Under your fat is a fine, firm-flesh

penditure of incredible treasure

speech, the same ideals; we look
at the fundamentals in the same
way. Such q union would be the
greatest thing that could come out
OF this war"
The Archdeacon also declared that
the present sentiment Of America
towards England had in Il q GER

HOROSCOPE.
Thursday, February Z. 1918.

Astrologers read this as quiet
day. While Venus and Uranus are
strongly beneic in aspect Saturn is
mildly adverse.
Most compelling OF all the forces
today are those of romance ard love
interest, which are well directed.
Under this sway the stars are Kind
to those who become engaged or
who marry.
As has been often predicted love
affairs will be potent to center in
terest, even in the midst of war.
Again it is declared by tho seers that
no on may be safe from the leaning
toward sentimental relationships,
age being far from immune
The stars that foreshadow ro-
nance also seem to presage scandals
and much discussion Of topics OF
great significance to the social condi-
tions Of the future.
The position OF Venus and Uranus
is read as forecasting many political
reforms and changes in political
parties as well as customs
Congress comes under a government

discussion of financial topics, severe

There is a sign believed to indicate
secret dangers that are invited by
carelessness. Many sinister accidents
are forecast.
In the stars Is read promise OF an
invention that will bring to light all
the wonders OF the deems, raising
sunken ships and restoring lost
