. / FEAR IS A GOOD THING. Dne of the Potent Factors For the Pro taction of Life. Without the instinct of fear □cither man nor ammal would sur vive. But of ioui ’ m ' tins fear must bo a right and reasonable fear—the anticipation of p.un or destruction. The knowledge that certain con ditions must bo avoided if one is to suruve brings* liar when these con ditions are present or probabli ; hence fear causes one to protect Dneself, so that the man or ammal tvho rightly fears may live liis allot- led time. As an illustration, the coyote is a wily anur.al and gets his food by stealth. He has learned the power and tricks of man— he fears him. Before starting to hunt his prey, rabbits, quail and other birds, he carefully snuffs and sniffs around to get the scent of man or dog. He bides m bushes and among rocks to peer for his enemies. lie has learn ed to fear traps and pitfalls and now seldom falls into them. But he has not learned to fear flying things overhead because they never killed or caught him. An aeroplane means nothing to luni, and as he cannot scent a man over head, unfeanng, he trots along, aft er knowing all on the ground and around him is clear of enemies. So he is now being hunted and shot by men m aeroplanes. If any of his tribe remain experience will bring fear of aeroplanes, and until some neTPer motto cl is devised I. Tie covoto will survive. So you see, iu sense of rightful fear, fear is a great educator. Fear does not mean cowardice or timidity. It means intelligence. It is not emotion m the strict sense of this term. Strong emotions para- hze fear, frequently the muscles and in extreme eases the heart. li> this latter eniuhliou wo say the per son “died frmi fright.” Fear and 1 fright are not the same states— quite the contrary. Koar is the only and also the .greatest factor in making medical ; progress. The fear of shock fol- j lowing surgical operations has caus- j ed methods to bo discovered which j will eliminate or decrease shocks. | The woman who fears to trust her- ?elf in the hands of an unknown surgeon or one with a dubious repu tation has a right sense of fear. On the other hand, one 'who will not, under the best circumstances, submit to a nccessary operation is possessed of fright cowardice. When cholera or any other fear ful epidemic appears the fear that it will spread causes every true doc tor to pitch in aud prevent its i spreading. The fear of this is great J and anxietv is constant. The state | of mrad which causes people to Hoe I their friends or a doi tor to flee li ~ ! duty is a fright from cowardice.— j Dr. William Lee Howard in Xr-v | Who Was the Bridesmaid?

Livonia Light and Heat Company “I say, Jim.\ said Hilly Otter to liis friend. Janies Andrews, \I wish you'd help rue out iu a matter that s liable to give me serious trouble.\ “W h a t is It, Billy V “Well, you know I liiivo been atten tive to Stella Monroe.” “Most confoundedly attentive.’’ re plied Jim . “I've often thought that you were,a bit sweet on Stella. I have lately swapped girls aud am engaged to Marian Truesdale. Stella has become jealous and declares that I have asked her to marry me. If I don’t she says she will make a big fuss. Now, I don’t believe she cares a rap for me. She’s like a dog in the manger—if she can't get me she doesn't wish any one else to have me. I want you to play spoons to her and draw her off.” “Well, now, I like that. You propose to use me to pull your chestnuts out of the flrc. .\'ot much. You fellows who don’t think anything of being sweet on two or three girls at the same time must take your medicine wheu the time comes. Sorry 1 enn't help you out.\ Billy sighed and turned away. lie therefore did not see an amused look on his friend's face. .Iim had also been attentive to MNs Monroe when Billy had met her mid, not know ing of his friend's demotion, Hilly l.iade tlie same love to her that he did to every girl The Livonia Meat Market and Grocery pecial Prices For this Week Friday and Saturday Jan. 7th and 8th.

Not long after the above conversa tion Jim went to Billy and. with a very serious countenance, said to him: “Billy, as your friend I feel in duty bound to tell you that Stella Monroe is getting ready to bring suit against you for broach of promise of mar riage.” “Where did you hear that?” asked Billy, paling. “Her lawyer Is a particular frieud of mine.\ Billy looked very much broken up. “W h at are you going to do—tight it?” “I don’t know what to do.\ replied Billy. “If I go back on Marian there’ll be a monkey aud parrot time.\ There was a long sileuce. after which Jim said: “Neither of those girls wants your money. They simply want to punish you for playing them both at the same time. I thluk that if you settle on one the other will let you alone.\ “If I settle on either it will be Stella^' A t this Jim looked serious. \You have antagonized Stella to such an ex tent that I doubt if she would have you now. Besides, I understand that she has gone too far with her proposed suit to back out—that is, so long as she doesn't strike any one else in striking you. Better tie up with Marian \ Billy said he would consider the matter, and his friend left him. Tho same evening Billy went to see Marian. It was always the last girl he was with who enchained him lie told Marian how he was situated and sug gested that the only way he could bo saved from a breach of promise suit was for her to marry him. Since she wanted him very much she was only too glad to save him in that particular way. A few days later Jim hurried into Billy’s room before Billy was out of bed and announced that service was to lie made on him that morning in the breach of promi-e suit Billy slams' up wildly “What in thunder am 1 to do'-' lie asked. \The only way out of It Hint I tan see is for you to lie married .it on e .•mil jump ilio (own \ A fter smne I.ilk Hilly tailed up Mi--.

Conesus, Jan. 0. *** Iceland's Hot Springs. The hot springs ui l!e\kjiulul, though not the most magnil.ee nt, ! are perhaps the most curious among 1 tho numerous phenomena of Una sort in Iceland. On entering the 1 valley you sec columns of vapor as cending from different parts of it. There are a number of apertures 111 [a sort of platform of rock. The water is 212 degrees F., and it rises 1 two or three feet into the tnr. A river flows through the valley, 111 the midst of which a jet of boiling water issues with violence from n rock raised but a few feet above the ice cold water of the river. Not far from this is the grotto or cave of Surt, which is so large that no one has penetrated to its inner e n d . _______________ A Printor1* Blunder.
