A Nichols' Worth of Comment On By HARMAN United Pratt Washington, June 3 (U.R) I have at hand a letter from a fa ther who thinks his boy would make a swell p r e s i dent of the U.S. The father is C. H. Sparks of Frankewing, Tenn. He is plugging Frank H. Sparks, his son. Dad does all the talking in this piece. The first Sparks thinks that as Human Nichols a p o 1 i t ician anH vnta - sof ter, his lad has no peer. Particu larly in his appeal to the girl. He loves the ladies, and from all reports from Tennessee way they feel that way, too. As his pop puts it: "He's a killer with the women folks. He is a master of subtle flattery. He can play on the list- MEDFORD TODAY FAIRGROUNDS BEATTYJ IJjdllA This year presenting the Moil Stupendous Amy of St and Features in All Circus History, including CLYDE BEATTY IN PERSON WITH THE LARGEST MIXED GROUP OF WILD AND FEROCIOUS MAN-EATING LIONS ANO TIGERS IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD.

But, in his way of thinking, the party comes first and the devil, or whoever, can have the hindmost. Hat Own Ideas Our candidate has his Ideas about the foreign situation. He'd just forget about the whole business as something too hot and complicated to handle. And as for national affairs, he says that the only jerk he would be interested in would be one Frank H. Sparks, who would draw a regular paycheck for just being F.H.C. This paycheck, according to his blueprint, would be the only check issued by the government and would save us tax-givers a lot of dough. Our man has everything all figured out. Shift for ThemulvM Everybody but the president would shift for himself. The army and navy would be paid off in beer and pretzels, cokes, smokes, and convertibles. No checks, the autos to be do nated by dealers. As for taxes well, we'd have a crap game around the country every Saturday night with the Sparks gang conducting things with a small cut from each pot to take care of the president's salary. All other taxes would be abol ished. I read Daddy Sparks' letter with great interest. But apparently he has never betn to Washington. He dejesn't know anything about red 1ape. If his son campaigned on such a platform he would go down squirming. Nobody in this town could pos sibly shift for himself. Law Would Interfere The law would come running to bust any crap game or give aways for convertibles to the army and navy people. And you've got to have some idea about foreign problems and labor and industry and the busi ness of whether we ought to sell peanuts and wheat or give 'em away. Sparks Sr., lets me down in the last line of his letter. He says a lot of things about squar ing a circle. His boy, the "man" heJias in mind for candidate, was born in 1945 and knows what war is like in case we have another one. The "candidate" is all of five now.

M.D. Reader should address inquiries tot Dr. William Brady. 265 El Csmine, Beverly Hills. Calif. HOW'S YOUR LIVER COMPLAINT? I have long suspected I might have liver trouble, snipes a masked person from ambush. What would you advise for it? The sniper, of course, does not sign his or her letter. Hence I do not take it serious ly. But it may serve as a theme for a few drizzletory remarks. When I was a boy on Chap el street in Can- Or. Brady andaigua in the good old days there was little distinction at tached to liver complaint. You could step into Simmon's drug store any time, choose an alman ac from the assortment kept in readiness, open it at almost any page and there you were. Even along Chapel street, which was never nearly so snooty as Gibson street, although I daresay, a cut above some other streets we need not mention here, there was a case or two of lazy liver, sluggish liver, liver trou ble, liver complaint, too much bile, thick bile, bile on the stom ach, yellow bile, green bile or black bile in every house but one. That unbilious house was the Brady place. We just couldn't af ford liver pills, that's all, not when senna leaves and salts were so cheap. For the record (I'm proud of it now) let me repeat that in those days the Brady family, usually seven persons, lived and lived well on a monthly income of $35. That was a feat even when eggs were nine cents a dozen and round steak (better than any so called steak you can buy today) was three pounds for two shil lings. This sniper's suspicion that he or she has liver trouble would not interest a doctor if the sniper removed his or her mask and 6 DAYS Starting Tomorrow Night! AUSPICES SPORTSMAN'S CLUB MATINEES SAT., SUN , CENTRAL POINT LAST TIMES TODAY IN PHOENIX consulted the doctor in the open. Such notions merely waste time when one seeks medical ad vice. You dumb laymen do not listen to what I tell you again and again, or, if you listen, you dismiss my advice as applying to other people's troubles, not to yours. Nevertheless I'll tell you once more. When you consult a physician leave your own funny notions as to the cause and na ture of your trouble out of it. You are not paying the doctor for the satisfaction of impressing him with your superior knowl edge of medical matters, are you? If you inflict your sopho moronic views upon him you may be sure you are boring him and when the doctor is bored in that way he cannot help wishing to get rid of you as soon as pos sible. Don't approach the doctor with your asinine suspicion that you have liver trouble, bad nerves, too much acid in your system, eyestrain, weak blood, a sinus condition, high blood pressure, gout or mucous colitis. A person with common sense begins the interview with the doctor by telling the doctor what ache, pain, fear, incident or oth er symptom or occurrence brings him or her for advice. In other words the patient should tell the doctor what he or she complains of, not what he or she thinks a doctor would diagnose. We are assuming, of course, that you consult a good doctor. Other wise, if the doctor you select is one who likes to play along with gullible customers and wiseacres by agreeing with the ready-made diagnosis and prescribing what he or she thinks the sucker wants . . . well, that's your funeral. Now that I have got this black bile out of my system maybe we'll have something more help ful to say about liver trouble in the next talk on this subject. .QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Chalazion In lower eyelid.

June 4, 1950 ....AROUND By VIRGINIA United Press Hollywood, June 3 (U.R) Housewives make better custo mers than movie queens, Dress Designer oleve Stanford said today, because they pay their bills on the dot. And that's something you never hope for with the glam our gals, he added. You're lucky if they pay cm at all. "That's why I chanued mv whole business," Stanford said. "I used to sell $300 dresses to famous actresses. Now I make $20 ones for housewives. And I'm earning ten times as much this way." Stanford drifted in designing after winning the Norwegian ski championship. He worked in trance ana New York and then spent a couple of years in swank Beverly Hills dress shops. Then he "got the message" about queens in arrears. You lose 80 per cent." he sighed. "First you have to main tain a fancy address with a lux urious establishment. Stars won't go into a bargain base ment shop. When thev aet behind on their bills you lust carrv them. that's all. You- can't ask them for the money you'll lose a customer. Thev keeD fonrettink to pay up. And after a year, the way lhey figure, they don't even owe it to you." Hasn't Lost Yet Two years of this and Stan ford started his own business. Now he manufactures inexpen sive dresses and suits and he hasn't lost a cent so far. "And the funny part." Stan ford grinned, "is this: I've seen many of my $20 gowns in Ciro's or the Mocambo on very fam ous stars. They change them a little . . . add a flower ... or stick on some diamond clips. But they're still my dresses."

Don't Make That Much "They just don't make that kind of money any more," Stan ford says. "And they aren't working as often." That's why none of his outfits sells for more than $20. He fig ures nobody's as well-heeled as they were in the war years. "But almost any girl has a $20 bill in her purse," Stanford added. "Or knows where she can get one. I sold 10,000 suits in the past six weeks for $17.95 each." That's almost $180,000 he rudaui rxi GOMEZ CLARK FAYLEN NORIEGA PLUS LATEST NEWS and Popeye Cartoon 0M, ro" . .
