What Tomorrow Means to You
By MARY BLAKE.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are,
as they should be on a Sunday, quite
benign, and the only adverse period
occurs in the early afternoon, but it is
Of so short a duration as to not to call
for special mention. You will sense a
feeling Of pleasant relaxation, which
the days observanceS and exercises
will foster, rather than discourage.
The atmosphere throughout the day
will be charged with good emotions.
and generous, forbearing impulses
will prevail to the extent of shutting
out all that Is petty. annoying, or
provocative of anxiety.
Children born tomorrow will be
physically erratic. Apparently in the
best of health, they will, without warn
ing, fall sick. Even before there has
been time to get anxious or become
worried they will have recovered.
Careful alimentation will be very
much in demand, If these children are
to reach a sound and healthy ma ajor-
ity. Their characters will be impul-
sive, and just as readily as they will
be apt to displease by violent out
breaks OF temper. SO, just as quickly,
their boisterous outbursts Of love.
Their lives will lack continuity or set
tied purpose. At times they will be
lazy and Indifferent. At other times
their study and application will amaze
as much as 1t will delight.
II tomorrow is your birthday you
worry too much. Little, insignificant
happenings disturb your equanimity.
and cause you to lose your temper
and control of words and actions. You
are as a result of this weakness and
lacS Of poise prone to be morose and
grouccy. The best antidotes are buoy
ancy and cheerfulness. Try to treat
your l---s worries in the same splen-
did way in which you handle your big
troubles! Do not let sting hurt you
more than a bite! Do not allow the
trifies of life-that are SO soon
forgotten---to stunt your natural, kind,
generous and sympathetic impulses!
You are very thoughtful OF Others s.
especially Of those dependent upon
you, or on whom. you are dependent.
You are methodical, and your extreme
love for place for everything and
everything in its place causes q lot of
the spleen from which you manifestly
suffer.
Marriage should cure you Of your
|superfussiness, especially II the union
is based on a $3.50 understanding, az
such a partnership, to be fraught with
success, must learn to overlook many
small things. while magnifying the
beauty Of the happenings that are

Velvet Hats With Supple Crowns
BY MARY MARSHALL.

our hats. But save % q few sur,se
who always hasten to wear the iatsst
fashions regardless of becomingness,
these crown diversif1cations did not
make much appeal. So the milliners
went back to a crown shape much the
same as that which has been favored
for several years-a shape that very
nearly follows the lines Of the hea6.
So It happens that the crowns Of
hats this Autumn show little or a.
change. 1t Is the arrangement ~
brim that gives novelty. However. -
some Of the milliners in Paris th&
round crown Is regarded as slightly
passee. Reboux, 1t Is said, actually re-
fuses to make round nd-crowned hats.
save for a very influential customer
who is equally stubborn. However,
the squared crowns Of Reboux are only
slightly square and are as supple as
can be. They are quite different from
the hard square crowns that milltners
urged twelve months ago.
You cannot go wrong In selecting
q velvet shape of small or moderate
size for your every day hat. Large
hats do not seem to survive the
frosts in Paris. These wide-brimmed
hats are gone but not forgotten
gone for the cold weather to a great
extent-but ready to be revived with
the return OF warmer weather next
Spring. Velvet in combination with
other materials is well thought OF. II
wide brims are worn at all in Paris
they are usually wide only at front
and side-turning up abruptly IN the
back or dwindling to nothing.
The sketch shows a hat Of con-
servative shape. in deep wine-red vel
vet. 1t turns up in the front and IS
trimmed with a feather ornament at
the side OF the crown.

Peter stared hard and long at Unc'

be. No one so far had looked any
