Mr. President, Heal Thyself

By DAVID ELLIS

Aides to British Prime Minister John Major are noting the irony of the advice George Bush gave their boss just a few weeks ago. During a postwar meeting in Bermuda, the President noticed Major's weary appearance. "Are you wiped out?" he asked. "You have to take care of yourself, John. You must pace yourself." Bush urged Major to take a vacation, and the Conservative leader did manage a few days off at Easter. During Bush's health scare, Major returned the gesture of friendship and concern by phoning the President at the hospital.
