The Dream Of the KEY.

Some small article had been lost-I
forget now what, let us say key-be-
longing to one Of two sisters who were
travelling together. 1t Gould nowhere
he found. But one night one of the sis
ters dreamed that she saw the key In
the pocket Of her travelling bag. She
told this dream on waking to the other.
"And have you looked in the pocket?'
the sister asked. mo, l have not"
said she. "for iile vsly soou reason tll;,t
there Is no pocket in my travelling
bag" "Well." said the other, "there is
a pocket in mine. l will just have a
look there ON the chance" And there
the key was found.
The inference is that the dreamer
had seen with the eye OF sense, though
not with the eye of observation. the
key put into the pocket. Even when the
key was SO found she had no recollec-
tion of seeing it placed there. but the
brain had unconsciously recorded the
sensation. In course of sleep it had
stumbled on that record, and by good
luck tile sleeper on awaking Glanced
10 remember the mental operation that
had taken place during sleep. 1t is a
singular and almost alarming reflection
that our brains are stored with count
less such records of which we know
nothing, nor ever shall know unless the
association of ideas or some peculiar
mental state brings them to our notice.

Skinned Her Alive.

In Russia are house robbers fully as
brutal as those in the United States.
who are accustomed, by fire. knife
and club, 10 torture the aged and Grip
pied in efforts, sometimes vain. to eN-
tract the secret of hidden savings.
In village not far from Bobrova, n
town near Moscow, several robbers,
knowing the proprietor to be absent,
broke into his house, of which the sole
occupant was his mother, 20 years old.
They asked her where the money
was kept, to which she replied that
her son had taken it with him. al
though she was at the moment seated
on chest containing the money.
The robbers beat and kicked her,
knocking out her teeth and breaking
her nose. yet she steadily maintained
that there was no money in the house.
They had just started peeling off her
skin with knife and pricking her
with an awl when the bells of was-
ON were heard. at which the robbers
fed. From that wagon leaped the old
lady's son, who found his mother lying
drenchetf III blood and insensible.-EA-

"Kept il a warm room or by the

only moderately moist, will soon germi-

gcsted to many southern flower lovers
the possibility of making the useful
peanut an ornamental plant for the
parlor or sitting room window.
''As the plant increases in size and
extends it's branches over the sides of
the pot in ii pendent manner. there are
few plants of more intrinsic beauty.
The curious habit of the compound
leaves of closing together, like the
leaves of n book, on the approach of
night or when shower begins to fall
on them is one of the most interesting
habits of plant life.
Later on-for the peanut is no

A Common Fallacy.

1t is a common fallacy that impure
water becomes sterilized at tempera-
ture Of 80 degrees. One OF the most
curious facts about bacteria is that,
while single ray of sunlight will ex-
tinguish the life of innumerable hordes
and while a very moderate increase in
the temperature around them will have
the same effect, they are absolutely un-
injured by any degree of cold.

Suspension Bridges.

There is no doubt that the first idea
of suspension bridge was suggested
to primitive man by the interlacing of
tree branches and parasitical plants
across rivers Probably monkeys used
them before men did. In very noun

Peru. they have apparently been used
since the dawn of history. possibly
