SATURDAY, JULY 30
DORN today, you have a fine, all-around
character and should be successful in your.. to work. You are artistic and literary; yet' have an excellent business sense and can strike n good bargain. Highly adaptable you can get along with many varying types of people and this adds greatly to your success potential.
Guard against too much restlessness. You want change of seeng and pace all the time and unless you can get it you are apt to get bored, moody and even depressed... Fortunately, how- ever, you havo a keen sense of humour and a quick, witty tongue. You are a gifted, conver- rationalist and could probably Iecture well if you tried,
You are very positive in your ideas and once you have made up your mind to do some- When thing, your determination is steadfast.
you have undertaken a job you will finish it— somehow. Learn to be very particular about dotalis so that the job is always done as should be.
You women, especially, are homeloving, affectionate and even ardent in your devotions. It is likely there will be some "one person" in your life who can bring you complète happi- neas. Being highly intuitive, you often
sense
a thing before it actually happens. Learn to pay strict attention to your premonitions and you will rarely, if ever, go wrong. Since your family ties are strong you should have a happy and content home life.
To find what the stars have in store for tomorrow, select your birthday slar and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birth- day star be your daily guide.
SUNDAY, JULY 31 -
PORN today, you have rather complex
personality. You are real Idealist and nothing ever seems to reach the perfection which you set up before you as your objective. Always looking for the best in everyone and everything, you are apt to get very disillusioned if things do not work out as you plan them. When I comes to getting what you want, you have n lot of will and determination.
Yet, you dislike the placidity which comes from being a conservative soul who sticks to something no matter how dull it is. You must have change and variety to live happily. Very fond of travel, you will probably visit many, of the far places of the, earth during your life- time.
Your Intuitions are exceptionally keen. On the other hand, you would never admit that
