that have prominence.

Among the enamel finishes for!
the bedroom, ivory is decidedly the
favorite, closely followed by
French gray. "Span-Umbrian" is
a new finish derived from Italian
and early Spanish furniture. It is.
mellow, soft and pleasing to a de-
gree. produced upon American
walnut in antique brown. It can
be washed with soap and water.
"Chromewald" is a, treatment most
effective on birch, injected right

HOROSCOPE.
wednesday. November 7, 1917.

This is not a lucky or helpful sway
of the stars, according to astrology.
Both Mars and Uranus are in malefic
aspect.
The planetary rule appears to indi-
cate that regarding the war many
misunderstanding will arise and
many tealousies develop among the
people as well as among officers and
men, but this is to be merely a pass
ing phase.
This is not a very lucky day for
military affairs. The menace is not
physical danger in battle. but in some
inefticienecy in the running of the
army machinery, the seers declare.
Again naval activities and battles
appear to be forecast and these will
! bring success to the arms OF the
United States.
Mars in threatening place still gives
great encouragement that fame and
victory await the soldiers Of the coun-
| try.
Up to December IA affairs in al!
parts of the United States will go on
without any great change in public
sentiment, but the eclipse of that date
is supposed to foreshadow new ankle
| ties.
There Is a sign presaging startling
| increase of divorce and immortality in
all classes.
Railway accidents are a probability
this month and today Is most unfa-
yorable for trips or railways.
Italy and 1taly's King come under
direction of the stars that is verv
sinister, encouraging internal disor-
ders and even threatening the welfare
/ of the ruler.
California has the prognostication
OF sensational events during the win
ter and a menace from the sea is
I again indicated.
There is a prognostication of an
epidemic OF infectious disease in
Eastern cities and extraordinary ef-
forts to improve sanitation should be
made
Changes in mems fashions are indi-
Gated by the stars. which appear to
encourage simplicity and utility. Knee
trousers are prognosticated as a pos
sibility after the war.
Persons whose birthdate It Is should
attend to the health during the COM
ing war.
Children born on this day may be
rather quick tempered and fond Of
appreciation. These subjects of Scor-
pio are aften inclined to spend too
much time and money on friends. :

GOOD FORM in WARTIME.
Informal Parties or Relief Enter.
tainments Take Precedence.

Society in America Is taking the cue
of society in London and Paris and
since the nation is at war has gone
into social semi-mourning period in
which all formal entertaining is
abandoned-and unusual expense and
display is frowned upon. Many So
ciety ladies give their time and money
to Red Cross and relief work, and the
only large entertainments in favor are
bazars. pageants and benefit balls ar
ranged for war charities.
The social arbiters in the large cities
have come to a practical unwritten
agreement as to what is good form in
entertainments during the winter and
for the period of the war. According
to them the well-informed hostess will
neither entertain nor attend any So
cial function not included in the pre-
scribed list.
One may attend or entertain at:
1-Dinners. followed by music.
2-Knitting bees, preceded by lunch

3-Informal teas for debutantes.

5-Concerts and morning musicales.
6-Opera.

S-skating and all indoor sports.

clubs.
Women who do not give at least two
days each week to patriotic service
must feel decidedly out of it. The
active worker lists Of the Red Cross
and surgical dressings clubs are al
most duplicates of the social register,
Food conservation and war work are
as good form as women suffrage and
the service performed by wealthy
women who were once absorbed In
their personal pleasures only is as
beneficial to the workers as to the
nation.
