JOHN-A-DREAMS

It happens quite often that in Most frequently, the cup or glass contains water. At times it is beer or wine, sometimes even a strange draught that you do not recognize. In the general sense of dream meanings, to drink means to get relief, and if no remarkable incidents are coupled with the vision you will have to be content with this simple interpre- tation. But I have heard from many whose dreams of drinking brought to them an interesting. connected story; and from these experiences I shall glean those which seem most likely to recur.
 A refreshing, invigorating drink of water is ever a good sign a token of strength, of health, of power. Should you dream thus at time when you are sorely troubled, when problems beset you. know that all obstacles will vanish as soon as you approach them bravely. -.
 A cooling draught, and all her for
 mer grace
 Returns, and she resumes the chase. But if the drink brings no refresh ment, or if tastes badly, or is tepid, or muddy in appearance and the sensation of gulping it down is un- pleasant, you are standing at the threshold of troublous times and the next few days will bring you face to face with serious questions. Most likely, you will receive a legal notice of some kind or other, the aftermath of some foolish or reckless or inn provident act on your part. And you will be annoyed by minor tribula- tions.
 Strong drink always is a sign of a tempestuous experience to come-in love or hatred, at home or else drank; I lil1'd 1t not; twas rage
 twas noise,
 An airy scene of transitory joys | Wild dreams succeeded, and dis orderd rest
 A violent quarrel is the more usual occurrence thus foreshadofwed
 But there have been cases where great wrong has followed such an
 omen, a deed of violence or an ir- reparable mistake and years of regret could not make up for that | one moment of lack of control. It | is a dream to be dreaded.

 sugary words from false lips, at times the kisses of one. not to be trusted To have drink handed you by some one you love, provided you do not taste of it, is a sign of small but pleasing gifts; by stranger, the coming of guests filled cup or glass offered by man to a woman is an almost certain message of proposal, by woman to man, disappointment in love. Drink of- fered and spilled means tears, and If the liquid stains your gown, broken vow will make you unhappy. If, on the other hand, the drink is deliber- ately poured. out, either by you or the person who proffers it. you may be assured that an impending event you feared, will, far from distressing you, bring you solace.
