dreams. " is an oft repeated bit of advice.
yet it is probable that few persons do
things in their dreams that are more
foolish than some things they do when
they are wide awake.
Il had very singular dream last
night" said a boarder as he came down
to breakfast one morning Il dreamed
that 1 was a spectator at one of those
peculiar Institutions known as cake
walks. | was the molly white man pres
ent, and was enjoying the novel sensation
of watching for the first time a process
sion of gorgeously arrayed couples making
the circuit of a large room in the most
stately and imposing style imaginable,
when suddenly the master of ceremonies
saw me. took me by the arm. led me TO
the center of the hall. called a halt, and
the entire assembly gathered about me
and began to jabber in an unknown Ian
guage.
.'All at once began to grow tall. / felt
myself rapidly expanding in an upward
direction.
The crowd at my feet seemed 10 dwin-
die. My head pushed it's way through the
ceiling. then through the roof, and prob
ably it would have bumped agaioes the
moon in another minute if l hadn't walked
up. 1t was a narrow escape"
And you saw and did all LIS a a cake
walk. did you?" asked one of the regular
boarders.
Yes. that's what l said"
'Humphss What had you eaten for sup
PERI"
Nothing but plate of buckwfeat
cakes
That explains it, What you saw in
your dream was Observation-Disclosures

KLoNDYKE.


In the regions of ice and snow.
Many a pilgrim is trudging today.
With a head full of hope and shouting:
''Yo-ho
For Klondyke,''
Over the mountains, beyond the plains.
Where the great river winds to the sea,
Many 2 pioneer jingles his gains.
And sings in a frenzied ecstasy
In Klondyke,
Thousands and thousands of miles away,
In the land of the polar bear,
Many a man is digging today,
Only to find that there's nothing there
In klondyken3
Many husband. many son.
And many a father too;
Many man who is dear to someone
Is climbing the glaciers leading through
To Klondyke
Many mother and many wife
And many one that is dear
Is dreaming today of happier life
And hopefully waiting TO hear
From Klondyke,
And thousands and thousands of golden
hopes
And many a dream that is fair,
Are destined to die on the frozen slopes
And find their graves out there
In Klondyke.
