BurdF, Miller ,
Explains Horoscope
Telling of Astrology
Burd F. Miller gave the first of a series
of lectures on "Astrology" at Theo
sophlcsl hall Sunday evening. In which
ha demonstrated by charts the msnner of
erecting the horoscope, and showed how,
according to astrologers, all thlnga in the
physical world bear a certain relstlon to implement business in the midwest be
the stars, the run and moon, and that ! comes a vaster and vaster enterprise.
when these planets are in certain posi- The main floor Is entirely devoted to
tlons in the heavens there are always
happenings of a certain character in the
places in the world where the angles fall.
He asserted that there were few astrolo
gers who really understood the princi
ples of planetary bodies, and that they
were not to be telied upon, simply mak
ing what money they could through th
credulity of men.
That most horoscopes were worthless
and that the whole science of astrology
rested upon the understanding of the , ,how. The sessions will be held on ths
esoteric, a well as the exoteric side, and
few caa understand the deeper truths
underlying it, Mr. Miller asserted. He
aid, however, that to the scientific as
trologer, when he had the date, place and
hour of birth of an individual, he could
giva tha history et that Individual from
the cradle to the grave, show all the
'events of his Ilf 9 and know his Inner na
ture better than the man himself.
This, Mr. Miller remarked, he had
proven many times, and gave some ex-1
amples to substantiate his claim. He said
, that the ' National Astrological society
- was endeavoring-to drive out of practice
all of the cheap, ignorant, so-called as-
trologera and to bring the science again
Into general use n the e very-day life of
' all nations. .

useful a the other public utilities you depend on to much
and at indispensable Perhaps you tay that you have
got along without it for a long time. That is jut what
your grandfather probably said about the telephone.
Can you afford to do without it any longer ? Who would
want to do without running water or telephone service
after once having them, even if hie home had been
without them for year before
Practical, everyday people who have used the Bri
tannic tay:
" How did M ever gt olonf rvilkmd the nrtr
Britannical" Or they call it TA tnosl
utrfnl (Mint that ever mim ! tht houu."
A Many-Sided Service
'The Brftanntcq differs from other utilities in being
useful and neceaaary tn more wa'ya than any other one
thing you can have la the house. It given you the
benefit of the beat expert nchrice in every field and on
every subject.
The britannlca service make you more efficient.
It help yon do your own work quicker and better it is
concentrated etorcd-op energy, a atofw-house of live,
valuable information, a true "power house." Because
It supplies you with the mafia of avving time, trouble
and energy.
The Britannlca pute at yowr Wvtew ewpert advice
as the telephone connect you with your physician.
You need it for the unforeen ttnergency as well at for
the countless everyday thingaShat you know you want
help on. AH the difficulties that can present themselves
to you are problems other people have had to meet.
Men and women the world over have worked, each of
them for years, some of them their whole lives, to solve
these problems. Their experieno b bt the Britannic
for you to profit by. They are at your call when you
have the Britannlca. For $i down and to cent a day
for a few months you may own this wonderful service.
It la as if for that small nun you could rail by telephone
the best authority or expert in the world to answer any
question that came up, to give you advice on any sub
ject you wanted help oof
Do You Want Help In Your
Day's Work?
You ran get it in the Britannic Just aa many other
people have done. For irmance, a North Carolina
cotton broker said that the article on Cotton was' worth
the price of the whole set. A New York lawyer got
just the information be needed in a lawsuit about iron
and ateel. He couldn't find it anywhere else or gt it
from his client who manufactured car-couplers. A
manufacturer of flavoring extracts learned from the
Britannica enough about his own business to save the.
cost of the whole set.
( nd rurymu tit sssaneaW in IM$ mpat pi a
Iftt tkn hmtt si mruk u yea wsl 3r4-mmf).
Do You Want Help at Home?
Planning a bouse or remodeling one, studying decora
tion or ventilation, you get expert advice and valuable
suggestions from the Britannica. Equally useful it
what you will get from this same wonderful, all-around
service on the care of babies and children, food, diet,
cookery, rules for health, directions for first aid to the
injured, ttudy aid and supplementary reading for school
boyt and girls and for young men and women in college.
Aa owner of the BrlUnnirs, aho wss bora in Denmark, says: "In
my country instead of 'enryclopaedis' s tay 'femiljrbok,' that is
'family book.' 1h Britannks Is as idral 'family book.' "
Improvements in Service
Other utilities have been improved, cheapened and
made more convenient by long and gradual processes,
to that we hardl notice the change.
The service of the Britannica has been improved
wonderfully fast in the last few years. The- new
eleventh edition with, more in it and of better quality
hat been sold right along at a lower price than previous
editions, and quality and quantity considered, at a
lower price than any other encyclopaedia. Now the
jmore convenient and compact "Handy Volume"
issue of the new edition is offered for 64 less than the

big-volume form. It Is Three Times at Easy to
Buy and just a valuable because it contains every
thing in the set that costs three timet at much.
The Utility is More Usable ,
The new Britannic ia the first encyclopaedia to
appear In a form that it not repellent, awkward and in
convenient. The word "encyclopaedia." like the phrase
"unabridged dictionary," probably brings to your mind's
eye a picture of heavy,' cumbersome volume or shelf
after shelf of such volumes. The "Handy Volume"
Britannlca., printed on India paper, light, thin, strong and
opaque, change ail that. The volumes are only an inch
thick and the page la only 8 inches high and 6) inches
wide 'not aa big aa nugaxlne pags, inswad of being as
big aa the page of an unabridged dictionary.
A "Handy Volume" weight only i ounce (t lb,
S 01.). That is a good deal less than the average weight
of a novel. It ia about one-sixth the weight of a volume
of the encyclopaedia printed on heavy paper and with the
old-fashioned, awkward, big pages. But everything in
the big, awkward volume Is in the light, attractive
"Handy Volume" which costs 64 less. It is exactly
aa useful because it has the full 100 of the content of
the bigger set, and much more usable becataM m amaller
