EVENING STAR ASTROLOGER
MONDAY. MARCH 2. 1914.
In the scales, Fate
Weighs love and hate.
Copyrighted, 191l

Good and bad influences balance in
the scale today, if the seers read the
stars Alright. Astrologers find that
while Mars. Jupiter and the sun are
friendly part of the morning, Uranus,
Mercury and Saturn exercise evil
power.
The influences are read as encour-
aging for persons who desire to ex-
ercise any initiative in business af-
fairs. The stars promise aid for all
who ask help from men of large af-
fairs. There is a favorable sign for
politicians who desire appointments.
sentative of the United States is
prognosticated. An assassination
may bring diplomatic troubles to
Washington.
The signs are read as unfavorable
for the health of the nation. While
great discoveries in medicine will be
announced this year, epidemics will
demonstrate that certain diseases be-
lieved to be under control are still a
menace. The stars warn government
officials of every rank at Washing
ton to be exceedingly prudent, as
many deaths are denoted.
The King of Italy is believed to be
under the scourge of Saturn, and his
policy in the Mediterranean, concern
ing which the seers have warned him,
may bring him serious trouble.
Fires and accidents in places of
amusement are persistently indicated
by the planets. A change in moving
picture methods Is also prophesied.
Loss of money will be sustained.
Woman suffrage will continue to
gain ground the seers announce, but
there will be dissensions among the
leaders in the United States.
Saturn is in place most favorable
for all whose birthdays occur in the
first twenty days of this month.
The planets presage lowered vital
ity, dependency and possible illness.
There is danger of misunderstanding
with friends and domestic unhappi-
ness, Unmarried women anre warned
against male acquaintance made
while this configuration prevails.
Persons whose birthday it is are
counseled against speculation or any
risky venture. Attention to business
will bring success this year. Both
men and women who are employed
have lucky augury for the next
twelve months.
Children born on this day probably
will not be leaders in the worlds af-
fairs but they are likely to be ex-
ceedinglyl clever, trustworthy and dis
Greet Owing to a lack of self-esteem
they may have difficulty in winning
