Whittier? Two natures. My soul Gagged
noy-wnat when the door of the cage
Is opened? If my soul can fly so far In
the few hours in which my body is
asleeD i'm the night, how far can it fly
when nv body sleeps the long sleep OF
the graye?" Oh, this power 10 dream,
how startling, how overwhelming. II
prepared for the after-death flight,
what an enchantment! II not pre-
pared for the after-death flight, what a
crushing agony! immortal Immortal!
But have 20 tell you that the major
ity of the dreams are merely the penalty
of outraged digestive organs, and you
nave 20 right 10 mistake the nightmare
for heavenly revelation Late suppers
are warranty deed for bad dreams
Highly-Splced salads at eleven O'Clock at
night, instead Of opening the door
beavenward, open the door internal
and diabOllcal. You outrage natural
lazy. and YOU insult the God who made
those laws. To takes from three TO five
hours 10 digest food, and you have no
right TO keep your digestive organs In
struggle when the rest OF your body is
in sOmnOlence.
THE GENERAL RULE IS
eat nothing after six o'clock at night,
retire al ten, sleep on your right SIDE,
keep the window open five inches for
ventilation, and other worlds will not
disturb YOU much. BY physical NAL
treatment you take the ladder that

cent OF the demOnlaCal. Dreams are
midnight dyspepsia. An unregulated
desire for something TO eat ruined the
race in Paradise, and an unreguated
desire for something TO eat keeps 1t
ruined The world during six thou
sand years has tried in vain to digest
that first apple. The world will
not be evangelical until we get
rid Of a dySpeptic Christianity.
Healthy people do not want
this cadaverOus and sleepy thing
that some people call religion. They
want a rel gon that lives regularly by
day and sleeps sOundly by night. II
through trouble or coming on OF old age
or exhaustion of christian service you
cannot sleep well, then you may expect
from God "SOngs in the night" but
there are no blessed communications to
those who willingly surrender to indi-
Eestbles. NapoeOn'S army at Leipsic,
Dresden and BOrodinO, came near being
DESTROYED through the disturbed gastric
Juices OF its commander. That is the
way you have lost some of your battles.
Another remark l make is that our
dreams are apt to be merely the echo Of
our day thoughts.
will give you a recipe for pleasant
dreams: Fill your days with elevated
thought and unseltiSh action, and your
dreams will be set 70 music. II all day
you are gouglng and grasping and ava
ricious, in your dreams you will see gold
that YOU cannot clutch, and bargains in
which yOn were out-shylocked. II dur

naclous aud gunpowdery Of disposition,
YOU will az night have battle with enc

TOWARD THE DEPOT.
All dreams that make you better are
from God How do know it? Is not
God tho source OF all good? 1t does not
take q very logical mind TO ague that
out. Tertullian and Martin Luther be-
Ifeved in dreams. The dreams OF John
Huss are immortal. st. Augustine, the
Christian father, gives US the fact that
o Carthaginian physician was persuaded
Of the immortality OF the soul by an ar
gument which he heard in dream. The
night before his assassination the wife
OF julius Cesar dreamed that her huS-
band fell dead across her lap. ID is
possible TO prove that God does appear
in dreams 20 warn, 10 convert and TO
save men. My friend, retired sea-
captain and q Christian, tells me that
one night while on the sea he dreamed
that q ships crew were In great suffer
ing. Waking up from his dream, he
put about the ship, tackled In different
directions. surprised everybody on the
vessel - they thought he was going
crazv-sailed on In another direction
hour after hour, and for many hours
until he came 10 the perShing crew and
rescued them, and brought them TO
New York. Who conducted that dream?
The God of the sea.
In 1895, a vessel went out from Spit
head for West India, and ran against
the ledge of rocks called the CasketS.
The vessel went down, but the crew
clambered up on the CasketS, TO die Of
thirst or starvation, as they supposed.
But there was a ship bound for South
ampton that had the captains son on

dreamed that there was a crew OF sail
orS dying on the CasketS. he told his
father OF his dream. The vessel came
down by the CaSkets in time TO find and
20 rescue those poor dying men. Who
conducted that dream? The God Of
the rocks, the God Of the sea.
THE REV. DIR. BUSHNELL
I'm his marvellous book, entitled: "Na-
ture the Supernatural, gives the fol-
lowing fact that he got from Captain
Yount I'm California, q fact con trmed
by many families: Captain Yount
dreamed twice one night that one hun
bred and fifty miles away there was
company Of travellers fast in the snow.
He also saw in the dream, rocks Of pc
culiar formation, and telling his dream
% an old hunter, the hunter said:
"Why, ! remember those rocks; those
rocks are in the Carson Valley Pass, one
hundred and fifty miles away" Captain
YOunt, impelled by bis dream, although
laughed at by his neighbOrS, gathered
men together, took mules and blankets,
and started cut on the expedition, trav-
.eled one hundred and fifty miles saw
those very rocks which he had described
in his dream, aud finding the suffering
ones at the foot OF those rocks, brought
