What 7 TomorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAME.
Genlini.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
negative. They do not denote any en-
couragement nor, on the other hand,
do they indicate failure or disappoint-
ment. 1t is not an auSplclouS Occa-
sion for the launching of any new en-
terprise, nor is it Il good opportunity
for carrying out any radical changes.
neither is it advantageous Tor travel,
either by land or sea. nder ali con-
ditiuns, it is advisable to attend only
to routine duties and to maintain poise
and equilibrium. Do nothing out OF
the ordinary, so that nothing eX-
traordinary will happen, as the ex-
traordinary, although it may inure to
your benefit, may also work to your
disadvantage.
Children born tomorrow will pass
through the period Of infancy with
little or no trouble. They will not be
immune to sicknesses, but such all
ments as they do have will readily
yield to ordinary treatment and old
fashioned remedies. They promise
to attain physical normalcy long be-
fore they reach maturity. Tempera-
mentally they will prove to be truth
full, frank and clean-cut. They will
always he prepared to stand the con-
sequences of anything that they have
done and will never bemoan their fate.
They will be ambitious and, if allowed
to pursue their own aims, will achieve
considerable success.
IF tomorrow is your birthday, your
hesitation, your inability to reach a
quick decision, has caused you, and
will cause you, considerable disap-
pointment. You depend too much on
the opinions of others and too little
on your own judgment. You possess
clear vision, but lack confidence in
your own decisions. In other words,
you have little or no self-assurance,
and you must realize by now that IL
you do not believe in yourself you
cannot carry conviction to others. You
have very striking personality and
your friends are legion. These are as
loyal to you as you are to them.
In affairs Of the heart you are not
sufficiently aggressive to win what
you want. In love, especially, he or
she who hesitates is lost, and while
you are trying to make up your mind
some one else carries off the prize.
Well known persons born on that
date are Charles H. Haswell, civil en-
gineer; Sydney H. Gay. journalist and
author; Worthington Whittredge,
artist; Christopher G. Langdell, edu-
Gator; Henry Trimble, scientist and
educator; Jacob c. Schurman, edu-

Maryland Is for Reunion.
ANNAPOLIS, May Fl, 1776.-The
Maryland convention at today's ses'
sion emphatically declared its opposi-
ton to q declaration of independence.
1t informed it's deputies in the Con
tinental Congress that they are to
continue to govern themselves by the
instructions given to them in Decem-
ber, "in the same manner as If the
said instructions were particularly
repeated The December inStruc
tions forbade the Marylanders in Con
gi'eSS to have Il part in any prof
ect for "a separation from England.
The convention announces that it is
firmly persuaded that a reunion
with Great Britain on constitutional
principles would most effectually Sc
cure the rights and liberties and in.
crease the strength and promote the
happiness of the whole empire-ob-
jects which this province hath ever
had in view
Four colonies have voted on inde-

the only one which has decided in

to it's fullest. II there Is no snauy

placed we'll, the sand pile beneath IL
will be shady and the sand Kept dry.
BY painting the plano box 1t can pe
made to resemble a play house.
Simple Tents.
When the children get q little older
a tent will give them an equal amount
Of pleasure. 1t can be put up with
little trouble and ineXpensively. Inc
important thing Is to have the ma
terial actually waterproof. There are
many models in tents for children. but
none is simpler than a strip of awning
cloth over a ridgepole between two
sets of upright supports. The four
corners are finished with rope, which
fastens about staples driven firmly in
to the ground. Any parents who are
at all mechanical can make and put
up such a tent.
Shape Formed by Sides.
If more protection is wanted. make
flaps by sewing two lengths to each
side. These should overlap slightly
where they come together and be tri-
angular in shape, so that the bottom
of each portion will reach to the
ground, and no more, when the tent
is up. These shaped sides give form
to the tent. The tent can be closed en-
tirely when the sides are down, or one
side can be fastened back like an en-
trance doorway. or both sides can be
fastened back and so allow for q cur.
rent of air through the tent.
Tent Floor.
The ground may be the floor of such
tent, or boards can be nailed to
cross beams on the under side and a
wooden floor be made. The advan-
tage of the wooden floor is that in
rainy weather. If the sides of the tent
are kept closed, the floor remains dry
and the tent can be used in showery
weather as well as in fair.

Clues to Character
BIZ J. O. ABERNETHY.
Sly as a Fox.

You do not often see q profound
thinker, nor even a man or a woman
of fortitude and prudence, with weak,
high eyebrows. which In some meas
ure divide the forehead.
Every minute variation denotes diff
ferences which may be highly sig
nif1cant and important. Eyebrows that
are situated far apart indicate quail
ties quite different from those that
are joined in the center. Each Of
! these factors assists us in unfolding
the meaning of each individual brow.
Observation will show that the brow
is quite as individualized as any other
facial feature.
There is a great difference in the
size, shape and form of the brows. II
the brows present 81 very wide space
and are extremely arched, it indicates
an impractical, unreasoning character
An oblique, hairy brow, when extreme
Is an index TO q character that Is
vacillating.
Brows that slant upward from the
inner ends are certain signs of deceit
craft and treachery. II the eyes are
very light, the character will be cold
unfeeling and sometimes cruel and
brutal. The person with brows as de
scribed will also be secretive and in.
dulge in petty tricks and schemes II
attain his ends. He is the individual
who at all times is as sly as fox.

The telephone Is rapidly usurping
the position formerly held by the teie-
graph in control Of trains and trans
mission Of railroad business.
Train orders are now being trans
mtted by telephone on more than 81
per cent Of the railroads Of the eoun-
try.
Not only are telephones being used
for transmission Of train orders, but
telephone stations are being installed
on many roads at each signal bridge
and siding, and are connected wllh
adjacent interlocking or block sta
tons. so that almost constant COM
munication can be had BY train crews
with headquarters.
Many railroads have also provided
means by which observation cars on
certain trains are connected with the
CITY telephone service, so that a
passenger up TO the time the tram
leaves the station, may communicate
with any point in the city.
Constantly expanding uses Of the
telephone and the radio is bringing
about a condition in the United States
where everybody will be constantly IN
touch with everybody else.
