THURSDAY. OCTOBER "a, 1914.

faVoring humanity today, for. while
the Sun and Neptune are mildly ad-
verse In the evening. Uranus, Venus
and Jupiter are strongly benefc In as
pect during the hours of greatest

ment

TUESDAY. OCTOBER ~, 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 contracts OF every sort He who
signs important documents, while this
confguration prevails, probably viii
sustain severe losses and meet with
great disappointments, the seers de-
clare.
II is an uniucky 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 81 and April 10 should be espe-
cially cautious.
Saturn Is believed to increase any
tendency toward melancholy. Dis
enlargement 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 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 avtators are destined to
win fame for daring feats within the
next year, but there viii be an unprec-
edented loss OF life it is predicted
Saturn still menaces San Francisco,
where strife or fear OF conflict with
q 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
ezacting 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.

riages, which will multiply in times OF

SUNDAY, OCTOBER rs, 1914.

After early morning the planetary
rule is unfortunate. According to the
reading Of the stars, Neptune and
the Sun are strongly inimicai 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,
1t 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 confguration.
The psychic influences are supposed
to be intensified, while this rule Of the
stars continues and they may cause
many yagaries, the seers declare.
Hospitals are under malefic sway
today. Much illness in this country
is indicated for next month.
Petrograd is again under most
sinister rule which presages illness or
trouble for the car.
Suffering among the poor will be in
tensif1ed BY severe weather next win
ter. according to the indications seen
in the stars. Churches win 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 hirthdate il is have
the representation Of anxiety during
the coming year, Business and domes-

Children born on this day probably

MONDAY, OCTOBER 2s. 1914

Astrology finds this a day OF con.
fiieting 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.
feetions
The day is fortunate one for we'd
dings and for all social entertain
ments that bring together men and
women
Miliiners, modistes. florists and ca
terers should prosper while this CON
fguration prevails.
Artists, poets. musicians and actors
are under rule held to be favorable
It is an suspicious time to originate
role or to produce new play.
Managers OF theaters are warned
that heavy losses may occur through
unforeseen circumstances which oper-
ate against them. Fires are a posi-
bility especially to be considered.
Bankers and provision dealers are
peculiarly aided by the stars, assrolo-
gers announce.
Farmers are likely to benefit great
" under this astral government, which
presages large crops next year and
extraordinary activity.
Large sales OF land in southern and
