Jupiter rules strongly for good to-

Neptune is lightly adve Sc

mercial initiative and encouraging
to enterprise.
Unexpected activity far reaching
in Its results will mark the next
few months in the world of busi-
ness, the seers announce, and they
foresee great benefits to the United
States.
Losses at sea may attend some en-
terprise that is dependent on trans
portation by water. This applies
especially on the Pacific Ocean.
There is a promising sign for the
United States government, which
will emerge from war conditions re-
markably well. even though it will
be assailed from within the nation
by foes that defy law.
Growth in power will mark the
commercial attainments of the coun-
try. but surprising developments are
indicated.
Railroad accidents and disaster TO
by the stars.
At the end of this month interpa-
tional affairs will be more settled, il
is predicted. and the outlook will be
most favorable for the expansion OF
American enterprise.
Race problems will come much to
the front. owing to some unfore-
seen incident.
Warning is given against a tend
ency to over-organize in the United
States. The seers foresee trouble
through too many societies or asso-
Citations for divers purposes.
Reforms in all departments OF
the government are foreshadowed

The potency of thought is to be
recognized as never before, astrol-

men and women should safeguard

Danger from explosions is still

probable. 1t is wise to watch new

Have you ne'er felt you've lived before
In some unstatcd day of yore
Amid some scene
OF floral green
That underlined remembrance bore?
Has scent of roses on the breeze
Relieved some pressing lack of ease.
And soothed the press
OF present stress
With tenderest of memories?
It's thus / find mid all the green
And beauty of the summer scene

That holds my Faith in God serene.

LETTERS OF AN ALTRUIST
WI-To His Physician
BY EDMUND VANCE COOK

BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE.
Dear Doctor;
am feeling better
But panied to get your recent letter,
Informing the consultation
Decreed against your operation.
Old friend, you know love you dearly
And sympathize with you sincerely
] know you must be disappointed
To have your fondest plans unjointed
BY inexperienced coadjutoTs
Who thus presume to be your tutors,
These lesser men Of narrow vision
Who interdicted your incision.
Truly. these malpractitioners grieve mel
Not on my own account, believe me-
Except IS it might be my mission
To offer my collaboration
As subject of your operation.
Well, well, let these vain fools content them:
have plan to circumvent them
Let US accept their Grass decision,
Not even limiting our derision;
Then, when I'm well again, and hearty.
We'll plan little surgeons party.
III offer, for your vindication
My two-weeks summertime vacation
Whose spending money I'll invest in
A newly vulcanized intestine,
And II your conferees should venture
Again to cavil to censure,
Or, il some slip and its resultant
Should make thenh for the nonce, exultant,
Together well defy and thwart 'em
And prove you right-at my postmortem.
