THE stars incline, but do not compel
Be not of love too sure

Be not of love too sure
Zen though Venus may lure.
Until afternoon this day may be
unfortunate, astrologers announce.
for although in the early morning
Saturn and Jupiter are in benehe
aspect Mars and Neptune rule for
evil. Venus is friendly, but the
malefic influences are strong enough
to cause complications and dis
apo ntments.
When Mars is inimicai, accidents
are believed to multiply. 1t is not
an ausp cious time for beginning long
journeys.
Difficulties and obstacles are likely
or removals, while this aspect pre-
walls.
1t is wise to cultivate poise and to
control the emotions until this rule
s past. New acquaintances should be
avoided and tact should be employed
in dealing with friends. as impulsive
speech and hasty judgment are com
mon when Mars is adverse. Persons
born between March q and April
20 are held to be peculiarly suscepti-
bic to the vibrations of this planet.
The aspect is not favorable for
domestic peace. Men should control
the impulse to be egotistical and
domineering.
With Neptune at enmity with the
world astrologers believe that special
care should be taken to guard against
infectious diseases. The greatest
watchfulness in preserving cleanly
conditions is counseled.
There is a sinister sign for new
partnerships or associations Caution
should be the guide during this day,
the seers declare.
Under this rule a desire for luxuries
is said to be intensified 1t is a
most dangerous sway for women
Loss Of influence and discourage
ment will be experienced by certain
militant leaders abroad and disagree
ments among suffragsts in the
United States will multiply. but the
stars promise great progress for the
votes for women movement.
A woman who is famous in the
Middle West will meet with serious
criticism before summer. Her health
will be affected by dsappo ntment,
astrologers declare.
Persons whose birthdate It is have
the forecast Of many changes within
the year. They will prosper by re-
moVals and will gain by travel but
they may lose money and meet with
severe reverses of fortune.
Children born on this day will :

ther Tie Young lord was naturally
melancholy, and the LAWYER pro-
posed visiting a theater opposite,
which proposition was accepted.
There was a slight fire in the thea
ter, whereupon the young lord was
among the first to bolt, like rab-
bit" out Of the building. Return
ing leisurely to the club, Mr.. VII
iams found there his young friend
quietly smoking a cigar.
"What on earth made YOU bolt
that way? You seemed frightened
out of your wits (not a difficult mat
ter perhaps). Don't You know that
on such an occasion if everybody
got up and rushed out panic would
ensue, with very likely fatal conse-
quences? Why on earth couldn't
you sit still, as | did? There was
nothing serious the matter" Upon
this, with the most patronizing air.
the young gentleman replied, "Oh,
yes, that's very well for you, but
you've not just succeeded to a peer
age snd 100000 a year" 4

SLIPS OF THE TONGUE
Even the oisnified English Butler CsK
Go Astray at Times.

90 Astray at Times
A little story which has just
found its way across the Atlantic
from an English country house tells
OF the recent slip made by new
and nervous butler in serving his
master, duke, at the luncheon ta-
BILE. Quiet, respectful and assidu-
Gus, he protfered dish with the in
sinuating query:
"Cold grace, your grouse?"
The slip is so obviously a nat
ural one that doubtless the tale is
true. Thus far it is also unchal-
lenged as new, although probably
by the time it has made the full
round of the press somebody will
discover that in its original form
1t was an Athenian Chestnut" in
the days of Socrates.
An anecdote which at least be-
longs TO the same family used to be
laughed over in early Victorian
drawing rooms.
Among the royalties, great and
little, who came to London for the
young queens coronation there
was certain small, dried up, gray
haired, bright eyed, brisk little old
reigning prince of tiny principai-
ty. He was faraway cousin to an
Irish duke, whose estates in Ire
land he visited before returning.
For his entertainment village cell
ebration was arranged, with games
and dances, and especially Irish jigs
and clog dances.
The gay old prince was delight
ed. He came himself of a race IA
nous for its dancing. He still pos
sessed good eye, a quick ear and
a light foot. That same evening in
the great hall of the castle, to the
whistling of his hosts son, he en-
deavored to emulate some of the
feats he had seen.
The dukes solemn English but
ler was present, and his horror at
such unroyal antics was reflected in
nis eyes. The prince perceived it
and, shooting a sudden forefnger
1t him, demanded imperiously:
Eth! Tell me, then, what you
'hink of my dancing"
Discreet and dignifed, but fur
led inwardly, the buffers manner
vas perfect, but his tongue betray-
ID him. He answered:
"Your royal spryness is certain
y Ugh"
There was a shout of laughter,
nd the duke, with assumed anger,
ried sternly: "What! Do you dare
0 insinuate that the prince is ele-
ated-that his vivacity is due to
ny other good spirits than his
wn?"
Before such an accusation the
oor buffers last remnant of COM
osure vanished, and, turning wild
:, with clasped hands, from his
lghness to his grace, he protested
arnestly:
"No, | never, sir, your royal gray
ess; no, never, sir, your icep-
outh's Companion. c

he would have taken the letters. since
there was nothing to prevent him.
Since they were not taken it follows.

he never saw the cabinet. He must
