What TomorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Taurus.

You will not experience tomorrow
much sense of exhilaration or any de-
sire to work along lines of originality
or initiative. The planetary aspects
denote lethargy as we'll as an inclina-
ton to quarrel and to be critical.
While it would be impolitic as well
as inadvisable to make the effort to
embark on any new enterprise, the
ordinary routine duties of your life
should receive more than usual atten-
ton and the desire to flop should
be overcome Self-control must also
be exercised, as there will be present
all the time a tendency to act impul-
Sively and speak unCharitably.
Excellent physical condition will be
the lot of a child born tomorrow, and,
although it may not display physical
prowess. it will, on the other hand, be
wiry and possess great powers of re-
sistance. It's mentality will be nor
NAL, it's disposition rather churlish
and it's character not of that strong
fiber with which for it's own good it
should be endowed. Under no cir
cumstances should 1t be allowed to
follow any occupation of a sedentary
nature, as it is pre-eminently fitted
for out of DOORS" 1t will make few
friends, but those that it does make
will have a very great influence on
its life, as, not possessing much will
power of its own, IL Will be easily
amenable to the advice and influence
of those with whom it may associate.
If tomorrow is your birthday, your
sense of humor is rather well devel-
oped and you are capable of excep-
tional originality and rare initiative,
but these qualifications are of little
real value to you. owing to your lack
of self-Confidence and reliance on
your own efforts. You conceive many
brilliant ideas and can visualize many
useful plans, but, as a rule, they prove
to be "mirages" because you are un-
able to make them real and effective.
You do not fail either in industry or
perseverance, but you are naturally
distrustful of yourself and under
estimate your ability.
You are partial to light literature
and fond of amusement. You have
many friends, as your nature is char
acteristically acQuiescent, and the
path of least resistance appeals to
and is always chosen by you.
Your disposition is sunny and cheer
full but 1t is a pity that your charac-
ter is not made of sterner stuff. as If
it were you could easily become nota-
BILE instead of being only mediocre.
Well known persons born on this
date are: William II. Vanderbilt
financier; William Walker, adven-
turer; Louis NJ. Gottschalk, pianist
and composer; Augusta L. Wilson,
author; George Miller Beard, physi-
clan, and Charles f. Maegele, artist.

Ny Neighbor Says:

Dab on your windows with
well worn sponge a little paraffin
when you want to clean them.
Then rub we'll with a damp dus-
ter, finishing with a thoroughly
clean, dry duster, hemmed to
avoid leaving lint behind.
White of egg is most nourish-
ing and should be given freely to
invalids. Beat 1t slightly and add
to tea or coffee: or 1t may be
stirred into any kind Of farinace-
Gus food just before serving.
If a little butter is rubbed
round the spout of a teapot it
will prevent the tea from trick
ling down when 1t is poured out.
II clothes are soaked overnight
the washing is half done before
the actual labor Of washing is
commenced. Hot water fixes
marks and stains; lukewarm wa
ter is the best solvent to use for
all kinds of soiled clothes.
To remove scorch stains from
white garments wet a cloth in
hydrogen peroxide and lay over
the scorched place. Run a hot
iron over the stain and 1t will
disappear instantly. Do not let
1t remain too long.
To clean grease from an iron
sink, try Indian meal in place of
soap.
Graham bread Is wholesome
and sweet and ought to be eaten
frequently in every family. par
ticularly by young people whose
bones and teeth are forming.

Buenos Aires was awake"
l clipped the above from the enter
tanning column by Harry Goldfiam In
the Buenos Aires Herald. Good. isn't
it? And interesting, If true. But 1t
isn't-not a word of 1t! My friend
Harry Is only joking, let me hasten to
tell, and merely turned out the above
as a sample of what English and
American newspapers want.
Buenos Aires isn't any more like
that than Chicago Is. For Buenos
Aires is Chicago,
1t resembles Chicago in being To-
Gated on the level frontier of a great
prairie, and on the edge of a large
body of fresh water. B. A. ranks next
the fourth city in this hemisphere

Eatin city in the world. 1t Is grow
ing fast and will eventually outdo
Paris as the leader of the Latin races.
To be in B. A. is to be in one of the
great cities of today and one of the
far greater cities of tomorrow. A
strange tangle of wide avenues, spIen-

Narrow streets like the business
streets of Boston, but not so winding,
and like them crowded. with facades
like those of Paris and with arched
awnings, and with shops where every
thing that can be bought anywhere
else may be found, where the great
Partisan dressmakers have large
houses. and yet the atmosphere has
that note of progress that character
ICES great American city.
There is the wide and splendid
Avenida de Mayo, with shops and
hotels and Office buildings on either
side, and tables under trees like Paris
own. that Avenda which runs straight
from the beautiful Casa Rosada

House of Congress.
There is that beautiful section

linen frock is a priced possession In
most womens wardrobes. Not only
is linen more expensive than cotton,
but usually it requires greater at
tention. Many women wish that they
could wear linen frocks all Summer.
But they muss so easily, they say,
that they would have to have one
freshly pressed every day.
This Spring the dressmakers have
been making interesting experiments
With linen and sometimes they have
combined kasha with it. The sketch
shows an ensemble consisting of a
gray linen frock buttoned in front
and banded with navy blue linen.
The unlined coat with which 1t is
worn is of navy blue kasha, with
pockets, collar and cuffs edged with
the gray linen.

Forty-Sixth Day.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, March
12.-tBuenos Aires slept in the noon
day sun. From the Cabildo the flag,
waving fitfully in the breeze, betoken-
ed that it was the siesta hour. The
streets were almost deserted, save Cor
a train of bullock wagons that trun-
died along Gale Florida, the drivers
cracking their long rawhide reben-
ques and drinking mate. In the dark
interiors of shops, screened with gay
awnings. the natives slumbered, at
peace with the world. From time to
time a water-seller woke the echoes
with his quaint cry: 'Pulque, senores,
pulque" A lazy policeman, barefoot
ed and with machete cleaning in the
sun, stood indolently against wall
and rolled those interminable brown
cigaros the native smokes. - Night
came and with it the laughing SEN
oritas. showering petals from balco-
MES upon the Romeos below. The tin
king of myriad guitars added har-
mony to the strange cries of the ba-
mana sellers and the fishwives, just re-

there was no knowing where that fire,
the Red Terror, might spread to. A
little change of wind might send it
straight to where they had found
safety, and it would no longer be safe.
So just as soon as Mrs. Timmy had
got her breath and had rested a wee
bit she started to move those babies
again. AS before, she carried them by
the skin of the neck, just as Mother
Cat carries her kittens. She didn't
have to hurry so fast this time, but
she was more tired than before anC
she had farther to go. She went So
Tar with the first one before she could
find another safe hiding place that she
was sadly worried about the babies
left behind, and hurried back SO fast
that again she was painting and out of
breath and so tired that it seemed TO
her that she couldn't, she just
couldn't, make that long journey three
times more.
But when she had carried the first
one TO a place of safety she was wor-
ried for fear something might happen
TO the others while she was gone and
this fear gave her strength to hurry
back. And when she got back she
heGan to worry over the one left all
alone in the new place OF safety. An

enemy might find that baby. Anyway.
it would be dreadfully lonesome and
frightened there in a strange place.
So she rested hardly a moment before
starting back with another.
Where was Mr.. Timmy? Well, you
see, since the coming of the children
there had been no room for Timmy in
that home which now the Red Terror
had destroyed, so Timmy had moved
to an old nest where he had lived be-
fore he met Mrs. Timmy. 1t was out
of the course of the Red Terror, and
he had known nothing about the Red
Terror until it was too late to do any
thing to help, even had he tried. By
the time he discovered the Red Terror
it had swept through where his family
had been living, and so far as he knew
they had been burned to death. So
Timmy was to be excused for not be-
ing on hand and helping Mrs. Timmy.
The carrying of those helpless
babies to a place of safety was a real
test of mother love. Nothing else
could have kept that little mother
going. But at last she dropped the
last of the babies beside the others,
and then, painting and gasping. she
lay down with them and wondered
what she should do If that Red Ter
ror should follow them there and drive
couldn't, she just couldn't, move all
those babies again.
But the Red Terror, the fire which
had been started by burning cigar
ette carelessly thrown from an auto
mobile into some dry leaves by the
side of the old road in the Green
Forest, was steadily moving in an
other direction and Mrs. Timmy had
nothing further to fear from it. 1t
had done all the harm it could do
her for the present, and that was
plenty. But the fear of it still filled
her heart, and she knew that 1t was
carrying that same fear to the hearts
of all who lived in that part Of the
Green Forest.

Some housewives serve boiled but

and carrots are as usual as corn and

Linen and Kasha i'm the Ensemble
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Your little boy or girl learns at
school that one half of all the people
in the world never wear any sort of
clothes save those entirely made OF
cotton, and you yourself may be
aware of the fact that the cultivation
of fax and the making of linen dates
from the dawn of civilization. They
did it way back in the stone age, and
until about $50 years ago linen MAX
ing was a most important textile in
dustry. Sheets and tablecloths, nap
ktns and underwear-all the fabrics

Soup With Egg Sponge.

Beat the white of an egg to a stiff
froth, add a pinch of salt, the yolk of
the egg beaten separately, and
heaping teaspoonful of flour. Do not
beat, but mix quickly and drop into a
pot of boiling water. Do not stir, but
boil just as 1t falls into the water for
a few minutes. Turn and boil on the
other side. Put the desired quantity
of a flavoring extract into a cup, pour
on the water in which the sponge
was cooked, add a portion of the
sponge and serve.

A mothers love may often quail.
But in the end il will not fail.

Mrs. Timmy the Flying Squirrel had
bravely carried her four babies to a
place of safety out of the path of the
Red Terror, and she had been just in
the nick of time. She was quite used
up, was little Mrs. Timmy. How she
did pant for breath How her heart
did thump, But though she and the
babies were safe for the time being,
she was hardly less frightened than
she had been at first. She knew that
