Result of a Weekly Rest
Exodus 20:8-11
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.…


"Tell me," said a gentleman, addressing a clean, tidy cabman, how is it that some of the men on the stand look so smart on a Monday morning — they have clean shirts, and are much happier-looking than the other men; and their horses are sprightlier, too. What is the cause of the contrast?" "Oh, they are six-day men, sir. They have green plates; their cabs don't run on Sundays; both men and horses have now a weekly rest. That's the reason why they are not jaded like the others, sir."
