horse. The trouble is We are not onto the curves Of buffalo 'bustin',' but we'll learn.''
 Next day the other bull was roped again and hitched to buggy. The Ponca Indians had heard of what was going on and came in numbers to see the fun. In the days when the plains were covered with buffaloes no Ponca ever tried to tame one and they shook their heads and chattered among them selves, believing that Miller was at tempting the impossible. By careful handling, to avoid angering the buffalo too greatly, he was driven short dis tances. An Indian climbed into the buggy with Miller, and other Ponca men and women slapped their sides and laughed at the sight. This buffalo survived the drive, but left Miller un- certain as to whether or not, without spending a. small fortune, he will be able to drive a buffalo team along the highways of Oklahoma by next sum mer. In a letter to Miller. Charles Goodnight said that he believed is pos sible to tame buffalo to drive if one with the right temperament can be found, but the losses ill experiment would be too great to make the un- dertaking profitable.

QUEER WORLD OF SLEEP.

The Dream That Came True and the
 Dream That May Stop a Robbery.
 Two stories which have reached me of curious dreams should interest the Psychical Research Society.
 The first, which comes in immediate evidence, concerns novelist and a Well-known London stage-manager who have been for long close friends. The former dreamed that the latter came to him with his neck bandaged and an expression of extreme, agony on his face. He pointed to his bandaged neck and tried to speak but failed. The the author woke up, and, strongly impressed by the Vividness of his dream, related it in the morning to his brother, saying, Tt gave the im- pression that S------ had been hanged. !" During the morning he telephoned to his friends house, and was told that he had been in bed for two days and was seriously ill through an accident, He hurried off to see him, and on en- terlng his bedroom found S sit ting up in bed with his neck swathed in bandages. It appeared that during rehearsal he had strained his neck and had been in great pain ever since. This was striking enough, but there was more to come. for afterwards he said to S's wife, You know I hur- riedsround because I had dream that S had been hanged. That's most extraordinary, was the reply, because the doctor said he had very nearly dislocatted his neck in exactly the same manner that occurs when people are hanged.
 The other story, which comes at se- cond hand, is more striking still. A
 lady living in Londcn recently engaged l q man and his wife as housekeeper and butler. She engaged them without having seen the man, as he was ir l temporary work in the country, but she was so satisfied with the char acters produced and the woman's .ap- pearanee that she decided to take the
 risk. A few nights after the house
 keeper had taken up her duties thS
 lady dreamed that she was lying awake in her bed and saw man al | her dressing table, with her jeWel-case open before him. picking the stones ] out of their settings with a small in.
 strument He turned his face severa' l times toward the bed, and laughed I to himself She woke up and trieC to dismiss the recollection of thu
 dream from her mind, but the impress

IS COLLEGE LIFE HARMFUL TO 5- GTRISq


 The question whether they consider ed that college had done them any harm elieited some amusing answers. Five in this connection said they had been made more critical 'particu- larly more critical in my judgement of men," one added; one confessed to be- ing more intense:" one said she was more neryons;'' one said more sell fish and independent" i"
 College makes a girl too honorablei9 was the remarkable answer of a pessi- mistic soul. Its handicap. I know a girl whose mother sent her to col lege, hoping to make a success of her. The daughter came back with such exaggerated ideas of honor that they initiated against her success socially. Her disappointed mother saw stenog- raphers and tradesmen's daughters making brilliant marriages, while her daughter remained single. Isn't their some way to reconcile disappointed mothers like this to the college? Must the college be always q training school for teachers, settlement workers and the wives of missionaries and minis ters?',
 My highest ambition when entered college was to get married" wrote three Wellesley aIumnae an answer that brought out a shout of amusement from Dr. Gul;ck and the one other man in the audience One of these three candid individuals added, "and to get married to one particular man, too, Seven wanted to be teachers. Not a single case was recorded where an old Wellesley girl would not ad- wise her friends to go to college, or have her daughter go. if she had one.

that it haunted her through the day. The next night she dreamed exactly the same dream. On the afternoon following she was relating the matter to a caller when the housekeeper en- tered and said her husband had ar rived and would she care to see him. Apologizing to her guest for the inter ruption, the lady said he could come up. The man entered the room, his new mistress looked at him, and gave loud exclamation, for it was, I need hardly say, the man of the dream. Curiously enough, the lady has abso- lutely refused to dismiss the man, be- cause she is a skeptic in such matters. and if anything is to happen, she says, she would like to see it through. She now sleeps with 9 telephone at her bedside, and has locked up every jewel in a safe. Her friends are eagerly awaiting the sequel.-M Manchester CEng.) Guardian.
