Hollywood (1937)

Feature for February Making Love By The Stars! There Are Twelve types of husbands, roughly speaking, corresponding to the twelve signs of the zodiac. And since each has his own special characteristics he has to be treated in a special way. To hold her mate a woman cannot fight the stars that influence him. Once she knows what they signify, it's as if she held the key to marital happiness in her hand. By judging your husband from the types of Hollywood celebrities revealed in this article you may be able to possess that key . . . Supposing you were married to a man born under the sign of Capricorn (Dec. 23 to Jan. 20) , like CARY GRANT. The first thing is to make sure he has some place in the house that belongs to him alone — because he has tremendous need of solitude occasionally. He's apt to live in a world apart and sometimes, of course, it becomes necessary to make these Capricorns face reality. Unless they're handled intelligently they crawl into a shell and stay there! But set a goal in front of them and they'll come out of it. Show them how valuable you are and they'll tear up the earth to make you happy. I've known many a Capricorn man who had to be jogged awake before he realized he was in love — but once awakened he makes a tender, considerate and reliable husband. Intense Love Nature Aquarius men are those bora between Jan. 31 and Feb. 19. CLARK GABLE and RONALD COLMAN are two exceptionally good examples of this type. Coyness and little feminine tricks have no appeal for them whatever. They see through them too quickly. Wonderful sense of perception these fellows have. They succeed in life where others fail because of it. They have the most intense and fixed love nature of any of the signs but it's best to appeal to them as a friend, not emotionally. They make dependable mates if you do that. Don't expect a man like Gable or Colman to react to sentiment or a romantic setting, because he won't do it. That's why sentimental women frequently find an Aquarius husband a little unsatisfactory. Stand by him. Know how to be his pal and make your role of sweetheart secondary . . . and you won't have any trouble keeping him. "My husband is a darling," a young married woman said recently, "but I'm losing him. I don't know why. I have plenty of money for the two of us and I've been trying to make him give up his work." . . . She was almost in tears. . . . "Does he belong to the Pisces House — that is, does his birthday come between February 20 and March 21?" I questioned. She admitted that it did. "That's the answer," I explained. "No man likes to feel he is dependent on a woman, naturally, but with a Pisces man it's almost an obsession. He can't bear to feel he's taking anything from anyone. Even though he does lack self-confidence and there are plenty of times when his ambition needs stimulating, it has to be done in a subtle way. Don't let him be aware you're doing it. Go home and make him feel he's the rock of Gibraltar and that you are depending on him. Whenever he begins feeling that people and fate are against him— and he feels that way often — jerk him out of the mood. FEBRUARY, 1937 Sentime mates was b ntal worn little u rn in this en freq nsatisfa sign uently find Aquarius ctory. Clark Gable Is strong for palship Ronald Colman was born under the same sign as Clark Gable. Feminine trickery has no appeal for this type. They are nature lovers Scorpio men, like Dick Powell, have the grit to climb the heights — if they have the right incentive! And incentive depends on the women they love! They are rulers of the earth Buoy him up; that is the most important duty of a Pisces man's wife!" The last I heard of my young friend, she and her husband were on a second honeymoon. . . . GEORGE BRENT belongs to this House of Pisces. Oddly enough, as George himself has confessed, it was only when he mastered that feeling of people and fate being against him that he reached his real success. Actually they have it in them to be the most popular people alive, the men of this House. But they are terribly in need of a woman's faith in them. . . . In World of Ideas A very nice person who's something of a Galahad . . . chivalrous, easily charmed by the little things his wife does . . . that is the Aries husband (March 22 to April 20). And WARNER BAXTER is one of the outstanding prototypes of his sign. You'll find him always looking forward, never backward. He's impulsive, full of new changes and plans. He lives in a world of ideas. His mission in life, like that of all Aries gentlemen, is to inspire and lead. They have tremendous insight, particularly with those in whom they're most interested. So don't try to conceal anything from them! Deceit is the surest way of killing their love. But the surest way of retaining it is to make your Aries husband proud of you. Make yourself popular with his friends, especially his men friends, See that you're up to the last word in dress and manner and topics of the day. And don't argue. An opinionated wife who likes eternally to dispute a question quenches the flame in him very fast indeed! Another item to remember— he likes to have his family up and doing so don't enjoy poor health. Unlike Mr. Aries, Mr. Taurus (April 21 to May 21) is not so keen about showing off his wife. He believes very strongly that the woman's place is in the home and in family life. You'll do well not to let his friends like you too much because he's jealous. Just enough to thrill a girl's \Continued on page 54] 33
