HOROSCOPE. :
SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 4. Iszz.

SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 4, Is22.
Mercury and Uranus rule this day
in kindly sway. according to .astrol-
ogy.
1t is a sway particularly favor
able to brain workers. for it is be-
lieved to stimulate the mind and to
arouse the activity Of the imagina-
tion.
Mercury foreshadows some sort
of good news for the people of this
country and newspapers are to
tenefit from the benehc aspect Of
the planet.
Both men and women should find
this a lucky planetary government
under which to sign contracts or to
agree on new professional ventures.
The day should be an auspicious
one for meetings that carry with
them possibilities of romance 1t is
lucky' rule for making new
friends of opposite sex.
Girls are warned that there is at
hand a strong reactionary influence
that will encourage a return to old
time standards of womanly conduct
and this trend will cause trouble
for all who are too lax in their
sta sndards under the after-war mad
ness of dress and manners.
Uranus in the fifth house denotes
widespread changes and reforms In
the manner of conducting amuse-
ment enterprises. Theatrical or
ganizations as we'll as the motion
pictures will be affected by this
rule of the planet.
Under this planetary government
diplomacy should be aided and IL Is
prognosticated that this country
will have even closer relations with
foreign powers than hitherto indi-
Gated. -
Naval and military matters will
come prominently forward this
month, the seers foretell, for Mars
is in a place that seems to fore
shadow movement of troops in more
than one country.
The winters death rate should be
lower than usual for the public
health will be safeguarded more
carefully than ever before.
Many scandals among men and
women in prominent positions again
are foretold. A divorce Of national
interest Is presaged.
Persons whose birthdate 1t is

change that will be fortunate.
Chndren born on this day prob
ably will be clever and ingenious.

IL was the day before her we'd
ding.
How she lived through II, Jeanne
could never afterward recall. How
she managed to smile and chat and
laugh and dance-and dress!
1t seemed to her excited imagina-
ton that her maid had turned into
an ogress who forces her into one
after another change Of costume
She felt ridiculously like a name

She stole a moment to admire ii
while the maid held IL at arms
length for her approval. II was a
delectable creation of ivory velvet
and rare lace. The veil was a mist
of tulle. lace-bordered, and was to
be wreathed with fresh orange bios
some. Brocade slippers with bow
knots of real diamonds would COM
plete the costume, and lace hose of
the veriest cobweb. The wrap
which her future mother-in-lawh had
sent for her to wear to the church
and back to the hotel for the re-
ception. was Of tailless ernline
worth a kings ransom
Jeanne knew that In the next
roomIseveral women reporters were
getting a list Of the gifts from her
secretary. and that. as soon as she
had departed for her luncheon, the
ehcient Miss Carruthers would
bring them in for a glimpse of the
gown and its accessories.
As she adjusted a hat, bearing p
sweeping plume of paradise feath-
ers. she sighed, though she scarcely
knew why.
Here was the realization OF he
ambition within her grasp. and she
was too weary Of body and soul to
appreciate -, She thought with a
sense of infinite relief of the long
cruise on the Barstowe yacht.
