Medical Hints.

Ifa man faints place him flat on his back and let him alone.
 If any poison is swallowed, drink instantly half glass of cool water, with a heaping teaspoon ful each of common salt and ground mustard stirred into it; this vomits as soon as it reaches the stomach; but for fear some of the poison might remain, swallow the whites of one or two raw eggs, or drink cup full of strong cof- fee, these two being antidotes for . greater number of poisons than any dozen other articles known, with the advantage of their being always at hand; if not, . pint of sweet oil, or lamp oil, or drip pings" or melted butter or lard, are good substitutes, especially if they vomit quickly.
 The best thing to stop the bleeding of . moderate cut instant ly, is to cover it we'll with cobweb, -four and salt, half and half.
 If the blood comes from wound by jets or spurts, be spry, or the man may die in . few min utes, because the artery is sever ed; tie . handkerchief closely around near the part between the wound and the heart; put . stick between the handkerchief and the skin, and twist it around until the blood ceases to flow; keep it there until the doctor comes; If in . position where the handker- chief cannot be used, press the thumb on . spot near the wound, between the wound and the heart; increase the pressure until the bleeding ceases, but do not lessen the pressure an instant before the physician arrives, % as to glue up the wound by coagulation or cool ing of the hardening blood.

Ambition.

A love for activity, a desire to excel and to gain 2 position in the world are commendable. They who bless the race elevate man, inspire him with true cour- age, soften the in,ihrations of our being and increase mental and moral power, arc the true heroes and heroines. They are the bcne- factors of the world. who leave it better for having lived in it. But he who encourages cruelty and de lights in blood, either on the field of battle or in the retired wayside is the native and true ruffian. He who kills, as prompted by a love of glory CD, is not less MURDERER than he who steals stcalthily on his victim to gratify an uncomfortable hate, while the enormity of the crime must be graduated by the number of lives sacrificcd-the injury sustained. He who robs nation of it's wealth destroys it's material growth, abridges it's peace, happiness, it's prosperity, it's mind, muscle and morals by war is not less a robber than he who takes the private purse and then kills. The more guilty one is, he whose depradations are on the most ex- tensive scale. Music, gay tinsely and dazzling accoutrements can never change the real nature of crime. To murder is to .nalic
 iously take life. The alore lives taken, the greater the tnrpitude the deeper the ciminality. To rob is to take wealth-material. mental or moral-ruthlessly. while the more extensive the scale the more robbery is committed.
 Since the creation of the world. fourteen thousand millions of hu. man beings have fallen in the battles which man has waged against his fellow creature-man. If this amazing number of men were to hold each other by the hand, at arms length, they would extend over fourteen millions, five hundred and eighty-three thousand, three hundred and thirty three miles of ground, and would encircle the globe, on which we dwell, eos times If we allow the weight of a man to be, on . average, one cwt., (and that is below the mark), we shall find that 6,250,OO0 tons of human flesh have been mangled, disfigured, gashed and trampled under foot. The calculation will appear more striking when we state, that if only the forefincers of every one of those fourteen thousand millions of human be- ings were laid in straight line, they would reach more than 800
 900 miles beyond the moon; and that if person were to under.
