Mr.. Pope continued that on arriving

by the magistrate, and Mr.. Pope. after
conferring with his lawyer, Thomas

 What They Mean
EATING.

THE question of eating is very se
 \ rious and unsettled one in Dream land and about it the authorities dts pute as acrimoniously as do those giv
 en to the eating habit in the world of realities over who Is responsible for the present high cost of living. According to some, to dream that you are eating in company with others, either at the family dinner-table or at a banquet, is a sign that you will be successful in profitable undertakings and that your surroundings will be pleasant and cheerful. The opposing school warns you to beware of attend ing dream banquet as that signifies that secret enemies are plotting against you, recommending only a small family party at the table. To. dream of eating at all, say some of the oracles, meaas that you are going to spend money foolishiy, to which the other side retorts that every one does, sometimes. spend money foolish ly but not on the hanquetS of Dream land, which are attended with profit anu outtCSS. VI liclk1o tAiN 1CctSOil iol this disagreement of the mystic au- thorities is that the old saying 'What Is one mans meat is another mans poison" holds good in the realm of shadow as well as out of it and that the phantom food Of dream tables gives nourishment and strength to some egos while it gives others psychic indigestion. As the authorities refuse to agree on the eating subject the read CT must determine it for himself The nest time you dream of eating ob- serve what happens and then say which school of mystics is right. As to different articles of food even the EaSsimsts admit that it is a good sign to dream of eating broiled meat Pc tatoes are looked upon with favor but the ban is placed upon turnips. as they mean quarreling, and salads are de clared to be distinctly unwhoIesome.
