The typical auecess-tu- l business man of today crowds the work of 20 hours into 10 hours and only leaves his office to plunge into social dissipation of one kind or another, eating too much, drinking too much, smoking too much, going to bed too lale, and keeping his nervous system continually on the rack until, all at once, It breaks down.

Nothing can he more obvious than that the very complexity of our minimi civilization is shortening our lives. Hut uf all the evils that nfllict us the worst and must destructive are hurry and worry. Hurry drives the body machine be.vond Its capacity, while worry racks it ( if Ihe two worry Is probably the inwardly. worse. Tb.is might, indeed, he called the age of worty. Iecause of the intense nervous strain to which tic are subjected we do vastly more worrying than did our forebears.
