THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Thursday, August 4.
Astrologers read tomorrow as rat

AStrologerS read tomorrow as rather
an unimportant day in planetary
government. Benefic aspects dominate.
Under this rule there may be an
urge toward charitable and philan-
thropic efforts. 1t is favorable time
for visiting hospitals or contributing
to their maintenance.
This should be a fairly fortunate
sway under which to set sail for for
eign ports and many tourists will
encounter unusual experiences, it is
foretold.
Speculation in oil should be lucky al
this time, but most perilous later,
Prices are to rise perceptibly by Win
tertime, it is foretold.
Government are now subject to a
direction of the stars making for
precarious tenure on the part of those
who WELD power.
In the United States there may be
a slight reflection of foreign dssatis,
faction that will be felt by executives,
but it will be ephemeral.
The rise of a dictator in European
country again is prophesied and Great
Britain may be concerned, it is
prophesied.
In this advancing period Of unrest,
women must become a Stab1ilZ1ng
power, making for peace and CO.
operation. the seers declare.
New inventions of amazing original.
ity and scope are foreseen and much
travelling in the air is assured, accord
ing to the stars.
Labor is subject to the most en-
couraging direction Of the stars
which will advance proc%srity and
increase power.
For the Autumn fashions Of mill
tary trend will be most significant, it
is prognosticated.
Persons whose birth date it Il
should be careful of all writings and
legal papers in the coming year.
Children born on that day probably
will be exceedingly clever in all that
pertains to social and domestic rela-
lions.

Simplified Garments.

Women's clothes are being simpli-
fled to what appears to some critics to
be the vanishing point. Not so many
years ago no one of our sex would
have dreamed of going without sec

combined in a single shadow-proof

The back panel is lined with very light
