iF THERE is a need for all the
entries you possess into the dum
my, or into your own hand, you
should conserve th-nrt carefully.
When you find yourself in the
hand which requires the lead sev

that opportunity by leading a s-.ut
which can just as well be lead
from the other hand Use that
chance for one of the leads which
must come from that han !. and
then lead the other suit " hen you

to get the better score produced
by a major contract as against
a minor on? It happens that son**
pairs made 5-Clubs despite trump
leads by ruffing two diamonds,
discarding one on the finessed
hearts, finessing spades success
fully and losing only trick in
each minor But this pair man
aged to £<-> down at 3-Spades.
West Irci the span"1 9 to the 10.
South r.ow should have fin?ssed
hearts at once, discarded a dia-.
mond on the heart A. then led the
diamond J. If a spade came back,
xto his J. he then could have ruffed
one diamond with the spade K,
and thereafter would have lost only
one more trick in diamonds, ore
to the club A and one to East's
trump raiding.
But South, after winning the
first trick, led a diamond from his
hand When West returned a
spade he finessed the heart, dis
carded a diamond on the heart A,
but now had to shorten his own
Tumps with a heart ruff so he
Tould lead a diamond for a ruff.
Wasting that trump in his own
hand enabled East to get two
trump tricks, and so beat the con
tract.

of Fainting Attacks
By LOGAN CLENDENINfi. M. I).
THE CAUSE of :i fainting attack
is interruption of tin- Wood supply
to the brain. This results in a com- i
plete, sudden blotting out of con
sciousness, which returns gradual
ly. The mechanism behind the occa
sional fainting attack which occurs
from fatigue is s.vdden lowering of
the blood pressure. I have several
times had the experience of exam
ining life insurance applicants who
fainted from nervousness while the
blood pressure cup was actually on
their arm. The blood pressure went
down to practically zeio at the mo
ment of loss of consciousness.
The fainting of sudden < motional
shock is due to a long period when
the heart ceases to contract (asys
tole).
j Nature's Treatment
i
! The treatment of a fainting at-'
tack is that supplied by nature. A
fainting person keels over or falls
on the floor, which allow the blood
to run into the head, even if the
blood pressure is down to 7.010 and
the heart has temporarily stopped
beating. So we commonly say for
Dr. Clendening will answer
questions of general interest
only, and then o*:!y through
his column. ^
treatment, "Put the head down !
lower than the feet."' The nervous
reaction of the blood flowing into
the skull starts the mechanism of
circulation so the heart begins to :
beat and raises the blood pressure
again.
» Recurrent attacks of fair ting are
» classified by causes into the "cir
* culatorv" and "cerebral."
; The automatic nervous system;
► controls the heart and the blood
♦ pressure. An important part of the
J automatic nervous system is th"
, carotid sinus, located in the neck on
• the carotid artorv. or large artery,!
' of the neck. The tan tid sines nor- j

sinus :if. the side of the neck results
in spontaneous fainting attacks.
Certain drugs will prevent re
current fainting attacks due to
stoppage <>f the heart, and recur
rent fainting attacks due to lower
ing of the blood pressure from inter
ference with the automatic nervous
system. But in the cerebral type of
recurrent fainting attacks, there is
n> change in the blood pressure or
heart rate ar.d no drug will prevent
them. In certain very severe cases,
surgical removal of the carotid
sinus has resulted in cure.
Chronic fa inters are usually very
sensitive to changes in posture to
that if they stand or sit in one posi
tion for a long period, they may
faint merely from bodily po. ture.
We see such example:; in soldiers
standing at attention and people
watching parades.
