JOHN-A-DREAMS
AIV. THE JINGLE OF MONEY
 WHAT DOES TT MEAN?

How queer we do not dream 1t every
 night!
 TRANCE. indeed. that dreams of
 money are so rare. One might
 think that subject so closely identified with our everyday affairs would more frequently fill the visions of our sleep. True. things suggestive Of money value often fit past our minds slum bering eye, but money itself. in coins and in bills. is rare visitor Be careful. then. not to coh- found it with gold. silver, other precious metals, with gems or treas ure. or with any of the worldly posses sions that signify riches. Of all these things I will tell you at some later time; today it is of money alone. such as you carry in your purse and use in your daily transactions: that l shall speak.
 You may count yourself fortunate if. in reality. you find money, thinking that:
 T money go before. all ways lie open
 but to find coins or bills in a dream is n very bad sign. In its broadest sense this vision may hint at an inheritance to come but more frequently it signi- fes losses, small or great as the case
  ! shadow cast ahead by a sad event that will bring mourning into your life. AL 1 most. as if to bear out the usually un- l true old saw that Dreams go by con- l traries." it is a sign of good luck if ! you dream of losing money. and the ! greater the sum the better and more ] pleasing will be the gain which awaits 1 you. But the meaning of the dream varies with the manner in which your 1 loss comes about. If you seem to re- member. as if with a sudden shock. i that you had money a moment before | and that the next it has disappeared. l this is a sign that your good luck will | come quite unexpecedly and will ex- l ceed all your greatest hopes. If, on 1 the other hand. you seem to remember where and how you lost your money. | of if the loss occurs as the result of a business failure or other unfortunate | transaction, your profit will be small and hardly enough to cause you to l consider it a reason for exultation. l If you dream that you empty your 1 purse or turn your pocket inside out l and coins fall to the floor, an exceed | inyly unpleasant incident of a minor | sort probably quarrel, will disturb | your peace of mind:
 Lies in their purses: and whoso emp l ties them
 l By so much fills their hearts with | deadly hate.
 l The jingle of money. especially If you do not see the coins is a sign of | happy laughter and the clinking on the | floor of one coin is a forerunner of a | letter bringing pleasant news. But if the coin. as 1t falls to the ground. rolls from your sight, beware of false 
 see money and do not touch it, the next few days will bring you anger | and disappointment If you count money, the general accepted meaning g is that you will be unable to extricate yourself from some impending difficult l ty, and If, as the bills or coins pass through your fingers, you lose the i count and become bewildered. then l your perplexities will indeed be great If you dream that you take money l away from someone in a forcible man ner you are at the point of committing | grave error and unless you guard yourself carefully in all the important actions of the next few days you will make bitter enemy who will do you great harm
 Kill a mans family, and he may brook | 1t.
 l But keep your hands out of his
 brooches pocket
 l was once told by a friend that he dreamed of being almost swallowed up hy a flood of bills. I delved deeply in to the lore of dreams and found that the vision presaged a great tempta- ton and dire danger. He lived on hap ply and instead of being beset by troubles his good luck increased and everything he touched seemed to turn to gold. Some time later he asked me to explain this inconsistency and then requested him to again relate his | dream. As he did SO he added: 'tThe more tried to push the money away from me the greater its volume ap- peared to grow"
 Again I investigated and then l found this in an ancient tome: But if thou fight the flood of money and 1t groweth and riseth with every move Of your hand. then great good luck will be thy share ."
 This incident shows that if you should dream of money and ask me | for an interpretatfon. your letter must
