1+1DREAMC
DREAMS OF LINEN AND LINEN
 THINGS.

THINGS.
 Strange hints will I give you this day so that you may be able to under stand the meaning of your night visions. Of linen and linens shall I speak, of the white, cool things, that, Woven by woman's hand
 bring joy
 To woman's heart. glistening in shin-
 ing layers,
 A tribute to her diligence and art.
 This Is the rule you must observef No matter what the dream, no matter how significant may seem it's vari- ous incidents, if linen or liners figure in 1t, nothing else counts but these. Let us take an example. Suppose you were to see dying man stretched on bed and the sheet under him were to attract your at tention. The man. the impending death, and all the other episodes. be- come non-meaning. The sheet alone counts.
 Linens spread on grass, dry, mean domestic quarrels. unhappiness. sep aration, discontent. If wet, illness is their omen. Hanging up, they mean changes of propitious sort. If they blow in the wind, they tell of pain, of beatings, of hurts. Bandages. on the other hand, are signs of solace. If you wind a bandage around your own hand or foot, you will be relieved of sorrow and anxiety. your troubles will vanish, hearts-ease will come to you: if you bandage another, you will bring relief and comfort into the lives of those you love.
 To see linens piled up, in bolts, is a sign of gains, almost of riches. Men who have such dreams will gamble and will win; married women will receive money gifts from their hus- bands; single women, precious pres ents from lover or friends.
 Shreds of linen or torn sheets are signs of torn souls, of mental agony, of broken hearts. To mend linen shows that you have made mistakes and are trying to atone for them, but in vain. To see crumpled linen is an omen of marriage in haste and repentance at leisure, and to carry linens from one place to another Is a sign that you will be restless, dis satisfied, undecided.
 Pillow cases are signs of fatigue that you will be forced to work more than you can stand and that you will yearn for rest. If you spread a sheet over an object or see it spread, you Will try to hide something you have done from those around you, and to the extent that you succeed in your dream in covering 1t, to the same ex- tent will you succeed or fail in con- cealing your error.
 To see sheet or other piece of linen whisked away by the wind is a warning against theft. Lock your doors, dishonest people are looking through the windows. To have linen snatched from your hand means the loss of respect-your friends and as- sociates will soon think less of you than they have in the past, and 1t will be your own fault.

THE JARR FAMILY
By ROY l.. M'CARDELL.

Look at this dining room rug. Don't you think We need a new one or carpet?" asked Mrs. Jarr.
 ''Yes. this one does look lit- tie on the blink" said Mir. Jarr. I've often wondered why you did not get new one.'
 Well" replied Mrs Jarr, "I thought it would be just a waste of money when the children were little. You may try all you know how, but you cannot prevent young children from upsetting their plates and spilling milk on the floor"
 "Yes. that's so," said MT. Jarr, "but now the children are getting bigger and more careful we can get a new rug, can't we?"
 No more rugs for me-" replied Mrs. Jarr, decidedly. T have trouble enough keeping this house in order without having the care of waxed floors all over the house, as it has been. Where person has only one girl it's Just impossible to have rugs and waXed floors. l know they look artistic, and perhaps they are healthier, but we have to do the best we can. If We were rich now the children would eat in the nur- sery with their governess and we wouldn't need q new dining room carpet or rug
 II may be primitive and old fash icned," said Mir. Jarr, but I want my children around me, even if they are untidy."
 Yet I notice you are always cor recting the children when they cut up. at the table," ventured Mrs. Jarr, and sometimes I think it would be pleasanter for me if I hadn't the children around so much. Anyway, they are big enough now to be more careful and if I get a new carpet I'll make them be careful"
 But why not new rug, as I suggested?" said MT. Jarr. If they are big enough to be careful they won't hurt rug or polished floor"
 Who'll keep the polished floor polished?" asked Mrs. Jarr. Do you know what it means? It means that ! have to keep it stained and shell lacked and then waxed. Then every morning it has to be gone over with cloth or an oil mop and once a month, at least, waxed over again.
 Well, let us persevere anyhow, and get another rug for the dining /room,' said MT. Jarr.
 We will not, we'll get a carpet!' replied Mrs. Jarr. Rugs are all very well for people who have no chll- dren and who only use their homes as showplaces. Look at Mrs. Stry- yer! She's so afraid of her waxed floors that she is in agony when people call on her. No, I want some comfort in my house and. besides, you never can get a servant to look after floors properly"
 II only suggested another rug for the dining-room." said MT. Jarr.
 Well, 1 say we'll have a carpet!" remarked Mrs. Jarr with finality.
 But a day or so afterward Mrs. Jar asked her husband to go down town with her and pick out new dining room rug.
 Carpets are not healthful," de- clared Mrs. Jarr. Besides, 1t is so easy to take rug and clean it. and you can do that, as Gertrude always objects"

President General Of D. 4. R. in City
 Yesterday

-;othing could be lovelier than the unexpected visit of Mrs. George Maynard Minor, president general of the national society, D. A. R, and Mrs. c. Wallace W. Hanger, organ izing secretary general, who were guests of the General Sumter Chap ter, yesterday morning, for an hour en route from Florida to the East.
 Upon their arrival in the city, Mrs. Minor phoned Mrs. Joseph R. Estes. regent of General Sumter chapter, and Mrs. Watt Brown that they were here.a Previously they had written that they would not pass through, so the few precious moments were par tcularly prized. Mrs. Estes and Mrs. Brown immediately notified all mem bers of the Sumter chapter they could reach and they went to the station in body, entertained the guests at the Tutwiler, at charming little breakfast, and later went for ride over the city.
 As they were leaving each lady was presented with a beautiful bou- quet of American beauty roses--a gift from the Sumter chapter.

"One Trick dDay"
A TRAPI

A TRAP
 Bring up as a topic of conversation at the table, the resistance. power of an eggshell. Let an unsuspccting spectator try to break an egg by pressing with both hands on the point of the egg. It will be impos sible to break the shell.
 Now Is your time to say that you defy anyone to break an egg with q heavy iron hoop, provided that you be allowed to place the egg on the floor.
 No doubt you will be laughed at. but will be able to turn the laugh on your friends by placing the egg in a corner of the room, and close to the wall.
 It is easy to sec that in such a position the egg is secure, 1t being impossible to make any point on the hoop touch it.

Brookings Wins First
White Takes Second

Last Wednesday the Brookings high
school basketball team went to White
and scored a closely fought victory,
- to Is, over last years district cham
pions. Last night White came here
for a return game and defeated Brook
ings by an equally close score, Ia to
16. In both games Brookings was
crippled by the loss Of Hutchendorf,
who is out of the game on account OF
illness. Both games attracted a large
crowd Of rooters and interest was
kept at a high pitch by close scores In
spite Of the score last night, Brookings
had the superior team, but were un
able to get the ball through the loop
Their floor work was good and they
got a half dozen shots at the basket tc
one for White. but couldn't cage the
ball. Another game with White should
be arranged when the Brookings team
is not handicapped through the loss
of it's best men.

was a complete success in every way.
Miss Rude displayed exceptional poise

showed excellent taste in form rythm
and melodic display. Callaerts Inter,

much appreciated by the audience. In
FranCk'S C%antabile Miss Rude eXcelled
in bringing out in clean cut phrasing
the intricate melodic formations. The
andante from the Fifth symphony of
Beethoven "a beautifully done. Miss
Rude was delightful in the in~terpreta-
ton of the orchestral effects 10 which
the organ lends itself to make such a
work effective. AT Evening proved
to be an enhancing setting with "A
lovely accompaniment. The organist
showed her best abilities, probably,
in the concert study in which she dis
played excellent pedal accuracy to-
gether with invigorating rythm.
Miss Rude CAV her graduate recital

Rumors of Impeachment Pro-

sations Flying Around
Legislature.

" IL 6AtAs
\ few OF the Legislative member;
Friday evening sessions were called
but not enough to attempt any gen
eral business, and the sessions of Sat
urday showed that not all had fin
the grind will start for the grand rush
and with all the rumorS flying there
are several sensations to be sprung
on the public before the session gets
much older. But rumors are not al,
ways to be relied ON, and all Of them
may go glimmering. Among the ru,
mors is one Of possible impeachment
proceedings, but this is rather vague
as to facts and may go as do many
other rumors. 1t is planned as the
present recess has been longer than
usual, that no other a~djOurnments be
taken other than those of the regular
legal holidays, which will mean at the
best the session will have but twenty
seven working days to clear up all that
will show up for the session.
The report of the budget board has
been printed and while the members
heard it read the last night of the
session before adjournment, they did
not get all that it might mean, but
they will have the printed copies be
fore them at the beginning of their
work after a rest and will be able to
find out just what is covered in the
work of that board. This report will
without doubt mean a number Of bills
based on their findings to cover the
appropriations recommended. AS to
whether the members as a whole will
approve is the question, as some of
them while out at home have been
quoted as saying that they would OPP
pose any building appropriation what
ever, but whether that means they Will
not accept the report is a question
Of the test of the vote.
Bridge Engineer j. f.. Kirkham, of
the state highway department, who
has been somewhat revolutionizing
bridge costs in this state, has given
out figures which will start the bridge
enthusiasts going again. The eSti-
mates for bridges across the Missouri
have run around a million or more for
each bridge. But after taking sound
ings and measurements and working
out his estimates he says he a build
bridges for highway traffic alone at
figures ranging from about 100000 up
to a half million dollars, depending
upon the location and length of the
crossings. This would mean that five
bridges could be built at less thar the
estimated cost Of two before the fig
ures were secured.
