able to tell what color it was. The
only hues remembered are the in
variable ones, like the green of trees

might be any color are usually no
color at all. The author attempts no

THEORIES OF DREAMS.
Peculiarities Noted But Not Yet Scien-
tifcally Explained.

"There is no modern theory about
Dreams" said a New Orleans physi-
clan, cor, rather, there are five or six,
and they differ so radically both in
premises and conclusions as to leave
the subject more of a mystery than
ever. 1t is undeniable, however, that
the psychologists have collected an
immense amount Of valuable data,
which, Of course, is the first step to-
ward arriving at solution. Many Of
the things they have noted are re-
markable, and | find several enumer-
ated in the last issue of a French med
ical monthly. 1t is said, for instance,
that one can dream Of any given OBJ
ject by thinking about it intently for
four or five hours before retiring, and
then dismissing it from the mind. 1t
should be something unusual or fan

handkerchief tightly around the fore
arm and leaving it on when one goes

They had not long to wait. Dolly
