Perhaps in actual need!" exclaimed the stay-at-home slaughter as she glanced hurriedly through a letter written by a friend of her sister's,a nurse in the big city. "I've no idea who can help me !" "I'Il call the police on the lng distance telephone." In the telephone room at police headquarters• a light flashed on the switchboard. It was a call from the distant town. "My sister Elsie is ill at her home. Please send a policeman there," a voice said, adding the address. "It is a case for quick action. I didn't know whom to call but you !" A patrolman and a trained nurse sent to investigate found the girl unconscious in her apart- ment. She was given immediate first aid treatment and removed to the hospital where she made a speedy recovery. Another serious situation saved by the magic of almost instantaneous long distance communication. What New York Is Wearing BY ANNEBELLE WORTHINGTON Itlustratecd Dressmaking Lesson 'ur- wished t?'

If the sum of these tricks is suf- ficient to defeat the contract, he should double, but not otherwise. There is another point to consider. Learn to distinguish between free doubles and forced doubles. A free double is the double of a bid, which, if successful undoubled, would score game. For example: A double of four hearts is a free double, or a double, of three diamonds when the opponent's sc.„re is nine or more at Auction or forty or more at Contract. .A. forced double, on the other hand,is a double which, if unsuccessful, would give the opponents a game they could not have. scored except for the double. For ex- ample: A double of three clubs when there is no, score and the opponents make their contract, .gives them a game instead of only 18 points at Auc- tion or 60 points at Contract. Follow this rut, : lake free doubles when you have a reasonable chance to defeat the contr€..t, but make forced doubles only when absolutely certain to defeat the contract. In case yr.ur partner hasn't made a bid, don't depend on him for tricks. Don't double, eve:. if '"*.'s a free double, unless you can defeat the bid with your own tricks. So often one hears at the card table: "Well, partner, it's a free double." Suc players double, very often .•ithout justification, mere- ly because their opponents have a game anyhow and there's not a chance to beat them.

Life Out of Me" KRUSCHEN BEAT ITr This woman was tired of trying to find something that would rid her of rheumatism. But she made one more attempt, This time it was Kruschen she tried—and of course it did not fail herr "For two or three years I was under treatment for rheumatism in my back, which took all the life out of me. I always had to go to bed until the pain had. gone again. Friends told me of different things to take, till I was tired of trying, and none of them did me any good. About two years ago I started with Krusehen Salts, and I find they keep the bowels in splendid order, and that keeps me fine. I can say with all sincerity that nothing keeps me fitter than the little daily dose of your wonderful Kruschen Salts. You can make what use you like of this letter for the sake of fellow -sufferers." G.L. No remedy can bring permanenWt relief from rheumatism unless it performs three separate functions. These are (a) dissolution of the needle -pointed uric acid crystals which cause the pain ; (b) the expulsion of these crystals from the system ; (c) prevention of a further accumulation of uric acid. a Two of the ingredients of Kruschen Salts are the most effectual solvents of uric acid known to medical science. They swiftly dull the sharp edges of the painful crystals, then convert them into a harmless solution. Other ingredients of these Salts have a stimulating effect upon the kidneys, and assist them to expel the dissolved uratic needles through the natural channel. Com- bined with these solvents and elimi- nants of uric acid are still other salts which prevent food fermentation taking place in the intestine, and thereby check the further formation of mis- chievous uric acid. Kruschen Salts is obtainable at all Drug Stores at 45c. and 73a. per bottle. A FREE TRIAL OFFER OF KRUSCHEN Try Kruechen now et our expense.

It was a slat - players the other evening, the writer ple proposition but, much to the sur - doubled four spades and defeated the prise of the writer, one of the players said, "How did you know when to double that bid? It may seem simple to you but I never seem to do the right thing at the right time. I always seem to double when they make their ,contract or I fail to double when I de- feat them by several tricks If you can tell me when to double and why, you will not only help me but many others who are in the same fix." The writer thought this over very carefully and wrote the following summary on the subject for his friend's benefit, which applies equally to Auction or Contract: A double made for the purpose of defeating the bid is a business double. Most business doubles are made, of course, after the bidding has reached such a point that it is evident they are made to defeat the contract. If your opponetns bird one heart, for example, and you double, it is only common sense that you are doubling for a bid and not to defeat the contract. Such a double is called an informatory dou- ble, made to give information to part- �nI ner and not to defeat the contract. , . Suppose, however, your partner deals and bids one no trump, second hand bids two hearts and you have the fol- lowing hand: Hearts—IC, J, 10, '7 Clubs -10, 4 Diamonds—It, 10, 9, 6 Spades—A,4, 2 Do you think that second hand can make two hearts'? No, of course, you don't. What are the reasons' for your opinion? First, your partner has bid one no trump and, if he is a sound bidder, he has indicated at least two and one-half quick tricks; that 10, tricks that will take if his opponents play the hand. Second, your own hand is worth at least two and possibly three tricks in hearts, one trick in die, mends and one trick in spades, a total of four and possibly live tricks. Add these tricks to the two you know your' partner has by his no trump bid and You obtain six, possibly seven tricks against the two -heart bid It such is the ease, shouldn't you double? ThIS example shows the process of I'thought that a player should follow in each instate before deciding to dou- , ble an adverse bid.
