from persons marrying who are born
under the same zodiacal sign. They
get along well for a time, but soon
bore each other because they have
mistaken a temporary sympathy for
real Jove. Their ultimate discontent
results from a life of monotony.
•‘Not that there is any sign that has

faults, hut two persons contemplating
matrimony can find out If their re
spective planetary influences are like

fully.
••Women horn under Virgo, ruling
from August 111 to September 21,
should choose a mate cautiously. They
ore so critical, pin ing undue .gm-
phasls on snflttl matters.
••The Virgo woman is easily annoy

So she should marry a man who good
naturedly Ignores these things.

"Few women are careless about
their appearance with their suitors,

their husbands, little realising how

Is such a factor In love."
Clothes will help a woman hold a
husband as well ns help her get one,
Mrs. Winch believes.
"Tho sensible woman takes clothes
seriously morning, noon and night,"
she says. "She studies her.figure and
wears garments that reveal Its best
points. She plays up to the color of
her eyes, she finphaslxes her piquancy
her stateliness or her greatest
