South can afford to lose one
trump trick-early, but not
late. His first trump play
should be a low trump from
both hands, surrendering the
trick to the enemy.
No matter what is returned,

the trumps with the ace. king

run the clubs to win the rest

The point of losing an early
trump is that dummy still has

Science Shrinks Piles
New Way Without Surgery
Stops Itch-Relieves Pain

New York, N. Y. Especially -
For the first time science has
found a new healing substance
with the astonishing ability to
shrink hemorrhoids, stop itch
ing, and relieve pain =. without
surgery.
In one hemorrhoid case after
another, very striking improve
ment" was reported and veri-
fed by doctors observations.
Pain was relieved promptly.
And, while gently relieving
pain, actual reduction or re-
traction (shrinking) took place.
And most amazing of all -
this improvement was main
tained in cases where Doctors
observations were continued
over a period of many months !
In fact, results were so thor
ough that sufferers were able
to make such astonishing state
ments as "Piles have ceased to be

a problem!" And among these
sufferers were q very wide va
riety 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-
Dyne") - the discovery of .
world-famous research institu-
ton. Already, 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 oint-
ment form called Preparation

hearts, and East takes two
tricks with the queen and ace.
East then shifts to the queen
of diamonds, and South wins
with the king.
If South is an optimist, he
draws three rounds of trumps
in the hope of getting a 3-3
break in the suit. If he got this
good break, he would be able to
win the rest of the tricks.
AS it happens, the trumps
break Az, and West is left with
a high trump after South has
drawn three rounds. South may
think he is still breathing, but
he is actually quite dead.
If South leads another trump,
West will win and go back to
hearts. If South leaves the last
trump out and tries to run the
clubs, West will trump the
third club and lead a heart.
Either way, South is down at
east two tricks.

These were the sensations of
a 24-year-old lifeguard who de-
scribed from his hospital bed
today his brush with death in

Hospital. He was sufficiently
recovered today to describe the
terrifying experience.

The first thing he knew about
trouble at the pool, Mr.. Wynn
said, was an urgent cry for help
from the pool manager. Mr..
Wynn ran for a resuscitator
and carried it to the PROSTATE

from the water.
Then, Mr.. Wynn said:
