DREAM THEORIES.
Mental Disease Versus the "Sublimf-
nal Self" Hypothesis.

The great advance in the study Of
dreams, as indeed in psychology gen.
orally, was made by those modern phi,
losophers who discovered that We
could throw light on mental sanity by
means of mental disease. 1t is not
pleasant to think that in dreams we
become more akin to the insane, yet
such is the theory that has been lately
advanced, and which obviously has
good deal to say for itself. Sanity
means precisely the possession of that
will, intelligence and concentration
which prevent us from being victims
of pronIiscuous and disorderly images.
In the visions of the night will, intelli-
gence, powers of discrimination, ar
rangement. attention, all tend to dis
appear We are no longer active; we
are purely passive, undergoing expe-
riences which we cannot control. And
this is precisely the state of those who.
key of intelligent perception, have be-
come hysterical, homeopathic, insane.
Meanwhile, for those who dislike so
ignoble an Interpretation and want
some theory more dignified and high
sounding, there exists that hypothesis
Of the "subltminal SELF" Of which W.
81. Myers and other spiritualists make
SO much use in their interesting vol
umes. One part Of our mental COZ
seriousness is clear. explicit, giving Us
the ordinary materials for each days
experience as 1t comes. Another part
Of consciousness, so we are told, lies
below the threshold. It Is not con-
scious, but subconscious. The records
Of past. half realized experience, the
heritage to us of our forefathert
knowledge or mental habits. the az
cumulated materials Of human inteln-
gence from many periods of history.
form the supposed contents Of this
subliminal self When we are awake
we are using the explicit and conscious
mind; when we sleep or dream we fall
back on the subconscious mind, the
vague, indeterminate region of impress
sions and fancies which serve as an
obscure background to waking life

IORUCG|sTs EvAOE THE Law MARCH OF SkYsCRAPERs
And Buy PoisoRs From th|e
Grocery Dealers

SALEM Ore. June 17-That the law
giving druggises exclusive right to
sell poisons will not be enforced Is
evident from the fact that some of the
druggists have found il. necessary to
purchase their supplies of poison from
grocerynen. They are hardly in po-
sition. therefore, to prosecute the gro
cerymen for selling poison. Some time
ago druggist secured an opinion from
the attorney general, in which it was
held that the pharmacy law of 1907
prohibits the sale of poisons by any
persons except registered pharmacists.
and this was held to apply to sucn
roisons as are used in fruit sprays and
for other agricultural purposes. Agri-
cultural papers pretty generally con-
demned the law for the reason that
the druggists charge a higher price for
poisons than grocerymen and dealers
in AGRICULTURAL supplies are accus-
toned to do. 1t was asserted, now
ever. that the law would be enforced
and that prosecutions would follow II
Others than druggists continued to sell
such commodities ,aS-~afsenate of SOFA,
acetate of lead and paris green. The
grocerymen accepted the challenge and
announced their intention to stay in
the business Since that, time several
druggists have been procuring their
poison supplies from grocerymen. Pos
sibly they have been doing this for the
purpose of securing evidence, but TINS
i not probable, for there has been no
reed to resort to that device. All the
dealers have continued tC sell openly
and have nc fear of prosecution.

Austin. Tex June 17.-With the fill

was vacated and the company will be

the bond Kirby made an affidavit to
being worth more than $4,000, 600 in

The Latest is The M0n0|hh in
New York

NEW YORK, June 17.-So crowded
with tall buildings has the lower end
of Manhattan Island become that the
uptown district is beginning to be
dotted with great steel and stone Of
flee structures. This tendency to turn
the Murray Hill and Tenderloin sec
lions into a district, of offices is called
by some real estate men, 1.-The march
of the skyscrapers."
Until very short time ago a bust
ness concern that needed a suite of
general offices rarely thought of go
ing north of City Hall park in search
of the proper place. 1t is different
now. The Metropolitan Life Insur-
ance company has one Of the largest
office buildings in the world in T wen
ty-third street: at Fifth avenue and
TWentySiXth street the Brunswick
building has been opened to tenants,
and there are many other Office
structures recently finished or about
to be.
Latest and perhaps the most dis
tinctivee is the ~Monolith. in Thirty
fourth street. AS its name indicates
it is built of concrete. 1t is only
about thirty yards from the corner
where, it is said, more people pass in
a day than anywhere else in the world
the corner of Broadway and Sixth
avenue and Thirty fourth street come
together. The Waldorf Astoria hotel
is in the same block and the principal
shops and theaters are almost within
stones throw.
The way in which the floors and
partitions of this concrete building are
constructed of hollow terra Gotta
blocks insures absolute safety from
fire The Monolith is an illustration of
the theory upon which nearly all en-
gineers are now agreed-that con-
crete is a structural material, which,
like steel, has to have supplementary
protection in the way of ire-proofing
This fact was established by the San
Francisco fire.
Not long after that calamity a
prominent member of the American
society of civil engineers, who had
made a personal investigation of
more than so buildings in the burned
district, announced the conclusion
that the building with protecting fire
proof material was superior to all
others. Tests conducted in Chicago.

At present the front of the Monolith
is partly obscured by a mass of scat
folding. In it's unfinished state the
building attracts much attention. and

will come down and the offices will be

The Stars on the Flag.

Oklahoma'S star will be added to the
flag on July 4 next year if the formal
admission of the state to the Union
takes place before that time. The
war and navy departments have agreed
upon the arrangement of the forty-six
stars to accommodate the new one and
to make it easy to add two more when
New Mexico and Arizona are admit
ted. The plan provides for four rows
of eight stars each and two rows Of
seven stars each. The rows Of seven
are the second and the fifth. The rows
Of seven can be made into rows Of
eight when the other territories are adj
rlitted. and the arrangement will then
be absolutely regular.

EXCURSION RATES.
Railroads Offer Inducements to Those

Sale of tickets to the coast summer
resorts is announced to begin on the
18th and ooh of this month, the sai-
continuing until the 25th of August,
with a final return limit on Sept. 80.
The rate on these tickets is the same
as last year on both O. r. & n. and
N. P. lines, $13.75 for the round trip.
The O. R. & N. company an
nounces a further rate of s15.75 for
the round trip to Newport and va
quina bay. These resorts are favored
with reduced rates for the first time
this year and bid fair with these ad-
vantages to become as popular as the
older and better known resorts. The
same sales days and limits hold good
as on the other rates.
