Explanation of Dreams,

Supposing man to have been evolved
from lower and animal type, the in
stincts and impulses of the animal state
would be most potent when, as in sleep,
the watchful inhibitory faculties, the re-
suit Of civilization and development, are
dormant. In other words, the old prim-
tive animal Is waiting close by to come
in and take possession when the evolved
soul has abdicated its function. That
would account for tho fact that we sell
dom have any conscience in our dreams,
and do In them without the shade of a
shadow of conjunction things which all
the wealth and honors of the world could
not induce us to do in our waking hours.
The moral sense seems to be totally
wanting in dream.
That is a theory which does very well
as far as it goes. BUTT does not by any
means cover the ground. In the case Of
real imaginative dreamers, the dreaming
state of ten seems to be superior in point
of intelligence to the waking state; that
is to say, great flights are possible to the
mind then which are beyond the waking
consciousness. Ineffable conceptions,
celestial visions, intense realizations or
recognitions of spiritual things, which
sometimes survive in waking thoughts
and really illuminate them, often fall to
the lot Of the true dreamer. If the
moral sense has no place in such dreams,
it is because the soul seems to have risen
superior to a moral sense! If the animal
hypothesis seems reasonable sometimes,
what are we to do in making up our
theories of dreams with such visions as
these, which rise only when the veil of
flesh Is drawn from before the inward
eye?-Boston Transcript.

5000 PER ANNUM
An AmAfAur.

1t was Saturday evening, and the fam
lily, as they were accustomed on that
day, sat down to meal of baked beans.
The Frenchman, who was guest, was
asked by the hostess: care you fond Of
baked beans, Monsieur du Crapaud7"
"Ah," said the Frenchman, with a
shrug of his shoulders, an inclination Of
his head to one side and raising of his
eyebrows, II do eat ze baked beans, but
am not amateur of zeml"
All the family looked puzzled by this
remark, and little Tommy, who sat at
the foot of the table, could not restrain
his curiosity.
"Oh, Monsieur du Crapaudl" he ex-
claimed, "does that mean that you are
professional baked bean eater?"
Tommy had heard the word amateur
used simply to mark the difference be-
tween those who followed any sport or
occupation for pleasure and those who
followed it to make livelihood out of
it. To him "amateur" had no other
meaning; and if NJ. du Crapaud was not
an "amateur of baked beans" he must
be a professional.
The Frenchman, on the contrary, used
the word as meaning lover of an art or
anything else whatsoever, or one having
special knowledge Of it. To be an anna
teur with him signifed very much the
same thing as what is ordinarily ex-
pressed by the other French word con-
noisseur. If he had said that he twas
not a connoisseur of baked BEANS" he
would not have been understood by
Tommy, perhaps, but he would not have
been so radically misunderstood. -

The Shortcomings of snan

There are probably few people who do
not find the joy of living made less keen
by having to read each day the advertise
ments of popular soaps. Their good
qualities are so superlatively good, their
effect on the complexion, the health and
longevity so unfailing, their chemical
composition i'll each case so remarkably
in accord with all that exact science and
dermatological art could produce, that it
discourages tho medical man, who finds
so much in his own measures that arc
imperfect and incomplete.
We read. therefore, with IL certain
sense of relief the results of an i'll
vestigation made by DR.. b. II. Paul Oh
the composition of these highly laut!ed
toilet soaps. DR.. Paul states that fol-
bodily ablution soaps should not contain
an excess Of alkali but should be neutral
OF nearly SO. He found, however, that
among toilet soaps, as usually met With
perfectly neutral soap is the exception
and that a trustworthy soap of that kim
is still desideratum. Three of iiv,
soaps of the higher grade We're described
as "super-fatted" soaps, one of them be
ing alleged to have been prepared ac
cording to Unna's formula. But, il
fact, they all We're found to contain the
full proportion of alkali required for the
saponification of tho fat, besides some
additional potash, which, in one of them
was considerable. 1t seems, therefore,
that the perfect soap is yet to be made.

Annoyances of tho openhan,,ed.

Frequently have expressed my pity
for rich people. My pity was renewed
when u gentleman said to me: "My wife
and our children are to go abroad next
week" you've only just got back
from Europe" 1 said by way of surprise
and Interrogation. Eyes, but my wife
is just killing herself. Every morning
before we sit down to breakfast there
are from five to q dozen men and women
at the house, telling pitiful stories Of
rent overdue, of hunger, and what not.
My wife can't turn them away with
No; she has neither strength nor time
to investigate each case, and she usu-
ally gives them what they want.
"But she knows that such giving is
bad. She is so hemmed in by this circle
of beggars that she must go to Europe.
It's pretty hard" he added with sigh;
"we'vo been separated but little since
we We're married; but I don't see any
other way than to close the house, and
for them to go to Dresden, and for mo
to go to boarding."
WANTED to tell the generous man that
if he and Mrs. Opcnhand would send the
mendicants to me, would investigate
and report to them, that 1 could save
them several thousand dollars year and
the necessity of going over the ocean to
escape the cry of poverty, but 1 thought
it would seem impertinent, and de-
sisted. But Mr.. and Mrs. Opehand
ought to have strength of will as we'll as
generosity of heart. 1 know that such
generous and unwisc people do moro to
promote poverty than many q secretary
of some associated charities can do to
cure povcrty.-Chicago Advance.

Not to Dc Outdone.

Hospitality is tho crowning virtue Of
the Turk. He would scorn to be thought
behindhand i'll this respect when COM
pared with any other race of men. Mr..
Barkley tells a story in his Bulgaria
Before the War" which proves that the
Turk will not allow himself to be out
done even by any of his countrymen.
A friend of mine was one day shoot
ing i'll the vineyards at Rrstchuk, when
he was stopped by an old Turk and told
that trespassers were not allowed, and
that ho must clear off at once.
My friend turned to comply, but be-
fore leaving said in Turkish, "What
manner of man are you? have shot in
these vineyards for years without a word
being said to me, and today I have passed
over many miles and spoken to many
owners of vineyards, and you are tho
only one who has raised the slightest OBJ
lection. Tho vineyard is yours, and you
have the right to object to my being
here, so shall leave your ground, but l
never received such treatment from an
Osnanli before"
The Turk, who, up to this time, had
been squatting on the ground, jumped
up, and, with marvellous display of ell
ergy, began protesting.
"My good fellow" he cried, "you shall
not say SO! Others have shown you hos
pitality, and / will not be behind them.
Go where you like, eat what you like,
carry away all you like, and all the vine
yard is yours to do as you like with"
The Englishman thanked him, and it
ended in tho two squatting down and
having q feast on grapes together.

Arc Women Careless of Money!

No woman, at least in America, has
any such talent as man has for spend
ing money. She spends for what she
believes to be beauty-for raiment,
books, jewels, decoration, furniture, pic
lures, marbles-rarely for what does her
serious harm. Ho spends most for his
vices, for the things that hurt him great
ly. He is apt to speculate, to bring evil
to others from his love of pleasure or of
gain.
He will get rid Of moro money in a
month than sho would in years. She
would, however ignorant Of it, be ap-
palled by the sums he dissipates. She is
constitutionally conservative; big state
monts Of any sort arc likely to alarm
her. Unless desperate or frenzied, she
invariably stops short of extremes. She
trembles and turns pale where he, in the
flush Of egotism, moves undisturbed.
Nearly all tho talk Of woman's care
lessness of money is really idle. The
opinion cannot besustained. tits main
ly the echo of misapprehension. Where
she is even partially enlightened on the
subject, she is prone to be very cautious
In its use. Her temperamental tendency
is to the opposite of carelessness.-Junius

Do aIortuis Nil Nisi Bonum.

This polite fashion Of saying nothing
but good of tho dead has, like tho dead,
been run into the ground. 1t has done
positive harm to the rising generation.
Men have died who ought to have died
sooner. There was no good i'll them to
speak of, and they have occupied such
prominent places in tho affairs of tho
world that they could not well be left
out Of conversation or history without
making hole in it. The Rev. DR.. Alb.
botts goody-goody histories of great men
for Sunday schools arc of questionable
moral effect. Flo writes up Napoleon
Bonaparte as If he were a saint.
He has sugar coated other unsaint-
ly characters, and made them sweet
and pleasant for the plastic minds of
youth to take. The eulogies of dead
congressman by congressman living arc
full of complimentary matter that would
not have stood a minute on the stump in
Taco of tho opposition. Clergymen are
frequently embarrassed-at the funeral
Of some wealthy but dishonest and i'm
moral pcrson-to know what to say of
tho dead, standing there between the
dead and the living. They might speak
the truth; but that would often offend
the living, and i'll the clergy1nans case
it is tho living that must be considered.

White Lead Injurious.

1t is said that painting floors with any
color containing white lead is injurious,
as it renders the wood soft and less ca
pablo of wear. Other paints without
white lead, such us ochrc, raw umber Or
sienna, are not injurious and can be used
with advantage. Varnish made of dry
ing lead salts is also said to be destruct-
i've, and it is recommended that the DO
rate of manganese should be used to dis
pose the varnish to dry. A receipt for q
good floor varnish is as follows: Take
two pounds of pure white borate of man.
gunese, finely powdered, and addit little
by little to a saucepan containing ten
pounds of linseed oil, which is to be well
stirred and raised to temperature of
800 degs. Fahrenheit. Heat 100 pounds
of linseed oil in boiler till ebullition
takes place, then add to it the first
liquid, increase the heat and allow it to
boil for twenty minutes. Then remove
from the fire and filter the solution
through cotton cloth. The varnish is
then ready for use, two coats of which
may be used with final coat of shellac,
if brilliant polish is required. -Phila-

Heat of the Moon.

A problem of great interest in physics
and astronomy, on which Tyndall, Lord
Roose and Professor Langley labored in
vain, has been solved, and trustworthy
evidence at last been obtained as to the
thermal value of moonlight This has
been accomplished by Mr.. G. V. Boys,
one of the professors at South Kensing-
ton, who, by means of his quartz fla
ments has produced a thermopile Of al
most incredible delicacy. By this ap-
paratus he can render sensible the heat
of a candle up to the distance of mile
and three-quarters, and by directing the
minute disk of the instrument to the
moon he has shown that the warmth re-
ceived from its reflected light is equal to
that given out by a candle at twenty-one
feet distance. The result accords with
the anticipations of Professor Piazzi
Smyth Observations seems to show that.
although the moons face is under the
blaze Of Nh unclouded sun for fourteen
days, it remains comparatively cool, and
that whatever heating it does ultimately
receive is rapidly gained and as rapidly
lost-London Standard.

Waist Deep in Money.

Tom Kelly, the ticket seller of Bar
nuns circus, is as much specialist in
his peculiar line as any, strictly speak
ing, professional man. The whole pro-
cess Of receiving the money, giving the
ticket and making change is done in three
movements with the regularity of clock
work. The ticket window is about four
feet above the bottom of the wagon. Mr.
Kelly sits upon a high stool, with large
sum of money i'll dollars, halves and quar-
ters piled upon the shelf on his right. A
corresponding shelf on the lett is covered
with tickets and half tickets. All this
is arranged before the window is opened.
A line of several hundred impatiently
clamoring people wait outside, Mr.. Kelly
climbs upon his stool, takes a long, deep
breath and opens the window.
Money is received in his right hand
and dropped upon the floor. The thumb
of the left hand has in the meantime
pushed ticket from the pile, and the
right hand has selected, mechanically,
the change and presented it to the pur-
chaser. No attempt is made to pile up
the money received. 1t is literally drop
ped, and when the show commences Mr..
Kelly sits like buoy surrounded by a
sea of money, the crests of whose waves
mount up to and press closely around his
waist and almost on level with the Win
dow ledge. After the performance COM
nences, and no more people want tickets,
Mr.. Kelly closes the window and steps
carefully over this bed of money. Then,
and not till then, is any attempt made to
countand assort this ssum, which amounts
to several thousand dollars in pieces of
all denominations.-New York Press.
