Wk ,Y WE WREAM
(By 11, Addington Bruce, in Toronto
Star)
From time to time I receive let-
ters of inquiry regarding dreams.
Most of the writers of these letters
seek light on specific dreams that
have puzzled them. But also I re-
ceive ehquiries as to the meaning
of dreams in general.
And recently a question was put
to me which a great many people
have askedthemselves-namely, the
question, "Why' do we have dreams at
all?"
In answering the question scien-
tists used to be content with call-
ing attention to the connection be-
tween dreams and physical condi-
tions experienced by the sleeper -
sensations of heat, of cold, of pres-
sure, etc. •>

they would say, is a
while asleep, experi-
ences some sensation which disturbs
him -such as a sensation of cold,
due to a current of air from an
open window blowing on his foot,
which has become exposed by the
slipping of his bedclothes.
The sensation reaches his brain,
and prompts him to attempt to ac-
count for what he feels. If he were
awake he could readily and correct-
ly do so. But, being asleep, with
his consciousness to a considerable
degree limited, he is obliged to in-
vent an explanation. This explan-
ation is his dream.
Undoubtedly this answer to the
question of why we dream is cor-
rect as far as it goes. But it does
not go far enough,
It does not explain why similiar
sensations of heat, of cold, or of
pressure gives rise to strikingly dif-
ferent dreams in different persons.
This phase of the question must also
be taken into account.
And taking it into account, an
Austrian psychologist, Prof.. Sig-
mund Freud,' has made certain dis-
coveries which enable us to answer
our question more definitely than
ever before.
Prof. Freud has found that there
is an emotional element in every
dream. Also he has found that our
dreams, no matter how trivial they
seem, always relate to ideas and de-
sires which for one reason or anoth-
er are displeasing us.
These ideas and desires, because
they are displeasing, we put out of
mind and try to repress. We do
not like to think of them, we wish
to forget them.
We can do this well enough when
we are awake. But in sleep, with
our consciousness off guard, the
case is different.
Then the repressed ideas corne
surging upward, to reassert them-
selves and make us think of them.
The physical sensations which we
experience in sleep give them their
chance by causing our mind to be-
come partially active.
But, fortunately, a certain repressive
power still is at work. If the displeas-
ing ideas and desires did completely
emerge into consciousness they would
be so painful that they would awaken
us. Therefore, things are so arranged
that they can emerge only in a disguised
often fanastic and quite unrecognizable
form.
On this view, that is to say dreaming
is a protective device to enable us to
continue sleeping.
Sometimes, to be sure, the mechanism
works badly. The repressed ideas are
too strong to be denied. What happens
then is that our dream itself becomes
so disturbing that we awake in order to
escape from it, as in the case of night-
mares.
This theory of Freud's, it must be
added, has been criticized. Personally,
I believe there are one or two types of
dream-like the so-called telephathic
dream -to which it does not apply.
But it has been borne out time and
again by psychological analysis of
dreams.
In instance after instance it has been
proved that dreams do have a hidden
meaning that accords with the Freudian
theory -that, in fine, they do relate to
She ideas and desires distressing some-
times repellant, in character.

"It is with great pleasure that I
write to tell you of the wonderful
benefit I have received from taking
`Fruit-a-tives' . For years I was a dreadful
sufferer from Constipation and Head-
aches, anal was miserable in every way.
Nothing in the way of medicines
seemed to help me. Then I finally
tried `Fruit-a-tives' and the effect was
splendid. After taking one box, Ifeel
like a new person and I am deeply
thankful to have relief from those
sickening Headaches".

SHEEP PROTECTION ACT
THE FRENOH NOME
There the Servant is Like a Mem-
her of the Family.
IMPORTANCE OF THE NURSE.
She Is the Real and Rational Ruler of
the Turbulent Children Who, as a
General Rule, Are Spoiled by Their
Too Indulgent Parents.
The French people have not, so far,
produced a spiritually servile class.
The occupation most dangerous to the
soul -that of personal service -has not
resulted for the people of France in
tlunkyism on the one hand and su-
perior airs 'on the other.
There is something in the poise and
motion of French working girls, in
their fearless eyes and vibrant voices,
that suggests a fluid and mobile social
structure which deepens the impres-
sion of rigidity in the life across the
channel and beyond the Rhine. French
people of the more favored classes are
never heard bemoaning the decay of a
"proper" servant class. On the con-
trary, if you speak to them of the
striking contrast between the French
proletariat and that of other countries
-theirs so natural and gay, the others
so humble or so sullen or both -they
instantly expand with pride. "Exact-
ly!" they exclaim. "Our brave French
people! Just as good as monsieur, as
madame, but also no betterl"
The status of the French domestic
derives in part at least from the weight '
of responsibility under which she
serves. For her mistress is neither a
careless housekeeper nor an indifferent
mother. It is precisely because the
Frenchwoman loves her children so ar-
dently, so romantically, one might say,
and because her quick, intelligent grasp
of material situations makes her an
excellent economist at home that she
requires and establishes in the house-
hold not a common servant, not a
"mother's helper," but a woman of in-
telligence and character, a woman oft-
en young and untried, but with the
true ring, who is or soon becomes ca-
pable of assuming direct responsibility
for the care of the children and the
house -a woman who deserves and re-
ceives the consideration due to the
head of an important department in
the management of the family life.
French children are notoriously spoil-
ed. The little monarchs are kept on a
pedestal well into the age of moral re-
sponsibil::y. . rather, mother, all the
older relatives, vie with one another in
admiring and indulging them. With
this understanding of the term and
scope of the child's autocratic reign,
one can afford to laugh at turbulent
scenes in which he puts to rout every
adult in the house except his bonne.
At the mere sight of her the little des-
perado begins to quiet down. He is in
the presence of the only person who
has, so far, exercised any rational au-
thority over him, the person before
whom he feels the beginnings of shame
at doing wrong.
The bonne is the most important per-
son in the family group, so far as its
material well being is concerned. And
morally, spiritually, she is a true mem-
ber of the family. It is not for nothing
that the word "bonne" means "good"
as well as "nurse."
It may be that the prevailing good
relation between masters and servants
in France has a very simple explana-
tion -simple and yet profound. It may
be that it springs at bottom from the
warm affections of the people. They
cannot live without love and senti-
ment. Better than any other people
they know how to keep alive the ro-
mance of friendship, of love and even
of that inherently bad relation, master
and slave.
The French servant who has no fam-
ily ties -and often the one who has -
throws her whole heart and soul into
the family life of her master and mis-
tress.
She must love -she must serve -she
must be loved. And the French master
and mistress understand. Each one
ddenlires the sentiments of the other.
1n a word, the romance of the situa-
tion grips them all. French literature
is crowded with examples of mistress
and servant whose intimacy shows no
trace of condescension on the one side
or of servility on the others. -J. Fran-
ces Cooke
At the Last session of the Provincial
Legislature the Sheep Protection Act
was changed to permit the full payment
of damage instead of two-thirds, as
formerly. The Act will now read as
follows; "The owner of any sheep
killed or injured by any dog, the owner
of which is not known, may within three
months after the killing or injury apply
to the council of the municipality in
which the sheep was so killed or injured,
compensation for the injury; and if the
council is satisfied that he has made
diligent search and quiry to ascertain
the owner or keeper of such dog, and
that he cannot be found they shall
award the grieved party for compensa-
tion a sum equal to the amount of dam-
age sustained by him: and the treasurer
of the municipality shall pay over to
him the amount so awarded.'

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the nucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal
condition,hearing will be
destroyed forever; nide cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the nucous
surfaces.

GAS ENGINE DONT'S.
In order to assist the user in prevent-
ing most of the common gasoline engine
troubles, it might be well first to list a
number of things that should not be
done.
Don't put gasoline into the tank
without straining it through a chamois;
there may be water in the gasoline, or
some sediment that would clog up the
carburetor or mixing valve.
Don't handle gasoline by the light of
a lantern or other open Light. If you
have no electric light where the tank is
located, never fill it except by daylight.
Don't attempt to run an engine with-
out providing sufficient lubrication.
Don't over -oil the engine. Just
enough in the right place is better than
a quart.
Don't use common black oil on small
bearings. Such oil is not suited to the
purpose.
Don't get oil or grease on the wires
of the battery circuit; it will rain the
insulation.
Don't hold a spark plug wire more
than 3 inch away from the engine with
the current turned an, when testing
There is danger of ruining the spark
coil.
Don't throw away a spark plug unless
it is broken. A spark plug does not
wear out, and the only attention it re-
quires is usually nothing more than
grinding,
Don't screw a spark plug on too
tight. It may "bake" fast. Graphite,
if available, should be used on the
ea
thxs, d
Don't throw away any batteries in
Winter until you have tried thawing
them out. Often_they are only con-
gealed or frozen up.
Dent leave the battery switch closed
when the engine is not running
The Postmaster's Association of Can-
ada gave $6,000 to the 'Canadian
Patriotic, $1,000 more than last year.
THE floors and doors appear to waifuntil the dust germs con;
gregate; the housewife hails each dawning day with grim and
harrowing dismay, Says she "My work will NEVER end:'.
o'er dusty stretches I must bend, until, with aching back and hands
I finish what the day demands."
Then Mrs. Jones, one afternoon, drop-
ped in, at time most opportune. An.
optimist, she knew the wiles of house•
hold work -its sighs and smiles. She
told of how she polished floors and wood-
work and the endless doors,'until when Hubby saw them, too,.
reflections said: "Why, howdy -do!"
"The Gold Dust Twins," said she, "I find, help leave the woes
of dust behind. Each mark of sticky hands on doors, each tread of
muddy feet on floors, all fade before
i. the slightest touch of Gold Dust, and
the work is such that, when the
woodwork has been done, I find
k said work was only fun." This
line of reasoning must show that
those who've tried
it OUGHT to
know. "'If you, in one day's duties,
find that there's a Grouch in ev'ry
Grind, invite the Gold Dust Twins
to share such tasks as tire and
fret and wear.
From kitchen floor to bedroom suite, these tireless little chaps make
neat, and best of all, the sum expense is measured up in meager cents.
They put both dust and, dirt to rout and run the last old microbe out.
Don't leave the gasoline turned on
when the engine is not running.

Art at Home.
Believe me, if we want art to begin
at home, as it must, we must clear our
houses of troublesome superfluities
that are forever in our way, conven-
tional comforts that are not real com-
forts and do but make work for serv-
ants and doctors. If you want a gold-
en rule that will fit everybody this is
it: "Have nothing in your houses that
yon do not know to be useful or believe
to be beautiful." -William Morris.
A Precious Mosaic.
For ages upon ages happiness has
been represented as a huge precious
Stone -impossible to find and which
people seek for hopelessly. It is not

bf a thousand little stones, which sep-
arately and of themselves have little
Value, but which united with art form
a graeefnl design. -Mme. de Girardin.
