HOROSCOPE


CATURN and Uranus rule strongly
- for evil this day, according to as
trology. Mars is slightly adverse.
There IS an aspect not altogether
favorable TO farmers or persons who
deal in real estate. It would seem
from the reading OF the stars that
speculation OF some sort IS indicated
in many places
Mines and mining are subject to
trouble. but there viii be much in
terest in producing minerals OF every
sort
It is not a lucky day for beginning
journeys. since storms and accidents
are more to be dreaded than in usual
circumstances
Uranus gives warning to aviators
10 be exceedingly cautious while this
CONFORMATION lasts. The planets are
read as presaging many new uses for
airplanes. one OF which viii be quick
" developed after the war.
Under this sway there is a sign
that is read as indicating complica-
tons in Russia and protracted move
ments OF troops. including American
soldiers
Growth in mental view is to bring
about progress for soldiers after the
war, 1t is prophesied by those who
see in the aspect OF Uranus promise
that old standards OF ambition viii
be replaced by new ideals.
Various indications OF unrest are
prognostieated for early in the new
year. but these merely presaEe
growth. the seers declare.
Again attention is called to the
prophecy that music and art will
have new place in national esteem
and will be developed under govern
ment direction.
Aged persons should safeguard the
health during the winter. for they
may suffer from sinister planetary
influences. Many deaths viii occur.
Persons whose birthdate il is should
not travel or remove in the coming
year. They should be especially eau
tious in their dealings with others.
Children born on this day may be
artistic and romantic. These subjects
OF Saglttarius are often high strung
and erratic and should be trained 70

u county local board. is very proud
OF the military record made by the
draft men sent into service by the
board Of which he is a member. Many
Of them are Of Mexican birth, natural
lied in the United States. or OF Mex
lean ancestry.
THE men we have sent have made
fine military records. both in camp
and on the battlefield and their rela-
tives are proud OF them and pleased
with the workings OF the military
law" said Mr.. Carr. There is not the
slightest resentment against the draft
among the Spanish-American element.
We were handicapped in sending men
by the fact that many Of our people
Of draft age were aliens and there
fore exempt and a certain number had
to be given deferred classification be-
cause Of agricultural occupation.
Mr. Carr. who is proprietor Of the
Valley Inn at Ysleta, is a native
Texan. who has lived in or near FL

Tired Business Man Has No Time
To Take His Wife To the Theater
The Reason-He's Been Away From Home ALI Day
And At Night Wants His Comfort.
% BEATRICE Fairfax

| A YOUNG woman who signs herseli
n Puzzled" has written me letter
She loves her husband and he is de-
waited to her. No tragedy there. They
are well to do. Eo there are no sordid
problems.
But there is something wrong, new
ertheless. The husband never pro-
poses taking his wife to the theater.
And If she herself proposes it. she
does not gain her point until after AN
hours teasing and coaxing." Even
then her enjoyment is Of brief dura-
tion. The young wife is sincerely
mystified by all this. What can be
his motive" she asks me, when he is
/ 50 attentive otherwise?"
The answer is, of course. very sim
pie. This girls husband. or any other
Tired business Man, could explain ii
to her in a few words. He has been
away from home all day, and at night
he wishes to rest in an enclosed, do
nestle atmosphere. He wants his
lamp and his paper. his pipe and his
radiator. his arm chair and his loose
coat. and his wife somewhere within
reach if he should happen to feel like
talking.
Anyway. most shows are unsatls-

I truly don't believe that one Tired
Business Man in 1OOO-for Puzzled
ought to know that she has countless
suffering sisters with precisely the
same problem as her's-ever realizes
how these domestic evenings, with
their overheated, overlighted silence,
must affect his wife, after a multitude
of duties have kept her indoors per-
haps all day.
His Imagination becomes fatigued
with the rest OF him. At least. he
doesn't use II as spotlight to make
clear the wife's side Of the case
Or 1t may be that he so very greatly
prefers a warm, comfortable stupor to
any recreation demanding energy, that
he isn't. for the time being. quite I'M
selfish enough to care what 1t Is that
she prefers.
But this isn't the whole story. There
is ever so much more 10 be said about
it. II husbands won't discuss the
matter, other people must. For I, for
one, don't feel that this young wife,s

CEVERITY in a suit is an excellent
- thing to keep in mind when you
start out with the resolution to buy
a garment which will hold your
affections until it is worn out. The
plain suit falls into lines becoming to
almost any figure. The stole-lfke
collar on this suit takes its inspira-
ton from the sport scarf. This stole
is. however. the same material as the
blue gabardine OF the suit. 1t rounds
into a collar at the back. The sides
OF the coat are shorter than the stole
and this irregular line accents this
feature. The belt gives no evidence
Of fastening. but crosses at the front
and buttons at the side back This
hat is an excellent choice for wear
with such a youthful suit. It is hand
crocheted. in putty colored wool. The
ribbons Of navy grosgrain which ties
the crown is a pleasing accent Of
