HOROSCOPE
WEDNESDAY. JULY q. 1913.
tCopSrignt. lelsA

tCogrgnt, f9lsl
Complex planetary influences will
be active today. according to as
trology. Venus and Uranus are ad-
verse during the early hours and
later Neptune is in benefic aspect
The stars indicate that there will
be a ferment of world purposes for
many months to come. but the
trend of human endeavor is stead
lily stronger toward the improve
ment of conditions affecting hu-
manity.
This day is held to be not lucky
in love matters, which may intrude
into other affairs and cause trouble
for men in conspicuous positions
Uranus is in a place that stirs
nightly all the psychic power and
tion.
The afternoon hours should be a
propitious time for transactions in
volving oil interests. a substitute
for gasoline again is indicated.
Naval interests now come under
promising direction. The stars
presage much for young officers
who enter the service this year.
Mars ruling the tenth house for
Great Britain threatens the Gov
ernment and executive powers of
the nation with many trouble. The
resignation OF a minister is fore.old.
Conditions in France and Italy
may not be satisfactory during the
remainder of the summer.
Persons whose birthday it is have
an exceedingly active year before
them. They should make no
changes and should beware of de-
ception.
Children born on this day may be
strong of will and exceedingly en-
ergetic. These subjects of Cancer
are always great favorites with the
opposite sex

or not. ends by doing it.
Another strategic move that usually
meets with much success Is a star
play TO a woman's sympathy. More
women marry men because they are
sorry for them than for any other
reason. This move must be male
discreetly. though. The man who
whines is lost. He doesn't arouse
pity. He fills her with disgust. But
the man who can make himself nc
turesquely wretched before a woman
who has refused him, and who smiles
with a broken heart, has a trump
card. while the one who can make
her believe that she is driving him
to suicide has won the game.
The most vital point OF courtship.

Sometimes It is tho separate dress
and coat and sometimes it is the suit
that holds the sway Of style during a
season. In Paris, without doubt,
declares fashion writer; it is the
coat this season.
Such attention as has been shown
to morning and afternoon dresses IN
Paris would be hard to equal, and in.
stead Of their having declined in popu-
larity after several seasons Of atten-
ton, quite the contrary has happened.
They are more in the limelight than
ever.
In spite Of the fact that there is so
little conspicuous change In the line
Of the gowns, it Is upon these ':little
dresses' that some Of the most artis-
tic touches have been lavlshed. The
inconspicuous, unassuming gown for
morning or for afternoon can have
about it much genuine feeling. At
each Of the couturiers the same story
is true; each one has outdone him
self in presenting new reasons for the
continued life Of this popular gar
ment.
Ma, erials have for their leader one
that has the sanction Of dges behind
it-blue serge. Then there are all Of
the soft surfaced fabrics-duvetyn.
rusella, burella, and the allied fab
RIGS. For afternoon there are char
meuse, of which there are a great
many models to be seen, taffeta, and
velvet which has lost none Of its
vogue. There was nothing smarter
then than a black velvet gown and
there is nothing smarter now.
The trimmings and touches on these
dresses for daylight wear are fasci'
mating in their variety. It is not 50
much the. thing that is done as the
way it is done. When one sees the
clever littlA bits of handmade braid
and the inserts of bead work, the fac,
ings and the edglngs, one wonders
how there can grow so many new
ideas in the course Of single season.
But there they are, to be copied In.
}terminably by less ingenious Ameri'
cans.
Not so much hand work is to be
seen about these dresses as was the
case In former seasons. The little
girls who used to do this work have
learned by their connection with the
wartime munition factories that a
