Explanation OF Dreams,

Surprising 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 the 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 theory which does very well
as far as it goes. But it 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 moral sensel 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.
