OUR DREAM s.

Which Often Make Us Awake with a
Tired Feeling.
Perhaps the most practical lecture.
says the London Telegraph. was one
which may assist Us to know which
OF our dreams are signs that some
thing is wrong with our bodily Or
ganization. As a rule. said the learn
ed lecturer it is best not TO dream at
! all; dreamlessness is usually symp-
tom OF good all-rOund health. A
child's dreams arc invariably signs OF
disturbed health and should be re-
garded with anxiety. For adults it is
good thing to know that we may be
sure that our brains are being over
strained when our nightly dreams re-
late to the events OF the day, and if we
actually seem in our sleep to be con-
tlnuing our daily work. tt s is dan
ger signal which must never be dis
regarded.
When we feel worr ed in the morn
ing very likely it results from
dreams that We have forgotten. and
then the best thing TO do is to take
exercise. Without coming to any de-
c:dcd opinion as to the supernatural
meanings attributed to dreams. we
can at least profit by the Sc practical
hin's. Considered n, products of bad
digestion. dream, cannot be reason
ably expected to tell us anything Of
useful character. or supply us with any
warning except one directed against
the continuance OF depraved dietetic
habits.
II it is sure that the sleep of health
is dreamless then it becomes difficult
to believe that tho only persons to
whom visions III sleep arc vouchsafed
should be victims Of indigestion. 1t
is always puzzle for persons of an
unimaginativo turn of mind to under
stand how the future which does not
yet exist can be supposed to have
any effect on the present; and it must
be admitted that dreams of warning
are much harder to believe than tho
brain waves" and the Thought
transformers" which members of the
Physical Research Society take as
matters quite in the ordinary course
OF things.
There is considerable mass OF tes-
timony in favor of the power of the
mind to produce results at an enor-
nous distance by some system OF
physical biography of which nobody
has yet discovered the secret. A man
who goes to sleep and dreams that
his brother is being killed by wild
tribe in Central Africa and who after
wards hears that he did meet with
that fate at the precise time when the
vision occurred. need not fly to any
supernatural explanation for tho pho.
nOmenon.
1t is quite different when dream
tells OF something which is to happen
in few months time. In tho latter
case most people will prefer to join
with science in attributing the fact
either to law OF coin cidence or to
simple delusion. We must do science
the justice to admit that If she in
creases the gloominess OF life in some
directions as by her doctrine OF the
struggle for existance, she decreases
1t in other respects one OF which is
by aiding in the gradual Punishment
OF and confidence in visions and
omens and 'weirduess" generally.

In the shop cellar we nailed lath on
each side OF the joists. near the lower
edge. On this lath We hung the frames.
There not being room to hang them
straight across they were hung on a
slant. About an iLch space was left
between them. II there was to be any
great amount OF Earring. they might
not be very secure, as they have only
the thickness OF the lath. about / OF
an inch, to hang on; and. being hung
on a slant, they will be more easily
knocked down.
There are several advantages in hav-
ing them hung up in this way. There
is not so much danger OF their being
injured by mice; they are entirely out
OF the way, as they do not take up any
available room, and are very easily
got at when wanted. With free cir
culation Of air, and the GOODNESS Of the
cellar the worms will not get at them
so early. nor work so rapidly. They
arc in such condition that they are
easily examined and we will keep
close watch OF them. and the first trace
OF worms that we see we will De on
hand with birthstone as they are in
excellent shape to fumigate. tits i'm
portant 10 take them whom the worms
are small; for after they are full grown
they will stand an immense amount OF
birthstone without seeming injury.
But there is one objection: Tine
combs will not be nearly SO nice and
sweet us when kept by the bees, and.
with any reasonable proportion be-
tween the bees and combs. would
much rather leave them to the tender
mercies OF the bees. Emma Wilson,

In the senate on the 23d the rela.

was based on a resolution previously
offered by him instructing the judici.

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
A Summer Garden In tho Air-Fro-
posed Extension OF the City Limits
The Chinese and tho Camera.

posed Extension OF the City Limits
The Chinese and tho Camera.
ST. LOUIS, June 25.-The highest
summer garden in the world will be
ready for the people by the beginning
of next summer on the top of busi-
ness buildings now going up on Olive
stories high, and the garden will be on
TOP of that. At present, it is intended
that the garden shall be simply for
people to sit in and look out over the
city, but it is quite possible that the
idea will be elaborated, and n theatre
constructed on the lofty platform.
The building associations of st. Louis
have increased SO rapidly that it has
been almost impossible to keep count
of them in the last year. Well in
formed people put the number of them
now in the city ut three hundred or
more. Their officers held meeting
the other night, acting as u State as
socation, and decided to ask the legisla-
ture to create the Office of State eX-
aminer of building associations. The
petition will doubtless be granted. An
officer of this sort would protect associa-
tons from Islander, and the stockhold-
ers from fraud.
The Chinese of st. Louis are just be.
ginning to understand that they must
all be photographed by the collector of
internal revenue before May 5 of next
year, and they are much disturbed
about 1t. This is in accordance with
the exclusion act, passed by Congress
last year. That provides for the photo
graphing of every Chinaman in the
country within a year from the passage
of the act, May 5, 1892. The Chinese
abominate photography as th,y do
newspapers and they will make every
effort to evade the laws. There are
only 800 Chinese In st. Louis, accord
ing to the census, but more than half
of these are never seen on the streets.
The proposition made by Street Com
missioner Murphy of ST. Louis, to in
crease the city's revenue by extending
| its lines 50 as to take in great part of
| st. Louis county will, of course, meet
with much opposition, but it is gener-
| ally regarded as remarkable one,
nevertheless. The commissioners plan
will double the area of st. Louis and
| add half a million dollars to its reve-
| nue., but the opponents of the scheme
say that the county would demand
more than half a million dollars worth
of improvements as soon as brought
into the city. Yet everybody comedies
that something must be done to pro-
vide for the legitimate extension of
the city as it grows beyond the provis-
ions of the charter made fourteen
years ago, and the commissioner plan
| is the first attempt that has yet been
made by anybody to grapple with the
| question. If Major Murphy's annex
alton boom succeeds the city will have
populated.

The matter was still under discus
sion when. at , o'clock. the anti
option bill came up as the unfinished
business. Mr.. Vest assailed the meas
ure as an undue stretch of the eonsti-
tuition; as an attempt on the part OF
congress to exercise police powers
, within the states and as a delusion to
the farmers in whose interest, he said,
it was making. Mr.. Washburn defend
ed the DILL from some OF Mr.. Vests
, thrusts, and several others OF the SEN
ators took part in the discussion, which
they maintained for three hours.
Mr.. Daniel had the floor and was ar
guing on somewhat the same lines that
| Mr.. Vest had used when the hour OF
adjournment arrived. In the house
politics were tabooed and the machine
ry OF legislation, we'll oiled by reso-
luton from the committee on rules,
ran with an unusual smoothness. A
number OF measures were passed. the
most i'm portant OF which was that in
creasing the pay OF the life saving
service. The bill granting an Ameri-
can register to the steamship China
was defeated. The commerce commit.
tee was authorized to investigate the
Reading combine.
In the senate on the 2lst the dis
agreeing conference report on the de-
fciency bill was presented and agreed
to ana another conference asked. Mr..
Carey. from the committee on terrific
, ries. reported back the house bill for
the admission OF New Mexico as a
state. and said that he would not call
it up until the next session. Mr. Platt
member OF that committee. said the
report was not unanimous and that he
would present minority report. Mr.,
Warren addressed the senate 10 favor
Of The bill introduced by him - the
