The moon was called by the ancients
Luclnd, Cynthia, Diana, Phoebe. La
iona, Noctltuca, Luna and Prosperpina.
She is the nearest to the earth OF all
the planets. She terminates her course
through the twelve signs of the zodiac
in Y days, z hours and 40 minutes.
The moon is a feminine nocturnal
planet, cold, moist and plegmatic. She
causes those born under her good as

Of tender nature, lovers of all honest
employments and searchers after scien-
tlttc knowledge. These people are
naturally inclined to move about and
shift from place to place, unsteadfast,
prodigal, timid and easily frightened.
They love peace and desire to be free
from care and responsibility. Those
born under her evil aspects are liable
to lead an idle, vagabond life, careless.

In stature these natives are Of fair
size, quite fleshy, with pale complex
ions and light eyes. Generally one eye
is a little larger than the other, short,
fieshy hands and feet. Those born I'M
der the moons influence are mostly
found among the common people, such
as travellers, sailors, fishermen, hotel
keepers, brewers, store keepers gener-
ally and those having liquids connected
with their occupations. These people

palsy, collie, diseases Of the bladder.

All plants, trees and vegetables plant

vigorously. All crops that produce
their yield above the ground should be
planted in the new OF the moon. Those
that produce their yield in the ground
should be planted IN the ola of the

grated in the new of the moon. Grain
intended for future use or seed should
be harvested at the new Of the moon.

worth, O., man who remem-
bered with vivid distinctness the
battle OF Waterloo, of which he was
an eyewitness. James R. Greene was
born at Bolton, England, in 1913. In
1915 he was doing servece on the Roy
al George and he got permission to go
to the front with a brother, who was
in the Forty-fifth Regiment. Speaking
OF the battle, he said:
1t was about eleven o'clock when
Napoleon ordered up an attack on
Hougomont, the farmhouse. Time af-
ter time did the French troops charge
and as often were they forced back.
Before long the firing became general,
grand charge had been made by Mar
shall Ney. Then the terrible struggle
began IN all its horror. Thunder and
fire belched from Ney's big guns.
Shouts OF officers, charging troops, and
dying men filled the air. Kellerman 9
cavalry, English infantry, scotch
Greys, British horse with bayonets. ga
bers, big guns and little guns played
awful havoc with men and officers, but
there was no wavering. At one time
it seemed every strong position was in
the hands Of the French. Napoleon
thought fate was still striking with
him, and exclaimed to his staff:
Wellington is beaten, but his bulldog
courage keeps him there waiting for
Blucher' Grouchy, the traitor might
have kept Butcher back, or he might
have left, Wavre and reinforced Ma
poleon at Waterloo, but he was bought,
bought by British gold All Europe,
you know, was against hiZ," referring
to Napoleon.
II had strong field glasses and saw
Napoleon with his staff several times
that day. But wherever there was a
French cuirassier to attack, there was
an English or allied soldier to resist.
Such bravery and utter Indifference
to death or danger were never seen be-
fore or since. Oh, the Old Guard, the
Old Guard! How magnificent they
were! How true, how brave, but how
vain against the shot and shell of We'll
Ifngton's British reserve line. Ney lost
his horse, Maitland's Brigade did dead
ly work, and hundreds of the Old I'm
perial Guard fell at a volley. Soon
Wellington took the offensive, and just
as the sun vas setting-a late summer
evening-on an already bloody battle
field, the word was given, and the
thousands of surviving allied forces
who had stood since noon accepting the
punishment of the French, sprang for
ward and the Old Guard of France,
defeated, demoralized, decimated,
turned and fed"

VENGEANCE ON THE CUSTOMER.

You are keeping your shop open
pretty late tonight" said the GUS
toner, as he crawled into chair in an
uptown German barber shop last night.
yah, dot vas SO" replied the bar
Der, I've hat to do it. Der times vasn' t

why, how is that?" continued the
customer. 81 thought men had to be

Yah, dot vas all right" added the
barber; ''it wasn't dot der times vas
hard, budt it vas dose Italians. Dey
keep dere shops all the vile open, und
We vas no goodt ofe We don't keep open,
too"
The customer unconsciously had
touched the German barber in a very
sore spot, which was apparent in the
vigorous way in which he softened the
lather in the cup.
Dose fellers vas running the trade"
he said, as he daubed a brushful of the
lather in the customers left eye.
The man in the chair was just about
to make conciliatory reply, when the
brush reached his mouth and he be-
came too full for utterance, as the
speechmakers say.
Dose Italian shops vas her worst
ting dot could happen" added the bar
Der, as he drew the razor down the GUS
TONER'S cheek.
"Ouch!" exclaimed the victim, chat
razor is rather off edge, isn't it?'

faaa Nn,, oh

Not on your life"
Dos italian BARRIERS, dey shave for
ten cents, undt for five cents, undt dey
vas killing der business, py jimminy,"
The man with the razor emphasized
his last remark by drawing the blade
down the customers other cheek in
a way TO make the latter vince.
"Dey vas driving der business up der
spout" he continued, as he gave his
victim another scrape.
Gee whiz," exclaimed the custo-
mer, that's the toughest razor l ever
ran up against, old man. Get another,
quick"
yah, it vas too sharp" said the bar
Der, as he took up another and began to
strop it. dis Won vas all right
Il hope so,' was the reply.
"Ofe dose Italians don't stop dere
monkeyshines, by jimminy! l sell oudt
mine shop" continued the barber, as
he gave the razor a vicious swipe up
the long-suffering patrons neck.
Judas PRIEST" yelled the customer
jumping from the chair, knocking over
the barber and upsetting the fat man
who had just entered the shop. "You
are next" he exclaimed to the new ar
rival. You are just in time
He then whispered to the barber that
ne would give him a quarter to permit
MIN to finish the job himself. After he
mad cut himself in several places he
went out. vowing he would buy a safety
razor and ever afterward shave himself.
