TUESDAY, OCTOBER 81, 1914.

Astrology reads the stars as most
unfavorable today, since Mars, Saturn
and Mercury are all strongly adverse.
The aspect is inimical to agreements
and cor tracts of every sort. He who
signs important documents, while this
CONFORMATION prevails, probably will
sustain severe losses and meet with
great disappointments, the seers de-
clare
1t is an unlucky time for journeys
upon which business success depends.
Changes of location, also, are held as
unfortunate when Mercury is in evil
aspect.
Mars gives warning that danger
turks in every indulgence of emotion
or mood, for under the rule Of the
planet as it is placed today the pas
sions are easily awakened and anger,
hasty speech and unwise acts are
common. Persons born between
March Fl and April 19 should be espe-
cially cautious.
Saturn is believed to increase any
tendency toward melancholy Dis
couragement and dependency are
likely to destroy good judgment, and
it is well to delay any matter of I'M
portance until a more suspicious gov
eminent of the stars.
There is a sign read as indicative of
Illness and death among aged men
and women who have attained promi-
nence Many accidents will be re-
corded and railway journeys may be
most unlucky.
American aviators are destined to
win fame for daring feats within the
next year, but there will be an unprec-
edented loss of life it is predicted.
Saturn still menaces San Francisco,
where strife or fear of conflict with
foreign power will cause unsettled
conditions Internal discussions may
produce remarkable results in the
coming election. Growth of popula-
ton for California is presaged by the
stars.
Persons whose birthdate it is should
pass quiet year, attending strictly
to business and domestic affairs.
Change is likely to be unlucky.
Children born on this day may be
exacting in nature and difficult to
manage. They may be opinionated
and severe in their judgments of other
persons Boys should be shrewd in
business matters, ambitious and fairly
successful. Mars is their principal
ruling planet.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1914.

According to astrology this is one
of the rare days in which the stars ex-
ert the best influences upon the in
habitants of the Earth. The Sun is
so strongly benefic in aspect that its
power dominates all the planets.
Saturn and Uranus, also, stimulate hui
man activities.
1t is a most propitious time to real
ize dreams of any sort. Ambition may
be put to the test successfully under
this sway of the chief luminary.
The aspect is promising for all who
seek employment. 1t is held that the
vibrations from the heavens stir in the
brains of the great and successful
kindly feelings and that he who de-
sires aid in any enterprise or help to-
ward any attainment will have I'M
usual chance of success.
The aspect is a lucky one for deal
ings with government representatives
of every rank. Diplomats and states
men are subject to the best leadings.
A southern man will win fame.
Literary men and scientists are
lucky, under this CONFORMATION, which
should stimulate their minds and in
vigorate their bodies. A period Of
good fortune for them is presaged
Women will be less in the public
prints than formerly during the com
ing winter, which will bring them

The viceroy of India has been
warned by London astrologers that
December will be a critical month.
Mars still threatens the inha bitants
of many European cities with epidem-

Periods of severe storm next month

cold and unsettled, thus increasing the
terrors of war.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER q, 1914.

After, early morning the planetary
reading of the stars, Neptune and
the Sun are strongly inimical and
Venus is mildly adverse.
1t is well to avoid persons whose
favor is advantageous, for, under this
figure, men and women endowed with
power are likely to be unbending and
ungracious. Visits to relatives are
not favorably ruled and may be most
unlucky.
While this aspect prevails it is well
to be exceedingly reticent, as it is
held as dangerous to impart plans that
are important or to communicate seri-
Gus intentions of any sort.
Lovers are subject to evil influences,
it is believed, and overconfidence is
probable when the Sun is opposed to
human desires.
Owing to the aspect of Neptune,
fraud and deception may cause trouble
today.
Exceedingly, persistent care concern
ing hygienic conditions is imperative
under this confguratton.
The psychic influences are supposed
to be intensified while this rule of the
stars continues and they may cause
many vagaries, the seers declare
Hospitals are under a malefic sway
today. Much illness in this country
is indicated for next month
Petrograd is again under a most
sinister rule which presages illness or
trouble for the czar.
Suffering among the poor will be In
tensified by severe weather next win
ter, according to the indications seen
in the stars, Churches will bear many
extra burdens, and philanthropic or
CARNATIONS will extend activities.
Children should be guarded with
especial care, as epidemics are again
foreshadowed. Unusual mortality
among both young and old is indi-
Gated.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the representation of anxiety during
the coming year. Business and domes-
tic affairs may present many perplex-
tiles.
Children born on this day probably
will be alert in mind, energetic and in
dustrious. They may have many dis
appointments in business or profess
sional ambitions, however

fore spring. Warning against the
prevalence of fraud In large transac-
tons is given.
Extremes of moods and fashion are
indicated as likely to prevail during
the next year. Women are subject to
a rule of the planets, which indicates
excessive gravity and excessive friv-
olity, but the balance will be in ia
vor of serious occupations and soberer
selections in dress. Modesty will
again attain favor.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury Of pleasant change and
successful travel in the coming year.
The young will marry.
Children born on this day have
lucky stars to guide them. Both boys
and girls have the possibility of ris-
ing to important positions in life.
These subjects of Scorpio may have
talent in scientific lines.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 2e, 1914.

Astrology finds this a day of con-
f1icting good and bad influences.
While Mercury, Venus and Jupiter are
in benefic aspect, Saturn and Uranus
rule strongly for evil.
Although Venus is friendly, the as
pect is not a safe one, the seers say,
for the choosing of husbands or wives,
as Uranus has power to cause strange
attractions and to create eccentric af.
fections.
The day is a fortunate one for we'd
dings and for all social entertain
ments that bring together men and
women
Milliners, modistes, florists and ca

figuration prevails.

He who would have success today
must be active in the early hours, for
after noon Mars and Saturn exercise
evil sway. In the morning the Sun
is in place strongly benef1c in it's in
f1uence.
Before afternoon the sign is most
encouraging for all who seek employ
ment. 1t is an suspicious time to push
all business affairs
Under this configuration all who
rule, whether in high or humble office.
should benefit. The president of the
United States should be particularly
fortunate.
Politicians who hold office and seek
reelection are supposed to benefit
from this aspect, which encourages
those who possess power to keep it.
Startling events in connection with
the autumn elections are prognosti-
Gated The middle West is under
rule that presages surprises. New
York has the augury of severe con-
tests that bring about unsatisfactory
conditions.
This day is not favorable time for
any enterprise in which the old are
interested, for Saturn's adverse sway
is believed to bring disappointment
and trouble to the aged.
While this aspect prevails it is wise
to avoid arguments, since Mars in evil
place is held to encourage quarrels
and to cause hasty judgments. Cali
fornia is subject to conditions that are
menac1ng, and warning is given of
possible implications with oriental
powers.
There is prophecy that wave of
spiritual enlightenment will sweep
over the world, and that this country
will be the scene Of a great conflict of
good and evil, in which greed and al
tru1sm will be pitted against each 9TH

many public movements for the bet

Socialism is under a rule that prom

will be rather lucky.
Children born on this day have their
magnetic center in the Sun in Scorpio
and their principal ruling in Mars.
They may meet many disappoint-
ments, because of chimericaI dreams.
but they should be shrewd and enter
prising in most ventures. They are
likely to be fond OF travel.

Silver Wedding Celebrated.

Members OF the Star Euchre Club
and their husbands, friends and
relatives to the number of about forty
agreeably surprised Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert Buggert at their home on
North Washington Street last Thurs.
day evening. The occasion was the
silver wedding anniversary of this
estimable couple. They had just re-
turned the previous Tuesday evening
from two weeks visit with relatives
and friends in St. Paul and we're
hardly looking for surprise party at
the time it came. The jubi]arians
were the recipients Of silver sugar
ooW1, creamer, napkin rings and other
appropriate gifts. The evening was
spent in dancing and refreshments
were served. All had thoroly enjoy
able time and it was way past mid
night before the last of the surprisers
wended their way homeward.
Miss Belle Larson and Albert
Boggert pIighted their troth in St.
Paul January 20, 1889. The bride was
native OF Christiania, Norway, and
the groom of Mankato. Immediately
after their wedding, they moved on to
a farm in the Town of Sigel where
they lived for IL years. Since then
they have made New Ulm their home.
Mr.. Buggert is carpenter by trade
and for the past few years has been a
contractor.

more than ordinarily careful about
