HOROSCOPE.
Saturday, November 2. 1915.

/ Good and evil influences are con-
fiicting today. according to the read
ing Of astrology. but the kindly stars
dominate. Venus, Mars, Uranus. Sa-
turn and the Sun are all in benefic
aspect. Dangers lie, however. in the
changing aspects
Venus indicates remarkable oppor-
tunities and great progress for ~o-
men. who will enter many new pro-
, tessions and Vocations. There is a
sinister sign indicating that they
make serious mistakes. Those in
places Of importance in public organ
izations or government work should
be extremely cautious.
Mars Is in a place promising con-
tinued victories, but there may be
delays and hindrsnces for a brief
time.
Heroes will multiply in the coming
months. but the planets presage
greatness for four. who will arise
suddenly in the next few weeks.
Uranus gives promise Of growth
of loyalty and steadfastness in the
public mind, so that forgetfulness Of
brave deeds will not be recorded
This is a propitious rule for Con-
gressmen and members OF State legis-
latures. They will feel the influence
Of times that exact the best service
and the most unselfsh aims, the seers
declare.
A sensational incident or event that
WIFI have a peculiar bearing on the
elections is prognos ticated.
Many changes in Congress are indi-
Gated. Senators from Northern States
come into a sway that will affect
future elections
Again astrologers predict the death
Of the Kaiser before peace terms
have been agreed on by the powers.
and there is an indication of possible
suicide.
Treachery on the part OF a foreign
power is again foreshadowed, accord
ing to the reading OF the stars.
The death Of a celebrated fnancier
is prophesied. This will take place
before winter ends.
Persons whose birthdate IL is have
the best possible augury for the year
Travel or change will be successful.
Children born on this day may be
secretive and unreliable. These sub
jects of Scorpio are enterprising and
fond OF change They are usually
successful

THE MOON SONG FOR ALL
SOULS DAY.

As the Sun is called the living light
So I am called the dead one;
And as the Sun shines through me al
night,
So do I shine through the Sun.
1 am as a message from the dead:
The Sun is life and light,
And though my words are rarely read
They shine for you each night.
/ send the moaning. signing sounds.
That are singing all the way;
For on this day a prayer resounds.
So all good people pray.
A whispering sigh may reach you;
A sigh that longs for light
The message is to teach you
In the stiffness Of the night
That as the Sun has answered
The nights plea unto the Day;
A single prayer will answer
Those ones who've passed away.
For. so well do I remember.
With the setting of the Sun.
Those well-loved souls disembered
+ From their firesides, one by one
SO let us try to reach them.
On this, our All Souls Day.
A single prayer may reach them
In the great and far away.
There are some We know, who've
gone away.
Far to the other side;
And some of them have gone to stay
They've crossed the Great Divide.
But they look to you to carry on
As faithfully as they,
And even though they've fallen,
And life has ebbed away.
The boys shall not have died in vain
In their fight for Liberty:
For the freedom Of the world they'll
gain,
So pray for victory.
When the bugles' taps" are sounding
And the days no longer light;
When you see me softly rounding
In the peacefulness of night
OFFER a prayer for the dead light.
And in your prayer please say.
"I've read the message that shines SO
bright
On this beautiful All Souls Day"

ROOM REGISTRATION
ENDORSED BY BAKER

Endorsement OF the effort of the
Homes Registration Service Of the De-
partment Of Labor to place war work
ers in comfortable rooms was ex-
pressed yesterday by Secretary Baker.
Crying need for adequate clerical
service in all departments Of the gov

Il heartily endorse every effort now
being made" says the letter. oy

Washington to rent his guest room

War Department is seriously handi-
capped by the fact that # can not

the difficulty which the employees mo

PROHIBITION RIDER
PUT OFF FURTHER

The Food Production bill was de-
layed indefinitely yesterday by the
action of the Senate in continuing
the food production appropriation
to the Department OF Agriculture
through the month Of November.
The Food Production bill includes
elso the amendment for anti-rent
profiteering and the prohibition
amendment.
The House last Thursday passed
a resolution to continued the ap-
preparation to the Department OF
Agriculture Had this appropria-
ton not been passed. it would have
made the passage Of the Agricul-
turaI Production bill necessary. as
the Agricultural Department would
have been unable to continue its
food stimulation work.
The friends of war time prohibi-
tion are becoming more and more
disturbed over the delay in legisla-
tion on this subject with the ap-
proach of peace they fear the wets
will try to block such legislation en-
tirely.

Riley, 1918 Model
Pittsburgh. Nov. /. - The Sphinx
still refuses to solve its own riddle
but maybe we are about to get
the answer to the mystery of Mona
Lisa's world famous, inscrutable
smile,
The modern Mona Lisa has been
discovered in Pittsburgh. Pa.-and
her name is Riley!
When Leonardo da Vinci. world
master of art. painted the portrait
of beautiful Mona Lisa. a young
Italian matron, he started an end
less guessing contest-the burden
OF which was Now WHAT does
she mean by that smile?'
Many men found the pictured
smile beautiful. slluring. mysteri-
Gus, fascinating beyond words.
Some women also found it mys-
terious-others think ii simply a
"catty" expression. A few husbands
think they have seen something
rather like it on friend wife" in
The Washington herald., 1918-11-02

an unpleasant mood-but the gem
eral consensus of opinion is that
Mona Lisa's famous smile is that
OF a lady who know a lot more
than she is going to tell.
Now there's a chance that by
studying the face and disposition
of Mrs. Louise Weller Riley of
Pittsburgh who is declared by ar
lists to be the double Of Mona Lisa
we MAY find out what that kind
OF a smile really means.
The modern Mona Lisa was dis
covered by French portrait
painter, Pierre de Chambois. -
specializes in portraits of women
and has spent a lifetime in a
search for such elusive expressions
as Mona Lisa's. De Chambois de-
clares that the eyes and mouth of
Mrs. Riley are startling in their
likeness to the famous Mona-and
has persuaded the lady to sit for a
portrait.
