HOROSCOPE
Tuesday, January 20, 1921

Tuesday, January 20, 1921
Copyright. 1921. by the Mcclure
Newspaper Syndicate)
Mars and Uranus rule strongly
for evil today. according to astrolo-
gy. The evening is especially men
acing.
The planetary forces seem TO
thwart many progressive and con-
structive movements. making for
reactionary decisions. This may be
apparent in legislative and civic
bodies.
While there may be a tendency to
curtail expenditures for reformatory
work. the seers give warning that
increase of crime will demand hero
ic measures to stop robbery and
murder.
Stars that the selfish
motives of human nature will be
powerful at this time. Pr~ofiteering
will be curtailed in the next few
months but it will not be controlled,
If the stars are read Alright.
Mars is in a place read as indica-
tive of continued agitation on vari-
Gus public questions and the minds
of the people will be greatly in
famed from time to time.
Labor will pass through a period
that will test the strength of the
unions. This prophecy is repeated
by the seers who foresee this year
as eventful. A new leader will rise
TO power.
Uranus gives warning to women
that vanity will lead them into many
troubles. New standards of life
among certain respectable classes
are imperative. astrologers declare,
II national ideas are to be preserved.
Suits concerning breach of prom
Use and involving scandals of vari-
Gus sorts will be numerous, espe-
cially in the spring.
Severe earthquakes r threaten
ed next month soon after the new
noon.
Russia will meet new terrors this
year which will be as turbulent and
as unsettled as 1920. bringing
changes in the government and the
assassination of a prominent Off
cial.
Persons whose birthdate it is
should not journey or remove in the
next few months. Business affairs
should be watched carefully and
will then prosper.
Children born on this day may be
restless and fond Of company but
talented and capable of big achieve
ments.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 3.-Men's wear
piece goods for spring 1922 showed more
activity in the week just passed. There
II a good demand here for worsteds and
woolens and prices are well maintained.
Dress goods continue dull, but a turn
is expected for the better after Labor
dey.
1t is said in the industry that the
American Wooden Company has sold no
and withdrawn its complete line Of fancy
worsteds.
Clothing manufacturers are growing
insistent for prompt deliveries OF mems
piece goods. as prompt shipments are
required on clothing, else retailers may
cancel.
The economic measure adopted durin x
the war Of cutting down the size q
samples is being continued in the WOODEN
market. Mil men express Themselves as
pleased with the result, and one seIling
agent says that in his line the saving
totals about $1,000. The sample IN re-
dnced size appears to be satisfactory TO
jObbers and wholesalers. an exception
Is made in very large plaids.
1t is expected the opening of spring
lines in dress goods by Independents will
not take place until the middle Of Sep

have been holding of with price views
are expected to come into the market
with good orders. 1t is believed cooler
weather will bring a definite turn for
the better.
