Experience in Dreams.
There are some very remarkable tilings
about dreams. In the first place they are
twice as real as reality. Did you ever
fall down stairs in dreams? If you have,
you must have observed that it is a much
more terrible experience than falling
down stairs when you are awake—except
that you don’t have the bruises to nurse
afterward. But the mental experience
of falling down stairs in a dream is some¬
thing awful. -Cleveland Leader.
