THE DREAM OF YOUTH

Copyright, 1870, by Edgar a. Guestl
Those glorious days of long ago when youth
and strength were ours to know,
when all our dreams were far ahead and
we were strange TO care.
Then splendor crowned the hills afar.
| wonder now II still they are
as mystical 70 those who stand to gaze upon
them there.
Oh, do the youngsters OF today stin seek
the land OF far-away
And paint their pictures there of
pride and pomp and fame?
And do they think, as once we did, that
when OF youth they once are rid,
Tho real delights and happiness OF life
theyll quickly claim?
Those golden days OF long ago, when we
were all too young 10 know
The bitter side Of life or see the welt OF
failures sting
We dreamed our dreams OF strength and age
Of deeds we'd do and wars we'd wage
And from the distance thought success
was such an easy thing
| wonder now IL those who sigh TO reach
the guorous by-and-by
Still fancy, as We used to do that duty's
tasks are light?
And do they think that they shall find the
world and all its people kind
And never know care by day or heavy
heart by night?
Now we have left that long ago the distant
hills we've come to know,
We've sought our dreams afar and near
and many a path we've turned.
We've felt the whip and spur OF life we've
had to bear our share OF strife,
And many truth in grief and woe and
bitterness we've learned.
Success Is not the easy thing II seemed to
he In dreams OF spring
There's much to bear and much to face
and many a cruel test.
Bue still, despite the lines OF care which
weary mon and women wear,
Youth cherishes its splendid dreams and
thinks that age is best.

Although Jupiter Is in benefic as.

threatening day In which to use
caution In all important matters.
The Sun, Venus, Uranus and Saturn
are all In evil place.
while Uranus and Saturn continue
to exercise dominating power. the
clash between old traditions and
new ideals will continue.
The seers forecast an extension

months but years.
Life will be held cheap and many
tragedies Will be recorded.
There Is fairly promising sign

Business will be satisfactory in

Women should avoid unneces-
sary activities while this rule OF the
stars prevails. Disappointments es-
pecially In ambitions or benefits de-

1t is n most unfavorablc plane-

support OF either men or women in
any large enterprise. Political af-
fairs have not satisfactory aspect.
While the configuration BODIES ill

1t is especially menacing for those

Warning is given that woman
