that he do all he can for the service of others, and so render himself useful and indispensable to man kind. Men who live according to the doctrine of the world are usually anxious to rid themselves of any one who is useless and whom they are obliged to feed; at the first possible opportunity they cease to feed such a one, and leave him to die, because of his uselessness; but him who lives for others according to the doctrine of Jesus, all men, however wicked they may be, will always nourish and care for, that he ma} r continue to labor in their behalf.

Which, then, is the more reasonable; which offers the more joy and the greater security, a life accord ing to the doctrine of the world, or a life according to the doctrine of Jesus?
