Of servants, who made occasional

man was pretty helpless in that
rool, dry spiral of carved, purplish
rock. Agile listened again and went
ahead. The stairs made q COM
plcte revolution before debouching
On a vast room that was crowded
nitl bins. Two of its walls were
raggedly cut from rock; the other
two, from hard earth. The low
ceiling was shored up by venerable
timbers. Names were burned over
sections of bins: Waite, Peters,
Calder, Drayman, Sommerfeld,
Plum, and SO on. Faded labels
above the cleaning bottles denoted
types Of wine, vintages, and cha
teaux. Aggie read a few, and re-
heeted in a hasty aside upon the
hxuries Of the rich. His childhood
~recollections Of this place were not
reassurlng-noW.
He moved past the long racks
Of almost-level-lying bottles to the
far end Of the room. There, the
bins were built against the wall.
A portion of that space-a large
portion a devoted to Davis.
There was not a bottle in it. The
timbers supporting the Calder
shelves were massive, for they also
served to hold up that part o. the
ceiling. He played his light full
on them; they seemed too ageless
and too immovable to permit ever
the thought of disturbance. They

That was why Sarah said nobody

time upstairs in the Sachem House.
The safe had been set into ono
wall. Its iron facade was taller
than Aggie. He shut the door be-
hlnd hIm again-and the lock
snapped. He was not afraid-in-
tlinldatlng though his surroundings
were-but the darkness and subter-
ranean aspect Of his adventure
gave him a feeling of urgency.
Sarah had written down the COM
olnatlon Of the huge old safe. He
flshed out the paper and went to
work on the dials. 1t took him five
minutes to get the %ponderous thing
open. he could hear nothing of the
world above him nothing from
the club-nothing from the roads,
where sirens ululated, and the am
bulance had come with a winkine
red light.
The safe was empty.
Its interior was some V feet
IN height, about eight feet deep,
and four feet wide If it had once
contained pigeonholes and strong
boxes, they had been removed.
There was nothing in it. Nothing
at all. He amended that. On the
floor were sprinklings of sawdust.
Wlsps of straw. A few chips and
fragments of pine-bits that might
have come from boxes. He had fin
lshed his journey. He was startled
by his discovery, because it was
dramatic. But it was not alto
gether unexpected. He swung his
light once more around the interior
of the safe, then he was stabbed
by a desire to get out-out of the
safe, the hidden ROOM, and the wine
cellar. He could imagine the great
iron door closing on him. He leaped
from the place. That relieved him,
partially. He closed the iron door
and spun the dials. His hands were
shaking. He switched off his light
and listened, realizing that his RI
gldity and concentration were less
for good hearing than for recovery.
"Claustrophobia." he said sound
lessly to himself. He hurried to the
door, unlocked it, stepped into the
passage, closed the door, and
started toward the back of the wine
bins. His of agitation re-
turned. He had thought of the cell

HOW TO TEST 4 BID

IF YOU are in doubt about what
bid would work out best in a par
tlCular situation on a particular
hand you naturally follow your
uest judgment at the table.
But afterWard, if you want better
guidance on what to do the next
time, you can test the several OPP
tons. One good way is to get out
a deck Of cards, pick out the hand
in question. then shuttle the other
SO cards and deal them into three
hands. Move those three hands
around into different positions.
and see how each bid would work
out IN the various cases.
Then deal the 80 cards again.
applying the same process. Keep
that up for four or five. or maybe
a dozen times-depending on your
persistence - and tabulate your
findings. Such a test is not con-
elusive, but it will give you a much
clearer idea of how each bid would
work out. Consider this hand

Henderson daily dispatch., 1945-02-16
Digestive Diseases

In the field of digestive diseases,
a wholly new technique had to be
invented in order to make the
X-rays of value. That was the tech
nique Of contrast medium. You can
take an A-ray picture OF the chest
and You do not see the esophagus
at all. Or one of the abdomen ard
you do not make out the outlines of
the stomach or |intestines. But
give a person a glass Of milk with
a non-absorbable metal salt, such
as barium, dissolved in it and the
barium will photograph opaque on
the X-ray plate just as bone does.
The tube which conveys food
from your mouth to your stomach
is the gullet, or esophagus. Until
N-ray technique with opaque
media was perfected so that the
outlines of the esophagus could be
seen and caught on the N-ray
plate, the diagnosis Of trouble in
this tube was practically an i'm
possibility. 1t runs its course
through the chest, a bony cage
which prevents US from feeling or
localizing the esophagus.
All the doctor could do in the old
days was to guess from the symp-
toms of difficulty in swallowing
what way the e~sophagus was at
fected, and even then he couldn't
do much in the way of relief. Now
the science Of esophageal disease
has infinite resources for helping
those who have trouble Of this
sort.
