The chief trouble with them seems to be their occult relation slander and gossip; which is probably why you call that gossiping neighbor of yours an “old eat” regard as your friends are talking about you when you dream of eats, If the cat appears gentle or sleeping, so much the worse. But don’t be alarmed ; to be gossiped about Is the common lot, Just drive the dreameat away and all will be well, If the animal makes off in response to your energetic “Seat!” you will trinmph over many obstacles. But choose your confidants carefully when you see dreaments, It is not a good sign to have the cat attack you, for it means that the obstacles you will have to overcome will be great. Dreamcats also, strangely enough, seem to have a connection with rob bers. If you beat or kill a eat in your dreams you are going to catch a thief, and if it Is a cat you never saw before you will recover all he may have stolen from you. These are only gen- eral rules; the mystics are not agree. ing at all with regard to the details of eat dreams, Havelock Ellis, in his book “The World of Dreams,” gives an amusing example of a cat dream by a poet to of his the friend $ Cal The poet dreamed of a dream for “tip- associa. nnd conscionsneus, «ome reason, suggested the word ent,” The faculty of verbal tion got to work and produced the fol- | lowing doggerel : Call in the tipcat, cut off its tall, Fold up some eggs in a saucepan: Sit on the rest like an elderly male And gulp down the rest as a horse can.

Admiral Pillsbury, who has just died the aged of seventy-three, never yet in the develop ment of his career he came to be known more as a scientist than as a fighter.

Among those rivals was the prince of Monaco, who has algo made a specialty of currents. Ad- miral Pillshury’'s monographs contrib. ute very largely to the world's stock of information.
