his own toy bank, a tumbling clown

ten cents, and just bought what he
wanted. anyway. Then, when it was
found out, Jack decided he would al

of discovery. And next time he said:

HOROSCOPE.
Monday, May Fl, 1917.

Neptune and Venus are in strongly
benefic aspect today, while Saturn is
,slightly adverse.
The new moon of this date takes
place in square to Uranus and in sex
tile to Saturn in the third house and
is read, as bringing sinister influences.
The rising position of Uranus is con-
istrued to foreshadow strikes, riots
and unrest owing to high taxes and in
creased cost of living.
The navy comes under a rule show
ing activity that brings honor and
glory for which a heavy price may be
paid. Great Britain has the augury of
possible diplomatic bIunders that may
affect the United States. Again Ire
land has the representation of serious
trouble.
The lunation falls in a most sinister
place in the horoscope of the Kaiser
and presages loss of allies and es-
arrangement of friends.
This should be a lucky day for wom-
en-, especially in love affairs and many
engagements among naval officers and
men are indicated.
This date is a most fortunate one
for entertainments. Theatrical affairs
have a fairly good leading, which
should manifest itself in aid for war
expenses and other public funds.
sway that appears to presage work for
humanity or some philanthropic pur-
pose which will make them famous
for se1f-sacrifice and efficiency.
Fairly good fortune should attend
any venture on the sea today.
National interest in cooking schools
and centers for food conservation, so
long predicted. will concentrate on
wholesale economies, which will be
necessary in the fall.
Again new vocations for women
which have been foTetold for two
years are forecast.
The rise of new national heroes
who win take the place of the aged
ones that are passing away will be
apparent with the waning of the
summer, it is predicted.
Persons whose birthdate IL is have
the augury of an active, prosperous
year. The young will court or
marry.
Children born on this day will be
digniffed and reliable. These subjects
of Gemini ought to rise rapidly in
