What TodayMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE,
Virgo.

Today's planetary aspects reveal
vibrations Of stimulating nature
which incline to activity and rest
leSsness. but also tend to misjudg-
ment All risks and any changes of
radical nature should be carefully
avoided and speculation should be
eschewed. 1t is advisable today to
attend only to duties of a routine
and an obligatory character, and any
quick decision or snap judgment must
not be acted upon, if good results are
either desired or anticipated
A child born today will experience
considerable sickness in early in
fancy. but. with methodical nutrition
and plenty of outdoor air, will sue
cessfully overcome all its ailments
and develop along vigorous and
healthy lines. Its character will be
more stubborn than plant: it's dis
position more aggressive than bend
ing; its mentality very marked. This
child must not be indulged, but, by
useful lessons and careful discipline,
must be taught the advantage of
unselfshness.
If today is your birthday, your
whole life is embittered by general
suspicion of others, words and ac-
tions. What we know about our
.. IL
more usual for you to look for the
evil than the good. If you find your
friend all goodness, you rest content,
but If little bad is present, you look
further and probe. by process pc
culiarly human, to unearth more of
the bad. If you do not find it, you
experience a sense of regret, rather
than one of satisfaction.
The law of self-protection gave rise
to suspicion in the human heart. To
know the designs of your fellow
beings is to be protected from many
harms. AS a fountain. however, can
rise no higher than it's head, so most
suspicion of wrong in others is gen.
orally prompted by the possession. of
faults.
Honest people take but little for
granted if they are good readers of
human nature. but they never sus-
pect without cause or evidence.
There is far more honesty in the
world than a pessimist is willing to
admit. A suspicious nature is small
and mean, narrow and unfruitful, al
ways on the defense, rather than
among mankind doing good. 1t is
better to trust a friend and lose,
than never to trust at all.
Well known persons born on this
date are: Rickard Riker, lawyer and
politician; EleazeT Lord. financier and
author; Joseph Leidy, paleontologist
William Cranch Bond, astronomer:
Elliott Coues, scientist; Maurice
Thompson, author.

BY EDNA KENT FORBES

Halrdressers tell me that during such
a PERIOD there is always a slight fall
ing on in the number of women wbo
come to have THEM hair cut, but II
never lasts long. The bob is SO con-
nenlent and so good for the hair that
II IS likely to remain for some lime.
The craze for shingled hair is dy-
ing out. But severely shingled hair
was never pretty; it was like the
craze for very mannish tailored snits
that we had some years ago. We
went ABOUT in square cut, straight
tallormades, with starched collars
and mems ties, or else high stocks.
and wore waists that differed in no
respect from mans shirt. Most of
US looked very ugly. for only the
irilliest and most feminine sort of
woman looks well in masculine dress.
So with the shingle. It's too hard
and masculine. Its good point is that
it shows off the curve at the back of
the head. A modified shingle is TAX
ing its place, the hair cut long
enough over the top to. brush back
becomingly, but long enough behind
too, SO that the back view is not all
stubby ends.
All the new hairdressing styles are
also emphasizing this curve. The
knot is placed high enough to show
it. and not to break the graceful line
of the shoulders and the back of the
neck.
Very simple styles are the rule for
the coming winter. The hair Is parted
on one side and drawn back to a knot
behind, or parted in the center and
treated the same way. But there is
more art in doing this properly than
in pinning on the most elaborate set
of curls and puffs.

His Funny Question.
Say what you will, to me It's plain
That every one is sometimes vain.

Peter Rabbit.
Peter Rabbit and Grandfather Frog
sat on the bank of the Smiling Pool
talking. Grandfather Frog was at
the edge of the water, while Peter
was higher up on the bank. Peter
had fattered Grandfather Frog by
telling him that he was the biggest
and handsomest Frog in all the Great
World. Grandfather Frog knew that
he was being fattered. but despite
this his vanity was ticled. He felt
very friendly toward Peter.
AS they talked Grandfather Frog
kept swallowing. Peter could see his
throat move every time he swallowed.
1t was as If he had not yet finished
his breakfast and was swallowing
food he had had in his mouth. But
Grandfather Frog didn't talk as if
he had his mouth full of food. After
he had swallowed times enough to
have disposed Of several mouthfuls.
Peter began to get puzzled. He was
wondering If it would be impolite to
ask Grandfather Frog what he was
swallowing when there came a sud-
den interruption.
1t was very sudden interruption.
Grandfather Frog had Just started
to say something when without any
warning at all he made a beautiful
long, clean dive into the Smiling Pool.
and Peter caught just a glimpse of
him disappearing in the mud at the
bottom.
We'll, I never" exclaimed Peter,
staring after Grandfather Frog with
such a funny look of puzzled sur
prise on his face.

voice in a tone of disappointment t

what l am saying of suspenders
may apply as well to women. The
weight of woman's skirt or skirts
should be supported from her shoul-
ders, not from her waist or hips She
should endeavor to hang her clothes
upon kind of skeleton waist, which
is practically modified suspenders.
The present fashion in women's
clothing is in favor-of this kind of
support and tends to make the old
waist or hip support obsolete

our hind feet the natural supports
of our internal organs have been hard

whether we wore belts or suspenders.
In the case of the boy, 1 don't

how tight his belt is But as soon
as Winter comes-with heavier cloth

around the leg below or above the
knee do constrict return veins and
tend to cause varicose enlargement.

My Neighbor Says:

Reading in bed or in a reclfn-
ing position is bad for the eyes.
1t puts undue strain upon mus
cles already overtaxed. Don't
forget that sometimes, as in the
case Of Brights disease, an i'm
pairment of eyesight may be
the first apparent symptom of
disease. Dimming eyesight may
often indicate the need of an
entire physical examination, as
well as the need of consulting
d capable oculist and being fit
ted properly with glasses.
If new enameled saucepans
are placed in pan of warm
water and allowed to come to a
boil they will last much longer,
without cracking or burning,
than If they are used immedi-
ately.
Crate bread crumbs into pan
before putting in batter and
cake will never burn on the
bottom.
The ice box is a source of
food contamination. And food
contamination is the beginning
of ill health. Typhoid fever
has been traced to the use Of
improperly cared for food. 1t
is good plan to flush the ice
box pipe once a week at least
with hot soda water and to
scrub it inside with soap and
water, letting it dry in the sun.

MORE OIL In APRIL Is
SHOWN BY RECORD

According to the latest bulle
tin of the Northern Oil Informa.
tion bureau of Shelby; published
by Fred c.. Platt, more oil was
run through the Illinois Pipelines
during April 1924, thar in any
previous month in the history OF
the Kelvin field; 122.027 barrels
went from the field to the tank
farm at Sunburst, making an
average of more than 1000 bar
rels per day, not including the
oil used in the field in firing
boilers, small topping plants, the
Absher renfiery and the Montana
Giant refinery, and what was
shipped from Kelvin, piped there
through the Independent pipe
line which reached to the Sho-
shone group in the south end of
the field.
That Kelvin field is becoming a
factor in the Rocky Mountain re-
gion may be realized from a per-
sual Of the pipeline runs, the
latest weekly average now availa-
BILE being the figures for the
weeks ending April 10 and April
26. In the week ending April 10,
held the second largest
run of the entire Is fields of the
Mountain district, with a
daily average of 1890 barrels.

Soldier field edged her out of
second place by going to 5000
barrels per day against 1926 for
