Tomorrow's planetary aspects are very favorable and continue so until the early part of the evening, when they abruptly’ change and become ad- verse. The day presents an unequaled | opportunity for putting into execu- | tion those plans that have had careful | deliberation and thought, and uiti- mate success for any enterprise launched under such conditions is as- sured. It is also an auspicious occa- slon for travel. Speculation should be avolded, and no hazardous risks should be taken. The evening promises evi- dences of general grouchiness, pro- voked by excessive self-dissatisfaction. ‘This attitude can best be circumvent- | ed by association with congental com- | panions or by light reading. | “Children born tomorrow will, dur- ing infancy, revel in exuberant health.

Betty Ames nurses James Cornell | through pneumonia and they fall in love. Dr. Amos Craig is also in with her and is hurt at the Jim is the type of man who is always talking about what he will do when he makes his “mil- lion,” but although he seems to have plenty of money, he is in no hurry to get married. At his request, Betty gives up all night cases 1hich, of course, curtails her income. In spite of " the fact Jimmy exrpects her to be well dressed on every occasion. At a dance, Dr. Craig shows his love for her openly and Kisses her in the taxi on the way home. Naturally, Betty {s furious, particularly as his love for her | seems more unselfish than Jimmy’s. Jimmy keeps on postponing the time for their marriage, but at last he sets a tentative date, and Betty begins to buy her trousseaw. Jim does not realize tha the late hours Betty Is keeping, together with her cases and the constant emotional strain, are wearing her out. And then he comes to her with the news that instead of being married 'in June, he is going adbroad. A gay crowd goes to the steamer to see him off. CHAPTER XLIII. Jimmy sailed the first week in June, and after the first pangs of parting Betty began to set her heart on Sep- tember and his return. Confident that he would not disappoint her again, she tried not to be unhappy about his safling. She reasoned with herself it was all for the best. Didn't Jimmy al- ways know best? Look at the way he had come through his financial troubles last Thanksgiving! She remembered the sick feeling that had heen hers when he had taken her engagement ring to use as security. And yet he had given it back to her at Christmas time with her diamond wrist watch. He was clever, there was no gainsaying that | |fact. ' Other people beside herself | thought so, too. Look at the way Mr. Arrowsmith trusted ani admired him. | Jimmy was a wonderful man. | It was possible for her to go back | to night cases now that she no longer had Jimmy in her life, and she took | whatever was offered her, glad if her . | hours were filled to capucity so that ! ! she hadn't much time for thinking. But strangely enough she found it dif ficult to concentrate on her work. She was nervous, easily irritated and it | worried her. | AL St. Martin's, where she had many | of her cases, £he felt uncomfortable now. She could no longer maint that feeling of importance that had | set her apart from the other nurses ‘ Perhaps this was, in large part, due to the fact that she felt that they tn ke yabout her behind her back, perhap: | not unkindly, but certainly pityingly { She could not bear the thought of any jof them pitving her. Who was she to need their pity with Jimmy in her | life and their marriagegonly two | months away | One night just as she was ahout to | g0 into the diet kitchen at St. Mar- | i tin's she heard her name mentioned. | Ordinarily she wouldn't dropped, but she was curious to know | f the nurses really did talk about her | nd involuntarily she paused. | Miss Abbott was talking to one of | the probationers while she squeezed | orange julce and poured it through a | sieve. Neither girl had heard Betty's | footsteps and were quite unaware of lher presence. Yes, it was' quite romantic at | st,” Miss Abbott was saying. “She d him through pneumonia and ! v fell in love. That was a year | ago last February. Miss Anderson | was night nurse on the case and saw | quite a lot of wht went on, she told us all ahout e Fthing." “You said it @as romantic, have eaves. | ven tured the probationer, “why fisn’t it romantic now? He must be wild about her to give her such gorgeous things. It isn’t often that a nurse has the luck to hav man with money fall in love with her.” “I know, but why doesn’t he marry | her if he's so wild about her? You’d think that with his money, to see her work. You nursing 1s; it's no sinecure, believe me. I don’t see how she's stood it all this time with the hours she keeps. Believe me, I'd rather marry a man without a cent if he were willing to make a home for me and take care of me. All this man wants to do is to see her dressed up and take her out to parties and night clubs. Miss An- derson calls her the ‘million-dollar wife,” because this Jimmy Cornell evi- dently doesn’t intend to marry her until he’s made.a milllon.” ‘With burning cheeks, Betty stole away from the door and crept noise- lessly down the corridor. So this was what the girls thought of her, and were saying about her! How mean, how terribly mean and catty. And yet, and yet—wasn't there some truth in what Miss Abbott had said? It was true that she and Jimmy had been engaged nearly two vears. She hadn't thought of it in actual time before and It rather shocked her. But what of i{t? Lots of girls were engaged as long as that. They talked about her because they were jealous and that was natural. As that little probationer had said it wasn’t often that a nurse had such luck. And yet, although she argued with herself, she couldn’t forget w she had overheard. It made her conscious with the nurses vaguely terrified of the future, (Copyright. 1926.) CHILDREN NEED SPECIAL CARE Selection of food most important Most children love cereals. And cereals are good for them. Not only because of the wholesomeness of the grains themselves—but because eating cereals also means eating more milk. ‘These cool mornings, children should have a hot cereal. Kellogg’s New Oata is_especially recommended for them. New Oata brings them even more than oatmeal. It is a better ‘balanced food. New Oata is 2 blend of both oats and whole wheat, including the bran. It combines the wonderful health-and- | strength-building elements of both. With a new flavor. A delicious new taste and a new light texture that is a wonderful improvement over the soggy, gluey body of ordinary oatmeal. A nourishing, unusually delicious food for little children and folks who | never grow old. It is made in Battle Creek—home of Kellogg s Corn Flakes, Pep and ALL-BRAN. New Oata fits into the modern breakfast. So easy and simple to pre- pare. Just boil it three minutes. Ask for Kellogg’s New Oata. 9 he'd hate | know what | Clues to Character BY J. 0. ABERNETHY. Harsh Characters. A good judge of character can sit in a dark room and hear a person talk and estimate accurately the char- acter and the disposition as well as the brain power of the subject. Where the brain system dominates, the voice is apt to be weak, vet de- cided, somewhat sharp, clear and not | energetic, except under excitement, ! when it becomes sharp and shrill. As a rule, the clearer the voice, | the clearer the mind; the sweeter the | voice, the more affectionate its | possessor. Sensitiveness is indicated by the voice, and exhibited by rather mild and slow way of speak- ing. Some voices are too sweet to |be wholesome. Such volces are proofs of insincerity, deceit or | secretivenes | Rough, harsh voices indicate that the person Is of a strong, harsh char- |7 |acter. Affected speech reveals the | shallow or conceited character. In ja |fact, all affectations are assumed to cover defects. (Copyright. 1926.) L | er Lessons in English BY .
