delightful movie, Friendly Per-
Suasion,'" writes a Greenwich,
Conn reader. 1.-THE simplicity,
warmth and goodness of the
Quaker family delighted all of
us, but there was one note that
Jared q trifle and, for me at
least, broke the spell Of enchant-
ment that Dorothy Mcguire.
Gary Cooper and the others had
built up. 1t was when the teen
age daughter discovers her
younger brother listening to her
talking to her image in the
mirror. She warns him, in what
was apparently a folk adage of
the period, If you eavesdrop,
your ears will become as long as

Nov here's my question: Were
hot dogs so called at the time
of the Civil WARRIOR that's when

hot dog is a brash and recent
coinage. I somehow can't be-

Right you are. A hot dog in
1860 is Just as complete an
anachronism as the famous

Science Finds Healing Substance That Does Both
Relieves Pain-Shrinks HemOrrhOi6S

New York, N. Y. Especially =
For the first time science has
found a new healing substance
with the astonishing ability TO
shrink hemorrhoids and to relieve
pain-without surgery.
In one hemorrhoid case after
another, Every striking improve
ment" was reported and verified
by doctors observations.
Pain was relieved promptly.
And, while gently relieving pain,
actual reduction or retraction
(shrinking) took place.
And most amazing Of all--this
Improvement was maintained in
cases where doctors observations
were continued over a period Of
many monthsl
In fact, results we're so thor
ough that sufferers were able to

probleml" And among these suf-
ferers were a very wide variety
of hemorrhoid conditions, some Of
10 to 20 years standing.
All this, without the use Of
narcotics, anesthetics or astrin-
gents Of any kind. The secret is
a new healing substance (Bio-
Dynet)- the discovery Of a world
famous research institution. Al
ready, Bio-Dyne is in wide use
for healing injured tissue on all
parts Of the body.
This new healing substance Is
offered in suppository or ointment
form called Preparation H. Ask

cial applicator. Preparation H is

Holding three caxds to the jack
in his partners bid suit, Mr..
Champion made the correct
opening lead, the deuce of hearts.
Mr.. Muzzy won with the ace and
unfortunately started to think.
He supposed his partner did not
have an honor in hearts, else he
would have led it. Therefore it
appeared to him that it was
hopeless to continue the suit.
After much head shaking he
returned the trey of spades. Mr..
Dale could now see a sure nine
tricks so he went right up with
the ace and fired a club.
This meant sudden death for
Mr.. Muzzy's only entry outside of
the heart suit. At this point (too
late) he led a second round of
hearts. But Mr.. Dale had plenty
of time and wrapped up a cool
fiye-odd.
why didn't you continue
hearts at the second trick?" de-
manded Mr.. Champion.
IT thought 1t was hopeless. I"
Mr.. Muzzy replied. 81 thought
your deuce of hearts was a sim
gleton."
Mr.. Champion held his head in
his hands. How could 1t be a
singleton?" he Stormed. Don't
you remember there was sim
gleton heart on the board? So
If I have a singleton then Dale
started with six hearts to the
king-jack-nine.
with that holding he wouldn't
have been crazy enough to waste
his time bidding no-trump. He
would simply have doubled and
beat your brains out at one
heart"
Mr.. Muzzy should have re-
turned a low heart at trick two,
of course. but there is a point to
remember here. When you have
a choice between a lead that is
technically correct and a lead
that your partner of the moment
is much more likely to under
stand, it is often best to chose
the latter.
Mr.. Muzzy always leads the
honor from a holding of three to
an honor in his partners bid suit.
Mr.. Champion knew that and if
he had opened the jack of hearts
ON this hand it is probable that
he would have beaten the con-
tract.
