DREAM OF AMPUTATED LIMBS
Feelings of Thee Who Have Lost
Arm or Leg Can Only Be Cured
byTime.

DR.. Edred forner, the famous
I-Lon2 On sl,rgeoas. beer studying the
dreams of persons who have lost an
arm or leg by amputation, and he re-
ports some Interesting observations to
1.-The Practitioner" II is well known
that after amputation the lost limb is
still felt, at any rate for time, and
such sensations are called phantom
limbs"
DR.. Corner says these are unusual
among the young but frequent among
the older, and they pass away with
time, after eight months or year th@
patient being unconscious of the lost
limb except when he thinks about 1t.
A man who has lost one limb may
dream that he has lost both or that
he has lost the wrong one, or that the
one amputated is still there but seems
awkward or hurts; the dreamer can
not bend the phantom leg or arm or
finds it stiff and heavy.
Badly fitting artificial limbs aggra-
vate the sensations, evidently by irri'
tating the severed nerves. Cold, damp
changes of weather and absence of
occupation for the mind increase the
sensations. The nearer the trunk the
limb has been cut off the worse ART
the pains and the longer they are like
ly to continue.
Sometimes an operation or massage
will cure persistent case, but gener'
ally IL has TO be left to time.

Unconscious Aumor.

The teacher of a third-year class
during a test in written English re-
auested each pupil TO write an original
sentence containing the word "char-
acter." After much thought one little
girl evolved the following: "All the
teachers on the third floor have q good
character" which, doubtless true,
sounded rather hard on the teachers
Of the other floors.
In another school one of the teach
ers occasionally appears wearing one
of the modern straight-effect gowns
confined at the waist by a heavy silken
cord with large tassels. One OF the
boys, writing upon the subject "Our
School" referred TO his teacher in fiat
tering terms, but being unversed in
the artistic as 10 raiment, finished his
paper with the remark, But some
times she comes to school wearing her
