SHE HAS ARRIVED.

How long does it take to arrive on
the screen?is a question which thous-
Iands of aspiring actresses and near
actresses are asking themselves.
There is no answer 1t is all matter
of individuality and opportunity. Some
actresses, like Mary Pickford, achieve
greatness through their personal fit
ness and the universal recognition of
this ability and adaptability. Some,
and we will mention no names, have
had success thrust upon them by OPP
portunity. More than 80 per cent of
the present stars are CT the opportun-
ity-made variety. But it is quite pos
sible to have a thoroughly logical com

MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY, BY CHAR.
CHAPTER THE THIRD.
LIE FROM THE ORIENT,

."Since the days had come and gone
l desired to come back to my grand
mothers home which was about IS
miles in distance north of Picking, the
beautiful capital city of my native
land. On account of being brought
up in poverty | had been back and
forth from Grandmother to Mother
for a number of times. 1t were quite
unpleasant for me to go to and from
one place to another.
when I was seventeen years old,
however, stayed with my Mother about
six months. Then there came to my
mind a vision that must travel or
wander from place to place to see on
the bright side of everything or the
port of life" (To be continued)

you can honey also. Besides there syrups The

FRANCE AND BELGIUM

Ninety-five per cent. of all refined

the Allied nations went to France and
Belgium during the first five months
of this year. @
France got Y per cent, or nearly
33,OOO,OOO pounds, and Belgium receiv.

In each country this sugar was doled

SUGAR EXPORTS SMALL
TO NEUTRAL NATIONS

Only 797 tons of refined sugar were
shipped from America to neutral ma
tons during the first five months of

countries. Mexico received more than
half the amount we exported TO neu-

Good Rice Crops Grown In Abundant
Moisture and Region Is Noted
for Good Cattle.

/ Sylhet is city in the most curious
part Of India-the great, low lying
tungly, sflooded, tea and rice districts
Of the far Southeast. Sylhet tea Is
known all over the peninsula. e.
So low do these regions lie that the
heavy rains of the rainy season result
in their being flooded for many months
of the year. Though far inland, after
the rains this is literally sea, where
all travel is by boat and even ships Of
some size can navigate. The torren-
tial downpours flood the lower parts of
the country to depth Of many feet.
There is one little village at the base
Of the Khasia hills which had a meas
ured rainfall of go feet in one year,
an exchange says.
The villages Of this curious district
about Sylhet are set on the crest Of
hills. After the rains fall they are is-!
lands. The people are very expert
boatmen5 and the children can swim
almost as soon as they can walk.
This is probably the only part Of In
flia where the canoe is in use. A craft
not unlike the American is manufac-
tured by following out tree trunk
very thin. Larger canoes, propelled
by 20 paddles, are made in the same
way, and canoe racing is one Of the
principal sports.
The villagers Of these island villages
keep diminutive cattle which they feed
largely on marsh grasses cut from
boats. AS a result Of abundant feed
and lack Of exercise, the cows grow
fat and sleek to q degree unusual
among the lean Indian cattle. Their
milk, butter and cheese are known as
delicacies in the nearby cities. These
same Villages raise unusually fine rice,
by planting before the rains begin.
AS the country is flooded, the stalks
of the rice grow with the rising SUR
face Of the waters, SO that rice stalks
ten feet long may be seen when the
GOODS recede.

WORLD SHORTAGE
IN BEET SUGAR
Crops Are 40 Per Cent. Less
Than Pre-War Average-Cen.
trail Powers Fit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR IS ISOLATED,
Allied Beet Production Falls One-third
in Rigid War Economy
Practced.

The world today is producing fort
per cent. less beet sugar than the pre-
war average.
Counting the American, Allied an
German-Austrian crops, as well as tn
neutrals, the U. S. Food Adninistra
ton has estimated that the wOrlt
shortage created by the light crop o
1917-191S is at Least three and hal
million tons. -.
That the 1917-191S crop of cane sug
ar was two million tons in excess O.
the previous year does not relieve thu
general shortage.
Cuba and Java produce one half, o.
the world cane crop, and the Java sug
ar is too far removed from America tt
transport when shipping is badly need
ed to transport and maintain the mill
tary forces in FRANCE.
In~Java large part of the old sugar
crop is still awaiting shipment. Since
it requires $50 to 100 days for each
boat that is sent to Java the possibili.
ties Of obtaining adequate shipments
of Java sugar this season are remote.
...-. Allies Production Falls.
Taking the Allied nations as group,
official reports show that beet sugar
production is less by one-third than the
pre-war average.
French beet sugar industry has suf-
fereA most by the war The French
yield of beet sugar is now only 29.1
per. cent. Of the pre-war average
For. the five years preceding the out
break of hostilities in Europe, France
produced an average of ,542 tons OF
sugar each year For 1917-1S the
French production was 219,416 tons,
With 81 factories operating, as COM
pared with more than 200 that were
in existence before the war and before
the general campaign Of destructive
ness launched by the German armies,
France nevertheless managed to manu-
facture more beet sugar ins 1917-1S
than in 1867, when the total output
was 02415 tons.
Italy in 1918 produced 1O0SOO
tons of beet sugar, which was $4,000
tons less than the previous year and
11O,25O less than the annual output of
sugar for the five year pre-war Pc
Rod
One of the great difficulties expert
enced in Italy's beet sugar industry
was finding sufficient labor to handle
the crop. Thousands Of men usually
employed in beet sugar projection
were called for military service. The
yield per acre amounted 20 approx
mately half of the usual quantity of
beets harvested
