exercise. We also believe that scant, tight-fitting clothing or partial dishabille are not conducive to the highest morality nor the purest, most beautiful sentimentality. Angels are not represented attired thus, and the pictures which are associated with the pure and holy life of Christ show the beautiful, artistic, flowing robes of the Jewish and Roman countries.

We recollect hearing a talented elocutionist recite a story from the life of Christ. The selection was well rendered, and she was an attractive looking young lady, but her costume appeared entirely out of place; it might have been suitable for a dance hall. The neck was low, sleeves about three inches in length, waist close fitting, skirt close fitting, about two yards in width, and scarcely reaching the shoetops. There seemed to be something so utterly incongruous about the situation, that the effect produced was very bad. The Sun conjunction governs the limbs above the ankles as coming opposite the heart. This conjunction runs very strong at the present time, and the tendency seems to be to show up that part of the anatomy at any cost. Even men turn their trousers at the bottom and pull them up when they sit down, to exhibit their fancy hosiery. The feet should be allowed all possible freedom as they stand opposite to the stomach, and are consequently intimately connected with this organ. Sandal effects would be very desirable, particularly in warm climates. Much might be said regarding the present detestable skirt worn by women, but we must remember that many women wear it under protest. Many find it almost a necessity to go to the ready made. clothing store and buy what they require. When they do, they must either wear a regulation narrow skirt, or hunt all over town for goods to match, and take it to a dressmaker, paying almost a double price

for their purchase. Most women wear them as they buy them, but many wear them under protest, and many would not wear them if they could see themselves as others see them. Coming down to facts, the manufacturers design all the styles, and are exploiting the health, decency and comfort of all womankind, for the sake of the immense profits which are made by them.

Remember, only about one-half the material is required that was used a few years ago when pleated skirts were worn, and you have to pay the same price for a suit. Three yards of material at $2.00 per yard gives them a premium of $6.00 on a suit. Why not make the skirts narrow and short, the sleeves short, and the neck low? It all helps to swell the coffers of the manufacturers and to create millionaires, a commodity which is becoming every day more plentiful in this money cursed earth. Don't forget when you are crushing your body into a suit that is too narrow, or too short, that you are doing this to help some poor millionaire along; doubtless he will be very grateful to you. We hear some nice people speak of Adam and Eve as being naked before the fall, even hinting that clothing and wickedness are counterparts. We have very little knowledge of the condition of Adam and Eve before the fall, but we know that God made coats of skin for them after the fall, and that should settle the matter of clothing with us. The best living persons are those who dress modestly. Lack of modesty in wearing apparel has always been associated with the doings of the underworld. The first step towards reforming these unfortunates should be to insist upon modest, inconspicuous wearing apparel. This is another instance of reaching the cause from the effect. Much has been said regarding a uniform for schools and colleges, and we believe that such a

course would be very beneficial to girl students and boys as well. Girls give far too much attention to their clothes, and boys give far too much attention to girls. If girls were all dressed alike, they would not attract so much attention, and they would not spend so much valuable time planning up some new thing in dress. Education, dress, and flirtation all come under the same sign, and if you want education to flourish, cut out the other two as far as possible. Any one of these detracts strongly from the others. Religion also comes under the same sign, and we believe dress detracts from religion. Ask any minister of the gospel who is the greatest saint in his Church, and he will almost invariably point to some plain unpretentious person who just puts on enough style to pass in a crowd. Those who dress elaborately are more liable to attend church for the purpose of showing themselves, than to attend it in a true devotional spirit. It would not be half so objectionable to dress elaborately at a theatre or a party. These occasions are in a manner, dress occasions, and dress does not detract from anything important connected with them. in church and school however dress should be neat and becoming, but not elaborate, a uniform costume preferable.

If women are to keep pace with men in intellectual development they must dress more sensibly. The average man spends not more than an hour a month on his clothing; he just drops into a clothing house or visits a tailor occasionally and there it ends. Compare this with the brain energy and time spent by women on their many elaborate costumes. We would not for one moment advocate the adoption of masculine dress by women; we see no reason why they might not have a few frills and furbelows; it is extravagance and craze for change to which we object.

Men get new ideas, and women get new clothes. If women are to assist in the reformation of the world, they must cut out a few of their extravagances in dress and social functions; as we have said before time and brain energy are frittered away on these things.

No. 14 was a successful saleslady, who went into a ladies suit department, and drew heavy sales with little or no previous experience. You will notice that the 1st. Sign, governing dress is good, and that Jupiter and the Sun stand on each side of her money sign. To be a good salesman, you should draw money strongly. What you draw for yourself you draw for your employer. Certainly the lady with this horoscope would not work cheaply; the more she drew the more she would want for herself. Through a bad

position of Venus, in the traveling sign her husband. died while traveling and she went to meet the body. He left a large sum through insurance and she gave up her position and went on a trip. Probably she would spend a lot of money before she settled down. All her bad planets are in the 3rd. and 4th. It is one thing to get money and another to keep it.

For Boots and Shoes, you should have a good 12th. Hosiery good 11th. and 12th., Underwear 10th., Gloves 9th., Jewelry 8th., Hats and suits 7th. In selecting Xmas presents for friends you usually buy something that falls under the sign in which the Moon stands in the person's horoscope. If it is in the 1st. Sign you would buy a book or something for the head and so on.
