trade figures, country by country, sug-
gests that the 1927 reduction occurs
in a larger degree In manufactures
than in the natural products. which
had begun to show declines In prices
in the closing months Of 1920. In the
case of the United States, the exports
of finished manufactures show a ran
Of practically 80 per cent In value ln
1921 when compared with 1920, while
manufacturing material shows re
duction Of Al per cent. and foodstntrs
33 per cent. In the United Kingdom
statements, the exports Of manu-
factures in 1921 show a fall Of 4S per
cent. while those Of the group FOOD
and drink" show q fall Of but u per
cent. In nearly all the countries Of the
world whose chief exports are manu-
factures, the per cent OF reduction IN
| 1921 is far greater than that Of the
countries whose chief exports are agrt-
| cultural products. In the 10 principal
countries In which manufactures form
a large per cent Of exports. the fall
OF in their aggregate exports In 1921
Is SO per cent and in the 10 countries
whose chief exports are agricultural
products, the 1921 reduction is but 20
per cent when compared with 1920.
The whole world was compelled to buy
food and manufacturing materials In
1921, while those who desired to econo-
mize in their purchases Of manufac-
lures were better able to do 80 than
in the matter Of food or even manufac'
turing material, and hence 1t happens
that the percentage Of reduction In
the value Of manufactures entering
international trade In 1927 Is material
ly greater than that Of food or manu-
featuring material.

Often the wild flowers had noddeo

outside her glass home; she was afraid
that some one would know that she

for she supposed that Jack knew II

flowers about it.
"They will be sure to tell 1t to some
Of the flowers standing near the dool

the door open."
The truth Of the matter was thai
Jack knew nothing about the stately
relative growing inside the hothouse

her. for he was quite happy and salts

Bobbed Hair Was Worn In
Egypt 1890 Years Ago.

Philadelphia.-An examina-
ton Of Maud" latest acQuisl-
ton of the Philadelphia CONNER
cial museum, has disclosed that
she has bobbed and curly hair.
A rumor that the hair had start
ed to grow revealed upon ex'
animation thet it was just as
long as 1t was when she arrived
at the museum several weeks
ago, showing no tendency 10
grow beyond the approved
length.
However, it was said to have
disclosed that bobbed hair was
in style-at least, among the
elite-in Thebes $500 years ago,
for MAUD" is a white-faced
mummy, and Is believed to have
been a priestess Of the tenn
pie.
MAUD" is a trifle haggard and
shows her teeth, but In spite OF
her more than 1900 years sleep.
her hair has lost none OF Its
curl.
It was explained that the name
of Maud had been bestowed tenn
porarily upon the mummy until

tanned what the ancient

there was another Jack not far from

there really is vast difference be-

changes our precise mode Of having
breakfast or dinner, and another limo.
