When you so TO bed always take a

FRIDAY. MARCH 10. 1e,o

Smiling stars greet this day, ac-
cording to astrology Mercury.
Saturn and Mars are all in benefic
aspect.
The rule is particularly promis-
ing to all who seek notice in the
public prints, making for praise
rather than criticism.
1t is a sway under which IL push
all advertising schemes for the
newspaper and magazine pages will
be especially potent in attracting
attention while this rule prevails.
Messages that are encouraging
and provocative of confidence in
the maintenance of peace seem to
De indicated as coming from foreign
countries.
All the signs are most favorable
for American diplomacy which is to
gain added respect in the next year
through some great crisis that is
wisely met.
This is a luck day for signing
contracts. especially those that have
to do with oil. minerals and lands.
The aged again have the best di-
reetion of the stars and old mems
counsel should be respected in a
public matter of great moment.
There is a fortunate rule for
farmers ana all who draw their
sustenance from the soil.
Manufacturing should feel the
stimulating influences of the stars
today.
Tariff problems may be solved
under this direction of the stars,
which makes for foresight and
sound judgment
Honors for an army officer are
foreshadowed and there is to be
legislation that is favorable to our
soldiers.
Spain and Hungary are to suffer
from Internal troubles and there
may be disastrous fires in both
countries which are under a sinister
sway of the stars.
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury of a happy, sue
cessful year. Recognition that
means public notice Is probable.
Children born on this day are
likely to be clever, Industrious and
altogether trustworthy. They will
succeed but may often suffer from
intrigues and jealousies.
