HOROSCOPE

D WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER ,, 1919
( THIS IS an uncertain day, according
L to astrology. While Mercury is
in benefic aspect Jupiter. Mars, Venus
and Neptune are all adverse.
As the month advances the ferment
Of thought that brings about upris-
ings and riots Will be widespread. and
I for thi sreason constructive and kind
" ideas should be expressed instea1
Of criticism or faultfinding.
While Mercury is in a place read
as favorable TO the signing of i'm
portant papers, whatever relates 10
military OF naval matters should be
deferred.
The sway is a promising one for
editors, advertisers and publishers,
who viii profit largely by the begin
ming of the new year.
There is a sign said 10 Indicate the
gradual accumulation Of unsupported
power by one who controls the public
prints
Because the Ia wof opposites always
is operative, there viii be a sudden
revelation concerning war conditions,
Shut autOcracy. A reaction toward
old conditions will be apparent IN
homage to rank and wealth during
the late autumn and the entire winter
season
Disasters are threatened in Switzer-
land an dthe West Indies. and these
may be far-reaching in their effects.
Earthquakes in the south Of Europe
and in longitude 90 10 100 degrees
east are prognosticated-
The conjunction Of Mars. Jupiter
and Neptune viii continue 10 disturb
Italy.
The death Of a famous actress Of
foreign birth is indicated.
Again a sinister sign is detected
where our diplomacy is concerned,
and a serious blunder appears to be
foreshadowed.
a season Of much social gayety is
prOgnosticated As this means ex-
raVagance. il may be much criticised
by disconnected persons.
Persons whose birthdate IT is should
be wise in the conduct OF all their
affairs. Take precautions against i'll

to be gifted and Industrious. These

the Reds will do as we'll. In facing
Cicotte, the key batters sustained .

spite OF the fact that on many occasions
when the key tatters faced Ctcotte, the
Sox pitcher was not obliged to use az
much energy and skill a. he will employ

It will be noted. also, that nearly all
the key batters are from teams that
were pennant contenders and as Chicago
was al or near the top all the season
these batters wcer trying their best to
beat him every time they came to bat.
If under these circumstances the key
batters slump 10 percent In their hitting
It Is fair to assume that the Reds will
slump likewise and this will reduce their
.271 team average to .2A.
