The, Exports of the Southern
States Greatly Increase
The. Trade Is Leaving the Atlantic
Coast for Other Forts in ths
County.
pHg LATE OFFICIAL FIGURES

The doors through which the ex-
ports Of the United States flow to sae
outside world are opening more wide
ly year by year, and this seems to be
especially true OF the ports located on
the Gulf of Mexioo, the northern lake
b0sder, and the Pacific coast For
merly the Atlantic coast ports held a
very large proportion Of the export as
well as import trade. but in recent
years the export trade Is being distrib-
uted to the ports at the north and the
south, as we'll as the west, though in
importations the Atlantic ports still
retain aboat so per cent of the total
import trade. The figures of the fiscal
year just ended, compared with those
Of the fiscal year 1901, presented by
the department Of commerce and
labor, through its bureau of statistics,
show reduction for Boston of 80 mil.
lions in exports; New York a Teduc-
tion Of "a millions; Philadelphia a re-
duction OF 8 millions; Baltimore re-
duction of 90 millions; Newport News
a reduction of Z millions, and Nor
folk a reduction OF nearly millions.
Moving down the coast toward the
south, however, and still comparing
the figures Of 1898 with those of 1901
Savannah sows an increase in exporta-
tions of about millions; Wilmington,
N. O., over 2 millions; Galveston an
increase uof millions Mobile an in
crease of million, and New Orleans
. decrease Of 8 millions.
Combining all of the Atlantic ports,
the total exports Of 1908, compared
with those Of 1901, show . falling of
Of 9s million dollars; the Gulf ports
show practically the sane figure in
1908 as in 1901; Mexican border ports
show IN increase of nearly 5 millions
Pacific ports an increase of 10 mil
hons, and northern border and lake
ports an increase Of Is m illions in the
exports OF 1908 compared with those
Of 1901. Thus the Atlantic ports are
the only group showing reduction in
1903 compared with 1901.
In imports, however, the Atlantic
ports still hold their commanding
position. The total imports OF 1908
amounted to 1,025 millions, and OF
this, s2l millions, or so per cent.
came ir through the Atlantic ports.
In 1898 the total importations were 500
millions; of this, III millions, or SO
per cent cent, came In through Allan
tic ports. Comparing the imports OF
1908 with those Of 1901, the Atlantic
ports show an increase Of ISL million
dollars; the Gulf ports 10 millions
Mexican border ports. 3 millions; Pa
citio ports. s millions, and northern
border and lake ports, 25 millions.

An exercise which, If perseyeringly
practiced, will greatly strengthen the
eyes and which has entirely restored
many cases of impaired vision, so that
spectacles and eyeglasses were dis
cardcd, Is to turn the eyes upward aud
downward alternately. as far rs posi-
ble twenty times, says writer In the

upward glance. The motion Is inces
SAINT, but not FASTENED. Next turn the
eyes to right and to left, repeating as
before. Turn them to the upper left
corner and the diverse, or diagonally-
that is, to lower right corner. Repeat
Turn them to the upper right corner
and its diverse. Repeat. Conclude the
exercise with rolling the eyes around
first to the right, then to the left In
the extreme limit of the muscular ex-
tension, being careful, however. not to
strain the muscles.
If the exercise is repeated 1T conYen-
lence several times during the day, It
will soon strengthen the muscles.

Singing sands are found in many
parts of the United States. but squeak
ing sands are not so common. The sing
ing sand emits a musical sound only
when dry and loses this property on
being dampened. The squeaking sand,
on the other hand, is silent when dry
and squeaks best and loudest when
moistened. The sound it gives forth is
by no means loud. but somewhat re-
sembles the squeaking Of an armchair.
1t sounds when rubbed between the
fingers or when placed in a small bag
and violently struck, but the cause Of
the sound is mystery.
