nervously fingered the prospectus he
had received from the medical col
lege that morning

continued, his voice tilled with bitter
ness, to be in position to afford a
medical education. But the $l2 [ get

There's Barney, Hirsh's son. Why
that boy goes to medical college just

Lena sighed. To hide the tears
which sprang to her eyes the girl
bent over the piece of cloth she was
! embroidering. Sam, with eyes star
ing into spade, failed TO see the sym
pathY which lit no her sweet face.
Sam was the son of Joseph Ratko-
WITT, a devout Hebrew, who lived
among the lore of the ancient Jewish
scholars. The old man rarely allowed
his mind to wander from the wisdom
of his beloved sages to the eXigencles
OF the present day. If. at times, he
did notice Sans restlessness, Ratllo-
WITT merely put it down as a phase
of that strange disease with which
all the younger generation were af-
flicted.

daughter. When three years old tho

steps Of the synagogue by RatkOwitz.

WITT brought Lena home, where his
good wife promptly decided to adopt
the infant
Ratkowitz had reason To rejoice
over the impulse which led him to
bring Lena into his home. The girl,
taught all the housewifely duties by
her foster mother, had stepped into
the breach when that good woman
died. She it was who managed the
home after a hard days work in
Hirsh's clothing factory. She could

bitterly.

Let me tell you. You can have the

she continued blushingIy, u would

wife of a clothing OPERATOR
The door opened and Ratkowitz en-
tered. Pausing on the threshold. he
reVerently touched the "Mezzuzah,"
after which he placed his fingers to
his lips and kissed them. 1t was a
tall, patriarchal figure which stood
surveying the scene. A snow white
beard fell from his face, its tangled
mass reaching TO his chest. The curl
in front of each ear denoted the de-
vout, orthodox jew.
"My children" he smiled benignly.
"Why all this excitement? And see,
Lena, you have not spread the table
for my coming. Nor have you come
to greet me with one of your sweet
kisses which always remind me of
my gottseilegen, Minnie. What is it
that has made YOU forget your du-
ties2" he chtded.

come the ambition to become a doe
tor. but a wage of s12 week does
not permit its Garner to amass the
sum necessary to pay for the educa-
ton. Therefore, Sam, his soul cry
ing out in bitterness, realized that
he must always remain one of Hirsh'
employees.
Lena pondered deeply over the sit
uation, while Sam commenced q ner-
vous tattoo on the table with his
fingers. Unknown to her adopted
father and to Sam, the girl had sue
ceeded in laying aside several hun
dred dollars in anticipation Of her

Sam joyously shouted. I'm going to
give up my job III that hell-hole of a
sweatshop and go to the medical
SCHOOL,"
Ratkowltz stared at his son as
though he feared the boy were losing
his mind.
"Doctor-nedical school? What
nonsense is this I hear? And where
is the money to come from to pay
for all this? Think you,' the old
man continued, that the good Lord,
blessed is His name, would shower
the money down upon you as He
showered mamma upon the children

The next few years sped by all too

1.-THE stars incline, but do not compel"
SATURDAY, MARCH IA. 1914.
To keep ills few
Test nothing new.


Astrologers read in the position of
the planets today a warning that
conditions are not fortunate for
human activities. Neptune is in n
place held to be strongly evil, while
both Saturn and Mercury are in ad-
verse aspect.
The influences are unfaVorable for
investments, and ii is not a day in
which to enter into new partnerships
or business associations.
There is an evil omen for hospitals,
prisons and all public institutions. 1t
is not an suspicious time for taking
medicines or anaesthetics.
AS the adverse aspect of Neptune
is supposed to intensity psychic emo
lions and arouse vain ambitions, ii
is well to distrust impulses, especially
If one is subject of the planet, born
between February 20 and March 20.
Secretaries, school teachers. general
accountants, clerks and tailors should
be cautious until the figure changes
Today's auguries are not good for
actors, sculptors. writers and artists
who may meet discouragements and
severe criticism.
Pilots, shippers, chambers and
others who have to do with seagoing
occupations should beware of dan
gers while Saturn is inimical.
Night workers of every grade are
subject to disturbing. vibrations,
astrologers declare, while this con-
figuratiOn dominates.
1t is prophesied that the secretary
of the navy will have to face per-
picking situations within the next
month. Severe demands will he made
upon him and he will have a chanee
to win fame by sagacity.
Omaha will attract attention by pc
culiar political complications. Flee
lions there and in other Western
cities will create unusual interest.
Fires and scenes OF violence are
predicted for New York city from
the tenth to the seventeenth Of next
month. AS there is a threatening
sign for Wall Street at this period
spectators are warned against risks
which would be comparatively safe
in ordinary circumstances.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the prognostication of rather "A trying
year Men viii find business exact
ing and women viii probably have
many domestic anXieties
Children born on this day may have
a quiet career with few troubles
Plenty of money and happy marriage
are foreshadowed in their horoscope,
but much depends upon the time of
birth.
