Benefic aspects rule today
which may be exceedingly event
ful in conflicts on land and sea.
Labor is under a favorable rule
OF the stars.
Heart and Home: Women are
subject to stimulating and for
tunate planetary influences to-
day which should be favorable
for mental effort and wise de-
eisions The stars encourage
development in novel fields of
activity. Girls will be indicted
into many branches of public
service Under this sway care
to avoid deception should be ex-
ercised. Danger in employing
persons more interested In ad-
venture than in serious work is
indicated for women in execu-
tive positions under the govern
ment.
Business Affairs: As prosper
ity prevails there will be a rise
in the cost of living which will
cause anxiety among persons OF
average means. for taxes are to
be heavy burden. Corporations
and millionaires will contribute
vast sums TO the federal govern
ment as the cost of defense
preparations and the mainten-
ance of thousands OF men IN
training camps increases. Cities
will be centers OF unusual bush
ness activity and rentals will be
high, despite efforts to keep
them at lower levels.
International Affairs: Both
Mars and Neptune today pre-
sage conflict which may be in
tense in midsummer. The stars
indicate an awakening in the
United States to the potentiali-
ties Of world war in its effect
upon the Americas. According
to astrologers. isolation and neu-
