THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Tuesday, December 20.

Tomorrow will be one of the rarely
/ lucky days, according to astrology,
which finds that benefic aspects Will
predominant strongly while the con-
hguration prevails.
Women are especially fortunate
under this sway, it is foretold, and
they should make the most of every
opportunity that comes to them.
The rule is fairly helpful to women
who have political ambitions, but it
is prophesied that, with one or two
brilliant exceptions, the new year will
be disappointing to them.
This is read as a rarely lucky wed
ding day, the stars presaging pros
perity and progress.
Lovers are well directed under this
planetary government, but they may
easily quarrel.
Romance is to flourish In the new
year.
Theaters should profit from this
/ rule, which promises successful new
plays and rising stars from the ranks
of the younger actors and actresses.
The late hours of the day are sup
posed to be especially suspicious for
/ the signing of contracts.
Advertising is subject to the most
/ stimulating rule, which indicates ire
mendous expansion that will benefit
/ many periodicals.
The seers prophesy that 1928 will
| be a banner year for writers. New
| American authors should gain inter
national fame.
Epidemic Of influenza may affiict
many parts of the world, and should
be watched with view of safeguard.

A dictator is to rise in an unex-
pected quarter, to rule a European
country, it is prognosticated.
Persons whose birth date 1t is may
have a great romance in the coming
year.
Children born on that day probably
will achieve supreme success. Sub
jects Of this sign are changeable and
