Judgment comes? Then look at what
you are and what you are doing.
Pause and think, What am u" Set
tie what you are. "What am l do
ing? For what am living? How do
stand in relation to this bool-this
revealed Book Of God? What am l
doing with God and the precious life
He has given me?" You have to set
tie that question. You are not liy-
Ing to yourself, but affecting all those
you touch-scattering the seed that
Is going to bo God-honoring or a
harvest Of tangled thickcts and poi
! soning weeds that you shall have to
gather with bleeding hands and torn
! feet because Of your own founder
ing folly. And it will be no use to
look over the field when it. is too
late and say, only God, never meant
all this" But that is your work and
you will have to gather it. You will
have to reap what you have sown.
What shall the harvest be?
First, an impaired will. Slavery
Of any sort is bad enough, but to be
In the bondage Of your own will, and
| sions and weaknesses, this is inde-
scribably sad. This makes tho strong
! weak, the good evil, the rich poor,
| and the poor it crushes down TO COM
plete despair.
Second, it casts a shadow upon
others. Here are five acts in a sin
tragedy which should be kept in
mind:
First. Picture young man leav-
ing home, his mothers arms about
his neck, her kisses upon his cheek.
His father, with strained look on
his countenance, takes him By the
hand, saying, Come, son, it IS time
10 CO." And they are travelling 10
the depot, and he is going away for
the first time to make his way III the
| world
Second picture: He has been un
usually successful, Barriers have dis
appeared before him, and success has
come to him almost in the first of
his life in the great city. And his
parents tell the story with shining

STOCK MARKET
(By Thes Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Dec. PA chief in- terest in today's financial markets centered on the further spectacular rise in sterling exchange, demand bills touching $463 an overnight rise of four cents, and new high price since 1919. The extrme low was 3.1S in February 1920. Today's rate brings the depreciations from par which is S4.S6 5-S to less than five per cent. Under the provisions of the new tariff act when the depre- citation is five per cent or more the valuation of foreign currncy for customs purposs shall be the buying rate in New York at noon on the day of exportation," which is cer- tified to by the federal reserve banks
 When the depreciation is less than five per cent ;he customs rates are based on the wa value of exchange. This, if the present sterling rate is maintained will automatically serve to increase the import duties on British goods. Special opera tions the nature of which was not divulged, were held responsible for the heavy selling of dollars in the London market which precipitated the rise in sterling here.
 Stock prices showed much bet ter tone but trading was again almost entirely a professional af- fair.
