A Natural Remedx.

That the remedy is sometimes worse
than the disease is again shown by an
incident chronicled in the New York
Times. A prominent politician has a
wife who is a model of domestic care
fulness. She has a talent for making
bread, and takes great pride in having
her loaves turn out well.
One evening she had set the batch Of
dough to rise in the kitchen and was
reading in the parlor, when her 6-year-
old boy came running to her, crying,
Mamma, mamma, there's mouse
jumped into your bread-pan"
The GOOD woman sprang from her
seat.

frantically.

MAKING A DREAM USEFUL.
All the Waking Hours Should Be
Spent in Profitable Pursuits.

Spent in Profitable Pursuits.
A. e. Gibson presents an exhaustive
analysis of the physical and psychical
basis of dreams. He sums up his
views in part as follows: To sum up
the argument, dream and waking diff
fer in degree and form Of manifesto
tion only, not in principle and essence.
Like waking consciousness, dream re-
veals, but does not create. The same
world that surrounds the waking in
dividual surrounds the dreaming, only
the viewpoints and media of observa-
tioD are changed.
AS the life experience of an individ-
ual in his waking consciousness re-
oeives its character and value by and
through his power Of response to en-
vironment, SO in similar way the
value of a dream depends upon the
power of the ego to respond to- con-
seriousness in its various forms of emo
ticns, ideas and feelings which consti-
tute the environments of the subject
I've or dream plane. Waking or dream
ing the individual is, or becomes, what
he chooses to be at any given moment
Of his existence.
The background for ordinary dreams
consists of undigested remnants Of
waking life. Hence ordinary dreams
are merely undigested life, being made
up by longings, desires, anticipations,
idle hopes and miscarried realizattons,
which, occupying the mind during the
day, are overtaken by sleep before hav-
ing reached their fruition. Hence the
mixture, in most dreams, Of the sane
and the insane, Of truth and delusion.
On the other hand, the life lived out
and lssimilated in purposeful exist
ence becomes absorbed in the forma.
ton Of character and leaves no residue
to form the bizarre staging for the
confused dream. And to such an in
dividual the intuitions Of dream life,
with their dazzling imagery, will in
troduce symbols which, properly inter-
preted, may carry the significance of
provision or prophecy. Therefore, 20
turn dreams into useful, intelligent
and ineligible factors we must fill
our waking life with deeds and
thoughts of universal usefulness and
freight the train of events with an un.
flinching devotion to duty and virtue

SPIDERS ARE MALIGNED.
Their Bites Are Said to Be Far Less
Dangerous than Is Supposed,

Their Bites Are Said to Be Far Less
Dangerous than Is Supposed.
When in doubt. charge it to a spider.
That slight creature, says the Brook
lyn Eagle, has been held responsible
Tor deaths and illnesses wherewith it
had nothing more to do than the
United States has to do with brigand-
age in Morocco. Yet the familiar
newspaper announcement, KILLED by
SPIDER" is before us again, and we
read how the suffering Mrs. Wilson, Of
Knoxville, died in twenty-four hours
as a result Of spider bite, her body
being swollen to twice its normal size
before she regained consciousness.
If we are to believe the entomolog-
lcal authorities in Washington, who
are paid by the government to know,
we have only one kind of spider that
is really poisonous enough to hurt,
and that is little fellow marked with
red and black, and not all black, as
the Knoxville alarmists declare. Until
last year the total number of deaths
actually traceable to spider bites in
this country was one. Possibly it may
now be enlarged by two.
We cling to our superstitions and
that of the deadliness of spider
venom Is one Of them. A spider has
enough Of this acrid chemical to kill a
fly when the web is not strong enough
to hold it. but the human subject has
on various occaslons-Sometimes with
out knowing it-been subject to her
surgery without other result than an
irritation considerably less than is in
ficted by mosquito. When death
results from so slight cause 1t does
not signify that the spider is danger
Gus. 1t means that the subject was
in so perilous a condition of health
that pin scratch would have served
as well to end life as the SPIDER s
triding wound has done.
Not many years ago the tarantula
was regarded as sure and sudden
death. The southwestern miner who
turned in without, his boots and found
that half a dozen of these giant
spiders had got into bed before him
made his will on becoming cognizant
of this fact. Now he merely brushes
them off, uses a little language and
goes to sleep again. Even the rattle
snake has his apologists.
And it is well to know these facts,
not merely because we permit some
useful animals to live who are doing
their share to rid us of insect pests,
but because we can amble about the
world with freer mind than our faith
ers could who suspected death in
every moving form to which they
were not accustomed. The spider has
killed, we will say, two out Of the
many millions of human creatures that
have inhabited this country, and has
destroyed countless hosts Of flies and
mosquitoes, bearers Of germs which,
but for her interference, might have
poisoned 100000 of us. Observe the
spider, then, with equanimity. She
will not harm enough to hurt.
