you are a subscriber to The Tribune,
To Paid-Up Subscribers
The Tribune places only one restriction on this offer. A subscriber's subscription must be

receive the two magazines each month for one year.
To Non-Subscribers
You can avail yourself of this offer by simply ordering The Tribune, to be paid for at the
regular rate of 50 cents per month. Ycu can then secure the two magazines by paying $1.25.
To Subscribers Who Wish
To Pay for The Tribune in Advance
You can save a lot of money by paying for The Tribune In advance, If you have
been paying by the month or at the end of the year, and wjsh to pay for The Tribune a year in ad
vance, you can get The Tribune, Tho Cosmopolitan and the Woman's Homo Companion, each for
one year, for $6,25, just 25 cents more than you have been paying for The Tribune alone.
To Contestants in The Tribune's Educational Contest
You should explain this liberal offer to those you ask to subscribe for The Tribune, If they
will pay you $1.25 In addition to the price of The Tribune they will receive these two magazines
one year, Sample copies of the magazines will be furnished you free, Here are the prices, where
The Tribune subscription Is p3id In advance ;

tarlus, "House of Enemies," opposed by
Gemini, "House of Sickness," she will
undoubtedly receive great affliction, for
Sagittarius Is a sign that brings us no
earthly good except when compelled to
do so by the Moon and certain planets.
By looking at the planetary diagram In
Storms and Signs you will notice that
Mars the old red warrior is in sign
Taurus, which makes men headstrong,
willful, determined and fearless. Kx
citement will run high. Following the
great conjunction and oppositions of
the planets, this month earthquakes will
be liable to occur. If not, then watch
out for cyclones and tornadoes that will
come In all their fury.
A storm period, the last of May, in
cludes the first few days of June. Tho
moon being new and passing its perigee
on the Oth and 6th, the probabilities are
that It will remain generally warm,
with threatening conditions. One of the
most notable storm periods of the
month will occur between tho 11th and
18th, 20th and 25th. (See Storms and
Signs calendar.) Extreme heat waves
will pass over the country, followed by
frost in many sections. There will be
a great deal of sickness this month,
also destructive conflagrations. The
stock markets will be very treacherous,
business in general will be spasmodic;
In fact, the month will bring many sud
den and unlooked for events In many
sections.
BIRTH HISTORY.
A male child born this month, Jun'e,
will bo small of stature and very fond
of women and children. He will read
much, be u great observer and look well
into the deeds of men. He will be Im
petuous, will marry early and bo frivol
ous. In dimensions and in shape of na
ture he will bo a gracious person. Free
from gross passion, or of mirth or
anger; constant in spirit swerving with
the blood; garnished and decked in
modest compliment; not working with
tho eye without tho car, and but within
purged judgment, trusting neither. He
will sit among men like a descended
god; he will be possessed with u kind
of lionor that will set him off, more
than a mortal seeming. He will be as
full of valor us of kindness nnd princely
in both. Many children will bless his
matrimonial state. He will live short
and well.
A female child born this month, June,
will bo nighty and a high liver, but will
sober down ut forty. She will marry
very young and be tho mother of sev
eral children, who will bo full of life
and ambition, She will dwell so te
curely on the excellency of her honor
that the folly of any depraved soul will
not dare present itself; she will be too
bright to bo looked against. She will
be to herself a friend nnd a friend to
all her friends. She will be a "friend in
need" and a friend Indeed.
CORN PLANTING.
Saturday, tho 7th, will be the best day

not become clogged, But, If greaso
does not collect, and hits of other mat

in It, the exhaust pump Is a present
help In time of trouble, and often la all
