Last Night’s Dreams What They Mean

DIO YOU DREAM OF PRISON? LIFE is twofold; sleep hath Vc Its own world,” says Byron, and Joseph Glanvlll, that eminent seventeenth. century divine and philosopher who is thought to have anticipated ’’y his Inventions the electric telegraph, says?- "We dream, see visions—one hal&our life is a Romance of fiction."

To that end, he memorises Marc Antony’s oration between meals and cultivates a stage stride which is a cross between the stiltwalking crane and a cripple with a club foot. In some localities which never have a chance to see the drama except when somebody in a touring car runs over a setting the barnstormer is welcomed as a refreshing change from pitching quoits and betting on the duration of the Mexican war. It must be admitted, however, that' not all-'Of the barnstorming now in progress takes place in the rural precincts. A pretty fair imitation can occasionally be found in theaters which ret a man back $4 for the family circle. This tends to prove that true merit often goes unrecognized, while a superior quality of nonchalant nerve gets the coin. (Copyright)

SHOW THE FLAG. Show the flag and let it wave As a symbol of the brave; Let It float upon the breeze As a sign for each who sees That beneath it, where it rides, Loyalty today abides. Show the flag and signify That It wasn’t born to die; Let Its colors speak for you That you still are standing true. True In sight of God and man To the work that flag began. Show the flag that all may see That you serve humanity. Let It whisper to the breeze That comes singing through the trees That whatever storms descend You’ll be faithful to the end. Show the flag and let It fly. Cheering every passerby, Men that may have stepped aside, May have lost their old-time pride, May behold it there and then Consecrate themselves again. Sh|w the flag! the day is gone, When men blindly hurry on Serving only gods of gold, Nop the spirit that was cold Wtjrms again to courage fine. Sh|w the flag and fall in line! i (Copyright by Edgar A. Guest.)

In fact, it is our Sober Second Thoughts that give us courage tc carry through successfully what comes to us as necessary to be done. Cool heads are always wiser than hot heads, Halter your Impulses with Sobes Second Thought Most of the regrets of the world arise from important things done on Impulse, which if but introduced at once to Sober Second Thought, would not have been done at all.

CHINS AND NECKS A GREAT number of women write, asking ways to reduce a double chin. Of course, general reduction all over the body will strip the extra flesh from under the chin, but' many women are too easy going in nature to want to reduce. Then, many carry heads hanging down so the chin droops, and the flesh fbrms a little bag beneath the chin. A;very good way to overcome this is by exercising. Tilting the head far back, then forward, repeating several times, is one good method of working off She loose flabby tissue. Another
