There is all too little blue in the color scheme of our District wild flowers, and the gay chicory blossoms, everywhere in bloom this week, make up this deficiency. We have plenty of flowers that are called blue, but | usually they have more or less pur-| ple or violet in them, and a true-blue | Rower is genuinely remarkable. Chic- | ory, however, is really blue-—a soft, | gray blue—and its gay blossoms make one who sees them say, “Oh, look!"—even people who know them of old. Splendid garden flowers are indeed worthy of our admiration, but we owe a special debt to the common wayside weed which as_beautiful as chicory and vet has the hardihood to grow among the cinders of rail road embankments, on ash heaps and | such unlovely places.

Cancer. The planetary aspects of tomorrow denote more of an emotional urge than a practical tendency. They are rather complex, and while they do not counsel “letting up” in the prose cution of any carefully devised plan, they do not imply any assfired suc- cess. Under such conditions, and lacking assurance of achievement, it will be more politic, unless conditions compel a different attitude, not to at- tempt too much, but to be satisfied with the consclentious discharge of customary duties. The signs, on the other hand, combined with the emo- tional vibrations, indicate a _respon siveness to love, and this, if taken advantage of, should be productive of the realization of your heart's desire. Children born tomorrow will, re- gardless of sex, enjoy, during their edrly years, similar physical condi- tions: They will be normal in every way, and show every evidente of ro bustness and vigor. A boy will con tinue along and attain maturity with out any “setback.” A girl, howover will, during her later childhood, de- velop signs of weakness and constant ill health. This condition can only be overcome by care, proper diet and out- door exercise. In disposition and tem perament they wvill be rather self- willed, and show too little considera tion for the feelings of others. They will sense a wrong very quickly, and harbor resentment. They will always be difficult to understand, and hard to control. Is tomorrow your birthday? If so, you are too timorous and retiring for your own good. Every one, except your- self, realizes that you possess a high degree of natural ability, and one and all are surprised that you do not more successfully capitalize your inherent talents. You, while working faithfully and conscientiously for others, are afraid to trust your own efforts to do something for yourself. You apparent- ly would rather be a doorkeeper in the abode of another, than a prince in your own house. While blatant self-adver tising is to be decried, while vulgar and loud ostentation is to be criti- cized, there is no excuse for the\adop- tion of the other extreme, and exces- sive humility and exaggerated meek- ness will kill any chance of success You are naturally kind and sympa- thetic, and of a very loving and trust- | ful disposition. If a man, vou will be dominated by your wife. If a woman, vou will, in all honesty and not for occult purposes, be a clinging wife. Well date are: Benjamin F. de Costa, clergy man; Alvan G.

VERYBODY knows that clean, healthy teeth depend on healthy gums. If the gums are soft and spongy—if they bleed with brushing—if they are sore and sensitive—it means that sooner or later gum infections will begin, and your teeth will loosen and fall out. For years prominent dentists have recommended salt and water as the greatest aid to firm, healthy gums. Salt has no equal as a gum-hardener, they say—if it is used daily in the proper scientific way! Bleachodent Paste—the first Salt Dentifrice— makes this an easy matter. Its scientific Salt solu tion, in combination with other safe gum-hardening ingredients, quickly acts to make soft gums wonder- fully hard, strong and healthy. Even after the first few days’ use, really surprising results are often seen in harder, firmer, healthy-pink gums. ;i : 3 Salt also has a mild, safe, bleaching effect.
