the state department for an opinion on
such a transfer.
There was evidence Knox added.
'that the American syndicate felt or
knew japanese capitalists would not care
TO consummate the purchase of the lands
without the approval of the Japanese
government and that in view of the loca-
ton OF the lands in question the i'm

give such approval unless assured the
transaction would be unobjectionabe to
the United States.
This department replied that it was
difficult to answer the inquiries made.

About Buttonholes.

Even such simple things as buttons
and buttonholes require proper treat
ment to insure neatness.
When buttoning or unbuttoning gar
ment. forcing the buttons across the
width of the hole will soon tear out the
latter.
For this reason. buttons with only
two holes are better than those with
four, aud should be so placed that their
holes will be on a line with the length
OF the buttonholes.
Some women place buttons with four
holes so that only two holes need be
sewed through those of the opposite
corners-thus making them last longer
than if all four were used.
