HOROSCOPE.
THE stars incline, but do not compel
saturday. June &. 1915.

THE stars incline. but do not compel"
Saturday, June 8. 1915.
Good and III contend today, but the
planetary influences are on the whole
for good, while the Sun and Mercury are
mildly helpful. Saturn wields sinister
sway.
There is a lucky sign for amusements
and public affairs set for this date.
Weddings and all social entertainments
should prosper greatly.
Theatres have an encouraging outlook
for next season. but great changes in the
system OF presenting plays is foretold.
The changes will not be radical. however.
for three years, the seers predict. al
though they prophesy the rise of new
firms of producers and the domination Of
forces not hitherto in power.
Motion pictures have a direction read
as indicating improvements and inven-
tons that will broaden the scope of pre-
sentation and increase educational values.
Magazines and newspapers should profit
during the coming months.
This is lucky day for the enterprises
of women who will be prominent In new
fields next winter.
Love affairs have the best leading un-
der this sign. return OF romantic in
terest in all branches of art as well as
all grades of society is prophesied
again and again.
The death of a leader in political
affairs is foretold.
According to leading astrologers the
war will continue at least another
year. The horoscope of the King of
Belgium is read as promising no relief
for him or his people until 1918.
Indications are said to be threaten
ing for the Russian armies, although
they have the promise of ultimate
gains.
Another sharp dispute with a for
eign power is presaged for the United
States. but again peace will be pre-
served.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is have
rather a threatening sign. They
should guard against losses and cul-
tivate fortitude in the face of disap-
pointment.
Children born on this day may have
many changes in life. These subjects
of Gemini may be hampered by too
many talents and interests.

A TERRIBLE NIGHT ON THE ROAD.

one paralyzed. Outside OF my door,

breathing. Once! twice! three

When the dawn's wan light stole
into the room, | was still sitting
there, staring hollow-eyed at the
door. Five o'clock-six O'clock
seven o'clock came the house was
aroused. Voices echoed down the
halls, and finally l had the courage
to swing open the door, ready to
bolt down the stairs and into the
street. | listened inside the door

prowler had gone.
Still it was with. caution I turned
the key and opened the door. There,

the real Mrs. Gregory-the sister
in-law of the ogre who had ad-
mitted me the day before. And
Bruno, the ghost of the manor, who
had nosed the lock and cuddled
down to sleep outside my door, did
not know his mistress had given
up her room that the little stranger

" beldSCO company, pIdyIH ny
the part of Betty in The
Warrens Of Virginia" for many
weeks l was alone, because mother,
Lottie and Jack were playing in
New York theaters.
Always in a company there are
some kindly hands held out to you,
but we lead such busy lives it is
all we can do to take care Of our
selves, and few of us have time to
see to the comforts of a fellow
traveller. So l would often drift
away from them and take a room
at some very drab, inexpensive lit
tie hotel, which would mean quite a
few pennies saved for me at the
end of the week.
In luxurious hotel room one has
a little delicacy about hanging ones
laundry from the chandelier to the
dresser and spanked against the
window pane. But as the daily
laundering OF my wardrobe was
necessary, l began to regard the
clothes swung across my room as
something rather decorative that
peopled the hotel with imaginery
companions.
In one city, an actress had given
me the address of boarding house
which had been run by a dear, lit
tie, old-fashioned lady whom she
assured me would mother me to my
hearts content. l can tell you that
| lost no time setting out from the
station, but when l arrived there, TO
my surprise, the house and the
woman who came to the door did
not answer the description the &C
tresS had given me.
| should have turned right away
then and sought the rest OF the
company, relying upon my intuition
that l would face grave dangers II
l remained there. But | argued
with myself-surely my friend could
not have been mistaken-the ad-
dress was plainly written-a sign
on the house said Board and
Rooms" and the woman assured me
she was Mrs. Gregory.
l followed her up a long, dark
stairway into a musty, dank-smcll-
ing house, but the room which she
opened for me, and which she told
me l could have at very low
price, was large and quite comfort
able. l took it.
That night when l left the the
ater after the evening performance
the rain was pouring down in tor
rents, and by the time reached the
boarding house, l felt like a kitten
who had strayed from under a pro-
tecting umbrella.
There was not a sound in the
house as l tiptoed up the long
crooked stairs and slid down the
unlighted hall into my own room
In the daylight the room had rather
pleased me, but at night it was big
and empty, with strange. unneces'
sary cubbyholes which looked, il
the flickering gaslight. like fornid
able dark passages.
I do not know what fear inspired
me to keep from retiring, but | sat
bolt upright in my chair, listening
for foreign sounds which woulc
warn me of any dangers. / did no
have long to wait.
First there came a creaking o
the stairs and then the sound o
some one brushing against the wall
Outside my door it stopped, anc
above tha beating of my heart
