HOROSCOPE.
Sunday, July Is, 1917.

Astrologers read this as an unim-
portant day. for the planetary sway is
exceedingly weak. Venus rules with
kindly influence, while the Sun and
Mercury are mildly adverse.
1t should be a fairly fortunate day
for romance. Lovers should find the
planetary direction conducive to un-
dertanding. faith and constancy.
Venus. the planet that rules the
emotions which contribute to ro-
nance, Is to be no respecter OF per-
sons in the months that are coming
and the old and middle-aged may be
sentimental and foolishly weak.
This should be favorable rule
under which to bring together friends.
as the sway of the stars is supposed
to promote buoyancy of spirit and
gayety.
There is a sign presaging danger and
scandal through writings. Letters are
subject TO a sinister rule and should
be written with unusual caution.
Increase of libel suits and an ac-
spoken and written word are presaged.
The wise will guard speech and be
careful Of letters.
Marriages among persons of distinc-
tion will be numerous in the next few
months.
The stars presage sudden changes
in fortune for many persons, especial
ly those living in the East. This
means that some will gain and others
lose, but in both cases the conditions
will be altered rapidly.
October is to be a month OF great
events, il the seers read the future
Alright.
The death of famous man in the
United States will arouse public anx-
iety within the next two months, 1t
is prognosticated.
Persons whose birthdate It is have
rather a promising outlook for the
year.
Children born on this day will be
general favorities with the opposite
sex. In business and financial affairs
these subjects of Cancer are likely to
be successful.
