FROM storms and Signs.
Earth is now In the House Of For
tune" and opposed by the House of
Death" Therefore while fortune is
smiling on people in some localities
Others will be in riot, starvation and
death; for the good and the evil forces
are equally divided, this month, and
there will be a fierce struggle between
them for supremacy. This same strug-
gle for supremacy will predominate in
the animal and vegetable kingdom.
Disease epidemics, riots, wars and all
things evil may astonish the world.
Last month the evil forces overpowered
the good and kept prosperity from COM
ing in. May God speed the day when
the present political paper panic shall
be crushed out of existence, and a new
declaration of business independence
be proclaimed in America, that will
contain more God and less gold!
DISEASE GERMS COMING.
The earth will move into a colosic
belt in its orbit, of extreme heat, some
time between the 1st and the 18th, and
cause break in the gaseous matter
now passing over the sun and let down
the stale heat which will debilitate
mans physical nature to weakness.
Therefore, we warn mankind to pre-
pare themselves to ward off the typhoid
germs which will abound in animal
matter; as the air will be, we have
reasons to believe, highly charged with
deadly poisOns! Mothers, be careful
what you feed your little ones and do
not give them ice cold water to drink!
Where is she, the mother, that would
| flood the dry tea kettle at red heat
| with cold water? An act which would
be no more inconsistent with the law
| of nature than the filing of the heated
! stomach of the child with ice cold
| water, with the mercury up in the nine
| ties.
THE HIGH FLOOD DAYS.
The High Flood days, best days to
plant or harvest crops-are the 5th, 9Th,
| 18th, 10th, 18th, 18th, 14th, 18th, 18th,
2Oth, 2lst, 22d, 23d, oath and 25th. The
Goth and 9th will be the time to kill
| obnoxious plants; as the vital forces at
that time undergo a change, and lose
their grip on old mother earth. Pull
out plantain leaf cut off Canada this
ties. briars, etc, Cut off tops and one
! half inch of root with a sharp hoe or
! otherwise, and you will destroy their
| growth. The 5th and 9Th will be the
| best days to set out celery plants and
| the 10TH 11th and 18th will be the next
! hest. Turnip seed should be sowed on
the 18TH 10th or 18th. The High Flood
days in rivers and streams-good days
to catch fish-are the 5th, 9Th, 7th,
10th, 18th, 18th, 23d, oath and 25th. All
fish should be killed as soon as they
| are landed never allow the fish to die
from asphyXiation, as 1t renders them
unfit for the table. See our Storm and
Sign calendar.
THE STORMS FOR AUGUST.
The extreme heat, destructive hal
storms, cloud bursts, vegetable mi.
crobes, the comet, etc, came last month
as we predicted. Now we warn you
all that there will be another break In
the sea of gaseous matter now passlne
over the sun, some time between the
1st and 18th, and cause deadly heat, de.
structive floods, unprecedented hal
storms, high gales, hurricanes, cy'
clones, tidal waves, cloud bursts, etc
Unless earthquakes are produced by
the strong magnetic currents now run
ming southwark, the Atlantic coast viii
be in danger of a tidal wave A warn
wave of insufferable severity will strik,
some sections and break the heat rec
ords, while cool wave bordering OF
frost and snow will visit others. Farm
ers living along rivers and streams may
suffer great loss this month. The lat
ter half of the month will bring strang,
phenomena and earth disturbances o.
phenomenal weather. as the sun will
be wholly enveloped in a sea of gaseous
matter and no man can foretell VIVA
the result will be.
