Brother Gardner's | New Dream Book He Invents One For That Famous Organization, the Limekiln Club. [Copyright, 1906, by C. H.

I has spoken, and I has written. I has . eben threatened to suspend members of dis club who persisted in believin'. * Findin' da* it did no good to talk and ' write and dat de cull'd man and woman wouldn't let go of deir superstishuns, I has adopted anodder course. "I hold up to your view a pamphlet. ? J fT* 1 J /I 1 it am enuuea ~r?ruuuer uaruuer? Dream and Sign Book. All Dreams Explained. All Signs Interpreted.' At de close of de meetin' I shall be happy to supply any or all of you wid dis : "A WHITE HOSS CHASiy A BLACK COW OBEB A GREEK MEADOW." pamphlet at de sum of 25 cents. For \ 14 nn/1 /Iftf *V? O T? jr UUl CUl^UlCUUi^UI auu UUI J vu liiu; , know what you am buyin' I will read | off a few of de contents: "AS TO DREAMS, i "If you dream dat you' saw a white hoss ckasin' a black cow ober a green I meadow toward a blue bam ft signi- ] fles dat dfe nest time you go out arter \ poultry a policeman am gwine to be j ' dar to nab you. I have de names of , a hundred persons who have dreamed ( dis dream and been collared 'kase dey { didn't obey de warnin'. \ "If you dream dat you saw a possum ; \ in de top limbs of a persimmon tree and dat you couldn't climb up arter him on f account of havln' two wooden lalgs it f signifies dat your aunt am gwine to l expire and 'eare you money. ( "To dream dat you are trabWin'over ( a stony kentry rn rain ami darkness j and dat you- suddenly ran agin de j ^ horns of a cow and was tossed up into - \ a mulberry tree signifies dat you will i surmount your present trubbies and t come out on topi ? I "If you go to sleep wid three dogs i under de bed and de baby cry in' wid ; ~ ~ --.1 ~ A*. 1 Utt L'Uill" iiii ue uiu ?vnuau uv.mu uv < , rest of de chill'oa and dream dat a < watermilyou you am hringin' homo 2 suddenly turns into a yaller eat who s spits in your face look out for j-onrself. s Burglars am gwhie to break into your cabin, lightnin' am gwine to strike de 1 chimney, and your landlord am com- s in' around for de back rent and act * mighty ugly about it. * "To cream dat you am gitalin* on 1 ice in de summer signifies dat good luck am com in' to you next winter. ? At de very least, your uncle will die j and leave you a mewl. ^ "If you go to sleep thinkin' of angels and golden harps and dream dat you ^ am a member of de legislature and have been offered a price to vote for a , sartin bill, be mighty kcerful for de next two weeks. Sich a dream signi- I fies danger. Don't sit under a dead j tree or walk across a shaky bridge. "Brudder Calamity Jones of dis club ^ dreamed one night dat he was ridin' j ' through de darkness and rain on de s shoulders of a witch woman and dat she suddenly kicked up and trowed ^ him off into a quagmire, where he was j sucked down. He come ober to my t house at 3 o'clock in de mawnin' to , ask me to interpret dat dream. I told \ him dat it signified a change of luck, ] and de very next day he found a dia- j mond ring in de road. , "To dream dat you am trabblin' on j foot and have stopped at a wayside hotel kept by a red headed man harm' a cross eyed wife and a valler eyed dawg and dat in de night de landlord eame up to your room an' killed you wid a crowbar signifies dat your ole woman am thinkin' of runuin' away wid a cull'd man who am attached to a sideshow of a circus. "To dream of falliug from a great , height and comin' down on top of a picket fence and bavin' three pickets ! run through your body would seem at 1 first sight to signify a calamity. Dat am a mistake, however. It signifies dat you will meet a cull'd man from de kontry and invite him to shoot craps wid you and clean him outer S2.">. Try and dream dis dream as often as you kin. It will enable you to lib without hard work. "One night, six months ago, Brudder Waydown Bebee of dis club went to sleep doorin' a thunderstorm and dreamed dnt he had turned into a spotted dawg and was about to be killed So Tired It may be from overwork, but the chances are its from an Inactive LIVER.?. With a well conducted LIVER one can do mountains of labor without fatigue. It adds a hundred per cent to ones earning capacity. it can be kept in healthful action by, and only by Ms Pills TAKE NO SUBSTITUTE. for pork. De butcher already had him by de hind laig and de water was ready to scald de bristles off of him when he awoke in a cold sweat. It was jest midnight and at de same minit an owl hooted and a dawg howled. Brudder Bebee started for my bouse on a dead run to ask me to explain. In five minutes I flggered it out dat he had-sunthin' comin' to him, and, lo, only three days had passed when one of his chil1'en sot de house afire wid a match and it was burned to de ground. Brudder Bebee had about a hundred dollars' wuth of furniture. It was insured for four hundred and fifty, as might have been expected from sich a prudent man as him. He got ebery dollar of it f^od! de insurance company, and dat's de reason his fam'ly am now wearin' diamond pins and libin on de fat o' de land. "AS TO SIGNS. "As to signs," continued the president, amid most profound stillness,, "you have 'em yere in plenty and you should commit each and ebery one to memory. "If you see a black cat chasin' a white dawg along de road and dey pass< a cock eyed man as dey go, dat is a sign of a hard winter to come. Look iround you and locate de nearest wood pile or coal yard. "If a yaller dawg howls at midnight under your winder and won't go away lfter you have pelted him wid sticks )f wood, but keeps right at it until you jo out and threaten to hit him wid de svhole front fence, make up your mind lat a calamity am at hand. You may je arrested befo' you get home wid de lext chicken or watermilyon or one of le chHl'n am gwine to fall down de veil or off de roof. "If the sun comes up in de mawnin' like a ball of fire and de wind am 'rom de west and a humpbacked man masses your cabin wid a bunch of cat lip under his arm don't leave de honse lat day. It .am a sign of mad dogs. Sit on de doah steps, wid a pile of jrickbats betide you, and be prepared :o die game. "If you sit down in a canary colored street kyar wid a red dashboard and ind yourself between a clubfooted wonan and a knock kneed man git right >ut as soon as possible and befo' de conductor has taken up your fare. To emain dar am to get a hoodoo on you. "If you am saunterin' out some evenii* and by accident approach a field in rbieb dar am a watermilyon patch iquat down by de fence and wait for i sign. If a whippoorwill breaks Into >ong near by it's all right and de bigjest melon in dat patch am yours. If nstead a cricket gives seven loud ;hirps don't you git ober dat fence. If "ou do de owner will fire a charge of ?alt into you and let his bulldog make i meal off'n your laigs. "If you hear a tickin' in de wall vhlle yon am lyin' in bed don't be two seconds gittin' out o' dat. If you con:iner to lay dar aud de ticker continers :o tick you will be invitin' a stroke of laralysis. "If you am standin' at your gate and i red headed white man comes along tnd offers 3*011 half a dollar to drive a j )lack cow to a sartin place turn away 'roni him in scorn. Dat cow will kick rl n-i f TA'I lr?f A O 1 "TT*- ' L im WUliiclil UliU j uu li^Lvy ? *.*.* ?* suit, and de white man will beat you >utor de price. "If you am sittin' 011 de fence in de | irternoon and wishin' you was rich i md three crows fly ober you and you J lear a horse whinny at de same time jo right off and buy a ticket in a lotcry. You am shore to hit de capital )rize and have money to burn for eber tfter. "Pat's all, my friends?all until yon jit de book. We will now break de neetin' in two, and you can gather wind me and pass up your money. If ;on will persist in believin' in dreams md signs, take mine and 110 other.. Dey am jest as good as anybody's, and ny old woman needs de money to buy lew goose feathers for de beds and x>i*ous plasters lor her larue back. M. QUAD. A Wedding Invitution. Mr. Black regrets that he Must impart the information That he can't accept with glee Mrs. White's kind invitation. Candidly lie must avow, Risking being thought unpleasant. That his means do not allow Of the purchase of a present. Mr. Black, too, would remind Mrs. White, without evasion. That they've met, through fate unkind, Only upon one occasion. As for the prospective bride. Her no doubt delightful daughter, If her form he'd ever yed Something he perha;^s had brought her. Mr. Black must, therefore, state. Taking all things in conjunction, That he can't participate In this fashionable function. He is neither millionaire Nor a dog inclined to mangers; He's just one who cannot spare Charities for perfect strangers. ?London Tribune. / THOMAS A. (OPPOSITE POST OF!
