The most fascinating and hilarious party game I have ever played Is the game of Famous l-ov-rn. You ulav It like this: Tha hostess gives out duplicate sets of numbers. And If you net. say, No. 6, then the girl who receives that number la your partner. After partners have been deter mined, the host ens gives out ; third set of slips with the nnmrs of famous lovers written on them. For Instance, one TUCKtR slip may have Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hnra. But you aren't supposed to tell the others whom you represent. When each couple has been des ignated as a pair of famous nnmra in fiction or history they take turns In acting out a tittle skit which Identifies the lovers In question. With the reAt of the gathering aa an audience, one pair at the party 1 attended went out Into the kit chen and rigged themselves up thusly: The girl thrust some flowers' Into her hair. The man rolled his pants up above hla knees. Then with ttw host as a helper waving a broom owr his head, that la to say, fanning him as Nubian slaves fanned their mis ters years ago, the mnn and the girl came Into the room. They put a cracker box on the floor and th girl sat in it and reclined na grace fully aa possible. The box was sup posed to represent a harRp on the River Nile, so overybody cherrrd and shouted, "Antony and Cleopatra." Another couple went out and whui the man dashed upstairs and appro priated his host's cutaway, the p(rl quickly parted her hair in the cen ter. Then she came back into thi room and sat demurely on a couch Manwhtle the man fashioned him-. self ft make-believe crown and picked up a (tlobe of the world. He came In and hUd out his arms, hut she shook her head. Then h took off bis crown and threw It on the floor. Because, there in no smoke in the fWirnn as AiiL'iist ncai's looks .- - - o between Medlord and Kiigene, r i. 1 l.A.. lota hiirWnv with 'California license 1 r , get together as they proceeded Next he tossed the globe Into a far corner. Indicating his willingness to throw away the world. And every body then know they were looking at Edward and Waaly. There were some very funny por trayals. I was Capt. John Smith and my partner was Pocahontas. I found her a fur cap. which I hoped looked like a Daniel Boone coon skln, and my pnrtner put on the Jacket of a child's Indian suit and put a feather In her hair. The host bound my arms and threw me on the floor. Just as he was about to tomahawk me. my Indian princess came tripping In, shrieking: "Don't kill him. oh. Chief; I'll marry htm." Among the others which camo in for some hllarloxis burlesque were Prlscllla and John Alden ("Sprak for yourself. John" ) ; Romeo and Juliet (the vault scene where Ro meo, believing Juliet dead, swallowa poison, only to have her return to consciousness and stab herself 1 Katharine and Petrucclo ("Taming of the Shrew"), and Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester. It was certainly a sxiccessful party, and the Idea, Insofar as my hostess knows, hasn't been used before. At least none of tis had ever heard of It. It was something she Just hap pened to think up.

CAUSE ANn TREATMENT A non-lnflammatorr conic, pro trusion of the centre of the cornea or front of the eyeball Is called conical cornea or kerato conus. It Is not fre quent, and oc curs usually In young women. It never causes any serious trou ble, but generally produces consid erable myopia or nearsighted n e a and astigmatism. It is difficult to give satisfactory 81 vision no matter how carefully glasses may be fitted nor how often they may be changed. Heretofore the most effective treat ment has been electrocauterlzatlon to flatten the apex of the cone and give a more nearly normal curvature of the cornea. Recently It has been found that keratoconus may be produced In animals which are fed with a diet deficient .n calcium and vitamin D. Twelve patients with keratoconus Have received calcium and vitamin D to supplement their ordinary diet. Of these cases, reported by Drs. Ar thur A. Knapp, all have shown Im provement and by accurate measure ments at regular Intervals over a period of many months a reduction In the height of the cone was re corded. The amount of calcium required vnrlea Inversely with the amount of milk, cheese, beans, peas and other high-calcium foods In the diet. The nmount of vitamin D for each pati ent averages around 30,000 units. As Dr. Knapp remark: The ad ministration of vitamin D and cal cium In this condition hsa given gratifying results. In fact, the re sults apparently are so encouraging that It may be we have come upon a factor or the factor In the etiol ogy of this perplexing condition. Once more. I have a monograph which la available to any correspond ent who aska for It and Incloses a three -cent -stamped envelope bearing his address. It la High Calcium Diet, Calcium Feeding and the Vitamins Everybody Needs. It glvea detailed instructions for taking calcium and phosphorus and the sunshine vitamin D which la essential for the metab Comment on the Days News By FRANK JENKINS IN these days, there la much talk of benefiting the common man making his life pleasanter and fuller and Increasing his purchasing power. Demagogue politicians talk louder than anybody else, proclaiming un ceasingly that they are the common man's ONLY FRIEND. They are mistaken. Everybody wants to Improve the lot of the common man, because the common man Is EVERYBODY'S BEST CUSTOMER, THIS writer, a very small business man, sella MANY newspapers to common people; VERY FEW to big shots, General Motors, which la big busl ness, sells vast numbers to little people, and comparatively few to the big bugs. Likewise In the case of Ford and Chrysler. The American Telephone and Tele graph company ts big business. It sells telephones. MOST OF THEM are se'd .o little people. LITTLE people are the backbone ox all business, because there are so MANY OF THEM, and the more prosperous they are the more pros perous all business Is. The Idea that business wants to hold little people down is ABSURD. DEMAGOGUE politicians. In real ity, have done very little for common people except to put vast numbers of them on relief, but they have MADE THEM THINK they are doing EVERYTHING for them. Conservative, honest business, on the other hand, haa been of IM MENSE benefit to common people, providing increasing numbers of Jobs at steadily increasing wages and raising American standards of liv ing far above living standards else where In the world. But business haa been so DUMB that It has permitted scheming dema gogues to convince vast numbers of common people that conservative, honest business is THEIR ENEMY. IT is up to business to GET SMART. It must convince Uttls people (which Includes the bulk of alt of us) that its Interests are Identical with thelra. That la the plain truth, and every buslnesa man In America, big or little, knows It. But the public DOFSN'T know XX. because tha public haa been listening to the politicians. And the politician, unfortunately, are more Interested in PROVIDING RFLIEF than in providing Jobs, be cause votes come easier that way. Or CONICAL CORNEA olism, absorption, utilization of these elements in the body. We may say of the calcium vita min D treatment of keratoconus that even If It falls to do any good at least It can do no harm. Notwith standing some earlier theoretical fears, we are satisfied now that dally consumption of from 10,000 to 60.000 units of vitamin D over a period of months or years la absolutely harm less. As for taking calcium and phos phorus to supplement the diet which la generally deficient In these ele ments, It may be accepted aa estab lished that If more than the body needs or can use to advantage U taken the excess Is readily excreted and never deposited In any tissue where it la not needed.

Tribulations of the Deaf. Says Dr. Wendell C. Phillips In Federation News, official organ of the American Federation of Organis ations for the Hard of Hearing, Inc.. Washington, D. C: You owe no one an apology for your deafness; but you do owe every one thoughtful consideration In mak ing communication easy and natural. Answer Speaking as a One-eared wretch, I'm willing to make a race for the seat on the extreme left, but dan" It all, a lot of people insist on beating me to It, and not all of them are deaf in the left ear either (Copyright, 1038, John F. DUle Co.) Ed Note; Persons wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady should send letter direct to Dr. William Brady, (VI. D., 265 BJ Camlno, Oeverlj Hills, Calif. per of Florida and Lister Hill of Alabama, the vested Interests of southern politics have been uncom fortably threatened. That was why there was such a concentration of forces against Maverick. The San Antonio city machine, an unappetiz ing miniature of Hague's Jersey City Juggernaut, swung into action. Its wheels were well oiled by Liberty Leagulsh money. Its henchmen bel lowed the old appeals to prejudice. And Maverick was defeated. Meanwhile, O'Daniel .was touring Texas with a sound truck and a hlll-bllly band, entertaining the voters with a continuous vaudeville act. Interspersed with political max ims of the hayseed comedian brand. At this distance. It's Impossible to make a complete estimate of O'Dan iel, but there can be no doubt his appeal was based on the frivolous goo fine as which has been the curse of southern politics, and the frivo lous gooflness won. If the Texas pri maries mean anything, they mean that the south la self-condemned to be ruled by the Bilbos and Huey Longs, the Tom Blantons and Tom Hefllns. The Texas primaries also have con siderable Immediate significance. The O'Daniel allies are nqt known, but hla goings-on about business men in government seem to indicate that his friends must be conservative. And the results of the congressional races are clearly a conservative tri umph. Not only' waa Maverick beat en, w. d. McFnrlane, another 100 per cent New Dealer, also blessed by the president, waa nosed out by voluble pensioner. And all the Texss eonservatlvea were easily returned to their places in the house. When the president was enjoying a continuous ovation on his way through Texas, It looked as though Jack Garner's goose were cooked. The canny old vice-president, busily fishing at Uralde. may have chuckled at the Idea. But. to most people, it seemed that the inhabitants of Gar ner's own state would refuse to follow their champion If he should lead an anti-New Deal rebellion. Now, however, with the conservatives still on the payroll and Maverick and McFarlane destroyed, it begins to look as though Oarner could carry the south along in a battle for control of the Democratic party. fhhU of course,, la th real prise at stake. In Georgia and in South Carolina. It will be possible to see how the president reads the lesson of Texas, Even before he left on his fishing trip. It had been decided that he would come out openly tn Georgia against the conservative. Senator Walter F. George. An opportxinlty waa arranged. A speech waa even prepared. Nrw he may decide that the whole effort ts hopeless, and feed hla speech to the Pacific fth. One thing U sure If he gives up the batt. he will resign control of the outa into tbt hands of his enemies.
