In a recently published Volume,
Dreams and Their Meanings" the fol-
lowing story is told: "a certain lady
dreamed frequently OF q certain house
until 1t had become exceedingly ia
millar to her. She knew all Its rooms,
Its furniture. II was as well known 10
her as that in which she lived her wax
ing life, and like good wife that has
no secrets from her husband. she often
talked over all the details with him
very pleasant fancy. One day hus-
band and wife went into the country
TO see a house that they thought Of
taking for the summer months. They
had not seen ii, but the account in the
house agents list had attracted them.
When they arrived before II they gave
simultaneous exclamation OF sur
prise. Why said the husband, It Is
your dream housed II was. The coin
cidence attracted them. They took the
house. In the course Of their occu-
Fancy they learned that the house had
the reputation OF being haunted; that
several people before them had taken
It for short terms. but had seen-or
fancied they had something
and had left before their term OF ten
ancy expired. Had these new tenants
not brought their own old servants
with them II is likely they would have
had some difficulty In whipping up a
domestic stan. SO uncanny was the rep
utation Of their apparently quite re-
putable house. The new tenants dwelt

that We were disappointed in about
the house Is that we never saw the
ghost

knew you would not see the ghost

wife. rather nettled.
"'Oh.' the agent repeated. we knew
