1 MIDWINTER NIGHTS DREAM.
Peculiar Experience Of one who Makes
Advertising u Study..-The
Sequence.

An employc of the ARGUS office had a
dream last night. which has made pro-
found impression upon him. He is con
nected with the advertising department
of the paper. and his heart and soul are
in the work, which. doubtless accounts for
his dream. When he came down this
morning he related his strange experience
to the reporter as follows: Il thought
was on the ferry embarking for Daven-
port; the last bell had rnng, when great
multitude of people came rushing down
to the shore toward the boat, which was
already loaded down. As they came on
with jam and push, it seemed as if the
entire population was included, and the
thought struck me that they were going
| over to the Iowa town to do their holiday
trading, This incensed me beyond con
| troll. and went up to several of them and
told them to go back and patronize our
own merchants. but they needed not and
seemed TO crowd on all the more, and
became angry, very angry. and as the
boat pushed GU. from the shore,
mounted seat in the cabin and began to
lecture them. | said: Ladies' and gentle
men, and fellow citizens, my townsmen
and friends. this will not do. pray you
to consider what you are about to do,
How can You expect our merchants to
succeed and prosper if you shun them
thus. if you turn your backs to them and
go elsewhere to do your trading? Think
well before you act and commit such an
outrage rs you are about to, patronize
home trade. which is the life of our town. "
AT this moment | WAS interrupted by
shouts of get down sit down. what
have you to do with it?' and so forth, and
l became mad with rage and personal
encounter ensued, during which awoke.
and what sigh of relief had"
They say it is improper to tell dreams.
| but the ARGUS gives this peculiar one be-
| cause il shows that he who had the expe>
ricnce not only has the interests of the
advertisers deep in his mind and cons
science, but the good of the city also, and
! so much is he impressed with his work
| that he dreams about it,
