) HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4

This is rather an uncertain day
in planetary direction. Adverse
aspects are active. It is favor
able date for making plans and
for taking stock Of what has been
accomplished.
Heart and Home: This is a
promising day for constructive
work in home or office. II 10
time to get rid of all that Is I'M
necessary in the new year. The
stars which stimulate radiance OF
things no longer useful have in
spired the government campaigns
for gathering whatever is super
fluous. The year 1913 should be
started without encumbrance.
wise men and women will beware
of retaining handicaps.
Business Affairs: Stock-taking
at the close of this year will show
many surprising conditions that
presage amazing changes In the
newt few months. Those with
foresight will find in electronics
and other new developments OF
modern science opportunities for
beginnings along novel lines that
are commercially promising. Man
ufacturers will turn attention to
svnthetics more astonishing In
origin than the compositions they
replace.
National Issues: Unity of pur-
nose will be more and more re-
yeaIed among economic heads IN
washington but despite snti-in-
fation laws there viii be criticism
regarding the rising cost OF Nv
ing. Those who find fault with
war conditions should debate their
own ideas Of retaining all Injuries
and comforts at old-time costs.
Men and women who go on hv-
ing as usual. spending lavishly
and existing lazily are among the
nations enemies. Seifishness ana
greed are two human faults That
have contributed most 70 world
difficulties.
international Affairs: In our

A conservative estimate Ii that
one million four hundred thousand
have been killed either by public
