HANS VON BTJLOW, the famed pianist, was always irritated by the super-abundance of applause and the inconsiderate demands for en- cores after a concert. On one oc- casion he became so vexed by the continuous applause that he came to the edge of the stage and said sharply, "If you do not stop this ridiculous applause I will play all of Bach's 48 Preludes and Fugues from beginning to end without in- terruption." It worked. (The audience knew that he could carry out his threat.) BACKACHE May beWarninq BaEkache is often tensed bylazy kidney , action. When kidneys get out of order, excess acids and wastes remain in the system. Then backache, disturbed rest or that tired-out and heavy-headed feeling may soon follow.
