DREAMS OF BoLDNEss

It happens quite often. especially in the case of young women. that they dream of acts or actions on their own part, or on that of others, which can best be defined as bold ness or even immodesty. l call your particular attention to the fact that such visions do not by any means indicate an immodest mind, or that they are forerunners of immodest deeds. Some foolish interpreters claim rashly that they are. and that a dream of this sort is mirror of the sleeper's mind. I do not care what others say; my long experience has taught me that the dreamer's character has very little to do with his dreams; that a person may be highly modest and yet, occasionally have dream which, were the in- cident to happen in real life. would indicate boldness. And. likewise, peo- pie who are habitually immodest may dream of sacred subjects. This Is, of course, due to the fact that dreams are allegorical and prophetic d danger may mean pleasure, and a dream of pleasure may mean tears. l am quite sure that you fully un- derstand me.
 Let us take the most common of the socalled dreams of boldness. This IS the vision where a woman sees herself scantily attired moving about among friends or strangers. Now, were she to do this in fact, she would be immodest. But if she does it in a dream it means that she will be i'll and will receive many callers and. likewise, gifts of flow CTS and other attentions.
 If g girl dreams that her cloth ing Is torn, exposing the skin in such a manner as to cause her em barrassment, she will have small money troubles. In all Likelihood she will have to borrow.
 If 8 girl, dreaming, deliberately exposes her-body In some manner, she will, after having successfully concealed some bad trait or habit from some one she likes, give her self away in an unguarded moment. and after that she will never again be able to make the same good inn pression she created before.
 To see others commit acts of 
 satisfaction. disappointment and un- pleasant experiences. A married woman who dreams thus of her hus- band, may look forward to g jeal- ous quarrel. A girl to whom her love in such a manner Is sure to find fault with him. When women are concerned. Jealousies and mean wrangling are inevitable.
 A woman who dreams that she Is possessed with sudden desire to commit an act of boldness:
 Virtue he finds too painful 'an endeavor.
 Content to dwell in decencies
 forever
 will. in a short time. become self assertive, Quarrelsome and hard to get along with. This is one of the dreams usually reserved for unmar- ried women of between 20 and 3b, the age during which persons character ts most likely to change. tho habits of youth having waned and the moro settled and less pleas ant ways of maturity taking their place. This is not . good dream, but It's prophecy 10 absolute.
 A young woman who dreams that she is losing her clothing and is seized with . great feeling of shame. will not marry for three years.

The diggings over in the land of the pyramids is responsible for the pronounced Egyptian influence ap- parent in the new costume jewelry. The red earrings with the green bee ties are right in line with the gay colors now fashionable. The scarab in settings of antique gold makes striking pendants. 'The Sphinx in novel settings of intricate chasings is very effective. The unusual pat terms appeal to the women looking for something new.

"One Trick aDay"
TO FIND A CARD THOUGHT OF

This illusion may be made exceed ingly mysterious by the fact that the performer can remain blindfolded throughout the whole experiment.
 Take 21 cards and lay them down in three piles, face upward. Lay them in this manner: When you have placed three on the table. sstarting at the left and going to the right, the fourth card Is laid directly on top of the first. the fifth on the second and so forth. 50 that there are seven cards in each pile. Anyone is re- quested to note a card while they are being distributed. and when the cards are all out, to tell in which pack the card fell. This pack is laid between the other two. The cards are laid out a second time, in ex- actly the same manner, and again the pack that contains the card thought of Is placed between the other two.
 Then beginning in the back of the stack of cards. II cards are counted. If the trick has been done correctly. the eleventh card will be the one thought of.
