and has made our life happier. But at the same time it has increased human suffer- uksV
ings. Today people condemn it. Today it has become the main cause of many evils. It
has brought the world on the verge of ruin. Modern wars are the wars of science. Wars
of today are more deadful than those of yesterday.

‘‘Stand forth! thou Persian dog, and learn thy fate,’’ said Omar fiercely. ‘‘Thou shalt
die and die within an hour. Neither prayers nor promises can save thy life.’’
‘‘No Persian trembles at the throught of death,’’ the Chieftain answered, ‘‘I ask not for
my life, thou mayest take it now and when thou welt. I beg but one boon before I die–
a cup of wine to quench my burning thirst.’’

EXERCISE 8
Perhaps we are living in one of the great ages of mankind and have to pay the price of
that privilege. For the great ages have been full of conflict and instability, of an at-

EXERCISE 9
It is your duty to train and develop your mind and acquire knowledge as much knowl-
edge as you can possibly obtain. Knowledge is like a deep well fed by perennial springs

intelligence. If you do not develop and use the brain to the utmost of your power. You
are more akin to the beast than to human beings.

Many people complain that they have broken down through overwork. In the majority
of such cases the breakdown is more frequently the result of foolishly wasted energy.
If you would secure health, you must learn to work without friction. To become anx-
ious or excited or to worry over needles details is to invite a breakdown. Work, whether
