ST. FRANCIS OF ASSIST
The Youth of st, Francis

In the little town Of Assist. amid
the Appenine ridges in Central Italy,
st. Francis grew TO manhood. His
father. being n well-to-do merchant,
was able to provide his son with
such education and Injuries as the
times permitted. Francis. for his
part. thoroughly enjoyed the gay.
care-free life which his fathers gen
erosity made possible. Francis liked
to dress gaily and in high style. 10

about town, TO read thrilling roman
ces. and to sing gay and charming
songs 10 the music OF the lutte. Oft
times he dreamed he was a chivalrous
knight riding out upon thrilling ad-
ventures, ms did the heroes in his
stories. His mother adored and pet
ted him extravagantly. and his proud
father allowed him plenty Of money
to spend on the pleasures Of youth.
The Change in st. Francis
Then came n time when the youth
fell sick. He could no longer enjoy
his CAV young life. but. lay there
thinking. thinking, thinking. rs the
days went by so slowly When at
last he recovered his health, he was
a different Francis. The old pleasures

all TO no effect.
His Remuneration
Az last st. Francis, now about
twenty-five years ~ age, felt called
upon 10 repair n certain chapel in
Assist which was falling into ruins.
As his father was away from town
at the time, Francis helped himself
To his fathers wares. presuming that
his father, who permitted him 10
spend so freely for worldly pleasures,
would, Of course, be willing for him
to spend also upon such noble
cause. So Francis loaded bale OF
precious cloth upon a horse and sold
both horse and goods in a neighbor-
ing town. Then he gave the money
to the holy men TO repair the chapel
When Francis father returned, he
was enraged at his sons act, and
accused him publicly Of theft. Fin

the relation of this occurrence to the sec

His second great danger comes when he
is thirty-five. AT that time. the stars indi-

precursor Of n great war which will follow

in this war whatever, ] would infer that
wounds received in the other struggle Will
incapacitate him from again taking part

The length of his life is indicated as
eighty-fve years. He will be fifty before
he becomes widower and will not re-
marry, using the great wealth that will be
his at that time In charitable enterprises.
There is evidence that he will possess

Irst one comes to him when he Is six years
old and Is connected in the horoscope with
his real father. II will accrue from settle
ment of the litigation now being brought
by his mother against his fathers estate.
Very curiously. the fifth and last fortune,
which is the greatest Of all, has its roots
in that period OF obscurity which occurs
after his second great love experience.
During that time young Mr.. Marsh will
secure the friendship, the trust and the ac-
tual love of persons very powerful in this
strata or society. The stars show steady
and continuous cleavage between those
social factors which are called the masses
and the classes. In the crystallization of
ideas on both sides and increasing and
more perfect organization many powerful
men VIII arise in each Of the opposing
camps.
