Ten days before his death Lincoln dreamed
hat " the President lay dead in the White
House, killed by the hand of an assassin.
When his wife heard of the tragedy che ex-
claimed, His dream was prophetic!" The
majority of dreams, however, are never full
dlled-they are too fantastic, 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
as they approach certain ages they are quite
sure they will not " be 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 dis
eases can be prevented; indeed, half the
deaths are said TO be preventablel Hence the
importance OF always acting promptly in
every personal emergency.
Justice William Moul, OF West Sandlake,
n, Y, very highly esteemed in Troy, was for
years plagued by forebodings 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 without known cause,
was constantly constipated, his tongue was
heavily coated and frequent feverish dis
orders appeared. Then followed extreme
tenderness and pain in the back, great las
situde, grayelly deposits in water which
was dark frothy aud odorous, all indicat-
ing liver and kidney disorders. These de
yelopments alarmed him, especially since
physicians did him no good About giving
up in despair, he followed the counsel OF
one OF the Supreme Court Justices to use
DR.. Iavid Kennedys Favorite Remedy (oi
Rondout, N. Y, as an experiment. 1t scat
tered his bal feelings, revived his appetite
restored his liver and kidneys, renewed hi;
blood, increased his weight by twenty pounds
and to it alone he gives the credit Of saving
his life.
Dreams and warnings and forebodings Of
early death need not always be fulfilled il
proper measures are promptly taken to de
feat them -TrOU IN w Times

presentation of the "Chimes Of Nor

too mush TO say that everyone present
was agreeably surprised by the manaer
In which the beautiful opera was pre-
scented. OF course, a good amateur
performance was expected, bat the
amateurs last evening, with very few
exceptions, shed lustre upon amateur
dom and surpassed many of the profess
siouais who have been in the habit Of
visiting Seattle. After the frst con-
straint wore of. the performance moved

1t is estimated that nine of all

is the season when the lantern is fire.
quently used in the barn, and we give
a word of caution. Never light lamp
or lantern of any kind in the barn,
Smokers may include their pipes and
cigars in the above. The lantern
should be lighted in the house or some
outbuilding where no cOmbustibles are
stored. A lantern which does not
burn well should never be put in order
in the hay NOW. There is a great
temptation to strike match and re-
light an extinguished lantern, wher-
ever it may be. 1t is best to even feel
ones way out to safe place, rather
than run any risks. If the light is not
kept in the hand, it should be hung up.
Provide hooks in the various rooms
where the lights are used. A wire run
ming the whole length of the horse
stable, at the rear of the stalls, and
furnished with sliding hook, is very
convenient for night work with the
horses. Some farmers are so careless
as to keep the lamp oil in the barn,
and fill the lantern there while the
wick is burning. Such risks are too
great, even if the buildings are insured.

The CI,iIdren We Keep.

The children kept coming one by one.
Till the boys we're Eve and the girls were thre'
And the big brown house was alive with fun
From the basement door to the old roof tree
Like garden flowers the little ones grew,
Nurtured and trained with the tenderest care
Warmed by loves sunshine bathed in its dew,
They blOOmed into beauty, like roses rare.
But one Of the boys grew weary one day,
And leaning his head on his mothers breast
He said, 4 am tired and cannot play,
Let me sit awhile your knee and rest
She Graded him close in her fond embrace,
She bushed him to sleep with her sweetest song
And rapturous love still lighted his face
When his spirit had joined the heavenly throng
Then the eldest girl with her thoughtful eyes,
Who stood where the brook aud the river meet
Stole softly away into Paradise
Ere the river" had reached her slender feet.
While the fathers eyes on the grave were bent,
The mother looked upward beyond the skies;
Our treasures she whispered, were only lent,
Our darlings were angels in earth's disguise"
The years flew by and the children began
With longing to think of the world outside;
And each in his turn became a man,
The boys proudly went from the fathers side.
The girls women gentle and fair
That lovers were speedy to win
And with orange blossoms in braided hair
The old homes were left, new homes to begin.
So, one by one the children have gone,
The boys were five and the girls were three;
And the big brown house is gloomy and lone
With but two old folks for its company.
They talk to each other about the past,
AS they sit together at eventide,
