Don't Let Your Ambition Cool. Tho idea acorns to be pretty gen oral that ambition is born In us, that wo have little or nothing to do with Its acquisition or cultivation, and that we cannot modify, enlarge, stimulate or Improvo It to any great extent. A study of life does not confirm tho Idea. That the ambition is a cultivatnblc quality, capable of being molded or destroyed according as we will, demonstrated every day in the lives of thoso about us. We see people In whom tho spark of ambition Is kin dled suddenly by the reading of a book, tho hearing of a lecture or the sneaking of a kindly word by a friend or teacher, and, on the othor hand, we see those who allow their ambi tion slowly to die out for want of fuel. The death of ambition Is one of the tragedies of life. When a young man* feels his ambition begin to fade there is trouble aomowhore. Either ho Is In tho wrong environment and fits fac ulties protest against what he la try ing to do, or aomo vicious habit is draining his energy, or his health is poor, or he Is being led Into dissipa tion by bad companions. A youth w hoso ambition begins to wano Is pot in a normal condition. When ho Is not stimulated by a nobio purpose, and filled with a desire to become a ntrong man among men, there Is some thing wrong somewhere.—Success. Poisons In Food.

Practical Poultry Hints. A broody hen spoils a fertile egg for table purposes by sitting on it for a few hours only, so collect your eggs regularly. Vinegar diluted In warm water is the best liquid to clean stained eggs. Brown-shelled eggs are no richer than white ones, but thoso who prefer tinted shells shpuld immerse their eggs for an hour in strong tea water. Preserve your eggs in water glass when the market price is less than fifteen for a shilling. Tho egg yield from ten or twelve henH ranging over an acre of grass land will far more than pay the rent of lt and so leave the herbage rent free to your dairy stock. Fowls much Improve the character of the stubble land over which they range. Feed your fowls upon clean ground, not upon muddy yards and roadways, where much is. trodden under foot. Don’t forget tho Importance of dis tributing your fowls over vour land In small flocks of twenty or thirty head, rather than crowding too many together. It is early-hatched chickens that come on to lay during tho following autumn and winter, when eggs are scarce and dear. Replace one-third of your laying hens every year, so as to keep your stock young. Feed and kill off your cockerels when about four months old. Don’t forget the importance of feeding young chickens early, late and often; and dry food is far bet ter than moist, such as crushed grain, stale bread and coarse buscult meal. Feed up your chickens for a week or ten days before marketing them. Skinny, half-fed fowls never fetch a remunerative price. Early spring and summer chickens always command a far better price than months later. Deaf Are Never Seasick. “Strange thing, but ti'o you know that deaf persons can never get sea sick?' said an old surgetra In the em ploy of one of the local frans-Atlantlc lines recently. “This was found out, he said, “when a whole class of deaf routes went abroad some years ago, and, despite a particularly rough pas sage, none of them wanted to lie on the deck and beg somebody to heave them overboard. 4' “That’s the seasick feeling, you know. A little inveatlgatlon proved that the stomach nerves are mostly controlled by those of the ear, aad that deaf persons are not nearly liable to the nausea that comes from the rolling motion of a ship as are others. “The experiment of saturating ball of cotton with cocaine and thus dulling the hearing has been tried by ship surgeons since.
