THE RUG DESIGNERS
PATTERNS DESCEND FROM PARENT
TO CHILD IN THE ORIENT.
Reasons Why Animal Figure# Are
Rarely Seen on Persian Haas.
Prayer Rnji's of the Mohammedan#
and Their L'se—The Knit# of Sivas.
The designs of eastern rugs are often
the spontaneous outcome of the fancy
of the weaver. Sometimes they are
handed down from one generation to
another. In some cases young girls are
taught the design by an adult, who
marks it in the sand. At other times a
drawing of the rug is made on paper,
the instructor showing her pupils the
arrangement of every thread and the
color to be used. When all this has
been done, the pupils must make the
rug without looking at the drawing.
Persian rugs excel those of other
countries in artistic design as well as
In harmonious coloring. The Persians
seem to have a natural intuition in the
use and blending of different shades,
and in the designs that contain these
certain colors they achieve the happiest
results. It is really wonderful what
exquisite fabrics these people, born
and reared in ignorance and poverty,
produce.
The designs in Persian rugs are gen¬
erally floral, and in some districts, es¬
pecially Fars. the women weavers in¬
vent the designs, varying them every
two or three years. The Mohammedan
religion does not allow any direct rep¬
resentation of animal forms, conse-
quently rugs woven under its Influence
take floral, geometric and vegetable
forms. The Shiah sect of Moslems,
however, numbering about 15,000,000,
of whom 8,000,000 are Persians, do not
regard representations of animals as
unlawful. By the Industry of this sect
and that of Infidels and of all who dis¬
regard the law of the Koran animal
forms are seen on some Persian rugs.
The prayer rug was evidently Invent¬
ed for the purpose of providing the
worshipers with one absolutely clean
place on which to offer prayers. It Is
not lawful for a Moslem to pray on any
place not perfectly clean, and unless
each one has his own special rug he Is
not certain that the spot has not been
polluted. With regard to the purity of
the place of prayer Mohammedans are
specially careful when making their
pilgrimages, the rugs which they take
with them having been preserved from
pollution by being rolled up until the
Journey is begun or until the hour for
prayer arrives. It does not matter to
these followers of Mohammed how
unclean a rug that is on the floor may
be, because over it they place the pray¬
er rug when their devotions begin.
The Turkish rugs made at Sivas are
always woven of wool, and almost ev¬
ery hamlet carries on the Industry of ■
weaving in the homes. There are no
factories, the young girls and women
doing the work here as In other parts
of Turkey. Sivas rugs are In most
cases small, measuring about eight by
four feet, but in these years larger and
more attractive rugs are being made.
Even the poorest families have fine
rugs, for they regard them as valuable
property, to be sold only under the
pressure of great extremity. The weav¬
ers are so frugal In their manner of
ffylDg that their dally earning of 15 to

Smyrna Is only a mart for the sale
of comparatively Inferior rugs that are
made in the interior from the coarse
hair of the Angora goat. These are
woven in Irregular designs and. al¬
though not artistic, are largely sought
as coverings for the bare floors and to
add warmth. The weaving of these
rugs Is crudely done by girls and wo¬
men. Sometimes the loom Is primitive¬
ly constructed from the trunks of trees
The designs are very simple and have
either been handed down from enrller
generations or are supplied from the
city.
Yiiruk rugs are so called from a band
of nomads who dwell among the moun¬
tains of Anatolia. They have large
flocks of fine sheep and weave rugs of
firm, even texture. The colors are very
good, the field often of dark brown, or¬
namented with large designs.
About 200 years ago small embroider¬
ed rugs were largely made in Persia,
chiefly at Ispahan. These were prayer
rugs, and on each of them, near one
end. was a small embroidered mark to
show where the bit of sacred earth
from Mecca was to be placed. In obe¬
dience to a law of the Koran that the
head must be bowed to the ground in
prayer this was touched by the fore¬
head when the presentation was made,
and so the letter of the law was carried
out. The custom prevails. The Persian
women who weave the finest prayer
rugs seldom weave any other kind of
rug.—“Rugs, Oriental and Occidental.”

DISCOVERED BY ACCIDENT.
How the Faring; Valne of Asphalt
Was Brought to Notice.
All forms of bituminous pavements,
whether manufactured from natural or
artificial asphalt, are In fact artificial
stone pavements. The Industry started
with the use of the natural rock as¬
phalt from the mines in the Val de
Travers, Canton Neufchatel, Switzer¬
land. The mines were discovered In
1721, but it was 1849 that its utility as
a road covering was first noticed. The
rock was then being mined for the
purpose of extracting the bitumen con¬
tained in it for use in medicine and
arts. It is a limestone found impreg¬
nated with bitumen, of which It yields
on analysis from 8 to 14 per cent.
It was observed that pieces of rock
which fell from the wagon were crush¬
ed by the weight of wheels, and under
the combined influence of the traffic
and heat of the sun a good road surface
was produced. A macadam road of as¬
phalt rock was then made which gave
very good results, and finally in 1854
a portion of the Rue Bergere was laid
in Paris of compressed asphalt on a
concrete foundation. In 1858 a still
larger sample was laid, and from that
time It has been laid year by year in
Paris. From Paris It extended to Lon¬
don, being laid on Threadneedle street
in 1869 and Cheapside in 1870 and in
successive years on other streets-—Mu¬

No Limit to New Ideas.
There never has been a time when
the individual has stood for so much
as he does at present. There has
never been a time when Individuality
and personal Initiative brought such
amazing rewards. There never has
been a time when the Individual could
or did exert so much influence as at
present. There Is no Individual today
so Insignificant that, if he became the
medium of a new or potent ideal, he
would be prevented by uncontrollable
conditions from expressing his Idea
and reaping his just reward.
In all ages up to this man has been,
owing to his limitations of physical
force, a plaything of conditions, a slave
of bis environment Skiff and intelii-
gence were but two of the factors In
bis progress, bounded and restrained
by limitations to their employment
Now, however, with universal energy
at the disposal of each Individual, this
terrestrial sphere scarce puts bouuds
to bis field of Influence.—Cassler's

Fruit Acids Kill Germs.
A writer lu a scientific periodical
states that It Is not generally known
that fruit acids are germicidal. “The
juice,” he says, “of limes and lemons
Is as deadly to cholera germs as cor-
roslve sublimate or sulphur fumes or
formaldehyde or any other disinfectant,
It is so powerful a germicide that if
the juice of one lime or lemon be
squeezed Into a glass of water that Is
then left standing for ten or fifteen
minutes the water will be disinfected.
It makes little difference where the
water has been obtained or whether it
has been boiled or filtered.” As boiled
or filtered water Is not always obtain-
able this Is worth remembering.
What Ton Pot In Yonr Month.
It is through the mouth that most
malignant germs find their way into
the body, and therefore one would
think that it was hardly necessary to
warn people against the risks they are
running in using it as a sort of third
hand. One would imagine that hardly
any one needed cautioning against
holding money with the lips, and yet
an immense number of otherwise thor¬
oughly cleanly people Indulge in this
dirty, dangerous practice.

WHEN GARFIELD LAY DYING
A Pathetic Incident of Hi# Removal
to Long Branch.
A pathetic incident is related apropos
of the day of fasting and prayer which
was appointed by all the governors of
the United States at the time President
Garfield was removed from Washing¬
ton to Long Branch in the hope that
the change might help him to recover
from the bullet wounds inflicted by
Guiteau.
“Crete,” said the president to his
brave little wife about 11 on that
Thursday morning as the ringing
strokes from the belfry of the Episco¬
pal church almost across from the cot¬
tage reached his ears, “what are they
ringing that hell for?”
“That?” said Mrs. Garfield, who had
been waiting for the surprise. “That's
the church where we were when you
first came down. They're all going to
pray for you to get well,” and, falling
on her knees, she said, “And I’m going
to pray, too. James, that it may be
soon, for I know already that the other
prayer has been heard.”
From where be lay Garfield could see
the carriages draw up and group after
group go in. He could even hear the
subdued refrain of “Jesus, Lover of My
Soul,” as It was borne by on Its heaven¬
ward way. Thrilled with emotion, a
tear trickled down the president’s face.
Then he closed his eyes and turned his
face as a sweet woman’s voice arose
singing from one of Sir Michael Costa’s
oratorios. “Turn thou unto me and
have mercy upon me,” sang the voice,
“for I am desolate—I am desolate and
afflicted; the troubles of my heart are
enlarged. Ob, bring thou me out of my
distresses—out of my distresses—my
God.”
The people in the ch urch sat. almo st
8po Iibound under the voice, for the

The sweet william is a biennial, but
will sow their own seeds and come up
year after year, as do hollyhocks, thus
making them practically perennials.
One of the handsome perennials that
flower in July is the digitalis, which
lias long spikes of blue thimble shaped
flowers. It makes a striking clump.
The principal advantage in fall sow¬
ing of flower seeds is that the plants
grow stronger, root deeper and flower
earlier and longer than those from
spring sown seed.
The grape is one of the most desira¬
ble fruits to plant. It Is inexpensive to
get a start with, it bears early, it is
productive and easily managed, and
the fruit is delicious and wholesome.
Couldn’t Stttnd Satire.
A burglar, while attempting to rob a
bloated bondholder of Maryville, by
mistake got into the humble residence
of an editor next door. After unsuc¬
cessfully fumbling about for suitable
assets for some time lie was disgusted
to observe the tenant of the house sit¬
ting up iu bed and laughing at him.
“Ain’t you old Skindersen. the capi¬
talist?” inquired the housebreaker.
“Nary time.” chuckled the journalist.
“I'm the editor of The Screaming
Eagle.”
“Jerusalem!” said the burglar, look¬
ing at liis stemwinder. “And here I’ve
been wasting four precious hours on
this branch almshouse. 1 say. old quill
driver, you never poke fun at your sub¬
scribers. do you?”
“Not the cash ones.”
“Exactly.” said the burglar, taking
out his wallet. “Here’s six months’
subscription to call this thing square.
If there's one thiug on earth I can’t
stand, it’s satire.”-Tit-Blts.
Personal Element* of Saecean.
“Personality,” as it Is called, is a
thing apart, a light that cannot be hid¬
den. It is difficult to describe, being in
its nature variable. Often it is com¬
posed of one part talent and two parts
character, and he who has it may in
spite of other deficiencies command
success.
Large successes are attainable by the
union of aptitude and concentration of
purpose, coincident with opportunity;
the meeting of the man and the occa¬
sion, the suiting of the word to the
action, the action to the word; self
confidence, unflagging courage, abso¬
lute probity.—Heury Wattersou In Suc¬
