COAT SLEEVE BUTTONS
WHY THERE AND THREE

Why are three buttons on mems
coat sleeves? In tho United States
these buttons are purely for orna-
ment. and extending from each is an
imitation buttonhole. In England
the tailor actually works the button
holes. and the opening of the sleeve
has a flap and is really buttoned. A
Kansas City tailor asserts that the
fashion, a century or two ago, Of
having long cuffs OF lace was partly
responsible. When n was doing
anything but making bows. the lace
cuffs interfered and the tailors put
tho buttons on to fasten the cuffs
back. Another theory Is that a GER
tain English king. having equipped
his soldiers uniforms with beauti-
full lace cuffs, found the men were
using the latter for handkerchiefs
and ordered buttons TO be put on tho
sleeves SO hat the soldiers would
scratch their noses II they attempted
to make this improper use OF tho
lace. When tho lace disappeared.
the tailors forgot TO take the buttons
off. and they have remained ever
since.

think she had only one pair of shoe
and had to havo them mended. You
should have seen her when I went

look next Sunday at church."
Mrs. Grump's husband also won

the shoe repairing place he half ex-
pected to see some other prominent
church member brought down u peg
in his estimation. Almost every
seal was occupied by men smoking
or reading newspapers and women
gazing absently or dipping into a
novel.
The surprising thing about It,
Grump observed, was that they were
w~ell-dressed men and women, ex-
cept a man who seemed to be down
at the heel in more ways than one.
There was Mr.. Flubdub.. a promi.
nent business man. Next to him
was a merchant and another one
looked like a lawyer. Then in the
other row Mrs. Spruceup. and near
her an elderly who might
well be a school teacher.
1t was all so surprising to Grump
those coy little shops where ONT
waited in stocking feet while ones
shoes were mended. The chairs
were very comfortable, with red foot
rests on the floor. There was q
little rack with a newspaper ant
one or two novels. And for the
smoker a standing ash tray was pro
vided. Grump had a good mind &c

In Hollywood are seen as the seven
wives in the undermined version of
the ancient fable. which was adapted
to the screen by Sada Cowan from
tho play by Alfred Savior. and which
comes to the Rialto theater starting
Saturday.
When Il was necessary to make
the sc-nes Of the seven wives hang

Wood became thoughtful. Hanging
seven girls Is a ticklish affair, for
q slip might mean serious injury to
one of them.
Not desiring to risk the lives of
the girls, Mr.. Wood engaged Milba
X. Lloyd. celebrated English sculp
tress. who made a wax model Of
each. These models were used in the
hanging scenes. but were SO like the
originals that the difference could
