PORN today, you have a stadious, careful and considerate nature. You always think before you act, and then when you are ready to move ahead, you are vigorous and energetic in carrying -out your objective. You are not the typo to talk about your plans before you are ready to put them into operation. You con- ilder, that actions speak much more loudly thân words.

When you work, you work at a high plich—and when you play, you play at top speed. You seem to be able to revitalise your energies by changing pace and seldom, if over, get, trou. You uppene to have boundless energy,

Your emotions are near the surface, and since your love of nature is strong, you will be happiest if you wed early and have a large, adoring family. Your social life is likely to revolve around your own home.
