Dreams Of Vain Effort.
BY H. ADDINGTON BRUCE.
Copyright. 1881
POP.

Dreams of frustrated effort are
among the most interesting of the
so-called typical dreams. Also they
are among the most puzzling.
In these dreams the dreamer is
trying desperately to do something
which he continually fails to accom-
plish. Time after time he tries. al
ways in vain.
Dreaming. for example. that he is
about to start on journey. he finds
1t impossible to get his suit case
packed. Always some necessary ar
is kept feverishiy hunting for it.
Or perhaps he has difaculty in
dressing. His coat simply will not
let itself be buttoned: he seems to
have lost the knack of adjusting his
necktie.
Sometimes his dream takes the
form Of long series of queer ad-
ventures. This is what happened to
me the other night in an uncommon
dream Of frustrated effort.
In my dream ] was trying to go
to an ONCE in New York skyscraper::
in an elevator for the once, which
was on the twelfth floor.
Then my troubles began. For an
entire afternoon, as it seemed In the
dream. was journeying up and down
in elevators. Repeatedly 1 stepped
out Of them. but never at the right
floor.
Every ONCE 1 entered was the
wrong one. and in each had singu-
lar experiences. some pleasant. some
annoying. In the end I awoke with
out having reached my destination
and feeling as tired as though 1 had
actually been on the move all night.
How account for dreams like this?
Recently the theory has been ad-
vanced that they are due to the alb
sence Of certain bodily sensations of
movement ordinarily present in the
sleeper's waking life.
The sleeper. that Is to say, starts
to dream Of going somewhere or do
ing something. But, his sleep being
light, he is vaguely aware that he is
not actually moving to the accom-
plishment Of the end in view.
Mental confusion results. giving the
dream its Whimsical form of a dream
Of perpetually frustrated effort.
Against this theory Is the interest
Ing circumstance that most dreams
at any rate. dreams which are vividly
Observation-Disclosures occur during
slight sleep. Yet the element Of frus-
trated effort appears in only a COM
paratively few dreams.
Other factors must be taken into
account. The most important of these
appears to be the state Of the dream
er's mind before he goes to sleep.
There usually is present-there GER
tafnly was present in the case of my
own dream-a condition of some de-
gree Of mental tenseness and anxiety.
A decision Is to be made, or an action
taken, the outcome of which Is un-
certain.
AS a consequence. a conscious or
subconscious wish is formed that the
decision or action be postponed. This
wish finds symbolica1 realization in
sleep. through the dream of frustrat-
ed effort.
The dreamer. in other words. is in
state not so much Of mental con-
fusion as of mental conflict. Out Of
this conflict come both the dream
and the feeling Of exhaustion on
awakening.
Such. 1t seems to me. is the prob
able explanation of these strange
dreams. Partly due. no doubt, to un-
usual physical conditions, their origin
must also be sought in unusual con-
ditions of the mind.
