WHEN HE CAME TO DIE.
| Story oi a Very Rich Man
and the Angel.
We used to read stories in which angels
talked with men. Every school
boy and girl remembers about Ben
I Adhem and what the angel did lor
hirn. Well, here is another tale, different
from that one, but an angel in
it:
A rich man lay in his bed so ill that
everyone thought he would surely die.
He was not really a bad man; but he
had made many people suffer that he
mignti oecome ricn. uonsequeuuy
very few who knew of his illness cared
whether he died or not.
One night, so he told afterwards, an
angel appeared to him and said:
"Are yon ready to die?"
Being a bnsiness man who never
minced words with any one, he replied
very shortly:
"Certainly not. I have much work
to do and I cannot afford to die just
now."
"Very well," said the angel, "yon
shall live on certain conditions."
"Well," snapped the sick man,
"what are they?"
"First," answered the angel, "I
mu9t remind yon of some things yon
have forgotten. The spirit in man is
eternal and in its natnre it is pure and
full of light. Your wife, who is the
only human being that loves you with
understanding, has such a spirit. Yon
shall get well again Your ambitions
will increase. Your heart will desire
many things and you shall have them
all. And one day you ana your viie
shall die in the same moment."
.The man trembled.
"Do not fear," said the angel, "it
will be a long time hence. But in the
meanwhile lemember this:
"Wheneveryou are angry your neck
will swell and . the veins will stand
out. Whenever you are afraid your
lips will curl up like the lips of a wolf.
Whenever you tell a falsehood your
eyes will be clouded. And whenever
you cause any one to suffer the light
will leave your countenance."
Wnile the angel spoke the sick man
had kept his eyes closed, but when the
voice ceased he opened them continuously.
The angel was gone and the
man laughed aloud:
"Well," he exclaimed, "that angel
has no idea how modern business
methods train a man to conceal his
emotions."
II.
In a few days the man was better
and in a few more he was at his bnsiness
again. He had many ambitions,
his heart was tilled witii desire and
everything he wanted he received, as
the angel had said.
Now in the course of his business
the man was often angry, but his neck
did not swell and the veins did not
stand out. He was often afraid when
he tried to get the better of other men
but his lips did not curl up like the
lips of a wolf. He told many falsehoods,
but when he did so he locked
the other man straight in the face and
his eyes were not clouded. And with
all the money he made there came suffering
to others, but the light did not
leave his countenance.
As the years went by and success
came, the man and his wife grew
apart. Neither acknowledged it, and
their friends did not notice it. But
they knew, the man and the woman,
that their paths were not the same.
Then the day come.
Both were killed in a railway accident.
Ill
Now this is where my knowledge of
this matter ends. But one day I told
this story to a holy man, one who
reads all things as easily as you read
these words. And I said to him:
"Let us suppose it was an angel who
spoke (>o the man, how comes it that
all die angel said was made untrue by
the trick a man learns in business,
trick of concealing his emotions?"
And the holy man said in reply:
"It is very simple. When the spirit
left the woman's body, it was pure
and fall of light, as the aDgel said.
But when the spirit left the man's
body the neck was swollen and the
veins stood out. The lips were those
of a snarling wolf. The eyes were
dim, and the countenance instead of
being full of light, was the color of
ashes."
"And is snch a spirit as that eter- j
nal?" I asked him. I
And the holy man said:
"I do not know."?Thomas Tapper. |
