THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Wednesday, May Is.

Tomorrow will be day of many con-
fiicting planetary influences, according
to aStrology, which finds the sway
disturbing.
The early morning is fairly good for
financial transactions, and especially
lucky for those who pay their debts,
Newspapers should benefit, for there
Is prognostication of exciting events
that stir public interest.
This should be fortunate rule for
all who advertise and unusually bene-
fetal for personal publicity.
independence should be the keynote
. while this rule prevails, for 1t will avail
little to seek financial or other aid.
China is subject to continued revolu-
tons and the country is menace0 by
the most serious conditions.
There is sign supposed to stir the
minds of the people and to cause care
full consideration of political and gov
ernmental matters.
The planetary government Is most
promising for educators and for stu
dents. This years college graduates are
subject to q wonderful direction Of the
stars, astrologers announce.
Great leaders are to come to the
front In the United States, for the new
era Is now well advanced, and the old
heroes, civic and military, have dis
appeared.
In the Balkans and in China. It is
foretold that great military dictators
will arise.
Persons whose birth date it is may
expect year of surprising and fortu-
nate events il their lives.
Children born on that day probably
will be original and talented. but much
misunderstood. They should be wisely
trained and carefully educated.

SPRINCTIME
By d. c. PEATTIE.

He sings now continually, the wood
thrush, dropping contented notes into
the cool, green. forest air, notes liquid
with the secret running OF brown
brooks in unfrequented places. For now
is his love season, and 1t is one of the
things that every woman knows, that
there are as many kinds OF lovers in
the world as there are men.
The redbird is challenging, taunt-
ing cavalier gallant: as Lotharia the
catbird has no vocal esial: the wren
is tireless persuacAer of his suit. But
witched; the tender emotion possesses
him entirely, and where it Ares the
blood Of other birds 1t moves him tn
mysticism and enduring loyal content
ment.
It Is strange how many people call
the song of any thrush that Of the her
mit thrush The name OF hermit has
some special magih In IL that makes
one wish to call any thrush by that
name. But though the voice Of the
spirit that sings from an unseen choir
stall Is not so rare as some would have
us suppose, 1t Is not often heard close
to the haunts of man. The song of the
hermit thrush. most often heard across
country lawns or In mountain woods, Is
without doubt the most exquisite. u1agi-
cal marvellous sound that issues from
any living being-not excepting the So
pranos of the Vatican Choir. the trill-
Ing OF the treefrogs on April twilights,
or the piercing sweetness Of the white
throat's melody.

Everyday Law Cases
Mdy Good Title to Land Be
Acquired BY "Estoppel?"
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Albert Jones' farm descended to his
two sons, John and Frank. who sur
vived him. The two sons, arranged 1or
one of them, John, to sell the farm:
The purchaser took deed from John
Jones, who represented that he was the
only heir of Albert Jones. Frank was
present at the time Of the transaction,
but remained silent. John then left
for parts unknown. A few months later,
after the purchaser had improved the
farm. Frank appeared on the scene and
proved that he was an heir OF Albert
Jones and was, therefore, entitled to a
half interest in the farm.
When the purchaser refused to recog-
nize Franks claim, Frank brought suit
to eject him. At the trial >the pur-
chaser showed that Frank had known
about the transaction and had remained
silent. Frank admitted this, and con-
tended that mere silence on his part
was inadequate to pass title to his
interest In the land, and that the
burden was on the purchaser to ascer-
tain who the real owners were.
The court, however. dismissed Frank s
case and held the purchasers title good
explaining:
"It is q well settled rule of law that
II the owner Of property stands by and
allows another to sell 1t, as his own
to bona fide purchaser, without OBJ
lection and without giving notice OF his
claim thereto, he will be held to have
consented to, and sanctioned, the sale
and will not afterward be permitted to
claim such property Of the purchaser
This is a sound principle. founded upon
the plainest dictates of fair dealings
and common honesty"

Answer--(l) The condition Of your
nails cannot be remedied by external
treatments unless the trouble is
clearly due to some external cause,
such as the use of strong chemicals
In your work or constant use Of strong
soaps. You should have a thorough
physical examination by physician TO

it delivered. He is not rushed now
he will be later.
Maybe you are having an afternoon
party when the noise of coal being
shot into the cellar wouldn't add
much to the occasion. Your local
Anthracite coal dealer will be glad
to suit your own convenience. He
will deliver your coal at exactly the
time you want it.
He can do that now. He couldn't
possibly do it in the rush of the

Then. too, you will get better coal
now because it comes to you in the
