Thursday. March rs. 1920.

Newspaper Syndicate.)
During the busy hours OF this
day Saturn and Venus are in male
fc aspect. but later Neptune and
Jupiter are friendly.
Women should be particularly
cautious and circumspect In all
business transactions while this
figure prevails for there is the fore
cast of bad luck, especially In deal
ings with persons who are long eS-
tablished In trade.
Theatres may find this rather an
unfavorable rule that encourages
severe criticism and lack of patron
age. Great changes in methods OF
carrying on business which COM
bines so many artistic inc CONNER
cial interests are prophesied.
New methods in conducting the
booking Of plays and in the man
agement Of players will supersede
those now in existence. astrologers
declare.
The evening will be especially
propitious for all who deliver lee
lures or present subjects that make
appeal for popular approval.
Business plans worked out after
shutdown should result In profit and
lead to largo success.
Labor will again bring to the
public consciousness many new
problems. Mines will focus interest
during the summer.
Great damage from floods late in
the spring has been prognosticated.
New England and the Middle west
will suffer particularly. d.
Again the seers prophesy that
the standard of beauty will be rails
ed in the United States and that
few plain or ugly faces will be
seen among the children of the ris-
ing generations.
!. In this connection there is a pre-
| diction that a method of prevent
ing loss of hair will be discovered
by a scientist of note.
Persons whose birthdate it is
| should have a very successful year,
| unusual attention to business af-
fairs.
Children born on this day are
| likely to reach early success. Both
| boys and girls may have extrava-
, CANT tendencies and they may be
too fond of pleasure and amuse-
| ment,

This would be money properly K
