exclaimed. "Wiggily has run away
leaving the rug half beaten! I might
have known he'd do that, OF ad-

that rug myself"
She ran down, took UP the stick
and began banging the rug as hard
as she could, making the dust fly.
Then, al Of a sudden, from be-
meath the rug came cries Of:
L. 49,

HOROSCOPE

FRIDAY, AUG. IL.

FRIDAY, AUG. IL.
This promises 10 be a day Of most
conflicting occurrences and situa-
tions, according to a most complex
series of mutual and lunar aspects.
on the whole, the latter are favor
able, excepting for the disconcerting
Uranian Influences, prophetic of
some abrupt disru ptive force which
may precipitate sudden and radi-
cal change or departure. There is a
warning against fire or thieves. Also
there is danger of loss through spec
ulation. New projects should sue
coed, and all ventures requiring ini-
tiative and forceful manipulation are
under suspicious astral influences.
Avoid change or Journeys, however.
Those whose birthday il is have
the forecast Of a very active and
eventful year. Avoid change, specu-
lation and danger from fire or theft
A child born on this day will be
active, quick and clever. but may
be careless and inclined to frequent
change. 1t Will succeed in its un-
dertakings. however.

I would like TO have your advice

But YOU will not win the respect nor
the friendship Of any boy by forcing
your attentions upon him, Dolly.
Don't give this boy the letter you

and show him you are interested in
