Treat her with the utmost respect in
every way. Be careful that you do
nothing to displease her in your at
tentions. Do not make an attempt to
klss-her or take any liberties or famil-
tarities. Try to discover the things she
likes best to do and make suggestions
and plans for good times together, such
as going to good show or theater,
dinners together, and other friends who
are nntually agreeable and congenial.
/ You Will learn in few weeks whether
the girl likes you or not and when you
discover liking in your direction you
might follow that up with a declaration
OF your feelings. If she shows signs OF
being displeased, slow up a bit, but

BLUE EYES.
In all probability this boy will soon
tire Of the fast girl and come back TO
you. My advice is that you do moth
ing toward getting him back, and never
for one instant reinquish your ideals
of what girl should be. Hold fast to
your standard. no matter what comes.
Remember you are worthy OF the good
opinion of the people in your town

the boy continues to go with this fast
girl, then he is not the one to make
you happy, and it is best that you
found him out. In making the boy like
you, be jolly and friendly, but do not
thrust yourself upon his attentions.
Let him appear to do the seeking, but
when in his company be interested in
what he has to say and the things he is
doing. You are all right, Blue Eyes
Don't worry about this boy going with
the fast girl. Things will work out
right.

Tho sun dominates today in benefic

Neptune and Saturn are adverse.
All the signs seem to encourage the
seeking of positions or patronage under
this sway of the stars
1t is time when men who hold inn
portant places like to use their powers
in the bestowal of favors.
The planetary government should be
favorable to politicians and to those
who have worked for party success.
Although men in authority are well
directed at this time. menacing stars
control many destinies today.
1t is not an suspicious day for any
of the enterprises of women. They
should delay all important action, espe-
cially If it is progressive, for Saturn
is in a place that thwarts advancement.
There is an aspect today that makes
for wrong opinions and general mis-
judgment, so it is wise to live by the
rule of kindness.
1t is a most unfavorable time for
beginning any long journey. A wreck
or an accident at sea is forecast.
For all who love material success
there is the promise Of disappointment,
for 1t is prophesied that keen mental
vision will destroy the enjoyment of
hard bought attainment.
This is not lucky wedding day, since
all the planetary influences contribute
to the advantage of men.
This is not a propitious time for
speculation, and all who are wise will
avoid great financial risk.
Jupiter rising at Washington with
the ingress of the autumn quarter was
held to presage a furry in Wall street

you are deeply in love with him and

In the toy town of America, Win

the loveliest rocking horse in the
world on the lawn of its railway sta

that has not only failed to rise in
price, but as the Americans enter
more and more into the industry the
cost has come down. Recently the
glad news came over the wire that
toys were to be lower this year than
ever. This is because American in
dustry has loosened the sitting hold
of foreign domination in toymaking.
You can further speed the movement
this holiday season by seeing that
the toys you buy are American made.

he made two statements.

Mr.. George might not think that Mr..
BaumEaTdt had been a wide wanderer
and he might not think much OF han
as a lecturer. This would not mean
that Mr.. Baumsardt had not traversed
mitch land and sea; 1t would not mean
that Mr. BaumgArdt was not great
lecturer.
Mr.. Haumgardts idea that Lloyd
George was an "opportunist" and was
armed only with a "speclous tongue"
might not necessarily mean that the
English premier was four-flusher.

Fontaine Moore.

Ordinarily when a man dies at the
age of "a it is customary, IL he is
known to possess extraordinary tall
ent, to point out the remarkable ca
reer that undoubtedly would have
been his had he survived. In the
case of Dr. Fontaine Moore we are
not required to speculate upon what
he might have achieved had he been
spared to live TO a ripe age, for the
reason that he took rank with the
foremost specialists of his profession,
and possessed the skill and ability
of doctors many years older than he
was, when he was cut down in the
full bloom of youth and enthusiasm.
Few men who live to an, old age
accomplish more than he for hui
manity, or go farther in their pro-
fession than he went. Thus in sum-
ming up the value of a life we do
not judge it by the span of years,
but rather by accomplishment. We
know, too, that the world is better
for his having lived in it. and that
many lives are brighter for having
come in contact with him. He was
young man Of such exceptional ca
pacity, such noble impulses, so high
minded, kindly and unselfish that his
death can not be regarded other than
as public misfortune.
