As business promises to be greatly stimulated through the autumn months this day should be fortu- nate for plans and decisions that relate to constructive measures. + Women today are well directed by the stars. In politics they are to be prominent and helpful, but they| . may clash with men who are party leaders. This is an auspicious wedding day. [ Marriages on this date should bring to women the responsibilities that they most covet including the es- tablishment of artistic homes.
