ARE DREAMS PROPHETICf
Some Instances I'm Polnt-How Predictions
May be Defeatedf

May be Defcatedt
Ten days before his death Lincoln
dreamed that 1.-the President" lay dead in
the White House, "killed by the hand of
IN assassin" When his wife heard OF the
tragedy she exclaimed: " His dream was
prOpheticW The majority of dreams, how.
over, are never fulbllsd--they are too fan
tastic, or they are solved by contrary
events. People are often possessed OF the
idea that they shall soon die. They find
themselves the subject of strange feelings.
They know they are not what they once
were, and "a they approach certain ages
they are quite sure they will not " ~ long
OF earth" These impressions as a rule are
the result OF an Imagination disordered by
disease, but they can be shaken Off by
prompt and thorough measures. We are
told that very many diseases can be pre-
ventodi indeed, half the deaths are said 20
be preventaLle! Hence tho Importance of
always acting promptly IN every personal
emergency.
These thoughts find apt illustration in the
case OF Justice William Moul, Of West
Sandlake, y. Y, so well known in Troy.
For years he was plagued by forobpdings
that he was doomed to an early death. He
had dull and fitting pains in various parts
of the body, his complexion was bad, his
appetite was variable; he felt weary with
out known cause, was constantly consti-
pated, his tongue was heavily conted, and
frequent feyerish disorders appeared. He
struggled manfully but in vain against
what seemed TO be certain doom. Then
followed extreme tenderness and pain in
the back, great lassitude, gravelly deposits
in water, which was dark, frothy and odor-
Gus, all indicating liver and kidney disor-
ders. These developments alarmed him,
especially since physicians di him no
good. About giving up in despair, he fal.
lowed the counsel of ono OF the Supreme
Court Justices to use DR.. David Kennody's
Favorite Remedy (of Rondou', y. Y.,) ~
an experiment. He did 50 and the fore
bodinSs vanished L. scattered all his bad
feelings, revived his appetite, restored his
liver and XII lneys, renewed his blood, IN.
creased his weight by twenty pounds, and
lie.
Dreams and warnings and forebodings OF
early death need not always be fulfilled Il
proper measures arc promptly takcn 20 de-
feat them.
