What They Mean
DID you DREAM OF MONEY!

WI HEN 1t comes to a matter OF
w money the oracles seem to dis
pute over "flthy lucre" just as Ordi-
nary mortals are apt to do. Some OF
them say that to dream Of finding mon
ey Ia a bad sign. indicating losses; ;
and dreaming of losing money is a
good sign, indicating gain; probably
working on the dreams 60 by con-
traries' hypothesis. But the best and
most eminent authorities do not agree
to this. Some of them admit that to
dream of finding money signifies wOr-
ries, but declare that out of these tenn
porary worries great good will come ;
while others content themselves with
the statement that to dream of finding
money is lucky. All agree that to
dream of losing money is a sign of
good business, though one authority
darkly hints that you may have a spat
with your wife-if you have one-after
such q dream. AS to dreaming of saw
ing money, there are two scholastic
optimists and the pessimists. The OPP
timists declare that to dream that yo,r
are saving up money means that you
will have comfort and plenty, while
the pessimists think 1t pOrtends losses.
The weight Of opinion seems to be on
the side of the optimists. If you dream
that you are swallowing money look
out for yourself; for IL you don't you
will become so penurious and money
grabbing that you will almost, If not
quite, commit fraud to get it. So If
you get this warning loosen up the
purse-strings. II you dream of count
ing money you are liable to have dis
pute over bill. In effect 1t seems
lucky to dream about money. but you
are warned not to be too much of a
millionaire In your dreams, for il you
are too disgracefully rich I'm Dream
land your fortune will be only moder-
ate in real life.

THE WOODS
BY DOUGLAS MALocH

II you go to the lake

As II turns to the west
OF the mill.
Till you come to a stake
A surveyor has throwed
Like a knife In the breal:
or the hill.
An you follow the track
Till you come to blaze
BY the side OF the same
In a limb,
You will light on a shack,
In the timber ways.
OF a party whose name
1t is Jim.
In day that is flown,
Mid the great an the grand.
In time when his hair
Wasn't gray.
He was commonly known
BY a fancier brand
In city back there.
So they say
But it's Jim. only Jim,
Is the name that he gives,
When you happen to bring
Up the same:
1t Is plenty for him
In the woods where he lives.
Fer the man is the thing.
Not the name.
BY the CLEAN of his eye,
Thet is steady an clear,
BY the way he will look
At you square.
You will know tibet they lie
Who would make II appear
He was maybe crook
Over there.

To the start of the trail
For a spell,

Thet a lot you would learn
Thet the regaler tale
1t would tell
Of a fellah too fond
OF woman too weak,
OF another who came
To her door
Then an endless beyond,
Lips tibet never must speak,
An man but a name
Evermore.
IL you go to the town
An you follow the street.
To a mansion of brown
BY the glitter an glow
OF the nght.
Where the music is sweet
An the lutte whispers low
To the night.
In the dark of a room
At the end of a hall,
Where the visions of old
Flutter in
There she sits in the gloom,
She, the Cause of it ALL
In the midst of her gold
An her sin.
II you go to the lake
An you follow the road
AS IL turns to the west
