THE STORMS AND SIGNS
All cf the destructive storms that occurred last
month came upon the very days that we had
the danger signals displayed on our Storm and
Sign calendar. During the current month tho
regular storm periods will occur between the lst
and sth, the llth and 18th and the 18th and
18th; and the reactonaiy storm periods between
the sth and 1lth. the 10Th and 18th and the
2jth and 31st The new moon will occur on
the Goth, and the planets will then be in posi-.
tiOn to cause high gales and destructive showers
in many parts OF the country, just before, on,
and after that date. Hurricanes will continue Ia
sweep the seas, and the great lakes. Watch out
for sweeping storm that will come upon us
without any warning from the weather bureau.
While billiards are raging in all their fury IN
the western and northern states, the eastern aud
middle states will DE enjoying sunshine and
showers; and while the wild winds and billiards
are raging in the eastern states, the western
states will undoubtedly see strange appearing
electrical storms with thunder vibration accom-
panment.
COMING EVENTS.
The planets are in good position this month
to stimulate the minds OF capitalists; and many
failures in business will be caused by their
pull" on business 6nns that have loaned money
of them. The great religious revival that began
last month, as we predicted it would. will coa.
tinue TO grow in interest until it swpassess all
former records The current month will wit.
ness the beginning Of the grandest reform move.
ment against vice and crime that this world has
ever experienced! The dabolical crimes that
will be committed all over the world will be
awful in the extreme; for the old led-warrior
Mars is now in a low.ebb sign, with no good
planets near to cheek his thirst for crime ana
bloodshed; and his evil influence will undoubt.
edly cause many accidents, conhagrations, muir
ders, suicides, etc. Watch the reports of crime
this month and see how far we are out OF the
way in our reading of the planets influence on
the minds of men! The la'grippemonia. pnen.
monia, smallpox, feyers, etc, will undoubtedly
increase in virulence under the reign of Mars.
