HEALED BY DOCTOR DREAM.

VISIONS THAT HAVE LEAD TO CURES.

There tire quite a number of wellrecorded eases to prove that remarkable cures' have sometimes been wrought through dreams. Mr Simpson, in his unique eullec--1 ion of dreams with a purpose, qttolos the case of Jane Cottera!, a poor woman, who was afflicted with cancer in its most painful form. Being given tip as uncmrable by her doctor, she was in. despair, when she dreamed one night that she saw a man who gave her something that brought about an almost instantaneous cure.

On awakening she was so.impressed that she visited the house she had seen in her sleep, found (he man, and, using the proscription he recommended, got rid of the disease completely.

Another extraordinary case was narrated by the late* Bishop Hall. There was living in Cornwall some years ago a man who was so badly crippled in his legs, the sinews of which had contracted, that for sixteen years tie could only move about by propelling himself with his hands. Dreaming one night he had been to wash in the famous miracle well of St. Maderne. and that he had been cured, he resolved on waking to put his dream lo the lesl. He made the journey to St. Maderne, with the result that he was completely cured of Itis lameness.

Partial blindness, too, has been cured through tin* medium of a dream. A hoy dreamed three nights in succession (hat if lie stood on a certain bridge at Prague tit midnight he would see someone who would work a miracle for him. The youth went to the bridge, and, after waiting for hours, was coming away disappointed, when he met a man who inquired why he had been standing there mi long gazing at everyone who passed by. The youth explained, whereupon the stranger announced himself as Professor Polonisky, it well T knowti surgeon in Vienna, and expressed a desire to experiment on the youth's (■yes. The result was that a wonderful operation was performed with absolute success.
