CONCENTRATION.

The burning glass furnishes an u
lustrati0n that should be studied by
every one who would make the mos,
effective use Of his mental powers.
The glass concentrates the suns rays
to one point AMI
Every man needs mental burning
glass;
SO long as his powers are difuse they
will be as powerless as the sunshine
but when brought together to focal
point something will happen.
The men who accomplish things are
those who can shut out all the world
and bring their whole minds to the
consideration of one subject 1t Is
only so that they can pierce it through
like the burning glass.
One OF the greatest intellectual pleas
ures is to take up any problem. analyze
it. pick it to pieces. look all over. IN
der and through it find out every
thing about tin word. master it.
Thomas A. Edison is perhaps the
greatest inventor in the worlds history
because he has the power Of concen
ira ton. He shuts himself up with his
problem. often without food or sleep
until he has gained complete mastery
Of its every detail
By concentration we can even affect
the action OF some given part Of the
body. We can affect the beating OF
the heart. the warmth Of a particular
point. the health Of an organ.
It Is matter Of organizing OUT
forces and directing them to one point
And on 1t depends mental efficiency.
On It depends success.
