Justice
By GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS

NNUCH of the serenity of this world
Iva is wrapped within the ordinary
principles of Justice. And the simplest
thing of it all is that Justice for each
one of us lies within each one of us.
Just as soon as we become convinced
of the Justice of a Man or a Cause
or q Fact, we become Immediately
recOnciled to the personal relationship
which that Man or Cause or Fact
has toward us. And if our Viewpoint
is correct, without hesitation, we trust
the Just Man, we become a part of
the Just Cause-we take ownership of
the Just Fact.
Justice is the twin-brother of Truth
And if our attitude toward the Truth
which is a composite of. the highest
things in life-iS correct, to have JUS
tice within us and to distribute it to
those about us, is the highest Happi-
ness.
There is nothing that so arOuses the
Indignation and red-bloOd of man
as to feel that Injustice is being done
to anyone anywhere. For Justice is
an instinct as deeply rooted in our
consciousness as our sense of Right
and Wrong, of which indeed it is part
and parcel. SO that

.LastNight's Dreanls
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF BEAUTY?

a CURIOUS fact brought to light
4 a by the study of dream psychology
is that as a rule, the really great and
profound sorrows of the day do not
follow us into the realm of sleep. In
our dream of the night there is always
some experience or thought of the day
preceding which sets the dream ma
chinery going, it is true. 1t may be
something which has only incidentally
been taken cogniZance of by our wax
ing consciousness and can only be
traced back by minute and careful
analysis of the dream. But, as a rule,
the great sorrow and anxiety of the
day does not mingle with the dream
emotions, say the scientists. This is
explained on the theory that our emo
tons with regard to our great and real
afflictiOn have been so exhausted in
our waking moments that they have
not strength enough left to make them
selves manifest amid the throng of
other and less fused up" emotions
which come trooping from their
psychic lairs.
How often" says Goethe, shave I
fallen asleep in tears and beautiful
forms and faces have come to give me
peace and comfort in my dreams"
The mystics seem to have" realized
something of this long before the
scientists discovered it; for they say
that no matter what our waking for
tune may be, to dream of beauty is a
most favorable omen. 1t means for
the dreamer peace and plenty; success
in his enterprises and the love of those
dear to him. In this connection may
be mentioned the theory of the sci
entists that dreams are necessary
mental relief; sort of safety-valve to
avoid the too high pressure of those
unnumbered thoughts and emotions
which have accumulated in the psychic
Unconscious" and are always seeking
expression.

will make the arms beautiful, making
beds, sweeping, kneading bread or
beating cake, are all exercises that
tend to make the arms we'll developed.
Such tasks should be done with quick
movements; sluggish movements are
not exercises at all.
Swimming is good for the arms, of
course, rowing, canoeing, and all out
door sports will make the arms
pretty. Anything which makes the
arms move quickly in varying direc-
tons, which fiexes and relaxes the
muscles, is good arm exercise. Hold
ing the arms doubled up, the hand in
fist, and tightening the upper arm
muscles, is still another good exercise.
1t is such a pleasure to own pretty
arms and to be able to wear sleeveless
dresses, that every woman will feel
repaid for any trouble she goes to,
