TUESDAY. NOVEMBER II. 1914.

This is not a fortunate day, II the
stars are read Alright, for Jupiter. Sa :
turn and Mars are all adverse.
The configuration is not beneficial
to commerce. Wooden materials of
all sorts are subject to influences be-
lieved to be most unlucl<y.
Bankers are under sinister sway
read as menacing for big enterprises
and particularly bad for loans The
extreme west is especially unfortu-
nate in it's forecast,
There is a sign exceedingly men
|acing for church affairs. Great prop
lens and serious troubles are pre-
dicted for both Catholics and Profess
tants.
This is the most inauspicious day
for diplomacy, or for matters requir-
ing tact and foresight.
Mars gives warning of agitation
that may be serious in its effect upon
fhe United States as neutral coun-
try. The planets indicate long
period of conflict in Europe and MANI
perils for this country. The new moon
of this date falls in the seventh house
in which are Mars and Venus This
is not favorable for peace. Trouble
in which the navy will become in
volved is presaged. Railways are to
suffer in some way, the seers declare,
and accidents are probable.

Duty of Charitable.

We give most worthy when We as

The idle fiinging of a coin to an un-

to give to any cause which does not
wisely and economically expend its
receipts is foolish charity, In word.

Pearls and Rubies.

Pearls may be found nearly any
where in waters inhabited by oysters
or mussels. Some of Canada's fresh
water pearls have a fairly high value.
The Mississippi has also yielded valu-
able pearls. Rubies have usually come
from the East-India or Ceylon-
though South America has furnished
some good specimens. Oil wells are
really excavations into underlying
lakes or fields of petroleum, gener-
ally found on this continent just
