HOROSCOPE.
Thursday, April rs, 1918.

Although Uranus is adverse early in
the morning the planet changes to
benefic aspect later and in the even
ing Mercury Is friendly.
1t is a day in which the mind Is
likely to be sensitive to impressions
good and i'll. also 1t is conducive to
premonitions and strong reactions.
1t is a fairly fortunate rule under
which to travel or make changes.
There Is a favorable sway for max
ing new acQuaintances and even for
love affairs, which will become more
and, more prevalent as the year ad-
Vances.
Because Uranus Is believed to give
an access Of psychic power this should
be an auspicious planetary govern
ment under which to make decisions OF
future Importance, since vision should
be clear and judgment keen.
The stars seem to give warning OF
disappointment to the nation on mat
ters of vital concern. Peril turks in
too sanguine expectations regarding
the war.
Letters and papers official and other
wise are well directed after the noon
hour today. There may be an utter
ance Of a man in power that will
cause a sensation.
The seers declare that too much
stress cannot be laid upon the con-
servation and safeguarding OF all re-
sources public and private. Economy
should be the rule in all classes.
Women should be exceedingly dis
Greet during the coming year for they
will be in peril even in the United
States.
Some danger connected with water
ways in the United States is fore
seen and this may come from either
the North or the South.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the omen OF anxiety during the year.
They should guard against false
friends and beware OF speculation.
Travel and change are presaged.
Children born on this day may be
constantly desirous of change. These
