Perhaps the most amazing crime
mystery ever solved by q dream was
that revealed by a murder trial cou-
pie OF generations ago. The dead body
OF Mr.. Norway, an inoffensiEe Cornish
gentleman, had been found by the
roadside between Wadebridge and
Bodmin brutally murdered. No trace
Of the murderer could be found, and
the mystery Of the crime seemed be-
yond all solution when Mr.. Norway's
brother a naval officer, arrived in
England and told the following story:
On the very night Of his brothers muir
der. when he was on his ship In the
West Indies. he saw him in a dream
walking along the Bodmin road. when
from dark recess IN the hedge two
rufians sprang out. slew and robbed
him and then made their way to q
house In wadebridge. which he saw
wildly IN his dream. To this house
he conducted the police officers. and
there he found the very two men
whom In his vision he had seen com
NIT the murder. They confessed and
suffered the extreme penalty OF tina
law.-London Answers.

Pierre Lott. the French author, al

French poet who had been advocating
a return to the simple life decided one
day to make the acquaintance OF Lott.
He left his village, he who never trav-
els, stick In hand. to make the jour
ney 70 Hendaye, the home Of Lott, on
foot. BE prayed the celebrated novel;
ist to receive him without ceremony;
that he should be satisfied with q
bowl Of milk for his repast
But be was much astonlshed when
the novelist took him at his word. In
the dining room on a table without
cloth or napkin there was only an Inn
mense crock Of milk.
The visitor showed some hesitation
about beginning the feast. Meanwhile
his host began to walk around the
room like q bear 10 cage, only inter-
rupting his walk from time to time to
take a long swig Of milk from the
crock. without saying word the host
invited the astonished guest to initiate
him.
The man Of the simple life had found
one more simple than himself. and be
left the house convinced that the great
novelist had become crazy.
