A DREAM WITH A MORAL

To the Editoi. rpSn;rln T V>' Of W>at a recently wrote regarding dreams, I venture to narrate a most extraordinary dream I had the other night I revious to retiring rumors of a British i reverse had come through. I seemed !to be in a crowd of he-spectacled gentry, answering questions. .The first portion of the dream I cannot recall; tne hrst Question I remember being put to me was where our dairy produce went to. Naturally. I replied England.. This I thought was decidedly simple, and after the laughter mv answer evoked had somewhat subsided. I was asked which market we supported in return. Although this appeared to b s an insolent question nevertheless I replied "the British," which was anain treated to uncalled tor hilarity. At this moment one of my questioners drew me to the window, saving, "Look here!" But all 1 could see was a string o f motor lorries three laden with" cheese, one with butter, and several with general merchandise. The- were benzinedriven vehicles, I could easily see for the name was well advertised on the hoods, although for some unaccountable reason the painter had only painted half of the word benzine. My keepers hurried me on in the wake of the lorries, asking me questions about cheese, butter, Eltham, Manaia district, which at present I cannot remember. The topic turned to shareholders, and I recollect giving numbers, etc.. when we turned a corner, and saw that the lorries had got into difficulties, .and there were regiments of our shareholders helping the owners j of these benzine lorries out of the mud. One of our questioners lit his pipe «nd watched, and the last thing I remember was picking up the piece of paper he had used for a spill, and reading :

"Dealing with the Germans: "A proclamation by the Kintr notifies that British subjects who, during the state of war now existing, contribute to or participate in or assist in the floating of any loan raised on behalf of the German Emperor or advance money to or enter into any contract or dealings whatsoever with the said Emperor or his Government (save vpon the King's command), or otherwise aid, abet, or assist the 6aid Emperor or Government, will be liable to be apprehended and dealt with as traitors, and will be , proceeded against with tho utmost rigor of the law." R.S.V.P. Hawera. August 10, 1911

In ail the fashionable resorts of Paris one finds beautifully dressed and graceful women who owe the basis of their '"otyle" to Royal Rustless P.D.
