O gain OF $EI.5S for the eight months

n,e esToe Of rannr nearly
100 per cent. In August Puget sound gains
$a3s 90. or roughly 70 per cent, against
August. 1898. San Francisco shows re-
markahle gain in imports for August.
bringing It's total for the year so far ahead
Of the 1895 eight months period. Puget
sound Is again greatly ahead of the VIII
lamette district.
The exports table shows a considerable
aggregate gain for August. but continued
lower figure for the eiGht-months period.
though the latter comparison Is roundly
last The favorable leap forward Is large
ly due to increases during August by Pu-

A new KIND OF FACE.


Students of faces-of the bicycle" :"
the soda fountain" and "open trolley"
face-will be glad TO hear OF new DIS
covery in this line. Officially it's title
is the summer suit face" This face
is of more complex nature than those
heretofore classified having three
phases, or diagnostic signs, that sue
ceed each other with great rapidly, ac-
cording To the Philadelphia Record. In
the first phase the patients expression
resembles an alert detectives; his
chances dart about, and his head twists
here and there; he seems to be looking
for something. A big bulk window.
with something dark behind it-a win
dow that affords a good reflection--is
what he IS looking for. and as soon as
he has found it the second phase sue
ceeds the first one. Now abnormal COM
placency and foolish delight are his
faces characteristics; ne studies his
reflection. and IL fills him with JOY. As
soon as the window is passed phase
three begins-a sheepisn and uneasy
phase. during which the patient looks
at everybody fearing that n has been
seen admiring himself and that he lis
being laughed at. Were ID not for It's
downcast and sad quality. this last
phase would be hard TO distinguish
from the first. wltch. as a rule. sue
ceeds it again after the patient has
progressed about five yards. Chestnut
street on a nice day e the best place
TO study the summer suit face" and
the specialists say that nothing could
be more beautiful--from the investiga-
tors standpolnt--than the manner I'm
which the three phases will flow over
the countenance OF a sufferer thirty or
forty times i'm the course Of a half hour
stroll
