convinced. Why, you can see it for yourself; it cannot help producing the result. If you concenter on an object, and hold the thought firmly, you cannot help doing the best work, and if you do the best work you will receive the proper reward, providing you have the sense with which you were born, and have not allowed yourself to be hypnotized into a belief that you are a worm of the dust, or a human doormat. If you do the best work, you will find a market for your services; if your present employer doesn't appreciate you, there are plenty of others who will. But you will have to do the work - don't forget that. No man is going to be fool enough to pay you for something that you do not do. Oh, no, he is not built that way, and he would not "arrive" if he did. But, just the same, he will not permit you to leave his employ for that of his rival, if you do the best work, and you will do the best work if you only will get down to business, and concenter.

Well, then, stop fooling around about it, and get to work in earnest. Get a move on, and hustle. If you refuse to accept the means of financial salvations now offered you, why just lie around and be a human doormat all your life; who cares! If a man is too lazy to be saved, why, just let him be -the other thing. It serves him right. Some of you fellows need a man around you with a spiked club, with instructions to give you a good bang every time you slack up and engage in mental wool-gathering. Stop your "moaning" and get down to business. Some people spend their life in dreaming of the hereafter, where they expect to spend their time "loafing around the throne." Now, they're sure to be fooled about that. All Nature is in motion, and God is working hard every
