as the whole motive back of much
mOney-making When a man has
acquired more millions than he can
possibly use for housing, eating, Civ
ing and amusing himself, what cause
other than avaTiciousness has he to
pile up money for want of which
other human beings suffer? One
need be neither a philosopher nor a
scientist to question, the sanity Of
some famous business geniUses.
WHAT thou shalt not covet" has
been more exactly defined than other
temptations. The things forbidden
are material and physical and are
fairly well distributed in society. But
there is one form of covetousness
which is universal
Man is most aVaricious not of
wealth, but of time. And who is ever
content with his present special span
of eternity?
The boy would be man, the girl
would be bride, old age would have
back you's strength and beauty, the
middle-aged would burn life's candle
at both ends, lest death come too
soon, and the man of a hundred
years would never have done, with
living.
What is the sin of thus coveting
time?
Life unfuIfiIIed-timet thrown away
energy misspent.
We all talk recklessly of a long
life. But life is never long.
