TAKE A CARD You, too, can do card tricks and you don't need any special para phernalia, mafic wand or murabo Jumbo. Just a deck of ordinary play ing cards and a fellow conspirator. - Now try this card trick. "Tap Happy," on your friends next time you attend a party. Take any nine eardt from the \ deck wtoUa, p making cer 1 tain to in clude one Nine (Nine of Spades, Nine of Diamonds, eJc ). Lay them out, fact up, la the form of an "H" <ai shown in the illustration). Have your accomplice leave th? room while you get one of your audience to select one of the cards in the pattern ? without removing it, of course. Then call your assistant back in. Without speaking a word, proceed to tap each ?f the cards once, one at a time. Your partner gets his clue in where you tap the Nine card. You see, the pattern of the pips on the Nine card corresponds to. the pat tern of your nine-card layout. Thus, if someone has selected the Four o i i Spades In the lower right-hand cor-. | ner, you tap the lower right-hand t pip on the. Nine. Where you tap th? t other cards makes little difference ' but you should try not to make your I tap on the Nine any different than I your others. Your accomplice should wait until > alter you have tapped till the oardr ' before he tells what card has been - selected. * \ You will- And that around the third or fourth time you do the trick everyone in your audience will have ' bis own pet theory as to how it 1 'work*. Ton can alter the trick by using more than one tap per card, by having more than one nine in the i layout, or by many other variations. "Tap Happy" is one of several ' card tricks contained in a colorful, 1 illustrated booklet, "It's All in the Cards," recently published and of fered in exchange for on Ace of Spades from an old or used deck In addition, the booklet contains some interesting facts about the little known history of cards, suggests some exciting variations on old games, lists a few unusual uses for oards and otherwise provides count less ways for you to get more fun out of your deck of playing cards.

Morning Weariness and Thyroid Deficiency People who feel fatigued when arising in the morning after a sound sleep, and then slowly recover stamina during the day and feel brightest and most energetic when it's time to return to bed at night, may be suffering from a mild thyroid deficiency described by doctors as "the kur\nmofakn1i? Ctfoto " ^ Some of these people chronically complain of vague aches and pains, and have been labeled un justly as hypochondriacs, neurot ics, or anxiety personalities. Actually the chemical processes in their bodies which convert food into energy are operating at a snail's pace. Doctors believe that the slowdown results from a short age of thyroid hormone in body tissues Other commonly encountered symptoms indicating this form of hypothyroidism may be an intoler ance to cojd, brittle nails, dry skin, lack of perspiration and, inVom en, menstrual disorders. In a seven year study conducted by Dr. B. A. Watson of Clifton Springs, N. Y., published'recentty in 'the New York State Journal of Medicine, it was found that. wo men are much more prone to this state than men, and also that its inci dence increases with age. Of almost 16,000 patients ad mitted for* various complaints to the Clifton Springs Clinic and San itarium, Dr. Watson found that more than 200 were suffering from the hyppraetabolic state. The high est -rate was among patients in their forties and fifties, In Dr Watson's opinion: "Physicians should eonsider the diagnosis, of hypometabolic state beYore label inf a chronically complaining pa tient as a psychoneurotic, hypo chondriac, anxiety state, etc." ' The investigation confirmed the growing belief that a subnormal metabolic rate is not the only in dication of thynftd deficiency as > had been generally assumed. The morning tiredness, aches and pains j were much more reliable signs of j the condition. Trial treatment with . I dried thyroid given orally was found to be a reliable method of > J diagnosis. If the symptoms disap- 1 pea red, the hy-pemetabolic state ' ! was presumed present * Continued' treatment with dried thynoid, or with a purified thyroi'd extract in tablet fonn called P'ro loid, produced lasting" improvement in ? majority of patients, restor- . ing .a feeling of complete well being in very many. As a test, treatment was discontinued tem porarily in a few patients 'Their symptoms returned almost imme diately, but were controlled hkhiii when treatment was resumed.
