MOTHER FIGHTS FOR RETURN OF DOORSTEP BABY Denies She Abandoned Child Adopted by Bachelor at Chicago. ftp 1 nit+4 pt*•• CHICAGO. April 29 —The widely publicized waif adopted by assistant I city prosecutor Samuel Epstein, a \ bachelor. Isn't a waif at all. said : Its mother in a suit filed for its return. Mrs. Agnes McConnell of Detroit asked for a writ of habeas corpus l to obtain the baby girl, which Epstein found on his doorstep several months ago. 'Tve named her Joan.’’ said Epstein. "and I've grown to love her. but if this Mrs. McConnell really is .loan's mother, then I shall not oppose her suit.” Clubs Opposed Adoption Epstein had his own difficulties adopting the child over the protests of various women's clubs, which insisted that a mere bachelor knew nothing about the intricacies of safety pins and orange juice schedules. Epstein finally proved to the satisfaction of the court that no better "mother” than himself could be found for the baby. Mrs. McConnell said, through her attorneys, that the baby was hers and that she wanted it. Judge Thomas J. Lynch issued the writ. -? hich will force Epstein and Baby Joan to appear in court today to show cause why they should not be separated. Abandonment Denied Attorney Joseph A. Kolb, representing Mrs. McConnell, said that Joan had not been abandoned. When Mrs. McConnell obtained a position in Detroit, he explained, she left Joan here with a Negro nurse. Then when the nurse was absent from her home, the latter’s landlady took the child and abandoned it, apparently in a dispute over payment of rent. MILLIONS OF FISH TO BE PUT IN STREAMS Pereh.

BY MARGUERITE CARTER ACCORDING to the ancient who practiced astrology, Sunday is ruled by the Sun. Monday by the Mcon, Tuesday by Tuisco or Mars. Wednesday by Woden or Mercury, Thursday by Thor, or Jupiter, Friday by Venus, and Saturday by Saturn. Apparently in the operation of the’ universe, numbers have a considerable significance, and things of every nature move in cycles. We often have heard cycles of time referred to, and it has a greater significance than appears on the surface. according to the ancients. As with the days which are significant in their names—of the planets from which they derived them, there is a deeper significance in the progression of life. SUnday, according to those ancient sages, corresponds to the beginning of life, while Saturday, the last day of the week, corresponds to its closing period. The intervening days apply and correspond to its progression. The reason for this, from an astrological standpoint, is that the Sun. being the center of our solar system, is first of importance to the entire universe as well as in size and it has most to do with the opening period of human life. a a a SEVEN is. of course, considered an occult number, having a particular significance. There are. of course, seven days in the week, and the number recurs in ay nature. Life revolves in cycles of severt and a period of seven times seven constitutes the first halfcentury of life. The first seven years represent the Sunday's, or first, period of life. This is, of course, a time of weakness and growth. Under parental protection, the child reaches the age of reason in this period. The second of the seven divisions, consisting of the period from 7 to 14 years, represents Monday. During its progression there is the beginning of mental growth and intellectual activity. The third period is representative of Tuesday, and it covers the span from the 14 to the 21st year, which is. of course, the period of passing from childhood to the adult stage. The 21st to the 28th year is the Wednesday cycle, during which the individual is engaged actively in the struggle of existence and the start of accomplishment. a a a THE fifth cycle, represented by Thursday, vs that period which lies between the twenty-eighth and the thirty-fifth years. During that time, responsibilities, burdens and activities in general reach their maximum. The thirty-fifth to the fortysecond year, representing the Friday cycle, brings about some effect from the results of misfortune, adversity and struggle. The seventh cycle, or that which represents Saturday, the period from the forty-second to the fortyninth year, is the period during which reverses, disappointments and hardships often overtake the individual. When man reaches the forty-

ninth milestone he should be able to lay aside business cares and worries, even though he does not choose to do so. He would, in fact, be better off if he devoted the remaining years to the spiritual things of earth. When the cycle of seven times seven has been completed, the second revolution begins and the stages of human progress in that second cycle are apparent to a close observer. a a a IT will be seen that the first twenty-one years of life constitute a natural period of growth, which is encouraging to progress. The fourteen following years are a time of labor and advancement against difficulties and obstacles. The cycle which then begins at 42 is one of decline and danger. ■ so that one should be particularly , careful and prudent in one’s sixth cycle—assuming no important responsibilities or entering things in- ! volving great risk in the forty-first j year. All things are the result of a natural law. Folks should not wait until late in life to marry or to form attachments. That should be done in a more optimistic period, when life is in the bud. Later attachments are not formed as readily. nor are they usually as deep. People whose birthday falls today are natural conquerors. That, j of course, is particularly true of you if you are a man. Asa rule, you are apt to have your own way and accomplish your desires at all hazards. You can adapt yourself readily to your surroundings and are very likely to become a leader because of your mental' and physical endurance. You have qualities which would make you a good politician and you also have fine intuitions in everything that pertains to business. You are. however, somewhat likely to carry things to extremes. If you are a woman, you probably are very earnest in anything to which you turn your attention. If your mind turns in that direction you would make * very strong church member. a a a E. p. R—lt Is doubtful If any one ever achieves happiness bv pursuing entirely a selfish course. If vou are sure you are absolutely j justified in feeling as you do about your family, and equally certain vou have discharged your full obligation to them, then perhaps you might take the step you are contemplating. Your birth date indicates that you arc somewhat inclined to be impulsive. irritable and high strunß. however v It is quite possible that j you are. sometimes, unconsciously, difficult to agree with. Your wife probably is irritable, too. In fact, her physical condition and her natural tendencies would make her so to some degree. At any rate, be sure—very sure you don’t do something you always will regret. a a a V. S. C.—Your birthdate does not give any indication tha' you are fitted for the routine and detail of a desk job. If any one is apt to be dissatisfied in such a position, you are. You should Ik able to sell, although that requires experience. In my opinion, you will be more successful in an occupation that affflfds more variety. iCopynsht. IM2 1
