Great activity in British markets and an influx of American capital and the early autumn. Persons whose birthdays it is have the augury of a year of fairly good luck but perils loom in busi- ness. It is wise to be careful in speech, Children born in this day prob- ably will be scrupulous in all things bright of mind and persistent in carying out plans effecting other persons. | Elisha G. Otis, elevator inventor, was born on this day, 1811, Others the Who have celebrated it as a birth- | day include Stanley Baldwin, Brit- ish statesman, 1867; Samuel M Shortridge, former United States enator, 1861. SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 1935 Benefic aspects appear to rule today, according to astrology. The stars encourage religious observanc- es, cially those that unite many organizations. | The configuration is favorable {i0 reform movements and seem to pre:age sweeping changes in the management of public affairsy es- | pecially those affecting institufion: of various sorts. Scandals in 're- gard to misuse of funds are fore- told. | Tais is a fortunate rule of the | stars for writings, whether they are sermons or letters. It should be | helpful to judges and officials who | must study important papers. | This is read as a lucky day for Journeys. Again the scers prophesy for the next few weeks unprece- |dented travel on land and sea as well as in the air. It is a good day for seeking as- sociation with persons of high place. The President of the United States, governors of states and others who wield authority are under a help- ful rule of the planets today. But much secret plotting and careful intrigue are prognosticated. Under this direction of the stars | human nature may be envious and | self-centered, inclined to demand much and to give little. Warning is repeated that character should be safeguarded . Future problems growing out of unemployment and the dole are to be of very grave concern, it is prophesied. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of good busi- ness, general prosperity and much happiness. Children born on this day prob- ably will be sensitive and exceed- ingly intelligent. Subjects of this sign usually possess many. friends and are endowed with unusual per- sonalities. Percy Bysshe Shelley, poet, was born on this day 1792. Oliver P. Morton, statesman, also celebrated it as a birthday, 1823.
