Nepture rules strongly for evil
today. according to astroIogy. Late
in the day the Sun is in benefc
aspect
1t is a sway under which to be
careful where there is any chance
OF deception, as the stars are sup

ConfiGuration.
There is a sinister sign for travel
on water and ships come under a

much discussion concerning COM
mercial problems.
Storms at sea and accidents to
ships are indicated, but the United

declare.
Peril in damp places and in lack

This should be an unusually fav-

diplomacy.
BanQuets and public gatherings in
honor of prominent persons are sup
posed to be under a lucky direction
during today's planetary aspects.
Religious controversies will come
] into prominence in the next few
months, it is prophesied. and there
will be much discussion of Spiritism.
Radical propaganda will become
popular owing to some national sit

that peacemakers will be needed.
While there will beNmanN persons
who make pessimistic predictions
regarding business conditions,
astrologers foretell an era OF great
industrial development
Persistent predictions are made
concerning changes in fashions OF
dress. Some OF these will affect the

Taxation will now be widely talk

Financially speaking, the family
is a cooperative institution.
Its business cannot be successfully
conducted unless every member un-
derstands and performs his particu-
lar part in its management, and by
labor. or money contributes to its
support and progress.
So long as the family consists OF
husband and wife. the husband
usually contributes the money oapi-
tai, and the wife. by her work and
! household management contributes
her share as truly as If she turned
actual cash into the household
funds. This arrangement continues
as long as there are no adult chill
dren and wage-earners in the fam
lily, but when that times comes, chill
dren too must be taught and held
to their financial responsibility in
maintaining the home.
As grown children become self
supporting the family finances and
budget system should be explained
to them. At the same time wise
parents will point out to them the
difference between living in a home
and a boarding house and permit the
young people to figure out for them
selves the average cost of board,
room and laundry outside the home.
IL the children then prefer to live
at home they should be made to un-
derstand their financial responsible
ity and asked to contribute their
fair share toward maintaining the
home life. Few parents will care to
accept more than actual living costs
and often less, from their chill

WHITE GOLD PROVES

Chicago. March 5-White gold, ac-
cording to the jewellers. seems destin-
ed to retain the place in the jewelry
trade which the war gave it. This al
10y of nickel and gold came into vogue
when the government placed a ban on
the use of platinum in the manu-
facture of jewelry because of a world
shortage of platinum and the vital
need for 1t in the manufacture OF
high explosives.
White gold became a substitute for
platinum in jewelry. especially as a
setting for diamonds. 1t has much
the same effect as platinum in bring
ing out the brilliancy of these gems.

and looks much like platinum. 1t
costs about one-fifth as much. The
end of the war has not reduced the
price of platinum. 1t remains at
s1O5 an ounce or about five times
more than gold.
