From Storms and Signs.

We wish to thank the press in gen.
| eral for its generous and compliment
tary comments upon the success of
our June predictions. The plane
tary conditions for the month Of July
| are not very favorable for quiet and
| peaceful month, although the High
| Flood vital forces will rule in America.
| The new moon will appear far to the
north and in square aspect to Mer-
curry and Mars and parallel to Nep-
tune. This shows great excitement
and activity and a good show of busi-
ness, yet conditions very unsatisfac-
tory, as there will be lack Of conf
dence. The cereal markets treacher-
Gus, yet having considerable strength.
The first two weeks will be favorable
for making long time investments
From the 18th to the 23rd will be the
best period for starting enterprises or
making changes. The eastern nations
will receive great affliction-wars
plaques, massacres, tidal waves, earth
quakes, airquakes and liquified air
storms. America may be fearfully
shaken up by the great magnetic and
electrical functions that will be caused
by nature in her haste to equalize
the two forces that have been playing
truant for the past two months.

cloudbursts and ground lightning that

the people, yet we want to forewarn
them of the new dangers that lie be-

that we are at a critical epoch; and.
that the century is going out amid
great changes, the result of which no
man can foretell. The world has al
ways moved in cycles OF 500 wears
each, and one of the cycles closes
with this century. The sunset. also
the sunrise, scenes this month, will
be the grandest and most beautiful
scenes that have been exhibited in
heavens high dome during the present
century No man, woman or child
