Mark Twain was always interested in those psychic phenomena which we call dreams. His own sleep fancies were likely to be vivid, and it was his habit to recall them and to find interest, and sometimes amusement, in their detail. In the story which follows he set down, and not without some fidelity to circumstance - dream circumstance - a phase of what we call recurrent dreams. - Albert Bigelow Paine; 8vo; 14-20 pages.
