In all such cases the work done j asleep seems better than that done in waking hours; nay there tr no lack of anecdotes which would point to tho pos sibility of persons in au unconscious state accomplishing things beyond their ordinary powers altogether.

Tho delHous fan of Sheridan, fonnd under a tree, and tell ing tho policeman that ho was "Wil-Wil Wilborforce," reveals at once that the wag, if a little exalted, was by no means tchl'y drituk. ^ Sdofc a joke could hardly have occurred to nn unconscious braiu, even one so well accustomed to the pro duction of humor.
