THURSDAY, JUNE "a, ISAO.
This is not a fortunate day, ac-
cording to those who read the
stars. Uranus, Saturn and Mars
are all in malefic aspect.
The planetary government seems
to indicate that unrest and de-
spondency will be prevalent at this
time, owing to mental conditions
caused by the reflex of the world
war which will be felt for many
months.
Public sentiment will be eX-
pressed in political agitation that
may develop serious clashes or
arms as we'll as words.
Uranus will continue to exercise
malign power through the coming
decade, which will be marked by
the greatest achievements in his
tory. out of spiritual darkness will
evolve many new forms, the seers
declare.
Mars is in a place supposed TO
stir the baser instipcts of mankind,
making for crimes of the most bru-
tai Sort.
While the planetary government
of the universe may seem lnimica
to humanity it is really working
out the great scheme of things. as
trologers explain. so that progress
may be attained for eternity as
we'll as for time and the limits OF
earth life.
Mars now eliminates in Russia
and new disturbances and distress
es are forecast for that country.
Turkey will continue to cause
concern to all the governments OF
Europe.
Astrologers announce that eiec-
ton day brings the Sun and Venus
in strongly benefic aspect and TINS
fact is read to mean that FOR
tunate choice for president Will be
made, women voters being largely
responsible. .ss
The coming weeks are to be ex-
| traordinarily warm, it is again
| foretold, and many persons Will
suffer from the effects of heat.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is
should not lend money in the com
ing year. Business affairs may be
successful but exciting.
Children born on this day may
be fond of adventure and strange
| experiences. These subjects OF
Cancer are usually very happy ano
successful. Girls are likely tt
marry very young.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

(By Howard II. Garis.)

Once upon time, as Uncle Wig

woods with. Susie Little tail, the
rabbit girl, they came to little
pond of water.
"Oh, Uncle Wiggily! Wouldn't
you like ito go in wading?" asked
Susie, altexcited like, and she wig
gled her toes inside her new shoes.
"Wading. Good gracious me

cakes!" cried the bunny gentleman,
making his pink nose twinkle twice
as fast as might be. 1T gives me
the shivers to think about it! And
as for my rheumatism, it fairly
squeaks when / think of going in
the water"
Oh, dear" sighed Susie. I'm
sorry for you, and I'm glad l
haven't any rheumatism"
We'll, then you may go in wad-
ing If you like. I'll sit on the bank
and watch YOU" spoke the bunny
rabbit.
so Susie took off her shoes. In
other words Susie's shoes soon
slipped off her stockings, and then

"Ouch!" suddenly cried Susie, as

So Susie waded around, while

All of a sudden, once more Susie
screamed.

Uncle Wiggily, waking up from his
little sleep.

splashed toward the shore as fast
as she could wade, dropping her
dress down and getting the hem
all wet. t,ua.-
Uncle Wiggily ran down the
bank to the edge of the pond to
meet Susie. The old rabbit gentle

Women Bettors Are Preferred
To Men by English Bookmakers
They Always Settle Their Debts Promptly and,
Rather Than Owe When They Lose, Will Borrow
From Friends to Pay, Say Layers of Racing Odds

Starting price Office bookmakers say
that women always settle their debts
promptly, unlike great MANY of
their men clients.
Again, a woman does not, when she
loses some few dollars, Immediately
bet beyond her means in a wild effort
to regain her losses, common prac-
tice Of the man "punter" and one
which invariably ends in the book
maker being let down and having to
whistle for his money. Rather than
owe her bookmaIler, the woman will
borrow from her friends or fb to
friend husband. She seldom shows in
the book as bad debt.
The usual bets of the regular woman
"punter" are 30 cents or a dollar on,
say, three Of four races in each day,
so that her account, whether winning
or losing one, does not often amount
to more than $50 or S25.
The booamaker likes this-the small.
safe money suits him. The dashing
$50 man "punter" is far too likely to
lose $500 one week and then come
down on the bookmaker for $500 the
following week.
There are not many women punt
ers," however. The average woman
much prefers to save her money for a
day at the race course, where every
o.lar risked is done with the maxi
mum amount of excitement and sensa-
ton

From Tho Tribuns's EUROPEAN Bureau

LONDON, Aug. 12.-It is q curious
fact that the English bookmaker much
prefers his women clients to men
"punters." The reasons for this are
various.
First, the woman who bets always
believes in her luck, while man will
believe more in his calculations, and
bookmaker likes people who con-
slstently believe in their luck.
A woman invariably will place the
utmost confidence in tip received
from zone who knows; the mystery
surrounding the word in your ear" mir
appeals to the feminine temperament.
She has weakness for following an
owner or trainer, rather than q
horse, and for backing her fancy with
out worrying about form and past per-
formances. Even the regular "punter"
well up in racing and betting techni-
calltles often allows cool judgment to
be swayed by personal whims.
Clalrvoyants are in great demand as
ones who must know" 1t is true
that one woman won $40 at the Derby,
a =, clairvoyant having told her Spion
hop would win. Bookmakers, however,
are not yet complaining that they are
going bankrupt owing to unerring
dlvinations from beyond
