Again, religion 1s a friend of longev-
ity in the feet that it takes the worry
out of temporalities, It Is not work
then kills sten, It le worry. When tt
man becomes a genuine Chrlwtlan, he
stakes over to God not only 'hie If-
feetlona, but his family, his business,
his equitation, his body, his mind, his
sell -everything. Induetrions he will

shout business? Why, you would say,
"I'll do the beat I can, and then 1'11
depend on my friend's generosity fee
the reel."
Now, more than that ie prur1110od to
every Christian business man. God
says to him: "I own New York and
