A Later Day.
A man awoke from a long dream Of
night and fear, Of passion, pain, and
death, and opened eyes whose vision
seemed curiously clear. to realize a
new world, very unlike that in which
the incoherent action Of his dream had
moyed-a world Of light and lively
air, as sweet and wholesome as
glistening white paint, sunshine, and
an abundance Of pure, cool air could
render 1t.
Because he had known these things
in a former existence, he understood
that he lay in the lower berth Of a
first-cabin stateroom. aboard an ocean
steamship; a spacious, bright box Of
room, through whose open ports
swayed brilliant shafts Of temperate
sunlight, together with great gusts of
the salt sweet breath Of the open sea.

''What?" The two men exclaimed as
