During the business hours Of this
day sinister stars prevail, according
to a~strology. Mars, Uranus, Jupiter
and the Sun are all in malefc aspect.
Early in the morning Saturn is
friendly.
This is a day in which nothing
new should be attempted, for men
acing stars are held to impair judg-
ment.
Suspicious are easily aroused and
quarrels readily precipitated while
Mars is adverse, and for this reason
it is well to avoid all arguments or
controversies.
Uranus continues in a place said
to encourage deception and intrigues.
There will be an increase of crimes
hat depend on double-dealing and
misrepresentation while this aspect
prevails, the seers announce.
Owing to the menacing c~onigura-
ton, journeys may not be safe at
this time. Railway accidents seem
to be foreshadowed.
Floods in the Middle West may
ause some losses to crops and may
ruin certain roads.
All the signs seem to presage
many acute problems for the nation,
and through these there Will be a
quickening of the public conscience,
it is ~prophesied.
Again race questions are to be
agitated and to bring about curious
conditions hat are sectional. but
nevertheless disturbing to the whole
country.
California continues subject to a
direction of the stars that presages
dramatic episodes.
The affliction Of Venus ruler of
the fifth by Mars and Neptune is
evil for the younger generation.
There may be much illness among
children.
Naval and military problems will
take on a new angle at this time, if
the stars are read Alright.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is
should avoid speculation and not
lend money or give security. The
year may be rather a strenuous one.
Children born on this day may be
careless and happy-natured, but In
clined to be improvident. If born
late in the day there is an especially
good augury for success and long
life. Girls probably will marry well.

A Strange Silence

Jordan Spence handed the flash
to me and rushed to Chrys' side.
"She is not dead" he cried and
he chaffed her hands while Bob cut
the strips of pillow casing which
tied his sister.
Chrys sat up. tried to talk. made
helpless gestures.
She vas dumb!
Bob and l perceived Immediately
what had happened. Once before
Chrys had fallen into that queer
weeks.
Spence questioned her. Bob ex-
planned:
"Hysterical paralysis! She has
been terribly frightened"
Chrys nodded, then by gestures
made it clear that we must get out
| of the place as soon as possible. Bob
thrust a pencil and notebook into
her hands-but she flung them upon
the bed. l understood.
"Hurry-hurry! That's what she
wants." I explained. And l led the
way back to the ladder under the
traI door in the closet.
At the foot of the ladder Kathe-
rine and Daddy Lorimer awaited us.
Daddy had improved even a very
dark hour. He and katherine had
ferreted out the genuine "Moet ct
Chandon." It was worth its weight
In gold. Daddy's pockets were cram

tied half a dozen in her motor veil,

Daddy knocked off the head of one
of the precious bottles. Chrys dash
ed it to the ground and pushed her
father before her toward the en-
trance to the cellars.
Hurry l said for her.
We moved cautiously back to the
alcove below the fountain. Nobody
needed to warn another be quiet.
We all realized that a danger men
aced us.
How Chrys had reachedthe upper
floor of the old house we could not
imagine. and she could not tell.
Somebody had bound her, and that
person could imprison us all in the
maze Of cellars.

feel that Bob was close behind me.
The other women followed, Daddy

Lorimer had not forgotten why we
were there.
He spoke to Spence who once
more exhumed the little casket with
its heavy treasure of royal jewels.
The men covered the white velvet
box with an overcoat, and we passed
through the sliding panel in the wall
and breathed fresh air at last.
The hour was late, the alley de-
serted. We walked without haste
along the high wall which backed
that house of such dreadful memo
ries. l prayed the god of chance
never to let me look upon 1T again.
We rounded the corner of the al
ley and entered a side street where
we had parked u car. It-and
Etienne, the most faithful of chauf-
feurS-were gone.
The men conferred in a group
about the casket of gems which
Spence carried in his arms.
We women did not need to be"told
that Etienne had been tricked-and
that already we were being stalked
like hunted animals.

To Keep
Yourself Well
Skin Disease

Skin Disease
My children have a very bad skin
disease and it is something terrible.
They can hardly rest at night on
account of it. We have doctors,
and have tried treatments. but they
can't get it healed. We can get it
healed for a few days and then 1t
comes back.
The difficulty you are having in
Kidding your children of their an
noying skin disease is probably due
to the fact that they are being con-
stantly r~einfected. l suggest that
you apply the remedies which you
have found will cure 1t. and then
bend all your energies toward pre-
venting reinfection.
This means that all the under
clothing, bedding, towels and any,
thing which has come in contact
with the body of each case must be
boiled or baked each time they are
washed.
Keep the children supplied all the
time with fresh articles of this kind
which have been sterilized by boil
ing or baking. Have them sleep
alone.
You will understand that these
articles have become infected by
contact with the child, and their use
afterward, before being boiled or
baked, will naturally infect him over
again.
Flatulence
Please tell me what to do for
f1atulence (gas in the bowels).
1t is lot possible to say definitely.
The trouble may be due to indiges-
ton, and may require attention to
your diet. In many cases, 1t is as
ISOLATED with constipation. If you
suffer from constipation I will be
glad to send you a helpful leafet, If
| you will send me your name and adj
dress. Flatulence can sometimes be
relieved by attention to bodily exer-
else, especially exercise of the alb
dominal muscles. If these simple
measures do not suffice, be sure to
consult your family physician, and
have him give you a thorough ex-
animation.
