SATURDAY, MARCH 5
PORN today, you will find that the months of May and June appear to be your best working periods. Plan to start new projects at that time and you will find that you make excellent progress. You have self-reliance as well as self-confidence and once you have set your eyes on a certain objective, you persevere until you reach it. Yet, withull, you are gay, seemingly happy- go-lucky on the surface and one with whom everyone finds It easy to make friends. It is often members of your wide circle of contacts who are able to help you advance toward your goal,
Kindly and sympathetic, you frequently lend an ear to some- one in distress and give help. You men, especially, are easy marks for a sad story, especially if the teller of the tale is of the opposite sex, pretty and young? You are an incurable romantic on this score and need think twice before you select a marriage partner or you may live to regret you didn't look a longer time before you leapt into marriage! Someone born under Leo, Virgo or Libra will probably make the best mate for you, as your temperaments should harmonise,
Among those born on this date are: Howard Pyle, artist; Roger II. King of Stelly; Frederick S. Cozzens, humorist; Arthur Poole, composer: and Wills Gaylord Clark, poet.

PORN today, you are exceptionally perceptive, have clear vision and fine judgment. You have real gift for tho creative arts and will be happlest if your career is in the arts or professions, rather then in business or france.
Although you men are quite practical, self-confident and are capable of managing your affairs so that you generally make a good proat, you are not basically materialistic in your point of view. You men, especially believe in good, common sense, and logic two things which the true artistle temperament often lacks.'
You women, on the other hand, are less practical and are much more willing to make use of your intuition which you conceive as being the sole source of artistic inspiration.
Yet, you are not one to overlook the necessity for a practical ap- proach to security. You are the type who will inevitably make what is called 'n "gooll marriage. You'rè practical enough for that!
Both of you men and woman, bowever, have the artistle temperament and when it comes to selecting a marriage partner, you must be very careful. A clash of temperaments could lead to much unhappiness and, eventually, a definite need for a change. Yet it would be almost impossible for you to make such a change with a clear conscience due to your innate loyalty. So, look carefully before you leap into matrimony: Much of your success and happiness in life will depend upon your choice of a mate.
Among those, born on this date are: Michelangelo, painter: Elizabeth Barrett Browning, poet, Lilly Langtry, actress; Ring. Lariner, bumbrist; General P. H. Sheridan; and Halycon Skinner, inventor,
