"This beauty is more than akin deep claim the makers of tan lotions. It penetrates into your pigment beneath, colouring it swifty and surely." This idea worried me a little, but I'm a sured the whole thing is per- 'fectly safe.

The snag of fake tanning, as Isze it, is the cost. The colour has to be renewed every three days for it soon fades to yellow, then disappears. So if you keep if up for long your mook tan can be an expensive business.

There is nothing much to the play, but the hand does illustrate a point of play that is. very important.hah

There is an old rule of second hand low, but this time South must depart from the rule and play second hand high. The rea«. son why he must play that queen of spades at trick one is that if he does not do so he is wasting the queen completely.

Thus should he play the deuce from dummy he could win that first trick with his king or duck and wait to win a later spade
