YOUR BIRTHDAY ·

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19
today, you have high Bambitions and the energy to attain them. You are willing to work hard for what you get and don't expect to be handed anything on a silver platier. You know that in the long run a man's own, personal efforts are what count for the most.
Extremely attractive to the members of the opposite sex, you have a magnetism that even
you, youself, do not always quito
understand
You are generous and kindly to, all, and there are time when you will neglect your own interests to help others. Make sure that those who are unworthy do not impose upon your good nature. This advice is especially important when it comes to selecting your life partner. Don't confuse tem- porary infatuation with true love For you, love at first sight could happen, but it might be well for you to take a long, second look before you wed.
