HOROSCOPE.
Sunday. February IS, 1918.

- lie stars incline. but do not compel"
! Not a fortunate day AstroIogers
find that Mars and Mercury are strong
ly adverse. while Saturn and Neptune
are friendly.
As the malefic aspects are in opera
ton during the earlier hours of the
day 1t is wise to pass the morning
quietly and to engage in no important
tasks.
Under the sinister power of Mars the
emotions are said to be easily aroused
and for that reason it Is wei. to be
temperate In all expressions Of thought
or opinion.
The rule is held to be conducive to
serious accidents. especially to those
that may arise during journeys or re-
movals.

sidered writings should be avoided.
While the seers do not prophesy war
for the United States they forsee COM
piications with foreign powers that
may involve e nation in vast ex-
penditures and serious losses.
Mexico will continue to offer seri-
Gus provocation to the United States
and may prove a pitfall that gives ext
cuse for other troubles, astrologers de-
clare.
The coniguration today is not 4
good one for domestic happiness. Con-
troll should be exercised in meeting
questions Of small as well as large
concern.
This should be an suspicious day for
the interests of the aged. They are
subject to conditions that should up
lift and soothe their spirits while
their bodies experience relief from in
firmities.
The clergy may find this a rule that
ba.-es their highest efforts. Congre-
cations are likely to be cold and un.
responsive while this figure prevails.
Cold and Indictment weather next
month may be discouraging to farm
ers.
Shipwrecks and storms are indi-
Gated for March. which is likely to
bring extraordinary events, many Of
which are tragic.
The United States and other places
under Geminf may suffer exceedingly
from the evil power of Saturn I'm
rest discomfort, fear of financial diff
culties. dangers from disease and gen.
eral anxiety ar presaged.
Persons whose birthdate II is NAV
have an unsettled year in which litiga-
ton and dissensions cause mental dis
tress. Business Is likely to be unsatis-
factory.
Children born on this day may be
headstrong and stubborn. Both boys
and girls may have a tendency to be
untruthful. Girls should be guarded

that to be from without which is really

conception is the more easy, because
