Perhaps in actual need!" exclaimed the stay-at-home daughter ;is 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'll call the police on the long 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. . >. ,***, to pity Britlff *^ AUCTION < CONTRACT -^ Wynne Ferguson Author of -ntACTICAI.

S Spades fi. 5, 3 ix of i lie seven While playing with some very good Uj*n the other evening, the writer doubled four spades and defeated the contract by two tricks. It was a sim- ple proposition but, much to the ur- prise 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 fall 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. of tricks in his own hand and those indi- cated in his partner's hand by the bid- ding. If the sum of these tricks is suf- flclent 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 s< 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 nil : lake free doubles | \.-hen you have a reasonable chance to defeat the contr: t, but make forced : doubles only when absolutely certain to defeat the contract. In case y 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: "Wo'l. partner. It's | a free double." Sue players donble. ' very often Ithout ju .tiflcation. mere- ly because their opponents have a game anyhow and there's not a chance to beat them. Ttls Is particularly bad i at Contract, for a redouble Is very costly. Another point to remember is this: Original irids always give exact in- formation and. if * d, should always indicate at least two and one half quick tricks, irrespective of 'e suit or no trump bid. On the other baud, the cards of the remaining pla; rs are not, as a rule, suhje to surh exact valuation. For i':a reason, as be- tween partners, it should be the duty of the partner of the original bidder to double, rather than vice versa. He knows what the original bidder has, whereas the original bidder can only guess as to his partner's holding". The foregoing summary will give a fair basis for sound business doubles and. If properly applied, will produce many a big penalty. RHEUMATISM IN HER BACK " Took All the Life Out of KRUSCHEN BEAT IT! This \vi man was tired of trying to flnd something that would rid her of rheumatism. But she made one more attempt. This time it was Knisdien she tried and of course it did not fail her. " For two or three years I was under treatment for rheumatism in my bark, which took all the life out of me. I always liad 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 Knischen Salts, and I flnd they keep the bowels in splendid order, and that keeps me fine. I can RV with all sincerity that nothing keeps me fitter than the little daily dose of your wonderful Knischen Salts. You can make what use you like of this letter for the sake of" fellow -sufferers." Mrs. W. G.L. No remedy i-an bring permanent relief from rheumatism unless it performs three separate functions. These are (a) dissolution of the needle-pointed uric add crystals which cause the pain : (6) the expulsion of these crystals from the system : (c) prevention of a further accumulation of uric acid. - Jfe^ Two i.f the msmlifnts "f Knischen Salts are the must effectual solvents of uric acid known to medical science. They wiftly 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 arid are still other scJts which prevent food fermentation taking place in the intestine, and thereby check the further formation of rur:- rliievous uric arid.

So that all you have to , .... ' I CASTORIA Most business doubles are made, 01 1 m i n .i course, after the bidding has reached ! such a point that It is evident they are ; made to defeat the contract. If your opponetns bid one heart, for example, and you double. It is only common sense that yew 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- 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 K, J, 10, 7 Clubs 10, 4 Diamonds K, 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 j one no trump and. It h is a sound bidder, he has Indkvted at least two and one-half quick tricks; that Is, Ticks 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 dla- monds and on* trick in spades, a total of four and possibly five 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 If such is the case, shouldn't you double? This example shows the process of thought that a player should follow in '.ich Instance before deciding to dou- iile an advene bid. He never should double until h* ba addsd up tk fitek do is to keep yourself right. Never the world. Let it say what it It can do you nn. damap. TaI- !
