How swiftly, as an arrow from a strong bow, 1910 has flown! Father Timo, old and gray, his beard white from the Winter snows, stands upon the bat tlement of the world, bidding adieu to the Old Year with its past joys and sorrows, and ushers in the New Year with confidence and hope. "Out from the turret pealed the sudden New Year's bells, Like the distant songs of Angels in the fields of Asphodels; And chubby childhood went spark ling to his aged father's side, And the New Year kissed tho Old Year, and the Old Year gently died." Welcome to January. A death like stillness, save an occasional sob from the wintry winds that now and then flit mournfully over white, de serted fields and frozen stretches of river feeble tear-born gusts that expire, almost as suddenly as born, in the icy fret-work on the hedges and the gaunt branches of tho shiv ering trees. Is not this the picture that Instantly springs before the mind's eye at the bare mention of, January; when the poor, naked trees seem glad to hide their shame in the snow that weighs down their drooping branches; when the weak, wan sun scarce lifts himself at ut most noon above tho horizon, and all too soon, dlgusted with the chill white world that meets his gaze, passes from us to more genial climes, leaving behind him long, dark, cheerless nights. Is not the Wolf month, of all months in the year, the most dismal? What, then, could Numa Pompiiius havo been thinking about when the flat wont forth from his royal Hps that the birth of the year was no longer to date from the beginning of Spring, but from the depth of Winter. The New Year opens up with a very unusual position, and strong aspects of the planets. As tho sun crosses the line into Capricorn, Mer cury will be tho first planet to form an aspect; therefore, there will bo many sudden "spurts" of business caused by tho "Messenger of the Gods." Uranus Is separating from an aspect of Neptune. Earth passes between Neptune and the sun before the middle of the month, and Ura nus Is in conjunction with Old Moth er Earth and the sun on the 16th.. Tho close aspect of Jupiter, the Fi nancial planet, and Mars, the Red Warrior, shows great inharmony and discord between capital and labor in our own country. There will bo fourteen "low ebb" days during the month. Business will be unusually active off and on, but subject to sudden reverses, al though theso "breaks' will not last long. The health conditions aro favor able, except to those subject to weak stomachs and nervousness. In all probability January will bring many dangerous disturbances. See Storms and Signs Calendar. The storm periods of greatest activity will be on or about the 3rd, 14th, 21st, and 29th. The indications aro that the storms, especially during the last half of the month, will be diversified from tropical rain and thunder southward, to Intense bliz zards of sleet and snow northward. Tho strongest and best days for surgical operations will be Tuesday, the 3rd; Wednesday, the 4th; Thurs day, tho 5th; Saturday, the 28th, and Tuesday, the 31st. Avoid hav ing an operation performed In the sign under which you were born. Do you know in what sign you wore born? The best days to transplant and set trees, shrubs and cuttings will be Friday, tho 13th, and Saturday a. m., tho 14 th. Next best days Will be Thursday, tho 5th; Monday, tho 9th; Saturday, tho 21st, and Tuesday, the U. C. COLES, Editor Storms and Signs. UNION MEETINGS NEXT WEEK AT UAPTIST OHURCJI. LOOKOUT.
