What TomorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Aries.

Tomorrows planetary aspects are
quite complex, and indicate that in
the early morning, stimulating infiu
ences VIII prevail: they change sud-
denly, and a sluggish condition pre-
dominates. In the evening they again
change and become at once benign
and favorable. A great deal OF good
work can be successfully accom-
plished by you during the early part
Of the day, especially along inventive
or mechanical lines. Attention only
to routine matters should occupy your
attention in the afternoon. In the
evening, however. you can let your
self go, within, of course, reasonable
limits, as the prospects are that any
thing you attempt to do Will yield
profitable results.
A child born tomorrow will enjoy
exceptionally good health and will be
practically immune to sickness and
to accident. 1t will, in all probabil-
ity, possess great strength, but Will
be, in spite Of this, gentle, unselfish
and considerate. 1t will never be
slow to exert it's physical prowess to
resent wrong, and, though of quick
temper, will be equally as quick to
forgive and forget. 1t may not shine
at study, although 1t will always get
by" but 1t will be proficient in all
outdoor sports and pastimes. This
child will find its greatest happiness
and achieve its greatest success in
some outdoor sphere of work. Its
trend Will be mechanical or manual
and not mental.
A moderate share of material sue
cess has, SO far, attended those whose
birthday Is tomorrow. They would
have accomplished more If they had
been always willing to be guided by
their own inclinations and impulses
rather than by the advice of others.
Their judgment is good; their vision
is clear; their intellectually is keen.
They, however, are lacking in moral
courage and stamina both of which
attributes are essentials of success.
They, in order to come into their own,
should act more on their own initia-
tive and not be so easily dissuaded
| from attempting those things they
would like to attempt. They are gen.
orally very happy in their home life.
| as, although not capable of a great
love, they enjoy the contentment OF
| a constant and faithful affection.
Well known persons born on this
date are: Isaac I. Stevens. soldier
distinguished in the Mexican and
Civil Wars; Rufus B. Bullock, Gov
ernor of Georgia; Austin Flint, physi-
clan: Charles II. Deere, manufacturer

THE LONG HALL OF JOHNNY
CHUCK'S HOUSE.
which was just what Johnny had
done. AS he went further and further
toward the Chuck bedroom Peter
continued to think. fast. Polly Chuck
behind him was saying things not at
all pleasant to listen to. She was
telling Peter just what she was going
to do to him when she caught him.
Peter knew that she could do just
what she said she would do. No, 1t
wasn't at all pleasant to hear.
There must be a back hall leading
to back door somewhere" thought
Peter. Johnny and Polly Chuck are
too clever to have a home with only
one door The thing to do is for
me to find that and get out as quickly
as possible before Reddy Fox thinks
of 1t. 1t may be he knows where
1t is If he does and thinks of it
he will hurry over to it, for he will
guess that Polly Chuck will drive me
out that way. But if he doesn't
know where 1t is, or doesn't think Of
II, 1 will have a chance to get away"
So you see, Peters wits were work
ing fast and his legs were working
just as fast. In fact, they were work
ing so fast that he almost ran past
the entrance to that back hall. just
I'm the nick of time he saw it and
turned into 1t. He knew 1t was the
back hall because it slanted up, which
meant that 1t led to the surface of the
ground. Polly Chuck, still saying
spiteful things about a person who
would enter the house of other people
without being invited, turned into
the back hall, Snd Peter knew that
he must keep on.

BEDTIME STORIES 3 3
BY THORNTON
W. BURGESS

His heart began to beat a little
faster as he saw just a wee, bit of
light up .aliead and knew that 1t came
through the doorway. Where would
he find himself when he came out?
Was Reddy Fox waiting there for
him? Why couldn't Polly Chuck be
satisfied now and go back to her bed
roora? Then he could sit just inside
the doorway and make, sure that the
way was clear.
But 1t was clear that Polly Chuck
would not be satisfied until he was
out Of her house. There was nothing
for it but to go out of that back door
as fast as his legs could take him
and trust to fortune that he could
reach some other place of safety be-
fore Reddy could catch him. Peter
drew a. long breath and shot out of
the back door Of Johnny Chuck's
house, lfpperty- -lippertylip, as fast as
those long legs of his could take him,
and his eyes rolled this way and that
way to see where he was and where
Reddy Fox was.

After all, there were plenty more boys to be
had if the SCOT and starvation combined brought
on tuberculosis to end the little chimney sweeps

It was hard fight in England to do away
with this trade in childish life as a machine for

It won the fight in general against destructive

out the coal PLENTY OF ENGLISH AND
WELSH WOMEN WERE WILLING TO HAUL
1T OUT ON THEIR HANDS AND KNEES, AS
YOU SEE HERE.
What this did to the health of women, to
their hands and their knees, to their bodies as
they worked day after day, NOT EIGHT
HOURS, MIND YOU, but for full day of
twelve hours or longer, you can imagine.
But they were told it had "pleased the Lord"
to put them in that position, so it was their duty
to get down on their hands and knees and haul
the little cars full of coal as long as life and
strength lasted
The gentleman that owned the Mines and
had never done days work in his life got, the
profit on the coal and spent it, wherever his
fancy pleased, to fill his stomach cover his walls
with paintings tapestries, send his boys to the
finest schools and the best universities. And it
was thought then that this would 60 on FOR
EVER, because the Lord wanted it SO.
The next picture in the cartoon above shows
what formerly would have seemed a perfectly"
natural proceeding.
The man at table stuffing himself with food
is the boss chimney sweep. The tiny creature
beside him, half starved is little sweep sent
down the chimney to clean out the SCOT and re-
establish a strong draught for the fire.
The chimneys were not wide; the boys body
must be THIN the chest and his shoulders MAR
ROW, otherwise he couldn't get up and down
those chimneys, AND, OF COURSE, THE CHIN
NEYS HAD TO BE CLEANED.
If the little chimney sweep gained few
Slnces his employer would cut off his food for
while and THIN HIM DOWN AGAIN.
That seemed all right to the civilization of
that period, and it is only few years ago. Chin
neys MUST be cleaned. There was no question
about that. Men were too big to go down the Chin
neys Little boys, if they didn't eat too much,
could be kept small enough to go down the chin
neys Therefore, feed them little keep them small,
and let prosperity have good draught up the
chimney for its fires,
