Now. my friends, the human being
who commits suicide merely because
the golden breasted oriole of wealth
has plumed her wings and disappeared
from sight or because the iconoclast OF
trouble has shattered the idol of fame
is doing a fools business. Happiness,
true happiness. the happiness for
which we all long and for which some
of us are seeking. is not dependent up
on outside surroundings. but upon the
condition of the heart. Some of the
most unhappy human beings have
been the so called worldly successful
men. Did all the unlimited financial
wealth OF Nathan Rothschild make
him happy? For many years he was
the universally recognized financial
king OF Europe. In a single day he
made over 100000. At the battle
Of Waterloo he was an anxious specta-
tor. AS socn as that battle was de-
eided he put spurs TO his horse and
rode like the wind toward London.
! He had a relay of horses awaiting
him and a special boat chartered TO
| take him across the channel. Then.
next morning. he appeared upon the
] London Exchange and circulated the
/ report that Wellington was defeated.
