Uranus, Venus and Jupiter rule
strongly for good today, according to
astrology. Saturn and Neptune are
adverse.
This is a day most auspicious for
love affairs, since men and women
will be inclined to romance that is
quick to express admiration and to
urge marriage.
While sentiment will rule strongly
during this configuration there will
be, also, a tendency toward deceit,
since the desire TO please will encour-
age conceslment, vanity and selfish
ness.
IT is n lucky wedding day, making
for prosperous union and long life.
Women are subject to promising in
fiuences directing toward successful
business enterprises and profitable in
vestments.
The seers give warning that the
United States may not profit spirit
ually by the war. for the stars are
read as presaging a recurrence Of eN-
travagance, pleasure-seeking and
money-getting that will cause serious
troubles.
Those who read the stars predict
sreat activity in the trades that con-
tribute wearing apparel and orna-
ments to the use of men and women.
Unusual attention to dress will mark
the next few months, which will bring
prott to many merchants.
This should be a day most favorable
to large projects. Big business is sub
tect to a direction that will assure
larger commerce.
This month may be a time for in
crease of divorce. owing to the ten
dency of Uranus in present aspect to
uncover all that has been hidden.
Scandals may be numerous during
the summer. but there may be an in
clination to judge harshly and to look
for evil.
Again record-brcaking inventions are
promised by the stars. Uranus to-
day inspires the prophecy that air.
planes soon will be in common use as
vehicles of transportation for freight
as well as passengers.
Fortunes are to be risked in new
companies that win establish airplane
routes, and speculation on a large
scale is prognosticated
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of travel and change In
the coming year. They will probably
succeed in business. but should be-
ware of treachery.
Children born on this day may be
exceedingly popular and generous.
These subject of Aries are often in
ventors with little business ability.

Oscar likes tobacco.
And Fatty. the trainer.

That Oscar liked booze.
And a lot of times.

That made him wag.
His silly little tail.
And flap his big ears.
And I know PoodIes.

And knows split infinitivcs.
And grand opera.
And can whistle.
