Dear Ann Landers,
y husband started having lifelike dreams about six weeks ago. Arnold woke up exhausted, said he dreamed he had swum the English Channel with Johnny Weissmuller. He couldn't go to work until noon. A few weeks later he woke up in a cold sweat. He said he had dreamed he was a captain under General Custer and the Indians had given him a very rough time. Arnold had the shakes so bad at break-fast that I called the doctor. He sent over some tranquilizing pills. This morning my husband woke up in great pain. He had dreamed he broke his leg scuba-diving. He limped around all day and couldn't get his shoe on, so he didn't go to work. Ten times I said to him, "Look, Arnold, you know it was a dream, don't you? So if it didn't actually happen, how come your leg hurts?" He replied, "Your guess is as good as mine." Please tell me what to do.-Mrs. L.J.G.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, I used to clear my throat to get the attention of my in-laws. I didn’t want to call them Mom and Dad, or Mother and Father, and I wouldn’t have dared to call them by their first names. When I did use “Mom” and “Dad,” I was very uncomfortable, even though I liked them both a great deal. But they were not my parents, and I kept searching (without success) for a name that would identify them properly and show love as well. Now, we have a son-in-law who calls my husband and me by our first names and another son-in-law who calls us “Mr. and Mrs.” We are not happy with either. The first is too chummy, and the second is too formal. ANN LANIIFIIS Every in-law we have talked to feels as we do except a few people who don’t mind being called by their first names. Do you have a solu-tion to this age-old dilemma? -Nameless and Placeless
