A Family Mix

In the early part of the last century
there lived in an old New England town
a Mr.. Church, who in the cou1se of his
pilgrimage through this vale of tears,
was bereft of four wives. all of whom
were buried in the same lot. In his old
age it became necessary to remove the
bodies to Il new cemetery. This melan-
chOly task the much bereaved widower
undertook himself bnt in the process
the bones of the lamented quartet be-
came hopelessly mixed Priding him
self Of Il New England conscience, Mr..
Church would not undertake the pain
ful circumstances, permit the use of the
original hcaAstones, but procured new
ones, one Of which bore the folio wing
inscriptions: Here lies Hannah Church
and probably Il portion of Emily" An
other: Sacred to the memory of Emily
Church, who seems to he mixed with
Matilda" Then followed these lines:

A Warning Dream

Napoleon believed devoutly in dreams
US warning or even as forecasts of what
was to come. and even he who most
prides himself upon his freedom from
superstition knows Of or has experience
ed ut least one dream that cannot he
explained as mere result of overfeed-
ing. ...
When we contemplate dreams and
their qualifications science can help US
but little in their explanation. Willzie
Collins showed this to be so in one of
his most ingenious novels, "Armadale. -
Warming dreams or premonitions may
be the result of natural laws which we
do not understand.
Lincoln was not counted supersti-
tions because he had some confidence
in the prophetic character of one dream,
ut least. for it visited his sleep on
several occasions, and he spoke of. it
seriously to members of his family and
to his closest friends. In telling of this
vision. he said he seemed to be in "a
singular, Undesirable vessel, but always
the slime. moving with great rapidity
toward a. dark and indefinite Shore
The dream preceded several marked in:
cidents during his occupancy of the
presidential chair, notably before the
battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg and
Gettysburg.
On the morning of the memorable
18th of April he informed members of
his cabinet that he had dreamed this
same thing the night before and be-
lieved that they were on the threshold
of some momentous issue. So i'm
pressive were his remarks that his audi
tors were profoundly moved, but no
Seer among them could read the warn
ing Alright and foresee the awful news
of his assassination which should be
flashed that night to a stunned and
Mortified people!-Philadelphia Ledger.

GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT

According to the bureau of statistics
there is Il gradual Improvement in the
traffic situation of the country. Slow.
ly and sadly we are recovering from the
Roosevelt panic According to the
figures at hand the coal, textile and
shoe trade show IL considerable upward
trend from the depressed condition pre-
vailing during the early part of 1908.
Movements of live stock, provisions and
grain, on the other hand, suffered a con-
siderable check. Building operations
maintained a high record characteristic
of the earlier months. The traffic situa-
ton, as measured by the cars handled
by various traffic associations, also
shows Il turn for the better, though the
April figures for the current year are
still almost 10 per cent below those re-
ported two years ago.
Evidently the home market is over
taking production SO far as cattle, hogs
and wheat are concerned, and the price
of meats and -four is steady advancing
IN consequence. Other articles are
higi1r because combinations have been
formed to make them so. Just how
much more is to be tackled on it is i'm
possible to fortcll, but to use u railway

cedlnS month. The number of cars
handled in all parts of the country dur
ing April by thirty-onc dcmurage bu-

OF the year, 9,009, O61 while about half

than the number handled during the

Traffic on the railroads is the true in

there are largn number of idle cars
