A WARNING DREAM.
The Vision Lincoln Saw Several Times
In His Sleep.

Napoleon believed devoutly in
dreams a3 warnings or even as fore
casts OF what was to come. and even
he who most prides himself upon his
freedom from superstition knows of
or has experienced at least one dream
that cannot be explained as mere
result OF overlooking.
When we contemplate dreams and
their qualifications science can help us
but little In their explanation. Wikie
. Collins showed this to be so in one OF
his most Ingenious novels. "Armadale."
Warning dreams or premonltions may
be the result of natural laws which
we do not understand.
Lincoln was not counted supersti-
tious because he had some confidence
In the prophetic character of one
dream, at least, for 1t visited his sleep
on several occasions, and he spoke Of
it seriously to members of his family
and 10 his closest friends. In telling
Of this vision he said he seemed to be
in "a singular, indescribable vessel,
but always the same, moving with
great rapidly toward dark and in
definite shore"
The dream preceded several marked
incidents during his occupancy of the
presidential chair, notably before the
battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg
and Gettysburg. qtap
On the morning of the memorable
14th Of April he Informed members Of
his cabinet that lie had dreamed this
same thing the night before and be-
lieyed that they were on the threshold
Of some momentous issue. So i'm
pressive were his remarks that his
auditors were profoundly moved. but
no seer among them could read the
warning Alright and foresee the awful
news of his assassination which should
be flashed that night to stunned and
Mortified people!-Phlladelph Ledger

POINTS. ON AUTUMN MILLINERY
Some Features That Are Distinctly
New Will Mark the Headgear Of
the Coming Season.

Chenille is very prominent and
shown in exqiuite colors of velvety
softness. Often 1t is interviewer with
silk braid, forming crown plateaux
and trimming bands, and in this in
stance offers splendid possibilities for
novel color blends.
A remarkable feature IT the autumn
models is that the pronounced and dis
tinctive outlines which prevailed in a
great many of the midsummer hats
had to yield the palm to unusually
soft, undecided ones. This is due to
the fact that there are very few
blocked shapes employed for the truly
exclusive chapeaux, those that are
softly draped with rich, supple ma
terial being in the lead.
Gala lilies of velvet are shown and
represent the latest fashion in the
new floral offerings. They are equally
lovely when in fancy tones black,
dull blue, purple or rose-as in their
natural pale, creamy white, and in

tas are seen in the shops in all the
newest colorings.
Shirring over cords and in tiny
puffs will be seen more and more as
the season advances.
The scarf which matches the gown
is becoming one of the familiar fea-
lures for the light wrap.
The winter promises to be season
of extra long, narrow coats over plain,
striped or checked gowns.
A gay Beau Brummel frill III the
throat transforms the tailored suit
into something dainty and feminine.
Black embroidery upon brown is
smart when the brown is not too dark
to afford contrast with the black.
Hats of dark material, lined with
something lighter in color, are among
the dressy types of midsummer wear.
The coarser weaves of tussore,
which have the preference just now,
look at distance like piece of rough
canvas.
Sleeveless coats with color con-
trasting with the gown under them
are in growing favor as the season
advances.
Among the popular fabrics are the
new two-tone changeabie satins, the
face being of one color and the back
of another.
One of the oddities of the season is
the introduction of the metallic and
spangle. effects among the cottons and
linens.
Glace kid gloves are imperative for
full dress, except in very hot weather,
and may be worn with almost any cos
tune. Glace kid is expensive, but it
wears and cleans WELL
Pear-shaped pearls or jewels, or
strands of platinum threaded with dia-
monds and pearls, are fashionable.
ColOred net or tulle sleeves have a
lining of gold net. This gives just a
charming simmer through the outer
mesh
