No more convincing proof of the value
OF a~strology could be asked than that
which is revealed by a study OF the stars
that rule Mrs. Dick. They point so clearly
and convlnclngly to all the important
things which have already befallen her
that We may we'll accept with confidence
their message regarding what the future
holds III store.
Mrs. Dicks horoscope presents a
curious Interviewing OF good and evil in
fuences, which are destined to repeat
themselves over and over again. Each
seven or eight years in her life brings a
crisis which will make for the greatest
happiness or unhappincss. The stars
show that her fourteenth year was as
eVentfui for q girl OF that age as the wear
l91l-19l2 was for the woman of TWENTY

or Americas richest men. became a
widow. narrowly missed death herself in
a great ocean disaster, and soon after was
blessed with her first child. In two or

a series Of events that will have an
even more marked influence on her fate.

Titanic crashed into the giant iceberg.
The influence OF Saturn, as astrologers
we'll know, has the habit Of repeating
itself at regular intervals, and there is
good reason to believe that this will be
the case with Mrs. Dicks life. That it
has already begun to show it's evil force
again is shown by her mothers opposi-
ton 10 her last marriage and by the
embarrassing Dostponement Of the cere-
mony at Bar Harbor.
Is this an indication that tragedy will
mar the second omance as it did the
first? There seems little doubt of it.
But as TO when this will occur the mes
sage OF the stars is not so clear. Very
probably it may come in 1918 or 1919,
when Mrs. Dicks fate passes under the
malevolent influence OF the same Saturn
that ruled ii in the memorable years of
1911 and 1912.
The probability of the repetition OF
a similarly gloomy picture on the screen
OF Fate is made all the stronger by the
fact that the second wedding day was
ruled by exactly the same astral condi-
tons which governed the first. The
menace, however. may be avoided, or at
least ncutralized, provided Mrs. Dick
proves strong enough to resist the pow
erful lure the sea has for her.

prize. announcement Of their engage
ment Is said to have been made to their
families and intimate friends a few days
later.l
Despite the closeness with which the
fates Of this bride and bridegroom have
for years been joined, the stars give little
promise Of marital felicity. This lack
will be due to the antipathies of relatives
by marriage rather than to their own
incompatibility.
AS regards children, Mrs. Dick will be
fortunate. The first offspring of this
second marriage will be a girl, to be born
next April. and there is every prospect
that a second daughter will follow.
Jupiter assures Mrs. Dick Of wealth
beyond the ordinary, but she will not be
able to retain it without serious legal
difficulties. These, the stars indicate,
will be the result of malevolent infiu.
ences which held sway at the time
Colonel Aston made his will.
Pleasant influences surround tho first
few months Of Madeleine Forces second
married term. although there is risk OF
an automobile or railway accident near
the close Of August or early September.
In fact, She can never travel without
more or less danger, and this is always
heightened when she is proceeding in a
westerly direction.
From the closing months Of 1918 to
the latter part OF 1920-this, the stars
say, is the most ominous period in Mrs.
Dicks whole life. Then must she beware
lest she and her family he overtaken by
a fate as appalling as that which wrecked
her first romance.
