At the table of well known uptown ply
| stefan, whose name is by special request
| omitted, the subject Of Astrology being men
| toned excited considerable discussion.
Among those present were several celebrated
medical gentlemen, leading lawyers and lit
erary men. The host, who for a time had
taken little or no part In the discussion, at
length said that he, too, was believer In AS
trology, and, not only that, but that for years
he had been In the habit Of casting the horo-
scopes Of his patients and diagnosing their
diseases therefrom. The writer, who was one
Of his guests, and had expressed his skepti-
cism in somewhat strong terms, thereupon
asked the doctor whether all that he required
In order to cast "a nativity" was the date of
birth. That's all" the physician answered
"Of course, the more approximately you can
give me the hour of birth the more likely am
to be correct In my divinations2"
It was then arranged that meeting should
take place at the doctors residence the fol-
lowing evening, when he would not only
"cast" the horoscopes OF such persons as
should be offered to him, but would give the
history of their lives as foretold by the stars.

of fate that within eighteen months he will
