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 "Don’t Glvo Up tile snip.” RUCHANAN, GA,.

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.” Hla Error.

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¬ nicipal Journal and Engineer. 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 Magazine. 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.

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.

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 8lnffCr wns affected dwp | v a!ld mn , 1( .

The hole for n tree should be made wide and deep nnd the bottom be filled with rich earth. The seeds of uonrlv all forest trees do best jf not allowed to become dry before planting. For the finest flowers sow pansy seed In the fall. Protect the young plants through the winter, and you will be well rewarded. 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¬ cess.
