Dreams Warn of Disease
~ n. ApplNcroN BRUCE
<Author OF The Riddle Of Personality"
"rsychology and Parenthocd." etc-)

Dreams are not the haphazard products Of
imagination that they seem to be.
On the contrary. every dream has definite
meaning. which may be of great practical sig
nificance to the dreamer.
So true is this that today some Of the wisest
Of physicians are recording and analyzing their
patients dreams. In this way they often get
information throwing helpful light on the
maladies they have to treat
Especially in this the case with functional
nervous and mental disorders
These usually are caused by distressing emo
tional experiences which have been forgotten
BY the patient but which have to be recalled
by him before he can be cured.
For this purpose the study Of his dreams IL
OF great usefulness. Experience has shown
that no matter how completely the disease-caus-
ing shock has slipped out OF his conscious mem
Org. ii Is always subconsciously remembered by
him. In his sleep these subconscious memories
reveal themselves through his dreams
Sometimes he dreams OF them exactly as they
have occurred More often they are present
only indirectly But they always color his
dreams in such o fashion that their presence
and significance can be readily grasped by the
In another most important way dreams have
medical value.
There are certain organic diseases. which In
their early stages occasionally give rise to re-
current dreams localizing definitely the part
affected
For example. II a man II suffering from IN
Intestinal disorder, he may. long before he sus-
poets that anything IL wrong have series OF
dreams in which q cat is clawing. or mouse
gnawing. his stomach.
Or II he has any kind OF growth in his throa,,
his first inkng OF trouble may come through
frequently repeated dreams In which an enemy
Is choking him
There Is nothing occult In dreams like these.
They due simply to the fact that during
sleep internal sensations. too slight to be per-
ceived when awake. are clearly felt. The dream
is the effort of the sleeping consciousness to
interpret them
Unfortunately. similar sensations do not al
ways cause similar dreams Nor when similar
dreams do come, do they always point unmis-
takably TO the organ that Is diseased
This, however. does not affect the fact that
svery one who does have recurrent dreams, es-
,ec'slIv ~ Of unpleasant character will do
we'll 10 have a thorough medical examination
made.
The dreams in question may have a wholly
harmless origin. in which case the medical ex-
animation will be OF reassuring value On the
other hand they may be found 10 Indicate the
presence of conditions which, unless treated
AZ once. may have serious consequences.
Then indeed the warning OF the dream will
have meant much TO the dreamer who acted

A Great Chance Presented
to This Hesitating Governor

The Georgia prison commission has
passed the buck to the governor in the
Frank case and in its report has sue
ceeded in conveying the impression that
in the minds of two of the board, at
least. to commute his punishment would
be to thwart proper sentence.
In the face of the wording of the re-
port, and the extreme public sentiment
still alive in Georgia, the executive who
is hardy enough TO extend clemency will
probably sign his own political death
warrant.
The report of the board, from this
distance, looks like cowardly attempt
on the part of the majority members to
square themselves with the maddened
voters at the expense of the states
executive.
Governor Slaton is afforded an excel
lent opportunity of getting from unHer
by granting temporary stay. thus pass
ing it on his successor.
On the other hand, he is given a
chance to do worthy and noble act such
as is seldom the lot of man--an act that
will cause his name to live in the men,
DRY of the better people of Georgia and
the annals of justice, long after these
judges have been forgotten.

Potato Rings for War

At the Red Cross auction in Lon
don the other day two silver potato
rings were sold which had pathetic
history. This item figured In the
'cataiog: An Irish potato ring. with
trellis work and circular panels OF
scroll foliage, by Richard William
Dublin, 1774." The next lot contain
ed a similar article. These two po-
tato rings (circular stands for hold
ing potato dishes) belonged to Sam.

Flying corps. He met nis death In
Egypt In the service of his country.
and his parents In loving memory
presented these relics to the cause
Of relieving the suffering. IOrd

ring. Tho auctioneer said: Lord
Newlands intends to restore these
rings to the father and mother Of
Lieut.. CockereIl, and he also wishes
10 pay q tribute 10 the worth Of
