HOROSCOPE.
SUNDAY. JULY 70. 1919.

Copyright, 1913, by the Mcclure Newspaper
syndicate.)
Planetary influences conflict today,
making for contradictory impulses
and uncertain action. Mercury, Sat
urn and Uranus in benehc aspect have
the Sun and Jupiter to overcome If
they would benefit humanity.
According to astrology the battles
in the physical world, terrible as they
were. are not to be compared to those
taking place on the psychic plane.
For this reason IL is pointed out that
safety lies in the establishment of
a positive attitude toward right and
a constant reliance on spiritual pow
ers.
This should be q fairly favorable
sway under which to conduct church
services, as the stars are so posted
that men will open their minds to
truth.
Saturn gives much hope TO all who
till the ground, for it is read that
there will be immense gain through
scientific aid in farming.
Uranus Is in a place that should
enable persons to get one another's
point OF view. This is held to be most
promising for the future OF returned
soldiers.
The seers explain that the youth Of
the land met in battles conditions that
have wrought great mental changes.
These changes will be first apparent
in difficulties due to readjustment to
civil life, but they will be later ex-
pressed in many ways, for through
them will come the realization that
a new era has come.
Publishing is again subject to influ-
ences stimulating and progressive.
One Of the signs OF the times. how
ever, will be a falling of in the num-
Der OF women authors.
Sunday visiting is not well directed
during this configuration, for the later
hours will increase the tendency to
criticise even ones best friends.
The prophecy that new teachers and
even new prophets will arise is re-
peated. Ancient faith in miracles will
be revived.
Persons who birthdate il is NAV ex-
perience surprises and changes in
the coming year. They should be
careful in money matters.

Legal accounting is science in
which Herbert 1. Davis. auditor of the
Supreme Court OF the District of Co
lumbia- is deeply interested. and while
'busily engaged in reporting upon
questions of law and of fact touch
ing on and appertaining to partition
suits. dissolution of corporations and
kindred subjects, one would hardly ex-
pect him to have much Imagination.
Yet he must have a vivid imagina-
tion, combined with broad vision. and
not see things merely from the re-
spective points of view presented By
parties appearing before him at the
Court House. The imaginative facul-
ty of our auditor was illustrat ed
when a witness recently appealed for
protection from counsel "who uues-
toned the validity of my voracity."
Mr.. Davis was born in this city
about forty-five years ago, and was
appointed auditor of the court on
July 1. 1915. being a member of the bar
of the United States Supreme Court
Although Mr.. Davis makes a living by
auditing intricate accounts, he enjoys
delving into things mechanical. and
has obtained several valuable patents
During the Spanish-American War. Mr..
Davis occupied a position of confidence
and trust under the immediate SUPER
vision of the late Gen. John NJ. Wilson,
Chief OF Engineers, United States
army. who likewise was a native of
this city.
Our auditor is a product of the pub
lie schools of this city. supplemented
by special studies at Columbian Uni
versity. but regards his service with
Gen. Wilson as being equivalent to
a postgraduate course, always re-
membering the words of his noble
chief What you know. plus what you
do. equals what you are"
Mr.. Davis has an abiding interest in
all matters relating to the welfare of
his native city. thus his work incident
to membership on the committee of
public buildings and grounds of the
Washington Board of Trade is most
congeniaL
The auditor works hard and plays
hard. Steadfastly maintaining that he
is not old enough to play golf, he ex-
cells in tennis and in long distance
swimming. At ''Malbert," Montgomery
County, Maryland, his home. is locat-
ed the court Of last resort when 1t
comes to contests relating to tennis
Mr.. Davis married a daughter of the
late John Malcolm and Frances Con-
way Grahame. and Mr.. and Mrs.
Davis have two sons, Malcom, 16 years
of age, and Herbert, II, after whom
''Malbert" is named. The birthday an
nivcrsary or the auditor, each June,
brings many Of his friends to en-
joy the hospitality of his Maryland
home.

BROADWAY WHISKY
HITS $1.25 PER WHISK

New York, July 19.-Klndly Broad
way restaurateurs apparently are do
ing what they can to assuaue the
grief of the New Workers over the
demise OF John Barleycorn.
The mourners seem to perk up n
bit if at least one reminder of the
old days remains-the high cost of
drinking. This is the result:
Vichy and milk costs 50 cents

Eether touched 50: iced coffee is

lemonade hoped from 90 cents to 80.
And ginger ale sells for 81 a copy.
The reason for the latter. It was
explained in one spot, was due to the
tenacity of some patrons who bring
along their own kick. and pour it
into the ale.
Another very quiet spot is said to
have a very private room where 1t

Aurora:-Light of Asia.

From the Armenian section Of the Forthcoming
book Of Matthew J. Grecvy. Of Omaha, entitled /:
"A sEARCHLIGHT on THE FLAG" A
Visionary Dream.
Near the mosnt where the Ark of
Noah rested,
A cross appears DER bleak and
burning desert sands:
A vision of our starry flag behind
it
And the glistening bayonets of a
khaki-clad soldier band;
Armenians-young and old-strong
and feeble,
In hunger and thirst and mortal
agony tread their way,
To the bloody shambles OF the
star and crescent
And leave their whitened bones
To mingle with common earthen
clay.
Aurora:-of Armenia, a good and
just God protects you,
Your soul is purified and your frail
body cleansed
OF the unspeakable loathings you
so nobly suffered,
That a righteous world might its
rod of iron bend;
Our bright Stars and Stripes, and
tho Union Jack,
In the deserts heeting shadows,
salutes and greets you,
AS the serene and living light oi
Asia OF our day;
The soaring Eagle-the roaring
Lion-your sSsrdians for,

Worship your God, Aurora, in your
home-like Christian way.

Sex Problem Vital

Nor, on the other hand. does Mrs.
Rinehart urge any social theory or
for the problem that con-
fronts Clayton Spencer and his wife.
The sex problem in Dangerous Days
is Of vital Importance, but 1t Is han
died in a way that is more an exposi-
tion of given conditions than an argu-
ment for a case. AS one critic justly
says: "She does not mince matters.
but never offends.'
Spencers wife does not undergo
complete Transformation in the last
chapter. She remains true to type.
Indeed this is true OF Mrs. Rinehart's
characters throughout. especially in
her portrayal OF men she is happy.
Her viewpoint is always feminine. yet
always just. AS II is said Of men in
Dangerous Days" they are neither
"a cave type. nor a clothier's dummy,

comes all veterans within its ranks
and is the one organization whose
charter is perpetual and can never
cease to exist as long as We have an
army, navy and Marine Corps?
Its aims and objects are to care
for its sick. bury its dead. extend a
helping hand. pecuniary and other
wise, as may be necessary, aims to
elevate the social and material stand
ing OF the enlisted men, encourages
and aids in legisla ton in their behalf,
