| when Senator Foa.4 Sha Q William l retired from pcstieai ifa at tae ci' | of Congress, aonle ono asked hln. what he was aoi1s to ao hs replied homo in Mississippi, - nis id frien1d and old neighbors, and to ,.ls he N-
 and his mocking birds and his flow l CTS, and then he added
 "I will not be lonesome. for in 6s
 years I have never once bored my self"
 I think the thing that most of us l will envy Senator Williams more
 than we do his long and brilliant ca reer; more than the honors that have
 been heaped upon him: more than his l fame as statesman and an orator
 will be the fact that he has always
 had an entertaining companion in l himself.
 Most of us, alas, are such poor company to ourselves. We are so l tedious and tiresome and dull that the thing we dread more than any | thing else on earth is our own so- ciety. We cannot bear to be alone. even for an hour, and in our frantic l efforts to escape from our wearlness of ourselves we resort to desperate | devices.
 We flock to see moving pictures | whose scenarios are written down to the levil of idiot children. We pay our good money at vaudeville shows | to listen to jokes of the Rutherford E. Hayes period. We spend evenings at jazz places jumping about to the ringing of COW bells and the beating of tin pans. We consort with other individuals, even more asinine than we are ourselves. Anything to avoid | a tete-a-tete with ourselves. Happy, then. the man whose mind I-:. I-.,1 lc otN1 l,n t, ,ox- nv. so little as when alone. Happy is he who has within himself com rade of whom he never tires; one who is always suggesting new and entertaining things to do, and who is always interested in everything that happens; who Is forever getting a fresh angle and another viewpoint on every subject; one who hits folly as it flies and sweetens and gladdens the world with an unfailing sense of humor.
 Age has no terror for the man who Is that sort of a companion to him. self Loneliness does not exist for him. for if he were by himself on desert island he would still be in the midst of a brilliant and entertain ing society.
 Since we must always live with ourselves, and we cannot avoid our own company as we would that of any other bore, it Is a pity that we do not give more thought to making ourselves agreeable companions for ourselves. Of course. the best way to do this is to cultivate our minds.
 You cannot imagine the man whose brain is stored with all the storied past being so afraid to spend an eve ming with himself that he flees to the corner grocery for company. Nor can YOU picture the woman who loves to read preferring to hang over the back fence and gossip with the next door neighbor about tho number of chop bones the Jonsets have in their garbage can.

THE MOTHER OF TENNYsON

charming, clever, good woman, who combined all the virtues IL was possible for one woman to nave, was Elizabeth Fytche Tennyson, mother of the great poet. Alfred, Lord Tenny- son. She was at once. acording to enthusiastic biographers, intelligent, amiable. good looking and dutiful. She was the daughter of clergy man, and. consequently, was well equipped by training as well as by nature to be the wife of minister.
 She was an extremely broad-mind- ed tolerant woman, apparently su- perior in many ways to her husband, the Rev. George Clayton Tennyson, who was typical Victorian preacher. She was an excellent housek eeper, but did not let the running of her home absorb her to the exclusion of everything else. She read a good deal and had an open, alert mind, constantly receiving impressions and giving out ideas.
 It is fairly safe to assume. in the light of ,asl this evidence. that the poet inlreritedt more qualities from his mother than he did from his father. He was the fourth of ? chil- dren and his mother always made 1t her business to be on friendly. com panionablc basis with him. In this case too, it vas the mother under standing the child's needs and pecu- liarities, who stood between him and stern. single track minded father Of Mrs. Tcnnyson, one commentator wrote:
 "No man was ever blest with bet ter wife, and no child with a more splendid mother" she was jewel of a woman" another writer said with as many facets as well cut diamond"
 In addition to her beautiful at- titude toward her children. and her dutiful behavior toward her husband, Mrs. Tennyson always managed to care for the poor and the sick of her husbands parish. She seems to ade- qustely fulfil the biblical require lnnuts nf q virtI Inls 1ynman

CLuI-DREAMs OF FINGERNAILs

CLIII-DREAMS OF EINGERNAILS
 Dreams of fingernails indicate, in a way, what you will do in a few days or a weeks time.
 If you dream that you are polishing your fingernails, you will attend an event, a party or similar gathering, where you will want to appear eX- ceptionally well groomed.
 A dream in which you are cleaning your fingernails is an indication that you will have much homework to do, or other labor that will soil your hands.
 If you are cutting your fingernails, you will be nurse to sick person. The right hand means wtman pa tent, the left a man.
 A dream that shows an injury to one or more of your fingernails is an omen of a painful duty. Just what this may be is usually indicated by the nature of the rest of the dream. As mere hint l might say that if no blood shows, the duty will be Of the mental or spiritual sort; if there is bloc d, it will be more material in it's character.
 If you dream that one of your fin gernails is disco-ored, watch care fully what the color Is. For, if it is red, you will blush, if it is blue. you will cry; if brown, you will be in pain; if green, you will be jeal- ous; if yellow, you will beg fla vor; If black, yCu will attend fu- neral
 Dreams in which the fingernails of others become very apparent to you are to be interpreted in the same manner, only the application refers to others, you being merely the me dium through which they may be in formed as to what Is in store for | them.
 To scratch someone with your fin gernails is always bad sign. There l is no exception whatever. You will hurt the person whom you scratch | through a mean word or action, and l if you are being scratched, you will | be the victim of someone's malice. It happens at times that you cannot recognize the dream person whom you scratch or who scra tches you. In this | event, observe the one who meets you on the following morning with an unpleasant remark; this is the one meant by the dream.
 If you should dream that you have lost fingernail, your hand will do a wrong act The incidents Of the i dream will clearly tell you what you may look forward to.
 In the next chapter I shall tell you i of dreams of floors.
 John Dreams will be glad to in l terpret dream experiences sent to the l editor of The Age Herald by it's read 1 CTS. No replies will, however. be l given privately and no fee will al any time be asked or accepted.

an order made by the senate sew

Senator Jones. republican OF
Washington. in charge of the ship
bill. expressed himself as satisfied
with the turn of events last night
which took the measure out of its
position as the unfinished business
OF the senate, pointing out that his
motion to take it up again now
was the pending business and must
be disposed of before any other ac-

night the pending business had

The Idaho senator held the gov

he said, has been brought about
by the farmers answering his coln

Senator Gooding defended the
policy of sterilization of prices,
denying It was sociaIistic and point
ing to the action of the government
in stabilizing the wages of railroad
labor, in fixing rates, and in estab
fishing prices for silver. He called
attention to the shipping bill with
its provisions for government aid
and stabi1ization OF ocean freight
