What Today Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Gemini.

Conditions are fairly good for gen.
eral affairs until noon. and there
after. three excellent aspects occur
which are very favorable for business
matters. They are especially good in
their influence on professional under
takings, commercial contracts and
electrical work. A certain amount of
aggressiveness can be safely coun-
seled today.
a child born today will be abnor-
mally responsive to the conditions by
which it is surrounded in its early
youth, and will be more than ordi-
narily influenced by the advice and
counsel of it's elders. Every care
should, therefore, be exercised to de-
SO that it's mind may receive training
which, later on in life, its character
will reveal.
If today is your birthday you
would derive much greater enjoyment
from life, and give much greater
would cease to contradict and argue
on each and every pretext. You have
a character and disposition which. un-
der ordinary conditions. would charm
and attract; you do not know, how
ever how to make a good window
display of your wares, and mix in
with the fine goods of pleasantness
and amiability the coarser merchan-
disc of dispute and contrar1ety.
If principles of vital Importance
were involved; if right and wrong
were the issues: If success or failure
were at stake; then argument and OPP
position would be justified and de-
manded. When. however, there is no
principle involved, no question of
right or wrong, no risk of success or
failure It Is at once vexing and ag-
gravating to have every little plan
criticized, every expressed thought
debated, and even unimportant &C
tions censored.
In your business or professional
life, your associates think well of you.
but never fail to lament what they
term your "cantankerousness." AS a
result of your habit of captious criti-
cism, your advice is rarely sought,
and conferences with you are studiously
avoided.
In his home life the fault-finder is
never very happy. nor does he radiate'
ment. Many a kindly act is stillborn
because of the chill of undeserved
criticism: many charitable thought
remains unuttcred because of the ar
gumentative reception it would en-
counter.
Argument in cause worthy Of de-
bate, is weapon at once powerful
and useful. Argument, for the sake
of argument, ceases to be a weapon
and becomes only a foolish habit.
Well known persons born on this
date are: William A. buckingham,
Governor Of Connecticut; Frederick
Fraley, financier; Albert G. Riddle,
lawyer; Amelie J. Boomer, reformer;
Pierre G. T. Beauregard, soldier; Dan-
iel L. Braine, rear admiral.

the parks. and looking on at life
from the seat of a motor, but they
prefer this sort of life to the rough
exposure of the country.
"The pity of 1t, to my mind, is to
see a large, splendid dog, a naturally
adventurous fellow, who should be
able to take long, glorious runs in
the open, bound down to the re-
straints of the city. To watch rangy
police dog, collie or a Great Dane
tugging at a leash. pacing up and
down a wire inclosed yard, or taken
out to walk at night up and down a
cement pavement, is enough to make
me miserable. City people should
choose city dogs, small indoor ami
mals-such as Pekinese, French bull
dogs, and the various toy animals.
which thrive on very little exercise
and have modest appetites.
Il know a beautiful collie whose
owners moved to the city after living
in the suburbs, and of course took it
along. Used to taking long runs
through the woods, eating prodi-
giously and sleeping outdoors. this
dog was so tortured by its imprison-
ment in town that it had to be sent
away to live with country fo1k--its
own kind. 1t was sheer cruelty to
conf1no it within the limits of city
streets. But true city dogs are hap
piest in their own environment. and
you need not be sorry for them"

Choosing China.

The prettiest possible dishes won't
prevent a poor cooks serving burnt
or otherwise spoiled food--every bride
knows that, But because she also
realizes that even her successful con-
coctions will taste better when they
are served up in attractive china. she
looks for beauty, as well as dura-
bility, when she makes her choices.
IT is always sensible to select china
from open stock" 1t is especially SO
for the young bride. If she buys a
set" instead, she is likely to find,
when she is ready to add to her stock
have been broken, that the pattern is
no longer made.
If, on the other hand, she buys from
open stock" she can add to her sup
ply of china from time to time. as her
social needs demand or the adequacy
of her pocketbook permits. The mod
ern bride sees the suitability of this
time -to-time china buying also from
the standpoint Of smallness of the
family, and, probably, scarcity of
closet room. The "hundred-piece set
complete" must be without tempta-
tions for her.
Now, there are three factors the
bride, in common with more expert
enced housekeepers, should consider
in selecting china. These are glaze
body and pattern.
Glaze is the protective surface
formed by varnish preparation
fused by extreme heat to the basis
of the piece.
Body" is the basic material itself
and it is usually either of porcelain
china" or stoneware. Porcelain table
ware Is the finest of all, and, OF
course. the most expensive. China
so named because it had its origin in
China-is the medium grade used In

A large table in the millinery de-
partment of New York department
store was a veritable picture gallery.
1t was filled with felt cloches, on
each of which was painted a lovely
landscape-real oil paintings of de-
lightful scenes from all around the
world.
One picture hat showed a clump of
poplars silhouetted against a powder
blue felt. They We're deep indigo
trees. and behind them peeped a sill
YER moon. which~cast a silver path
way across a lake. That hat is shown
here.
Another hat chose Fujiyama for its
scene. Fuji was also on a powder blue
hat, and it's snow was white, and it's
clouds. And one saw this scene through
scarlet Japanese gateway. This is
also shown in the sketch.
Other hats depicted the Alps; or q
tropical scene with waving palms; or
tossing waves of deep green, white
capped, on a jade green shape.
Some designs ran to houses. One
showed the New York sky line, and
one the minarets of a Russian cathe-
dral. Another showed a little house
so simply drawn that a kindergarten
child might have done it with piece
of chalk.

the average home. American china is
built for hard usage as well as
beauty, but English and Oriental
china is quite fragile. Stoneware, or
'whiteware." is that thick heavy ma
terial of which are made the far
from-dainty type of dishes used by
many restaurants and lunchrooms
BY pattern" naturally, is mean;
the shape and design of the dish. The
design should be simple and appro-
pirate, and the bride who can hay :
but one set of tableware should Sc
lect one which will harmonize with
various plans of table decoration. Ey
following this principle. she can
achieve variety in her table setting s
without additional expense.
The bride cannot err in selecting a
flower pattern. not too intricate or
colorful, or a gold band design. If she
selects the gold band, however, she
must remember that it is easily
washed off" If she uses strong soaps
in washing the dishes.
Fancy handles and large knobs she
should class in the same group as
over-ornate patterns-all are of ques-
tionable taste-besides, their suscep-
tibility to awkward contact with cup
board doors and for getting knocked
off in dish washing.

closed car. "I always feel so sorry

they can do this than really are able
to. But there are, of course, women
here and there who have real talent
in making clothes, who wouldn't
think of taking the work up as a
profession, even when you tell them
that English peeresses and Russian
princesses have gone into dressmak-
ing in England and that more than
one well known American society
woman has turned her talents to ac-
count in this way. :
But these women are willing to
make their own clothes, and for
them the little wrap to go with each
frock costs only the comparatively
small sum that the additional mate

Temptation Proves Too Much
for Sammy Jay.
Who TO temptation pays no heed.

-O,d Mother Nature.
Sammy Jay is an opportunist. My,
isn't this big word? What 1t means
is. that Sammy is one of those who
believe, in making the most of op-
portunity. He hadn't intended to
steal any eggs that morning. You
know 1T was his plan to make every
body think Chatterer the Red Squir-
rel was the only one who would steal
eggs. He knew that If Chatterer was
discovered two or three times trying
to steal eggs he would be the one to
be blamed If some of those eggs were
stolen without the thief being seen.
But Sammy had been sitting in a
tree where he could look right down
in and see the eggs of Mrs. Robin
Thief! Thief! Thief" the instant
Chatterer had started to climb that
tree, and he had been the first to
chase Chatterer. But as soon as all
the other birds had come flocking to
chase Chatterer out of the Old Or
chard Sammy Jay had stopped. All
the other feathered folk were occu-
pied in chasing Chatterer. No one
was watching him. No one was CIV

another opportunity like it. Sammy
looked this way and looked that way.
No one was looking at him. Straight

There were four eggs in that nest.
Sammy's eyes glistened as he looked
at them. He dearly loves eggs. Two
minutes later there were only some
pieces of broken shell in that nest.
The feathered folk were all over at
the edge of the Old Forest nearest the
Green Forest. Sammy turned and flew
in the other direction.
Mrs Robin was the first to return.
You see, she was the one who was
most anxious. 1t was the tree in
which her nest was where Chatterer
had been discovered. Straight to her
nest she flew. For second she
couldn't believe her own eyes. Those
eggs were gone! Poor Mrs. Robin,

not imagine. You see, they knew
