ARIES (March 21-April 20):

que The activity that you ex- perience this week will open

the way to new ideas, contacts and

locaies. Be responsive and interested.

SAURUS (April 21-May

am 20): What you own turns out to be of greater value than GEMINI (May 21-June 29):

RR You are, without question, —t the centre of attention.

However, this may come at a time when you really do want privac

CANCER (June 21-Jaly 2» wie Others are playing their pames. Realize this, and

have one or two of your own ready for immediate use.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The

ee friends that you have could now be acting in a strange manner. Allow for this — but up to

a point. r VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): at? The push and pull that you feel now is dircctly related to

your work and your homelife. Avoid self-deception now.

1 SCORPIO (Cct. 23-Nov. od 22): Your sense of direction may be slightly out of align-

ment at this point. Know it and make the adjustment. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23

Always acknowledge gift

From page 35 some).

When she receives a gift item, she always says, *‘Thank you."’ When she is Banded a card with cask or a cheqne, she always says, *‘fhaok you for the levely (or funny or sweet) card.’’ She pre- tends not to look at the cheque.

This rude behavior has caused several relatives to stop sending or giving monetary gifts. I am sure the young woman has “0 idea that she is being rude, and i don’t think she would believe her old aunt, who is all of twice her age, but I bate to think of her insulting ul! the peoote who are invited to her wedding.

GENTLE READER — if not for that crack about hitting others for money, Miss Manners might

Nor

have thought that your niece suf- fered frorn an excess of delicacy.

It is, in fact, a matter of delicacy not to mention the amount of money given as a present (“Thanks for the $15"').

Pretending that one has not been given anything at all does, howev- er, Manage to turn delicacy into rudeness. The solution is to thank the giver for the ‘‘kind (or, for a huge sum, extracrdinarily gener- ous) present’? and mention its an- ticipated use.

By the way, giving money as a present isn’t exactly delicate, ei- ther. If your niece’s etiquette error results in her wedding guests think- ing what they might find to please her, rather than simply throwing cash at her, Miss Manners will not be sorry.
