SURE THAT ANIMALS DREAM
Eminent Authorities Have Gone On
Record, Though II Has Been T.
Subject Of Dispute. -.

-
Aristotle's history, Of animals de-
>clares that horses, oxen, sheep, goats,
dogs and all viviparous quadrupeds
dream. Pliny,, IN his natural history
specifies the same animals. Buf1on
describes the dreams Of animals: Mac
nish calls attention to the fact that
horses neigh and rear. in their sleep,
and afirms that cows and sheep, es-
pecially at the period Of rearing their
young, dream.
. Darwin, in the descent Of Man,"
says that dogs, cats, horses and
,psebablys aH:.the higher animals, even
birds, as is stated on good authority,
have vivid dreams, and this is shown
by their movements and7-voice."
J. George John Ronanes, in his Men
tai, Evolution In Animals" says that
the fact that dogs dream is proven
bal, and quotes Seneca and ,Lucretius,
and furnishes proof from DR.. Lauder
Lindsay, an eminent, authority, that
horses dream. Bcchstein holds that
the bullinch dreams. and gives a case
where the dream took on the char
acter of a, nightmare and the bird fell
from its-perch, and four great author
tiles say that dreaming becomes so
vivid as to lead to somnambulism.
Guer gives case Of somnambulistic
watch dog which prowled in search
Of imaginary strangers or fowls, and
exhibited toward them whole series
of pantomimic actions, including
barking. Dryden says: 'The little
birds III dreams the songs repeat"

BOOTS NOW AND LONG AGO
Some Difference In the Price Of
Pumps and the First Real =.
. ,,.s.;s>.I: Copper.Toed Pair.

= Do you remember your first pair OF
boots, with the copper toes; bright
and shiny, proof that you were a real
fellow, asks Charles e. Hunt in the
Seattle Post Intelligencer. And the
red leather tops? And do you recall
that you had not, yet learned to dis
tinguish the right from the left foot
and went back to Shoemaker Condor
to get him to show. you? Z ~
And didn't he punch a hole in the
red top Of the right one, by which you
were to know that went on the right
foot1 IT, ~
What happened in the school yard
that first morning you appeared with
the boots on? Didn't Kitten Smith
with full knowledge of his advantage
according to the rules Of the game
walk up and deliberately "Put-too"
right across the shiny copper toe, and
didn't your trusted chum Butch Ma
gee do the same. And while4yOu were
playing pun, pun, pull-away" and
before the last bell rang didn't every
boy in the school yard spit on your
boots to break 'em in. as they called
it, Hadn't every Teller before you
stood for it? And seeing as how you
were the proud owner Of the only pair
of new boots with copper toes in the
whole school couldn't you afford to
let them show their envy2
And have you forgotten the heavy,
damp snow and the first day when
you went sliding down hill and catch
ing on bobsleds and got your feet
wet7 And how the new boots pulled
of hard and mother put them under
the kitchen stove to dry7
And next morning when you tried
to put them on? And how you pulled
and suffered and the skin seemed to
be peeling of your feet In layers1
But you get them a, didn't youf Do
you remember how every inch Of skin
shrisked out your agony ~ you
walked to school and your drawn ace
