If THIS is YOUR BIRTHDAY
OCTOBER >.

Libra, the governing sign of the per
son who enters on this birthdate gives
character full of enthusiasm and en-
ergy and one which, for its own good,
must avoid taking sides on questions
of religion and reform, because there
is danger of going to an extreme and
becoming very impatient.
Venus gives this person an ardent
love nature, but one that suffers
much from jealousy. This man wants
all the liberty of perfect freedom in
his love affairs, but let the woman be-
ware, for he demands of her the
strictest fidelity and will make life
miserable for her If she denies this
This man despises routine and takes
big chances in business, and is a
reckless gambler.
Generous, kind and sympathetic,
this nature, however, is self-centered
and stubborn.
