CONTRACT BRIDGE

Generally when a person picks up a hand containing two good sults, he immediately starts to plan on going places with the hand. How. ever, I believe that the first thought that should come to your mind when you pick

The Bidding
South should open the bidding with one heart. North will bid a apade. East is not going to in- terfere with that, and South should bid two diamonds a highly con- structive bid which practically forces his partner to bid again.
West will pass the two diamonds, North should now realize that he and his partner have shown three Buits and have not found the safety of the hand as yet. To bid clubs might force his partner to try to play the hand at no trump. He the club should forget all about suit and immediately try to sign the hand off with a bid of two spades.

UNSUSPECTED CONSTIPATION

For it is a fact that an overloaded and neglected food canal will quickly and inevitably lead to a multitude of Ills, the true cause of which we rarely recognise. The sole purpose of Eno's 'Fruit Salt' is to check this evil-safely and harmlessly. Acting in the same way as those. natural salts which should be-but are not-... present in modern diet, Eno gets rid of all waste matter before it has time to stagnate and become polsonous. Take Eno first thing every morning.
