sChierO" Tells Average Char
acter of Each Month.

Does the month In winch one is
born really have an influence on the
character and disposition and success
and happiness in life? There are
those who are incliHed to scott at
the idea; but it is only necessary to
read the writings of those who have
made a special study of the subject,
and to compare their statements with
and relatives to become convinced that
there is much to be learned from
those who claim to be experts in re-
gard to foretelling the future by bas-
ing their calculations on the date upon
which one was born.
Probably no man has made a closer
study of the subject than "Chiero,"
palmist and clairvoyant, who most
truly remarks in his book, when
Were You Born?" that those people
mand to learn their own characters
and the dispositions of others must
certainly be thrice armed in the battle
of life, and consequently more sue
cessful than those who know nothing
of such things
"Chiero" says he has seen many
wicked and broken lives where, had
people possessed a slight knowledge
of their own dispositions, they might
have been saved. And this knowledge
he endeavors to give in his book.
Thinkers in First Month.
Persons born in January. according
to "Chiero," have strong mental
force. but they are, as a rule, gener-
ally misunderstood by others. They
are thinkers, reasoners and should
aim for some form of public life, for
| they generally do best in such careers
They have strange ideas of love,
duty and social position, and for this
| and do not fit in easily with their
neighbors. But they have warm
hearts toward suffering and as a rule
| give largely to charities.
This is also a characteristic of per-
sons born in February. While ex-
| cellent in business and finance, as a
general rule they are more successful
for others, and make more money for
others than for themselves. They are
usually high-strung, oversensitive and,
while not demonstrative in affection,
feel very deeply.
Those born in March have rather
peculiar temperaments- They are in
clined to brood and become melan-
choly and worry about what their flu
ture position in life may be. This
''Chiero," largely due to their dislike
and dread of being dependent on
others more than from any love of
money" Many artists, musicians and
literary people are born in March.
but they must receive encouragement
to make the best of themselves.
Fighters Born in April.
The main characteristics of those
| born in April are strong will power
and great obstinacy of purpose They
are born fighters; they have also the
greatest ability as organizers on a
large scale, such as in the formation
of big schemes or as the heads of big
businesses. But they have their dis
advantage in life, for as a rule they
are unhappy in their marriages. They

sex who understand them.
| Sincerity is the keynote of persons
born in May. If they love they are
generous to the last degree and will
consider no sacrifice too great for the
person they care for. If they are
enemies they will fight with the most
determined obstinacy to the death.
But they always fight in the open,
for they hate thickness, double-deal-
ing or deceit. At the same time Meth
er men nor women born in May
should marry early, their first mar
riage being usually a mistake.
OF all it appears those born in June
are the most difficult to understand.
In temperament they are hot and cold
almost at the same moment They
make clever actors, lawyers lecturers
and certain class of public speakers
all those who play a changing role
in life's drama; but if endowed with
unusually strong will power, and if
.
one thing, then they generally make
| brilliant successes of whatever they
Undertake in any sphere of life.
July Furnishes Rovers.
Persons born in July usually are
restless in disposition and have a con-
slant longing for travel and change;
They always are making homes and
rarely keeping them. Inclined to
speculate and make money quickly in
all CANDLES, they generally lose,
whereas in business they are, as a
rule, most successful. With their en-
ployer they never shirk work or the
putting forward of his interests.
Great soldiers, leaders in finance.

their frankness and straightforward
ness. and have a tendency to get ter
ribly deceived, and in the end become

| Those born in September usually
make good literary critics, being quic
to see the weak points. while at the
same time they are rapid readers and
endowed with wonderful memories.
In the execution of almost anything
they set their minds on they generally
succeed.
Gamblers i'm October.
A varied career is usually the por-
ton OF persons born in October. They
often are successful as spectators or
gamblers, but have little regard for
money. Large numbers of them seem
to drift naturally into the study of the
law, and in 1t they generally make a
name as lawyers, barristers or judges.
In marriages, however, they are sell

Curious are the characteristics of
those born in November, for up to 20
years of age they usually are extreme
