FEAR IS DANGEROUS QUALITY
BY Kindness Alone Can This Be
Eliminated In Domestic Animals
Adds Greatly to Value.
Ry M. ]. KELLY


Fear is a painful emotion or pas
sion, excited by the expectation OF
harm, or the apprehension Of impend-
ing danger. Fear In the mind Of the
wild animal is its greatest life pre-
server. Fear puts It on its guard all
the time against the enemies that
seek to destroy 1t. All wild animals
have their natural enemies and con-
seuuently those that were without
fear long ago became extinct. Fear
then Is their first instinct, and their
wildness comes from this fear. This
instinct is very persistent and very
hard to overcome, and when appar.
emily eradicated, II may spring up
when great harm Is received or ap-
pretended, and quickly become again
the ruling passion. When any ami
NAL, not excepting man, is thoroughly
under the influence of great fear, he
cannot be taught anything; he aban-
dons his accustomed habits, and is
deaf to every voice, and blind to every
sight, and is possessed by only one
mad desire, to- run, to nee. To do
this he will break all bounds, or leap
into any abyss.
Fear is the one passion In the mind
Of the domestic animal which must
never be aroused, II you would al
WAYS have him to be perfectly safe.
Fortunately by domestication this In
stinct has very nearly become extinct,
or at most It Is only rudimentary In
most Of our farm animals. Their
young. II the mother has been kindly
treated, are born without fear. The
young colt WIN at FIRST 90 fearlessly
mn TO anything or any one, win poke
his nose into anyone's face inquiring
who be is. The young calf, as soon
az he Is on his legs, win nose around
anything he sees, without any idea Of
danger; the young pig win do like
wise, so will the young mule. Now
II no harm comes to him In this first
hour Of his exploration Of the big
world, he has fne prospect for q
docIle, happy life, and II there Is no
change during the first day, nor the
next. and II these experiences can BE
continued for a week, and II his mas
ter who now is strong enough to put
the youngster wherever be wishes
him to be. handled him gently and
kindly and talks to him In gentle
tones, even gives him some baby

other hand, q the youngster meets
the switch Of the tan Of some un-
friendly animal. or a kick. or is

MORE THAN TWO
THOUSAND PEOPLE
SEE COOPER DAILY

During Z. =. Cooper's recent stay IN
Boston, It is estimated that slxty-ivs
thousand people talked with him and
purchased his medicine. This is an
average Of over two thousand q day.
His success 10 so phenomenal as to-
cause universal comment both by the
public and the press. There must be Q
reason for this. Here is the reason
given in his own words by Mr.. Cooper
when interviewed on the subject. He
said:
"The immense numbers Of people
who are calling on me here in Boston
is not unusual. I have had the same
experience for the past two years
wherever / have gone. The reason 10
q simple one. Il Is because my medi.
cine puts the stomach in good condI.
ton. This does not sound unusual,
but It Is in fact the key to health.
The stomach is the very foundation Of
life. ! attribute 80 per cent. Of all
sickness directly to the stomach.
Neither animals nor men can re-
main well with poor digestive ap-
paratus. Few can be sick with a diges.
ton in perfect condition. As a matter
Of fact, most men and women today
are half-sick. II is because too much
food and too little exercise have grad.
ually forced the stomach into a half
sick condition. My medicine gets the
stomach back where It was, and that
is all that is necessary"
Among Boston people who are
staunch believers in Mr.. Coopar's
theory, is Mr.. Frank D. Brown, Of 81
Bloomingdale street. Chelsea, Mass.
He says:
For five years I have sought relief
for indigestion, stomach trouble and
dyspepsia, spending nearly all my
wages with doctors and obtaining no
results. had dull pains across my
back, radiating to the shoulders.
had splitting headaches, which nothing
seemed to cure. There was q gnaw.
ing and rumbling in my stomach and
bowels. was troubled with vertigo
and dizziness, and at times almost
overcome by drowsiness.
II felt tired and worn out all the
time, my sleep was not refreshing, and
would get up in the morning feeling
as weary as when went to bed. My
appetite was variable-ravenous at
times, then again nauseated at the
sight Of food. Sometimes my face
was pale, at other times flushed. l
was c0nstipated and bilious, and had
catarrhal affection In nose and throat,
which caused me to hawk and spit q
great deal, especially in the morning.
