| Women should be cautious today.
| Those in business should not take
any financial risks.
The aspect is not a lucky one for
marriages or engagements. Ro.

ration prevails will bring heartaches,
the seers believe.
Actors and theatrical managers
may find the sway unlucky. 1t Is
not a fortunate time for first per-
formances.
London astrologers predict that. as
soon as the Sun enters the sign Libra
this month, sickness will become
prevalent among royalties and other
distinguished persons in Europe. The
prophecy is that the half-mast flag
will be seen often.
Austria will be under inimical

Persons whose birthdate it is may
have year that harnesses them. BY
taking extraordinary care of health
and business they may succeed fairly
well.
Children born on this day may have
too great a love of pleasure. They
should be taught systematic, frugal
habits. They are likely to be bright
and witty.

It is far cry to the next presidential election, to

with the events which yelled from human knowl-
edge. And who shall say what the issues of 16
will be?
Issues may grow out of the European war, now only

tn Canadian Pacific railroad an
nounces that by 1916 the double-tracll
tunnel, five and a half miles long,
through the Selkirk Mountains will
be completed. This tunnel will be the
longest on the western hemisphere,
and is being built at a cost of about
$4,000, 900.
BY placing the tunnel in operation
the Canadian Pacific will shorten its
main line to the Pacific coast by six
miles, will eliminate five and a half
miles of snowsheds reduce the peak
of grade 513 feet and do away with all
but six miles of 90 grade. On its en-
tire system of more than 10000 miles
in Canada it will have but dozen
miles of 30 gradient. The latest sys-
TENS of electrification are to be used

Mount Macdonald, in the southern
part of the province of British Column

This mountain is one of the giant
peaks of the Canadian Rockies and

pedient to the highest efficiency in

dian Rockies. The present route, how
ever, will be used for the summer
tourist travel, as, although presenting
difficulties from an operating stand
point, it is very beautiful.
The tunnel will be used in winter
by all trains and in the summer by
fast mail, express and freight trains.

1t is the workingman who is not only compelled
but also bear the principal burden of the cost
of war. No matter how the cost is assessed it is
filtered down to him. The workingman who gorfes

In city today thousands of workingmen are
at liberty celebrating the labor holiday. They are
care-free There is no enemy knocking at the gate
and there is conseript system to tear them from

there is no such thing as American "reservst."

people of Europe besides subjecting them to great

From the New York Times.
The strongholds of eastern Prussia
which the Russian armies are about
to attack are also strong in memo
ries. Koenigsberg, it's great forts of
the Kaserne Kronprinz on the east
and of Friedrichberg on an island in
the Pregel, within ramparts flanked
by lines of six forts each on either
bank of the river, is one Of the most
important commercial cities of Ger
many. In its schloss Frederick I.
and William l. were crowned King
of Prussia. Albert l. founded here
in 1914 the great University of Koe-
nigsberg, wherein Kant, j. G. Won
Herder, Bessel, F. Neumann and
Herbart have taught. The towns
part in the Hanseatic League is part
of the commercial history of the
world.
Thorn, called the Queen of the
Vistula,'' and "the beautiful" had
its ,"blood bath" in 1924, when re-
ligious war made it part of Poland.
Copernicus was born there. 1t also
was one of the great Hanse towns,
and it's place commanding the head
of the Vistula occasioned the deci-
sion to make it fortress of the first
class after the Congress of Vienna
created it a permanent possession of
Prussia. Thirteen forts built in 1878
will defend Thorn against the cars
forces.
Fortifications, with ramparts, bas-
tions and bitches flank Danzig, still
flourishing under its aspect of the
Middle Ages. There are the old
Hanseatic houses; there is the Ro-
man arched Hohe Tor, and the
Junker-Hof of the merchant princes
The town is one of the chief in man
ufactures, in shipbuilding, and 1t is
one of Germany's armories.
