HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY. JUNE s. 1917.

Astrologers read this as a most
uncertain and nerve-racking day.
In the early hours Saturn is ad-
verse. while Uranus, Mercury, Jupi-
ter and Mars are friendly. Later
Neptune, Saturn, Mars. the Sun and
Neptune are all adverse.
The conjunction Of Mars and Ju-
piter today is interpreted as Of sin
lister omen, forecasting increase in
crime and anxiety owing TO unrest
in labor circles.
This conjunction, which may dis
turb Ireland, causing serious diff
culties, is exceedingly menacing for
the kaiser and may bring heavy re-
verses.
A place Of greatest distinction will
be offered to a university head.
Commandments this year come
under a sway making for fame and
supreme achievement among stu
dents. one of the II men may
reach highest place in the gift Of
the people.
Success in some philanthropic eff
fort is presaged for women of the
artistic professions.
The seers foretell that i'm the up
heaval Of old customs and forms Of
government spirits of supreme pow
er will be revealed among both men
and women, who will form a new
galaxy Of heroes and heroines.
Among the various religious cru
sades that have been a sign of the
times will arise teachers of occultism
who will arraign themselves on the
side Of progress and cause much
suspicion and antagonism. New
York and Chicago will be the chief
centers of activity.
Violent storms are threatened for
the latter part of the month and
they may destroy certain crops.
New plans for caring for children
will occupy public attention during
the summer months.
Persons whose birthdate II is
should beware Of false friends They
may lose through thefts.
Children born on this day may
possess unruly tempers. These sub
jects OF Gemini may have many ups
and downs in life.

MUNICIPAL SHEEP AND POTATOES.

New York city has a food supply committee" ap-
pointed by the mayor several months ago, which is
really doing something. George W. Perkins the chair
recently tackled potato problem practical

This just a beginning. admirable 1t

people a full supply of any necessary staple, at
enormous saving.
Mr. Perkins committee has now put through another

This is new sort Of enterprise for cities to go into
But shall probably deal of it in the
years We're getting reconced to having the
community through its municipal government, adopt
modern business methods meeting new economic
problems and mnistering the material needs Of its
citizens. There still people who shudder at such
projects as "sociastic" and there states whose
constitutions or forbid engage such
business undertakings. But the DIRECTORS must be
showed aside and the and constitutions be
changed if municipal administration is to face and
solve the problems of the new age.

Business as Usual
Some Views From the Local
Field.
CONDITIONS ARE BEST EVER.
BY Dr. j. Burke.

II is my firm opinion that we are
now having the best business con-
ditions the country has ever known.
There is work for every one. Now
that war is upon US. our Industries
are called upon 10 speed up" pro-
duCtions as never before. They are
not only confronted with the prob
lem Of supplying this country but
must help TO provide for our allies
as we'll, and all this under the
handicap Of thousands OF our young
men now in the ranks Of industry
being called to service. But gen
eral readjustment OF business meth
DDS must be expected and tolerat-
ed.
Supply and demand is the vital
question today. The unusual heavy
shipping Of munitions and provi-
sions 10 foreign countries works a
hardship on local shipments and the
merchant is forced 10 sell what he
is able 10 get
Unfamiliar brands are being in
trOduced because Of the uncertain
shipping conditions. True. higher
prices prevail and in many Instances
il is hard 20 explain or understand
why the increase. but there is plenty
OF work and plenty Of money in
circulation and if we Will all be
willing 20 make a little sacrifice and
accept the situation in a patriotic
spirit we will convert the prevailing
feeling of fear into general pros
perity.
1 remain, very truly yours.
