LIFE AND CHARACTER
READING.
MAY 4.

Self-control, reserve power. disci-
plined will, are the levers 20 bring
about success with this person.
The governing sign Is Taurus.
which is represented on the Zodiac as
the bull. This sign indicates the char
acter and nature of the individual.
He is dominant, reckless, changeable.
exceedingly difficult to manage. and
when in an ungovernable rage. should
be left quietly in his own company
until quiet.
The governing planet is Mercury. II
gives great activity and ambition. Few
people OF this birthdate are ever
lazy or Indifferent. Indeed, they are
so energetic that they are not very
easy people to live with, for they de-
mand much Of every one about them.
The love nature is intense and in
clined TO unreasonable jealousy. This
person should seek an all-absorbine
work in life into which he can pour
all the wonderful energy with which
he is bestowed.

he could come to that conclusion
He had limited at it in his let.

it so that he should not hurt her

Mays feelings.
Suddenly he sat motionless, listen.

sounded like Mays. At last he rose
and looked cautiously out. One of
two women who had seated them
selves on the porch beneath, was May
the other was her friend Julia San.
dow, whom Harry knew slightly, and
had always vaguely disliked. He had
felt that Julia had taken an antipathy
toward him. He had wondered wheth.
er she had anything to do with the
change in May.
They had evidently just arrived, for
the carriage that had brought them
was driving away empty. AS the
young man waited he heard May
speak again, and he could neither help
overhearing nor move from his posi-.
tion. They were speaking about him.
But you love him, May" said
Julia.
Yes, love him." answered the
girl. II have never ceased to love
him. am not Of that nature. But
he--he does not care for me any
more. That is what is breaking my
heart"

Seize the Leisure Moment.

The capacity for understanding ar !
loving great books and paintings and
music has to grow with our own
growth and cannot be postponed to
another season. The average Amer
ican man is supposed to have no time
for these things. He has time, but he
refuses to turn 1t into leisure-leisure
which means contemplation and
Observation-Disclosures he very like
ly knows that this has been accom-
plished over and over again by men
who have saved out OF busy life
for that purpose an hour or two OF
every day. One recalls Darwins pa
thetic statement wherein he describes
his early love for poetry and music,
and the final complete loss Of those
faculties through neglect. "The loss
OF these tastes" he says, "is a loss
Of happiness, and may possibly be IN
furious to the intellect, and more
probably to the moral character by en-
feebling tn. emotional part OF our ma
ture."-Thomas Whitney Surette, in

back the half-inished letter, looked
drearily out of the hotel window. A
carriage was driving up to the door.
The sun was shining, the trees and
shrubs looked their best that bright
July day. And the letter was to his
fiancee, May Denton.
He sighed again. They had been
engaged nearly year, and during that
time there had been ample opportunity
for his passion to cool. He had been
a young man Of many sweethearts,
