HOytRs OVER
LAUSANNE MEET|MG
Treaty Between Turks and Allies
Probable As Both Parties
Make Concessions

Lausanne.-An accord has been
reached between the Turks and the
allies and peace probably VIII be
signed within a week.
The conference has been in contin-
Gus session for more than three
months. For a considerable period.
the settlement hung In the baIanss on
the questions of the Ottoman debt,
concessions and the evacuation of Con-
stantlnople and other Turkish terri
tory by foreign troops. Both sides
were forced TO give way In a measure
at the end, and 1t was apparent at the
last session that a termination OF the
discussion was close at hand.
The United States objected to the
confirmation In the treaty OF contracts
entered INTO before the war which had
not received all necessary formalIties.
1t was argued that these were too gem
eral and too & and the principles
were liable to be applied to all sorts Of
unknown contracts.
The allies and Turks agreed or an
amended clause. specifying the con-
cessions TO which they referred, to In
clude the vickers-Armstrong and Tug.
klsh Petroleum company concession
and the French railroad concession In
AnatolIa. Whether these modifica-
tlons entirely meet the views OF the
United States remain TO be seen. At
all events, the Turkish Petroleum com
pany and French railroad concessions
are likely to be the subject of discus
slons by the various interests involved.

FLOWER BOXES.

According to w. j. Baker Of The
Brunswick Shop, 124 ". Pennsylvania
ST.. It Ia not TO early to lay away a
Christmas Brunswick"
The giving of things musical as
Christmas gifts has grown rapidly the
last several years and last year more
Brunswiclss were sold than ever In
the history of this store.
I'VE are already receiving our
Christmas stock and have provided
for the laying away of instruments
for Christmas delivery
AT present our stock is complete
In all models and we are inviting
early selections The Brunswick
makes an ideal gift as exclusive
features found only on the Bruins
wick enable the owner to have a COM
plete record library.
1.-THE Brunswick plays all records
without attachments and to that 1t
owes large part Of it's popularity.
Another feature responsible for the
round. full, soft natural tone Is the
atwood ampliher which is moulded
of genuine orange wood.
The aim of the manufacturers OF
Brunswick Photographs has been to
render true tone in their reproductions
and eliminate volume Of tone which
30 often causes harshness. Bruins
wick records also are enjoying a
wonderful demand and are recognized
for their softness and the absence
OF surface noise which has been prac-
tically eliminated
THE demand forl our dance selec-
lions has grown by leaps and bounds
Some of the worlds greatest dance
orchestras are recording exclusively
for Brunswick, including The Oriole
Terrace Orchestra, Isham Jones,
Gene Rodemich, Carl Fenton and
many others said Mr.. Baker.

FURNACE SUCCESS
DEPENDS ON CARE
Improper Firing VIII Cause
Much Dissatisfaction,
Expert Says.

Save coal and also your furnace by
being thoroughly familiar with your
furnace. Knowing how to operate
and fire furnace Is most important,
according to Daufel Bros. 1888
Hoefgen st., agents for the Sunbeam
Furnace.
A poor furnace handled intelligent
~ will often give better satisfaction
and outlast good furnace handled
improperly. Be sure pipes are prop
erly covered with an asbestos cover.
ing that will keep heat from escaping
and that the furnace is in good repair
before starting q fire.
If a furnace is properly fired much
fuel may be saved. Throw the coal
first to one side Of the fire bowl and
then to the other, leaving part of the
red bed of Goals exposed. This will
Ignite and burn the coal gasses in
stead OF sending them up the fiue.
Do\ not force furnace, as q fast
turning fire causes incomplete com
bustion and burns out the furnace.
Regulate the furnace by the darnper
and ash pit door instead OF the fuel
door, and be sure it is clean and
always kept that way. This will save
much trouble and a lot of dirt
through the house.
These are few important sugges-
tons offered to furnace owners which,
II followed, will provo very valuable.
Thine is getting short for furnace
repairs and calls are increasing daily.
Late orders are not going to have as
prompt attention as we would like to
give. We are able to furnish repairs
for all makes of furnaces promptly at
present" said Mr.. Daufel
