HOW-TRUE •
HOW- VERY
TRUE »
DO YOU DREAM O F S W IM M IN G ?
OME of the scientists go so far as
to attribute dreams of swimming
to an atavistic reminiscence of the
days “ when you were a tadpole and I
was a fish.” _ It is a generally accept
ed theory that all life on this planet
began in the primeval sea from which
the continent afterward emerged; and
scientists declare that rudimentary
gill-silts are not uncommonly found
in man, physical vestiges of our fish
state. So they say, as these gill-slits
linger in our physical structure in our
mental structure there may linger
“ some faint atavistic echo from the
primal sea.”
Freud states that in dreams of
swimming as in those of falling, hov
ering and flying—a general statement
cannot be made as to their signifi
cance— they signify something differ
ent in each case. But he holds it as a
truth that these dreams represent Im
pressions from our earliest childhood
which are seized upon and made use
of by the dream thought. These
dreams of swimming are, as a rule,
very pleasant ones and are classed by
the scientists as among the “ typical”
dreams.
The mystics account a dream of
swimming to be a most favorable
omen, especially if the water of the
sea of dreams is clear and you seem
to swim easily. To dream of swim
ming yourself or even seeing some
one else swimming, prognosticates a
reconciliation #ith a friend with
whom you are now at odds. I f you
Swim along easily with your head well
out of water you will be successful in
love and business; If you are a sailor
a profitable voyage is before you. But
if in your dreams you swim along
with your head under water you will
shortly be called upon to face many
hard struggles. You will win out in
them, however, by keeping “a stiff up
per lip.”

Nature loves neither silences nor

She has her silence and she has her

Yet all the melody that she employs
But serves to make her silence more

The sweeping desert, yellow, bare and

The single quaver of a lonely lute
But makes the night seem nearer to

The sea is silent far from shores un

Save where a ripple tumbles to

As whitened water makes the green

The day is calmer for the bubble's

From such as these I learn the for

It is Its sound unpoisoned with alarm.
