Of most of

His story is that the Republicans
are more interested in winning the
November election than they are
in winning the war-an accusa-
ton, intended to put EN- on the
defensive, against it. He also ap-
peals for unity behind the party in
power, which is. however. more a
defensive tactic, speaking polii-
caily.
AS offensive leader, Chairman
Martins ammunition is accusa-
tory, too.
His charge is that the Demo-

United Nations campaign against
the Axis. and he says the very
reason the Republicans are so anx-
ious to come out on top, in No.

So there you are.

executive administration and both

fercer American prosecution Of
the war.
But It can't attain any such con-

Jacques Bustanoby let into his temple
both din and dancing and though the twin
Samsons pulled the temple down in ruins,
Jacques first made fame and fortune from 1t.
One big successful idea is not enough to
prove genius but there were other symptoms
in the man, such as the ability to see ability
in others and it.
All the money in those top-flight places was
made at night; during the day they were as
empty and profitless school house on a
holiday Since any dollar captured during the
daylight hours would be velvet and most men
with important money TO spend were busy
earning it. Jacques and his rivals tried to
lure what he called the leisure sex" by offer
ing tea dances. Husbands may have had
Slight misgivings about the dancing but tea
seemed innocent and suggested harmless hem
parties of women.
OF course other drinks more inter-
esting than tea but even cocktails do not have
the desired effect of making woman toss her
money around. Bustanoby knew that the idea
must be improved and one or two of his GUS
toners showed him how. These ladies brought
with them certain young men, without visible
means of support. at that time contemptuously
termed Lounge lizards
Like women with a past this gentry was
thought otherwise and stocked up with few
to see if they would bring business. Their task
was 10 gaze wstfully at some wealthy woman
who looked as If her husband neglected her,
and then ask the proprietor for an introduce

These were the pioneers of the great gig

requirement was sex appeal One of the first

When threatened with having his place

all agreed that Bustanoby needed the best

he picked "A thin young unknown. His Justi-

- ASCENDANT of a long line Of French
u chefs, Jacques Bustanoby born to
49, the purple" of the restaurant business
and he ruled it, in New York, during it's
golden age when dining out was not only an
art but an almost sacred ritual
This great genius of the culinary art died
the other day at the age of 62 He had out
lived his era and strangely enough, had prob
ably done more than any other person or
thing even Prohibition, TO kill the age of the
royal dinner.
He had introduced TO the dining room two
deadly enemies bound to be as devastating to
the fine art OF his ancestors as they would
be to the sermon if introduced into church
services
One was the cabaret which his Mortified
competitors called, din with dinner the
other perhaps even more fatal to serious cat
ing, the modern custom of jumping up every
few minutes to dance, while the food gets
cold
Letting in these vandals destroyed an en-
pire OF the kitchen whose foundation had
been laid by Benjamin Franklin, after he had
visited France and discovered what decent
bread tasted like. Returning he taught the
American people how TO bake bread, fit to

his brothers. the four meal musketeers, Pierre,
Jean, Andre and Louis
In 1901, the five brothers pooled their re-
sources to open the Beaux Arts Restaurant
in West Fortieth Street, near Sixth Avenue.
The best minds in the business prophesied
that it was foredoomed to fail because it was
too far uptown.
The Bustanoby Freres seem 10 have known
that there was strong probability in those
omnous forecasts but Jacques saw way to
offset IT,
Besides hunger and thirst there are other
appetites for instance vanity In those days,
while stage folk openly courted all the pub
licty they could get society big shotesses pre-
tended to scorn it.
With this in mind Jacques left the cuisine
department largely in the eight competent
hands of his four brothers and devoted HIM
self to the opening night.
No actress before or since, has enjoyed
such glamour as the one and only Lillian
Russell who was not only great beauty but
a dresser. a romantic figure, a smart woman
and good sport 1t was no trouble to induce
that star of stars TO be present at any event
which promised publicity.
Diamond Jim" Brady was the nearest ap-
proach to her equal in interest in the male
sex and he had certain specially delightful
qualities from the restaurateurs point OF
view.
He was very wealthy spent money like
water, usually brought several ladies with him
and was the worlds champion heavyweight
eater and drinker of fine foods and vintage
wines 1t was said of Jim that if he would
be a steady customer that was all restau-
rant needed.
Jim salesman extraordinary of railroad
supplies needed publicity and besides that,
was tempted by the promise of some dishes
which he had never tasted
Diamond jim entered with one of the Dolly
Sisters on each arm and there were also
Maxine Elliott David Warfield and Leslie
Carter.
Mrs Carter was society woman who had
turned into a stage star but even she was of
the stage-stagey. What BustanOby needed
was one Simon-pure aristocrat and this he
produced in the august person of John Jacob
Astor.
How he lured that utterly-utter being is
not known. Jacques Bustanoby was a genius
40 that's all.
This took the curse off the location. Any
place where John Jacob Astor /dined was
good enough for anyone, even if it had been
on the Bowery.
The venture was a money maker from the
start but Jacques knew better than to rest on
his laureis, lest some rival steal them. He
wanted above all things to have wel-known

window but found that his added weight

who were collecting rapidly.

Then he yelled, Haul in"
They hauled bringing in first the cop and
then the nude aerialist. The rescuer demand

The lady replied only with tears which ran

to recognize her without her clothes on, but
the proprietor who burst into the room at that
moment was able to do so.
1t was his wife (hs first wife) but not
his idea, and he proved it by trying to keep
the story out of the papers. However, divorce
followed.
In 1897 when a hungry-looking immigrant,
II years old stepped off a French liner at
New York City, only one person suspected
that he was the future overload of the citys
eating industry-Thst- person the youth
himself, jacques Bustanoby. His father, one
of the best cooks in Pau France, had taught
him cooking since he ten years old
Four brothers, also kitchen artists, had ar
rived before him The reason was-too many
cooks in France.
1t seemed to be the same way in New
York because the first job he could get was
window washing. In his spare time the boy
hung around the kitchen entrances of French
restaurants where at least they understood
his language, even If they did not believe his
perfectly truthful boasting At last he won
a Job at Martins a wine faster.
There being no great future in wine-tast-
ing, he begged job as busboy, the humble
beast of burden who carries dirty dishes back

But you can't keep a good man down or
at least you couldn't in those days. jacques
became waiter captain and-head waiter in
such cord-brealSing time that he achieved
that last rank as the youngest of any in the
history of the Citys best restaurants.

One night Reggie came in all alone and
after a succession of rapid drinks began TO

the sobbing millionaire and implored him to

But the trouble was beyond their powers.
It was trouble not OF the stomach but of the

Finally he explained his heart would break

himself alone would join him here.

MY coachman knows-ashk him.
Jacques ordered the head waiter To have
Nellie brought at once, regardless of expense
or other consideration. few minutes later
he and all the guests froze at the sight of
an apparition.
1t was Reggie's elaborately-costumed
coachman. leading in his masters pet horse
which had driven him there Her name was
Nellie.
Guests gasped and scrambled out of the
way and tables were moved to permit Nellie
TO be led to her masters table where she was
hitched TO a hat rack. A busboy was sent
around the corner TO a livery stable for
bag of oats, and succulent carrots were
brought from the kitchen. Throughout the

TO the nag but if Nellie answered back, her
reply was never recorded. Two hours later,

publicity more than repaid Jacques and II at

daily copy for the newspapers.
But were Bohemians even those with
money to spend desirable in a select and ex-
elusive atmosphere like that? Jacques made
the revolutionary decision that they were and,
for a time, cashed in on it, in a big way.
Destiny had pushed him into the fateful
decision by other events. 1t was his custom to
nominate an occasional evening as "Soiree
Artistiaue" for which he rounded up good
sized assemblage of stage celebrities whose
names would be duly recorded in the papers.
This free advertising and the privilege of
letting lesser-lSnown guests feast their eyes
on them, without extra charge, was all that
was asked or desired.
