SEWING on SHOE BUTTONS.
ProSaic Task, Yet There Is n Right
and a Wrong NAY.

While sewing on shoe buttons seems. and
probably il. a simple matter. there ia a
right and wrong way TO do IT, and
whether II is done one way or the other
makes quite 4 difference in the long run.
Most people provide a long thread. which
is passed from one button TO another "a
the sewing goes on. When one button
breaks off or wears ont the thread with
which IL is sewed gradually works loose,
and soon the next button IS missing. In
this way three or four buttons may be-
come loose AT once and may come of
within few hours.
If instead % sewing with long thread
the buttons are put on separately and the
thread Is fastened securely after each out
tor. there IS less wear and drawing back
and forth OF the threads as enc walks. and
IL one button becomes loose OF is lost al
together no other button is IN The least
affected. Some ladies' put strong cord
through the eye Of the button after IL is
passed through the shoe snd sew !. firmly
on either side II the eve. Il Is better TO
use short pieces Of cord or ordinary round
shoe lace. Each short piece holds a but

Things Which Have Made Tall Build
inGs Popular I'm America.
En- cheering Ma

Engineering MdSdZUle
In the tall building it Is emphatically
"a condition. not a theroy." that con-
fronts us. The many-storied office build
ing is necessary product of certain eco
nomic factors which have operated in
spite Of the architects. and more intensely
In the United States than elsewhere. This
is what has made il SO peculiarly an
American product. or these economic
factors the cost of Lana. so commonly al
legged as the controlling one. has really
been the least important. Land in parts
OF Paris and London is as costly as in
New York and Chicago, but the fifteen
story office building has never come into
vogue there, while, on the other hand.
buildings Of ten or twelve stories are not
uncommon in American cities OF the sec
ond and third rank. where land Is rela
lively cheap. The causa causans of the
sky-scrapinG monstrosity is to be sought
in the drive and hurry of American BUSH
nes life. and in the accompanying Ameri-
can propensity TO save time and labor.
The "sky-sCraper" is, O huge labor-saying
and time-Saving device.
Each building is almost complete city,
often comprising within its walls banks
and insurance Offices. postoffice and tele-
graph office, business exchanges, restaur
ants. club rooms and shops. The business
man can provide himself with clothes,
shoes. cigars. stationery and baths; re-
ceive and dispatch his mail and telegra ms:
speculate on Change: Consult his lawyer
and architect in their offices. and trans
act hts own buslness-ali without leaving
the building in which his office is located.
The express elevator which shoots him
up TO the sixteenth story or drops him
with bre6thless speed TO the basement is
a product OF this same American haste
and economy. and without the elevator
the tail Office building would be an impos-
siblity. II Is the triumphant success of
the "sky-scraper'' as a time-saying in
veniion which has made il so conspicuous
and insistent an element In our American
architecture.
