 began to arrive with his vast cargoea his elevators were ready and his en. emies were defeated.
 And during those stressful days he never lost his customary poise, never worked an hour later nor earlier than usual. He came to his office at and left at 6 o'clock. At o'clock each night, according to his custom, he was in his bed at home. At 6 o'clock in the morning he was at breakfast by gaslight with his wife in their plain home on Prairie avenue. In all the dark succeeding days of the panic he did not lose his equanimity. Indeed, he safe-guarded his affairs in advance in such finished manner that he noyer had cause for aneasiness. He had been spending his vacation in Eu- rope the summer before the financial crisis became manifest. With his cus- tomary activity in watching industrial and financial developments he foresaw abroad the shadow of trouble at home. He came quickly to New York and be fore the general business world was aware of an impending change in the dominant prosperity of the country he scented a financial famine. Then he called his confidential men from Chi cago and bade them borrow money on his name to the limit. They laughed at his warnings and feared that his nerves had given way.

 And would you carry them out if you had the meansp
 Most assuredly."
 "well, then" said Mir. Armour, give me five years of your time and l will give you the money"
 This incident is described as "Dr. Gunsaulus' S2,S00,OOO sermon," but it led to the fulfillment of Mir. Armour's chief work of philanthropy.
 MT. Armour was as systematic in his charities as in his business affairs. The Armour mission funds are in, vested in a great square of first class flats, the revenue from which accrues to the mission work, all the affairs of which are handled by stock com pany, of which he was the head.
 In answer to the question if he con- sidered the chances for boy to suc- ceed as good at the present time as when he was boy, Mir. Armour re- piled:
 Every bit and better. The affairs of life are larger. There gre greater things to do. There was never before such demand for able men"
