What Today Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Aquarius.

An unusually benign and fortunate
set of aspects operates throughout
the day and evening. They especially
favor matters of art, literature, edu-
cation, health and property interests.
The indications are so distinctly and
definitely encouraging that some con-
centrated effort should be made to
reap some advantage, as only on rare
and exceptional occasions are the
| astrological signs as favorable as
they are today. Even though they do
not presage so much success for ordi-
nary business as for the lines of en-
deavOr mentioned, they do denote fair
achievements. and there is scarcely
any field of effort that will not yield
to the encouraging aspects.
\ child born today will enjoy an
exceptional immunity from the all
ments OF infancy. 1t may, however be
! subject TO one or more serious i'll
nesses prior to adolescence. These
need not cause any worry, provided
there be furnished the proper care
and attention. 1t viii develop CON
siderable literary ability and be an
omntvorous reader. 1t will also be
| artistic, intellectual and conservative
very amiable, even-tempered and al
ways just. It wiz be magnetic, win
some and have a great many friends
and no real enemies. 1t will be Il
great lover of home and have very
few interests outside of it.
If today is your birthday anniver-
sary, you are Independent, tactful,
diplomatic and self-reliant, fond of
dressing well and generally careful OF
appearances. You are Secretive in
your dealings, but never to the extent
OF trtckery. You are loving and low
able, and care a great deal for the
good opinion of your friends and ac-
quaintances.
You possibly are a little too vain
for your own good, and though neat
ness and good appearance are es-
sential factors, any love of display or
exceptional fastidiousness borders on
the ostentatious. 1t would possibly
conduce more alike to your happiness
and success if you were little more
frank in your dealings with those
around you. Reserve and caution as
business assets are not to be despised
but sometimes the distinct advantage
lies with the one who is willing to
put all his cards on the table face
upward"

date are John Delafield. banker; John
Hiram Lathrop, educator; George E.

Young Women's Pompadour Frocks
BY MARY MARSHALL.

mean when you speak of pompadour
silk
The pompadour headdress Is of too
recent fashion not to be understood.
Twenty years ago when a woman
spoke of her "pompadour" she meant
only one thing. Girls wore rats in
their pompadours then, s they bob
their hair today. Some rs years ago
If woman spoke of her "pompadour
the chances were she meant her par
asol-for the name was applied then
to a little sunshade with a folding
handle-made Of moire antique-the
priced possession of every woman who
sought the reputation of being fash
ionable.
Ever since the supremacy in Paris
of that remarkable Kings faVorlte,
the word pompadour as applied to
silk has meant that it bore a pattern
of leaves and flowers, pink and blue
in color, sometimes rurther embel-
liShed with gold. At the present time
there are pompadour frocks for young
girls-they are considered quite de-
mure and naive for the young in
genue. The bodice is tight but
straight the skirt is bouffant and
short, and the material is printed taf-
feta, tiowered and of pink and blue.
And so the name of this unfor-
tunate courtesan goes down in the
fashions of the day.

have. Watson, the veteran of
GER 800 ring fights, is rated as a

against clever man in the person
Of Burnay, who is regarded as one
of the best men ever turned out
by the Philippine Island, the native
lair Of many topnotch fighter.

Burnay is larger than the ma

records show that he has had "a

off his feet, although he has mot
many of the toughest men on the
coast including Johnny Wcbber, Cy
Murphy, Buck Curtiss, Kid Mex,

He also has Il win and three draws
with Young Papke to his credit and
according to his manager, Jerry
Clark, Burnay is able to hold his
own with the toughest of them.
Burnav II year ago was a junior
lightweight. Toda. he is to be con
sidcrcd in the junior welterwcight
division, though he can still make
the lightweight limit
For all round interest, the return
match between Tony Escalunte and
Dick Gucrta, is easily as important
as the main event. Billy Mcmahon
and the san Diego boys figured last
week that Gucrta was entitled to at
least draw decision aud there will
be no holding back this week, and
instead Gucrta will be sent out to
win from fhc start. Tony IL going
