The prospective recruit must flrst pass

ture Into Ills service the opportu
nities for accidents increase as
the dangers of the Uon tamer increase
with the number of beasts he takes
Into the cage. In former days we
avoided contact with those power*
hlle they now, so to speak, belong to
our domestic animals. Apd thus It
happens that though we have become
more peaceable and careful we, often-
er than our forefathers, look death In
the face. It Is more than likely that
many among those who read these
lines have had the thoughts and been
the poiltlon to make similar ob
servations.
On. of tho flrst question* which
forces Itself upon us, I* that of pre
monition, foreboding. Do wo. ae maay
Insist, In the morning have a forefeel
ing of an accident which Is to befall
us during the day?
It Is difficult to answer this ques
tion ns our experience can only be
founded on accidents which havs been
narrowly avoided or at least have not
had serious consequences. It l» only
natural to suppose that minor acci
dents do not stir up our natural In
stinct veryWnuch beforehand or do not
and It understands It and nt the criti
cal moment It will show that It knows
even more about them than our mind
which created them.
And, therefore, no matter how new
or how terrible the Instrument, one may
say that there are, In principle, no In
evitable catastrophe*.
The unconscious solf Is always In
formed and able to cope with all sit
uations, but wo have no longer all the
same right to count upon its prompt
action. It never dies, vanishes or falls;
hut many of us have banished It Into
such depths and allow It so seldom to
see the light of day, we have so com
pletely lost eight of It, have chained
and gagged It so hard that we no long
er know where to find It In an emer
gency. We have physically not time
to alarm or to unchain It and, when It
at last arrive*, full of courage and eag
er to light. It Is too late. The accident
has already happened, death has fin
ished hi* work. '
This Is shown In nearly every acci
dent. Expose two automoblllsts to the

ing this point. Is very uncertain nnd
the qutstlon remain* an open one.
We start out some morning In au
tomobiles, on bicycle, motorcycle,
steamboat or train—all powerful fac
tors In accidents. Let u* ‘ think of
something definite, suppose that It Is In
an automobile or motorcycle. Sud
denly and without any apparent rea
son, at a turn of the road or even In
the middle of n wide and straight rood,
left or right, death appears, seize* the
brake or the handlebar#, changes the
direction and bare our way with a
wall, a tree or a rock and grins Into our
faces unexpected, monstrous. Insvlta-
It closes the horizon of llte and
leave* no escape.
Immediately a passionate, bitter fight
which last* perhaps half a minute, be
gins between our reason and our In'
sllnct. The action of our Intelligence,
reason, or whatever we choose to call
is very Interesting. It Judges quick-
.. and logically that all Is lost, but In
spite Of that It Is- neither paralyzed
nor zcared. It pictures clearly the ac
cident and Its results In detail, ami
e feel proud that we are not afraid.
Betwen collision and fall It ha* a
short space of time, in which It rinds
time to dream, to hope that escape I#
still possible and even to think of other
things, to call up memories to put to-
S ether facts and to make clear and
Istlnct observations. ,
The tree, It see* before death, Is a
sycamore, It has three holes in H*
trunk. It Is not a* beautiful a* the one
In the park. The rock against which
our head Is to be crushed ha* veins of
mica and marble. It feel* that It I* not
responsible, that It Is not to be blamed,
It smile* and even feel* a **":
satlon. It awaits the "evitable with
calm resignation unmlnglsd
wonderful curiosity.
It Is beyond doubt that If our life
were dependent only on this too logical
spectator almost every accident would
become a catastrophe, but luckily an
other factor appear* on the seen#
called to life by our nerves, that vi
brate ungulded by the brain and cry
like scared .children, a mess-grown,
naked, brutal and muscular being that
upsets everything and seise* at any
possibility at hand. It is called our
Instinct, our unconscious power. Where
was It, from where did It come? It
was asleep eomewhere or was occupied
with dark and mystic work In the
primitive depth* of our being. It ws*
once the all-powerful mistress, but of
late It ha* been pushed aside and
dethroned like a poor relative who
lacks training and good manners, an
unpleasant reminder of our primitive
origin. - .
only In the Insane moments of ex
treme angutxh we think of It and seek
Us assistance. Happily, It I* brave
and ha* no thought of revenge or self'
ishneaa. It well knows that all the
beautiful qualities for the sake of
which It I* dcsidsed are vain nnd su
