LEARN TO CONCENTRATE
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX
The mind Is like a wild • ■<> 11 and
he who undertakes to break a wild
colt to the bit needs to know some
thing about horses and horse training.
Here is a little formula for the be
ginning of mind control. When ytiu
rise in the morning give your very
lirst thought to the Great Power which
has brought you to the threshold of
another day. Say mentally a little
prayer of gratitude, "Thank You,
Great Creator, for life and hope," will
serve every purpose.
Even if you are despondent and
do not feel hope in your heart, say
the words, because hope is really in
your heart, whether you feel it or
not. A being absolutely without hope
could not life. While you are dressing
think of Hope, Courage, Love, Faith,
Health, Wealth, Usefulness and Good
Will. Refuse absolutely to permit
your mind to occupy itself with
thoughts of trouble and sickness. As
you mingle with your fellows, wheth
er in your family, or in your place of
business, pick out some agreeable
topic of conversation rather than one
depressing and unpleasant.
In these times there is much writ
ten and said about efficiency, and
about the conserving of our time and
energies, in eliminating wasteful
methods from our business. A won
derful system has been inaugurated
where bricklayers and carpenters can
accomplish three times the labor with
one-half the effort, Just by avoiding
unnecessary movements and economiz
ing time and energy.
The same can be done with the
mind.

ED. PINAUD BUILDING NEW YORK
TUESDAY EVENING,
To each of 11 s 1b given b certain
amount of mental energy—of nervous
forci by filling ALL our lungs with
fresh air many times a day, and by
understanding and employing tho
LAW OF CONCENTRATION in the
use of our minds.
Or we can deplete those precious
forces by breaking the laws of health
in diet, postures of tho body, and
habits of wasteful thought. It ts a
wicked misuse of thought to allow
your mind to dwell on the unpleasant
things in your own life or in the uni
verse.
It is wicked to think of troubles
which are past, to fear troubles which
may come, to worry over the future
and to wonder why Providence does
not arrange affairs differently.
Mental efficiency does not follow
such methods of thinking.
Intelligent men and women fre
quently scatter their forces by criti
cisms of the Power which permits the
helpless invalids and the criminal and
the insane to live, while the young
and happy and strong and useful are
taken away.
Over and over we hear these com
ments and complaints. Of what avail
are they?
And who can say that the time had
not come for the passing onward of
any soul that goes, however young and
happy and needed.
Such use of our mental energies is
wrong and foolish.
It is brain destroying, not brain
building.
Keep all your thoughts for some
constructive purpose.
The moment you feel your mind
going off on a senseless, useless tan-
Kent draw In the reins as you would
draw them were you riding a refrac
tory horse heading for a ditch.
Say to your foolish thought of fear,
or gloom, or doubt, or worry, "Get
thee behind me, Satan, thou art not
of God, and I will have none of thee."
Repeat wholesome words Love.
Peace, Attainment, Success, Opulence
and Usefulness." And when you fall
asleep at night, think of the invisible
Helpers as ministering Angels who
will come and build your brain as you
desire it to be and sleep in peace.

HERE'S THERM
SUGAR IS SO HIGH
England Turns to New York When
the European Supply
Is Cut Off
Most Harrislnirgers who have been
paying high prices for sugar know in
a general way that the war is respon
sible for the excessive fee charged by
dispensers of the saccharine product,
but the inner reasons are set forth in
the following bulletin issued by the
Domestic Sugar Producers in New
York:
Europe and America are now en
gaged in a battle royal for sugar.
That is the primary cause of the high
prices that now prevail. Cut oft by
the outbreak of the war from her
supply of 1,500,000 tons of sugar or
dinarily secured from Germany and
Austria-Hungary, England turned to
the nearest available market, which
happened to be New York. Hacked
by cash, assuming all the war risk in
volved in shipment and ready to pay
whatever prices might be necessary
to secure sugar, British buyers in
varded the American market. Within
little more than a week, they pur
chased almost 100,000 tons of raw and
refined sugar, bidding up the market
nearly 3 cents a pound in the process
of getting it. Their buying subsided
temporarily only when they found it
impossible to secure further prompt

transportation. As another war meas
ure for securing a supply of sugar,
orders were issued in all the sugar
growing colonies of Great Britain for
bidding the sale of sugar except for
imperial use.
At the outbreak of the war the visi
ble supply of sugar available for the
American market was barely sufficient
to last until the new crop of American
grown sugar should begin to become
available in October. The wthdrawal
of 100,000 tons from this supply cre
ated a serious shortage, and inquiries
received in the New York market in
dicating that England would seek to
obtain several hundred thousand tons
more of sugar, and that other Euro
pean countries might endeavor to pur
chase sugar here, threatened to make
this shortage much more serious. As
a result, American purchasers in the
sugar market, seeking to protect their
own trade, entered into active com
petition with the foreign buyers in the
scramble for sugar. To make the sit
uation more acute, consumers in all
parts of the country rushed to lay in
supplies far in excess of their ordi
nary purchases, thus accentuating the
scarcity.
The prize for which the buyers of
Great Britain and America are con
tending is the Cuban sugar crop. Eng
land and the United States each im
port annually about 2,000,000 long
tons of sugar. The Cuban crop is
about 2,500,000 tons, enough to supply
one of these two big customers, but
entirely Inadequate to meet the needs
of both. The prospect, therefore, is
for a keen struggle on the part of
these two countries to secure the bulk
of the coming Cuban crop in case the
war continues for any considerable
length of time.
When the present blockade of ship
ping is relieved, it is probable that
Great Britain, and possibly also the
United States, may obtain some sugar

from tropical cane growing countries
other than Cuba. The fact remains,
however, that the European nations
producing annually 8,000,000 lons
tons of sugar, -or 4f> per cent, of the
entire world's sugar supply, are now
at war. A large part of this crop
will be sacrificed—how much remains
to be seen. At any rate, approxi

ported from these countries is with
