Coal Is decidedly improved by a
repose of many years under sea, for
marine salts enter its porous exterior
and increase its power of combustion
for both domestic and industrial
uses.
Pig iron has been salvaged after a
stay of 100 years in the farthest
depths. Rails are brought up in good
condition also. Copper bars, brass
and all sorts of machinery are recov-
cred In good condition, for although

Plan to Salvage
Sunken Cargoes

Hooper held the record for immersion
when he went down $50 feet in 1884
10 reclaim the gold which sank in the
Alphonso MI off the Canary islands.
Hooper made 10 different trips to
the wreck in as many months. So
nrduous and fatiguing was the descent
that he was able TO remain only 10
minutes each time before he signaled
for the return journey. 1t took him
four hours to make the descent, be-
cause of the necessity of accustomlng
his body by degrees to the increased
pressure. The last time he went down
he became paralyzed and was Obliged
to come up leaving $4,000 In gold
behind him--which still awaits find
er In all he brought up $350,00o.
Today the salvagng submarine

day may be. The materials salvaged

800 tons OF coal or scrap iron In TN
hour, and place 1t on the deck Of a
cargo carrying steamer nearby. An
entire cargo is thus salvaged in a few
hours, and the work of locating and

undertaken.

ket that is in the savings of the people
and not at the banks.
1.-THE amount OF export trade securi-
ties to be held by banks must necessar-
lily be limited to a minimum figure"
the board asserts.
Requirements of export financing
probably have been overestimated, the
board says, and adds that some part
of the export demand would disappear
probably when actual commercial Sc
curity would be required for protec-
ton of shipments.
Recovery May Be Rapid.
ut IS quite probable" the board re-
marks, that, as European countries
succeed in re-estahllshing themselves,
their recovery toward self-supporting
basis will be much more rapid than
has been expected. Far more time Is
required for the expenditure of great
sums in the purchase of goods than is
generally comprehended. Expenditures
To be made for peace purposes or for
reconstruction will require care and
patience If they are TO yield returns
under competitive business conditions.
They cannot be overhastily made, and
this will In itself ease the urgency of
the pressure for export financing,

eliminated there will remain very

WHY SOCKS HAVE CLOCKS"
They Were Originally Made, 1t Is As
serted, to Hold the Seams
In Hosiery.

It Is surprising how much of the past
still remains, more especially In regard
to the clothes we wear
On the backs of most gloves will be
found three thin strips. These marks
correspond to the fourchette pieces
between the fingers. In earlier times
gloves were not made SO neatly as
they are today, and the stitching of
the fingers was carried down part of
the way on to the back of the glove,
braid being used to conceal the seams.
To a practically similar reason does
the clock on sock owe its origin, says
London Answers. In the days when
stockings were made of cloth the
seams occurred where the clocks are
now displayed, the decoration being
utilized to hide the seams.
The little bow which will invariably
be found in the leather band inside
mans hat is survival of the time
when a hat was made by taking a
piece of leather, boring two holes
through 1t and drawing it together with
piece of string.
Handkerchiefs were not ALWAYS
square. At one time they were shaped
to the users fancy. 1t CHANGED that
this irregularity displeased Queen Ma
RE Antoinette, who suggested one win
ter evening at Versailles that a uni
form shape would be an indication of
good taste. The result was decree
by Louis XVI iSSuad In tha corI,, 10 NC
of 1875, enactlng that all pocket hand
kerchiefs should have right-angled
edges henceforward.
