HOW TO KEEP BUTTONS ON
WASH CLOTHES,

One of the trials OF the housewife
is to have garments come from the
laundry with the buttons pulled off.
In most cases they are not easily
matched and in any event good pearl
buttons are rather expensive now.
On little girls dresses, boys blouses
and women's shirtwaists many house
mothers have found it worth while to
work buttonholes on both sides. The
buttons are then sewed onto a separate
piece Of tape which can he removed
with each laundering.

THE PERENNIAL CAPE

Fitted coats come and fitted coats
80, but the cape goes on foreverl
Women absolutely refuse to permit
wraps of the cape type to go out of
sons.
In the first place, the wrap cut on
loose, flowing lines is much more uni
formly becoming than the fitted gar
ment. This may be regarded as the
most important reason why women
cling to the cape, or "wrappy," type
of coat.
In the second place. it is much more
dressy looking. In the third place a
wrap that loosely envelops the figure
is much better for the frock it covers
| than the snug garment that brushes
and muses. the costume it covers and
supposedly protects.

PLACING OF FURNITURE

To make your friends at their ease in
your home you must first make them
comfortable. Many persons are embar-
raised and put at a disadvantage
through no fault of their own by care
less arrangement of furniture. Rugs
and footstoels so placed as to trip
the unwary make many an entrance
so awkward as to spoil all pleasure
from the start. A fragile table holding
costly Chinese lamp and placed too
close to lounge invites disaster.

Moline lodge of Elks voted last
evening to stage a minstrel show

proceed with plans, engaging pro-
ducing company, arranging for use
of the high school or other suitable
auditorium, calling for candidates
for places in the cast, and putting
out tickets. 1t is likely that the
performance will be staged during

British Expected to Aceede to Amer.
lean Demands for Equal Share
on Indirect Shipments.

Washington, Aug. 5. - Shipping
board officials are now looking for
word from London that British ship
owners have acceded completely TO
the American viewpoint in the con-
ference growing out of the trans
portation of Egyptian cotton ex-
ports. A cablegram to the board
yesterday, announces that British
representatives had agreed to al
locate SO per cent of the direct ton
mage between Alexandria and the
United States, to American tonnage,
but were stiu opposing the demand
for an equal share of the indirect
shipments. This opposition, ship
ping board officials said, apparently
was based on a misunderstanding
and undoubtedly would be with
drawn as soon as the scope Of the
claim was made clear.

He secured the money although he
had to crawl on his hands and

smoke suffocation.
Rudolph Peterhoff, Moline po-
liceman, and his wife occupy a
rear apartment adjoining to the
kolb building. They were awaken
ed when a corner of the mattress
on which they were sleeping caught
fire. They had little difficulty in
escaping but were unable to save
any of their personal property.
Although the flames did not
reach the front of the bakery, sacks
of whole wheat piled there were
water-soaked. A thousand or more
bread pans stacked near the bak-
ing oven were badly warped and
rusted, but cooling racks in the
front of the store were only slight
ly damaged.
The most amusing sight OF the
fire was a blanket of dough that
had spread over the kneeding
table and part of the floor. 1t rose
to a thickness of from to II

was also covered with a mat OF
dough.
Damage to baking supplies AMI
equipment IS estimated at about
$4,000. Bags of -four piled in the
mixing room were watersoaked.
Damage to the ovens was thought
to be slight this morning but a
thorough examination may discover
extensive damages.
Cost of repairing the building In
which the bakery was located, re-
pairing the roof and reinishing the
second floor will amount to $4,000
The rear of the structure was burn
ed from the first floor to the roof
and the kitchen, back porch and
bathroom of the Seitz apartments
were ruined. The floor was burn

The repairs on the building
