On the contrary, you may be one of those who works tirelessly behind the scenes, in the shadows, content to go unnoticed much of the time. Still, when it is your turn to be in the spotlight, you will want to be ready, and so you will train your- self accordingly and wait patiently for your turn to come. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 23 CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can prove to others just how strong-willed you are simply by staying the course today. There are some who may think you’ve come unhinged! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can give reassurances to those who have been worried about what lies around the next cor- ner -- and you don’t even have to know for ALTERATIONS We alter most any garment, specialize in mens and womens formal wear.
