Man About
Manhattan
By UEOUUB IL'CKtH
NEW YORK. 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-.

up a (tlobe of the world. He came

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

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

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.

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

Answer Speaking as a One-eared

on beating me to It, and not all of
them are deaf in the left ear either

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.
