TODAY'S HOROSCOPE

A sensitive and somewhat weak
disposition is here indicated. but
the mind is good. and there is but
little danger of failure or a mis-
spent life. This nature is seldom
by ordinary people, and
hence you may not be generally
popular, though possessing good
friends and often attaining success.
