SUCH STUFF AS DREAMS ARE MADE OF

Extract from Henri Bergsons Explanation of the
Mechanism of Dreaming }
1t is memories and only memories which weave
the of dreams.
All that have felt, perceived, thought wiled
from the first awakening of our consciousness sur
wives indestructiDly.
These memories, perceivng that have raised the
trap door which has kept them beneath the floor OF
consciousness, arise from the depths.
Memory images like the steam in a boiler
under more less tension
If dream about events of the same day II IS
the most insignificant facts, and not the most i'm
portant, which have the best chance of reappearing.
Sounds do play in dreams so important
a role colors. Our dreams are, above all, VISUAL
and visual than think.
In a dream we become, doubt, Indifferent to
logic, but incapable of logic. There are dreams
when with correctness and even with
subtlety. l might almost say, at the risk of seem
ing paradoxical, that the mistake of the dreamer
is in reasoning too much.
To explore the most secret depths of the uncon-
scous labor in the subsoil of consciousness, that
will be the principal task of psychology IN the CEN
fury which is opening. do not doubt that WONDER
full discoveries await it there as important perhaps
have been in the preceding centuries the ois-
coveries of the physical and natural sciences.

MOUNTED A RUNAWAY HORSE

BY eaping from his own horse to the back OF d
runaway Mounted Policeman Roland saved a num-
Der of pedestrians along the Bride Path in Centra
Park from serious injury the other day. The runa-
way horse was tearing through group OF riders
after another when the agile policeman rode MN
down. Scores of women and children figured in the
narrow escapes.
The runaway started when the animal SHE'D at
some passing object and threw his rider. He had
covered a distance of about five blocks before Ro-
land could overhaul him. The policeman at first
tried to reach the flying reins by leaning out from
his saddle but finding this mpractcable and know
ing that every minute imperiling the lives OF
dozens of persons, he decided and accomplished
his spectacular feat.
He only landed upright and safe in the
saddle of the runaway, but managed to hold the
reins Of his own horse and ultimately to master
both of them.-New York Telegram.

golden may leave you any day, and ycu'l sit sweat
ing in vain regretting the dough you fooled away
Salt down the plumber. you will bunder so bad
that all your days with melancholy you'll view your
folly, bewail your spending craze. If you have
rhno, the people know, you will lift the hat;
but respects you, the world rejects you, if
busted flat. How sweet and mellow to every
fellow is life's decline # he is loaded with
uncorroded douboons, put down in brine How
bleak and dreary and sad and weary, is age to one
who's broke, who sits and hollers about the dollars
