Last 80 long--your "lamp Of life" must burn out
some day. You argue it is prudent to insure a.

yet neglect certain event which mill and mast

prudencef We admit and assert the prudence of
the first, but assert the greater wisdom and neees
sity for the last. Ask yourself the question, are
you doing right to neglect this opportunity to pro-
