YOUR WEDDING DAY
And the Famous Men and Women Wit
Havs Shared II.
BY MARY MARSHALL.
February 13-Frederick of the Palatf-
nate and Elizabeth Of England.

February 13-Frederick of the Palatf-
nate and Elisabeth Of ENGLAND.
This Is the so4th anniversary Of the
marriage OF Frederick. elector OF the
Palatinate and the Princess Elizabeth of
England. Elizabeth was a daughter Of
King James I. OF England and was
named after the great Queen Elizabeth
whom her father succeeded on the Eng
lish throne.
When Elizabeth was but the first
steps were taken toward this MARRIAGE,
and as years passed none Of the usual
things happened to interfere with the
marriage The wedding took place in
England when the bride was l6 the Arch
bishop of Canterbury officiating, and all
the English court arrayed gorgeously for
the occasion The bride was dressed in
wonderful robe OF white and silver,
studded with diamonds, with a crown of
gold on her head. her long, fair hair
woven with pearls and diamonds. Her
train was carried by thirteen young
women dressed in spotless white.
From England the happy couple pro-
ceeded to Germany and made a triuuphal
journey up the Rhine such as has seldom
been equalled in the history of wedding
ceremonies. They arrived in HeideIberg
In June, almost four months after the
wedding ceremony took place. The
crowning spectacle of all was the
triumphal entry into the old city of
Heidelberg, when the prince and princess
were carried in a carriage with eight
horses, with three hundred and seventy
four attendants going on foot and strew-
ing their way with flowers. The streets
of the old city were lined with sward
SO that their going seemed as IL through
an ideal fairy land. The houses were
crowned with ''boughs of May" and along
the walls were hung festoons OF flowers.
1t is said that over Eve thousand per-
sons dined at the castle every day while
the festivities lasted.
Frederick was an ideal bridegroom and
Elizabeth brought him perfect happiness
To satisfy her love for the beautiful he
enlarged his castle for her, and con-
verted the rough mountain behind the
palace into beautiful garden. There
were grottoes and little water falls so
arranged that they seemed to play an
endless melody, and such collection of
flowers and fruits that King Louis XIV,
who wished to have the most gorgeous
castles and gardens in Europe grew
jealous But the life that passed in the
bea utidul fairyland palace Of Heidel-
burg was quite different from the life
Of Versailles and the other abodes of
Louis XIV, for Frederick found his sole
and constant happiness in the love of his
charming wife, Elizabeth, and not in an
ever changing bevy of court beauties.

HOROSCOPE.
Tuesday, February 1s, 1917.

In the carly part of this day the stars
are friendly, but later ii Is wise to be
careful. Jupiter, Neptune and Venus are
strongly adverse until afternoon, when
Venus and Neptune change to benehc as
pect.
1t Is unfortunate for lovers today. since
Inconsistency Is indicated, even though ro-
nance may be exceedingly strong.
Marriages will multiply in the spring,
when divorces also will become more
than usually numerous. The middle
aged are warned that the stars may
cause extraordinary susceptibility.
Neptune is uncertain in influence dur
ing this configuration. This planet is be-
lieved sometimes to work serious evil in
Its effect on men and women, making
them abnormal in taste and instinct.
Warning is given that scandals may be
uncovered and the cities of the United
States brought to shame because of
strange and unnatural conditions of life.
A return to primitive standards of life
as well as art is prophesied.
The beginning Of the full enfranchise-
ment and political emancipation OF wom-
en- is prophesied. The spring will be a
time of extraordinary events that fore
shadow the final triumph Of suffrage.
Congress, which is to come under new
conditions next month, has the prognos-
tication of sensational events and serious
disagreements between the Senate and
House.
Fashions that will mark return to
simpler ideals of life are prognosticated
and women of the upper classes will fol-
low reactionary standards in the home,
which will be more and more the center
of interest.
Theaters continue under a sway that
is most promising, but today may be un-
certain. showing a capricious and hard
to-please attitude on the part OF the pub
lie.
Success for two new plays is prophe-
sled for the spring season. Managers
and producers have a rule making for
changes and disagreements.
Persons whose birthdate it is have the
augury of a successful year, but they
must not quarrel or go to law. The young
will court and marry.
Children born on this day are likely to
be bright and active They are usually
good-looking and easily make friends.
