BELIEVERS IN SIGNS
SHOULD Be HAPPY TODAY
Combination of Figures Pos
sibIe Only Once in Century
Is Furnished.

IhoSe who believe in signs are given an
excellent opportunity today and tomorrow
for INDUCING their ideas. This is the
twelfth day of the twelfth month Of the
twelfth year of the century, and tomor-
row will be Friday, the thirteenth.
Today, according to almanac makers.
furnishes combination of figures posi-
bic only once during the century. A SIM
liar combination of three twelves took
place just 100 years ago today, December
l., ISL. One such day in the calendar,
with its combination of three figures ex-
actly alike, has come once each year in
the first twelve years of the past CEN
turtles.
In the lifetime of the present genera
ton. beginning with 1901, there was the
first day OF the first month of the frs.
year. IN 1902 there was the second day
of the second month, February. In 1853
there was the third day of tho third
month, March, and so on down to this
year.
According to dispatches from Chicago
today, G.. S. Faber. a civil engineer OF
that city. with a penchant for chrono-
logical dates. figures out that to be ex-
act the next time it will be possible
to get a long combination OF figures eX-
actly alike will be in 9S years. IL months.
= days. % hours and IS minutes. 1t Will
be possible then to write the exact date
10:10-10-10-10.
Long List of Twelves.
Mr.. Faber also figures that at twelve
minutes past noon today one might have
taken a firm grip on his pen and written
the date: 12:12-12-12-12. If there had
been a desire to add another u to the
date, one could have waited until II sec
onds after the minute.
Friday, the 18th. will begin at midnight

some minds, particularly those of the true
believers. always has been associated with
superstitions based on dreams of being
touched by cold. ''clammy'' hands. and
the inopportune Passage Of black cats
To the malign influence of this day will
be traced by these believers every broken
leg that is broken in the twenty-four
hours beginning at midnight tonight. 1t
will be held responsible tomorrow for
peStilence and famine and wars and
rumors of wars" wherever they exist.
Today was remarkable one in the
calendar for another impo: tant reason.
The Star printed more advertising today
than it ever printed before in a regular
daily issue. excluding Sunday. The
amount printed today is 155 columns.
Last year, on December IL, The Star
printed AS columns of advertising. and
on the same day the year before it had
1856 columns.
