One of the most intelligent inmates
of a blind asylum. who came into the
world blind. says that he never dreams
of the things he has read about and
never dreams Of any thing or person
TINT he has not In some way come In
personal contact with. He dreams OF
music. of the voices OF persons he
knows. OF such incidents as might
happen at the home or IN some place
In which he has actually been. but
never of incidents in other places or In
other lands. Even although he has
read descriptions Of localities. OF nat
ural beauties. Of the appearance OF a
street or a city. no idea Of what they
look like comes to him I'm the fancies
of his sleep. There Is class OF blind
people who become blind when quite
young. Such blind people never dream
of any scene or object except those
which have remained In the memory
from what they actually saw before
they became blind. .-Pearson's Weekly.
