DAILY y ® Di TION r Nine-tenths of one’s success comes from his mental attitude. Petrified op- timism the key to success In the financial struggle occa. sioned by our country being at war there is nothing that will restore normal conditions quicker than a cheerful outlook on conditions. Most of the people who came to Prince Ru- pert are resourceful enough to start all over again if they have to. Anyone who has prop- erty in this city can wait with perfect confidence that values will come back. In the mean- time, if he has to turn his hand in business is to something else he will be unworthy of his breed if he does not do it cheerfully. Cheer up! . 2 3s Speaking about mental at- titude, it is wonderful the large of people one meets with a grouch. They have de- veloped that attitude through- out many years and of course business runs away from them when it sees them coming. If they are called upon to pay a bill they do it with bad grace. If you ask them, “How's bus- niess?” they say, “Rotten.” Ask them what they think of the outlook, they reply in de- spair. How a mental outlook like that could accomplish anything is beyond the com- number prehension of any reasonable being to imagine. Nine-tenths Saturday: Sept. 5, 1914 a ee of one’s fears never re aliee and a large amount of the balance can be offset by sheer foree of will, * * A good many people think think optimism and pessimism are personal attributes that are born with one and from which they cannot escape. Peo- ple who hold such ideas are fa- talists without perhaps know- ing it and are hopeless. Atti- tudes of mind are formed like other habits. A cheerful dis- position can be formed through habit in exactly the same way that one’s fingers become nim- ble on the piano through hab- it or practice. Look for and expect the best should the heavens fall. When Napoleon was told that the Alps offered an insuperable obstacle he re- plied} “There is no Alps.” That's the kind of attitude that conquers; and your mind can be trained to think like that just like your muscles respond to habit or training. . ¢ @ All successful men are pro- gressive and optimistic. The man who is perfectly normal is so by nature. It is only when nature is thwarted and de- ranged that a man becomes a pessimist. The human voice is in its perfection in the child. Witness the newsboy on the street. Nervousness and bad habits make it impossible for * Locate oil use the drill. To test FLOUR BAKE BREAD.

They can be overcome by veplacing them with corect habits whether physical or mental. In all these cases, however, the mind must first cast out all fear and other disintegrating tendencies and assuming the mental normal outlook of a child build up its structure thereon. This comes pretty close to the Christian teaching that to enter the Kingdom of Heaven one must become a lit tle child. GREAT B BRITAIN’S cRoPS ARE ABOVE AVERAGE Accounts from the crop reporters of the Board of Agriculture and Fish eries throughout the country show that the British wheat crop is forward, and that the — yield per acre will be well over the av- erage, says Lloyd's Weekly News. Harvest has commenced in the southern counties. Barley has improved during the past month, received recently and will probably be up to the average. Oats are a fair crop, though short in straw. Beans are an average crop, but peas are not quite so good. The potato crop is very strong and healthy, and there will be a full supply, without any addition from imports, for a whole year's consumption, Root crops quire rain. The apple the districts look well, but re- crop, especially in where it is chiefly grown, is considerably above the average, while the crop of pears is even more satisfactory. FIRST REGULAR THROUGH PASSENGER TRAIN ARRIVES The first regular passenger train from Prinee George arriv- ed sharp on time last evening on the new schedule, which brings her in at 6 p. m. The train had a new first-class coach and a standard sleeper on, beside an of- ficial car. The sleeper, which is one of the Grand Trunk Pacifie specially designed cars so popu- lar on the eastern end of the line, will go out on tomorrow's train. The new schedule is not to go into effect until tomorrow but the company’s boys are all ready for it and will maintain a good ser- vice and keep the trains running on time, SINGERS AT WAR OPERA CALLED OFF Boston, Sept. 4.—There prob- ably will be no grand opera here this winter, according to a cable- gram received from Eben D,. Jor- dan, managing director of the Boston Opera Company. Most of the singers are Europeans, and at least fourteen male members of the company are known to have enlisted in the armies of their na- tive countries. — | enar CHINA STATION COST THE DAILY NEWS, THE GERMANS 40 MILLIONS London, Sept. 4.——Wild indig- nation is manifested in the Ger man newspapers reaching this city over the action taken by Jap- an in support of Great Britain.

The Preston brewery, in a prohibition town and county, took fire when a party of “drys” were celebrating the result of the recent election at Preston when the city voted to continue with- out saloons. While the sale of liquor is for- bidden by law at Preston, its manufacture is not and the brew ery is a large one. When the fire broke out “dry” volunteers fought valiantly be- side the city fire department and so effective were their efforts that the blaze was extinguished without serious loss.
