SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1914.

Astrologers read this as ar unim.
portant day, but the influences are
generally good. The Sun and Venus
are both in beneflc aspect.
1t is an suspicious time for confer
ences and for making plans that con-
Germ important undertakings. .,
Rulers should benefit by the conig-
uration which is believed to be conduc-
i've to broader sympathies and kindlier
motives. Kings and princes will suf-
fer from illnesses, wounds and be-
reavements, the stars indicate, and
will recognize the democracy Of grief.
The death of a royal parsonage, who
has brought upon his head the hate OF
nations, is prophesied. That he will
die from a blow or a disease which az
fects the brain Is predicted.
This day should be most suspicious
for ministers and all who desire to
benefit humanity. New work In which
Protestants and Jews will join togeth-
er is prognosticated.
There Is a sign interpreted as indi.
cative of Slavic dominion owe a great
part Of Europe and eventual trouble
with the allies of the car.
Danger Of pestilence is foreshad'
owed and New York is daily warned
to safeguard its ports. A strange dis
ease which affects the nerves Is also
proouosticated
On this day the omens for love al
fairs and romances Of every sort are
good.
Scandal at Washington is predicted.
Sensational disclosures that will dis,
turb a department in the government
are foretold. .
Educational affairs should occupy
unusual attention, II the astrologers
read the stars Alright. The colleges
will prosper greatly and will achieve
a new status through cooperation In
state affairs, the planets announce.
Persons whose birthdate it is have a
lucky omen. Financial affairs should
prosper. Those who are employed
probably will be promoted.
Children born in this day have kind
" stars to guide them. They should
be bright, active and fortunate In all
their undertakings. Girls, however,
may marry %unhappily. They should
avoid men much older than them.

1.-THE stars incline, but do not compel"
fCopyright by the Mcclure Newspaper syndicataJ
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1914.

Jupiter is in benefic aspect today,
while Venus is strongly adverse.
Astrologers read this as a day In
which 1t Is wise to push all business
enterprises. Speculation Is under a
most suspicious rule. Great fortunes
are f~oreshadowed for those who are
wise in investment.
There is a sign held to be particu-
larly favorable for all persons OF He
brew descent. 1t Is foretold that
they will attain extraordinary power
in certain countries of Europe. Honor
and fame are predicted for a man OF
extraordinary constructive and ex-
ecutive ability.
Among those who should profit by
today's confguration are cardinals,
bishops, priests and other clergymen
concerned with large responsibilities.
The death Of a high dignitary is In
dicated by the stars.
Under this aspect clothiers and
those who deal in WOODEN goods should
profit. There will be great gain for
all who manufacture black materials,
but there Is an omen read as presag.
ing a great demand for brilliant colors
as a relief from mourning.
This is an unfayorable government
for women. They will meet many diff
fculties in business and social life
in the coming six months. They will
achieve important service to human
ity, however, and gain places in new
fields Of endeavor.
Theaters and places Of amusement
may have discouragihg conditions for
some time, the seers say, but they
have the promise Of large returns be-
fore the end of the season, which will
be memorable for a number of ex-
traordinary plays.
Warning is given against the dan
ger Of pestilence in this country.
Smallpox and other contagious dis
eases are prognosticated. Children
should be guarded with the utmost
care.
Dramatists and writer's of fiction are
forewarned of a period of depression
and disbursement, but they have
the representation Of better condi-
lions within a year.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is have
the augury Of a fairly prosperous
year, but disappointment in love or in
domestic affairs Is probable. Travel
and change that will bring good luck
are ligkely.
Children born on this day may be
decidedly fortunate in life. An In
clination to be careless in dress may
be characteristic. Love Of company
and amusement are often traits Of
these subjects Of Scorpio.

Wintry Wave Passes.

Washington.-Winter's first attack,
which brought killing frosts and bit
ing temperatures to many parts OF
the country virtually has exhausted
itself. In the south some unusually
low temperatures prevailed, but warm
or weather was near. The frost line
in the East extended as far south as
North Florida. Portland, Maine,
established a new cold record for
October with a temperature of %, and
in New York the October mark Of ~
was equalled. Government forecast
ers indicated normal temperatures.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1914.

Astrology reads this as rather an
unimportant day In planetary direc-
ton, for, while in the early hours
Venus is in beneic aspect, Uranus is
mildly adverse and there Is no strong
government.
It is a fairly good day for business
projects in which women are con
cerned, but care should be exercised
to avoid misjudgment and miscalcula-
ton. There Is an influence believed
to encourage deception and to render
difficult perception Of character and
motives that actuate important moves
In business.
1t is not q good aspect for begin.
ming any work or for entering into
new business associations. Partner
ships and contracts are subject to an
evil leading.
There is said to be a tendency,
while this configurarfon lasts. to make
hasty decisions and to regret them
afterwards. Change Of mind Is more
frequent than at other times.
The seers prophesy that an era Of
feminism, in its broadcast sense, is at
hand. This has been long foretold
and, has been scoffed at by skeptics,
but the loss of tens of thousands Of
men in the war is declared to prove
that the prediction will be fulfilled.
Owing to the fact that he new
moon will fall on the cusp of the sew
enth house with Mars and Venus
therein, the prospect OF speedy peace
in Europe Is not encouraging. There
is a threatening sign for the navies
Of the world and that Of the United
States may be involved, especially in
the Pacific ocean.
The new moon for December threat
ems appalling loss Of life in the sea
and terrible railway wrecks. 1t Is
also exceedingly bad for royalty.
Death will strike many in high posi-
tion-both men and women-the stars
announce.
Neptune in Leo will cause trouble
for Italy, it is foretold. There Is also
an ominous sign for the Vatican.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is have
the augury Of rather a quiet year. Re-
movals and changes are likely to be
unlucky.
Children born on this day may be
extremely restless and disconnected
in nature. These subjects Of Scorpio
should be taught to guard against
brusqueness, sarcasm and secretive-
ness.
