KEYS TO SUCCESS.
MIR. Edward Box, Editor of the Ladies' Home
Journal, Tells Young Men How
Success is Won.

Every young man wants to succeed.
There is nothing SO self-satisfying as the
bountiful rewards which await the man
who struggles and conquers. Fame,
honor, wealth and power are the laurels
which Success bestows.
The present century is replete with
examples of young men, who, alone and

MY SHIP FROM SPAIN;

Have YOU not seen on distant seas.
Somewhere, q glimpse @! stranger sail
Perchance when evening shadows fell,
And misty clouds presaged the night,
Uplltted, on some crested wave,
Then slipping slowly irom the sight?
My ship should have sheen of gold,
And Silken sails like bridal train,
And bear perfume. family sweet,
vi roses on the hills OF Spain.
Youth promised me .onc years ago
This ship would sometime come to me,
And bear its lade OF wealth and fame,
From distant lands beyond the sea.

1t may have sough; this port in vain,
And IN some unknown harnor lie,
And idly fret its rusting chain.
Meanwhile. I've beat the anviPs face,
And felt the heated furnace blast.
And wealth of Drawn and honest toll
Into life's circling currents cast.
I've climbed the headland morn anG .
To scan the dark horizon line,
To catch glimpse far far at sea,
Of this belated ship OF mine.
Full threescore years have fed away,
And still patient watch and wait;
Ny whitening hair and feeble steps
Suggest that it may come too late.
For what is wealth to him who dies,
Or honor in the hour Of pain!
The Lethe for the i'll of wears
Was never borne BY ships from Spain.

Chicken Rearing In England.

About nine years ago, when r. Fl.
Rev wrote an account of the Sussex
chicken rearing and cramming industry
for the royal commission on agricul-
ture, the profits were highly satisfac-
tory. But it appears that through this
and other public notices those who
were engaged in it and comparatively
few, have been followed by great
number Of imitators. The examining
system has been extended to many
counties beyond Sussex and Surrey,
and the special advantages Of monop-
oily have been lost. Accordingly the
profits of the poultry-cramming busi-
ness have been greatly reduced and
not a few, of those engaged in it have
been constrained to give it up. The
rcarers have not suffered equally, al
though they have had to accept lower
prices than they obtained for chickens
of the right size for fattening a few
years ago. When it was first announced
that rearers obtained IS. Cd. each for
chickens ten to twelve weeks old, out
sders imagined that to produce the
birds must be highly remunerative,
and so it would be if such price lasted
all through the season. AS matter
of fact. however, it is paid for only a
few weeks, and then for chickens

Influence Of Advertising.

In q restaurant some men were dis
cussing the great quantity of cereal ad-
vertisements that have appeared in the
newspapers during the past year. They
wondered if these advertisements had
had any great effect on the public.
One of them said: "Well, I confess.
they have started me to eating cereal
for breakfast-a thing never used to
do" Two others said the same thing.
They numbered five, and three Of the
five had been converted to the break
fast-food habit through newspaper al-
vertising. The waiter was then called
over and he was asked if he had no.

They Lunch Daintily.

IF we depended on the women who
come in here for their midday lunch
con we would not sell piece Of meat
once in a week." said the proprietor of
a restaurant on lower Broadway. I'VE
have a great many women patrons,
but unless they are accompanied by
male escorts their orders are entirely
different from those of men. A woman
seldom orders sandwich, and rs for a
steak at this time Of day, they wouldn't
touch it if they had all the time In the
world at their disposal. They prefer
something dainty. One will take choc-
olate eclaire and milk; another chicken
salad, and another strawberry short
cake. Pie-they leave that for the men.
Some of them are saleswomen in the
shops. and they work as hard as men,
but they don't seem to care for the
same sort of food."-New York Press.

The agonizing itching and burning OF

scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss OF hair
and crusting Of the scalp, as in 5called

acne and ringworm; the awful suffer-

almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Resolvent are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent cure,
the absolute safety and great economy
have made them the standard skin
cures, blood purifiers and humour RENE
dies of the civilized word.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
rubbing, and apply Cuticura Oint-
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation

and, lastly, take Cuticura Resolvent, to
cool and cleanse the blood. This CON-

affords instant relief, permits rest and

The Tennis Face.

Maidens, beware Of acquiring the
"tennis face" by which fresh terror
is added to existence. The bicycle

the appendicitis-suffering brigade, the
"golf face"-these are some of the nov
elites which the human physiognomE
oft assumes in modern times. A recent
invention is the tennis face" which
does not appear to have been noticed
in the last quarter century.
The tennis face" attacks feminine
players, and q very unbecoming mani
festation it is. Deep wrinkles. apoplet-
ically crimson cheeks, anxiously raised

signs of the inroads of this malady.

Forces That Lead to Fame and Fortune.
There are several forces which help
to continue civilization. Among them
are the family, the church, the govern

the church represents religion; the gov

represents force; literature represents
truth, and personality represents in
