Caught Cold in a Dream.

Dreams are always interesting, sometimes Intensely ho, but one that actually resulted in something and left some tangible trace was Indeed novel. “You know,” she said, "that I have Just returned from my old home from a visit to old friends, and the familiar scenes may have been responsible for the dream. At any rate, in my dream I saw the lightning and heard the thunder, and realized that a storm was ap- | proaching. Then raindrops began to | fall. The rainfall became heavier at every instant, until I thought that there I had been a cloudburst. All this I saw In my dream. “Then suddenly, and still dreaming, I ' heard a crash and thought that the limb of an apple tree, heavily loaded I with fruit, had broken, nnd I could see the luscious fruit lying on the ground, i 1 imagined that I hastily arose and ran | !to gather the fruit. I remember that I j threw a light wrap about me, but 1 was drenched.” 1 She of the cold stopped, nnd one of her auditors turned with a look of disappointment. “I don’t see unythtng extraordinary In that," she said, “Oh, but let me finish. The dream was so vivid that I nwoke startled. ' And, what do you think— couldn’t talk. 1 had such nn awful cold that my voice was temjiorflrtly lost.”
