THE stars incline. but do not compel.

Inc stars incline, but do not compel.
Saturday, September IS, 1918.
In the early morning the stars are
! promising for those who sell. but later
| in the day conditions are uncertain.
While Jupiter and the Sun are in bene-
| fc aspect Mars is strongly evil and
Saturn is adverse.
1t is a fairly lucky day for seeking
positions or asking favors. The young
are especially guided, the seers declare
There is sign indicating that condi-
tons Of every sort will be intensified
during the coming months. the rich be-
coming richer and the poor poorer
Trades and all vocation that employ
trained hands will be subject to infiu-
ences tending toward discomfort and re-
| bellion, it is predicted.
Women will be conspicuous in strikes
and the violent death Of one who Ia
leader in riot is foretold.>
Excitement over the spectacular death
of a public man in the United States il
prognosticated.
Again children are subject to condi-
tions which will attract worldwide no.
tice. Their value will be appreciated
and new methods of developing them
into useful citizens will OCCUPY public
attention. A man will gain fame by
his advocacy Of this form of conser-
walton.
Theaters are under rule held to
presage improvement and increase in
interest. but many new plays will fail
before the new year.
The rise of a young man who will
introduce dramatic novelties Is prophe-
sled.
II the stars are to be believed. the
vogue for motion pictures will be modi-
fed and vaudeville will gain in public
esteem.
Educational and philanthropic actiyi-
ties will be widespread in the next few
weeks. when public attention will be
focused on national problems.
Washington, D. c., comes under n d.
rection Of the planets that presaGes
events which are sensational as well as
historic.
Persons whose birthdate it In should
be careful Of accidents or injury during
the coming year. Those who are en-
ployed psobably will be promoted.
Children born on this day NAV be
quick-tempered and difficult to manage
but they are likely to be exceedingly
fortunate They are subjects of Virso
and Mercury ID their principal ruling
planet.

THE QUESTION OF TOYS.

Santa Claus has been just little
worried.
Even when the mercury scars to-
ward the tops of the thermometer he
looks at the calendar and sees that it
, is onlv thirteen weeks before it will
be time to load up that sleigh of his
with enough toys for the children of
q. all the world.
OF course the good old patron of
childhood has nothing to do with
war and he is glad at least that the
Netherlands. his own native country,
has so far managed to keep out OF
the fracas. But the war is having an
enormous effect upon Santa's plans
this year.
For usually he employs hundreds
of thousands of German folk to make
a very large proportion of the toys he
uses-most of those requiring good
deal of patience and skill to make
come from the kaiser's land, where
thousands of German families carry
on a home industry in toymaking
that they hand down from one gen.
Grafton to another But now these
toymakers are not at their work
bench. The fathers and brothers are
in the trenches and the mothers and
daughters are in the fields or fac
tories carrying on the work that must
be done They have no time and no
heart for the gentle art of toymaking.
1t is one of the saddest contrasts that
you can imagine The toyInaker's
family of two years ago, united about
the work bench patiently piecing to-
gether some delightful little toy, and
that same toymaker's family this
year.
But Santa goes on with his glad
work even in war times and now he
is using his wits to find some way to
make up for the shortage of German
toys. B
The good people over at the Swiss
legation here have helped solve the
problem in suggesting the use of toys
made in the land of the Alps. There
are many families there as expert in
toy construction as are the Germans.
These families, dwelling safe and Sc
cure in the very midst OF the war
zone, can double, even triple their
output. Other families, thrown out of
work because OF the falling off in
tourist trade this year, can add their
labors.
We expect to hear any time now
that Santa has accepted the offers OF
help that come from Switzerland. and
this, with the extra work that can be
done by the American toy manufac-
turers, ought to make it possible for
Santa's bag to be as full t is year as
ever

What Color For Waists.

The most radical change in the
waist styles this season is in the
color. The dressy waists are either
dark. SO as to match the suit. or are
in some high color, thus contrasting
with the suit. On the other hand. the
semi-tailored models continue to be
mostly in white and in flesh color.
says the Dry Goods Economist.
The new season waists of senserva-
tive type are in navy, brown, dark
green. purple. gray or mulberry
Waists of more striking type are in
garnet. light green. rose. roya! purple.
French blue and other tones whicn
will blend harmoniously with the dark
suit colorings.
