MASONIC BUILDING. 334 BROAD ST., ROME, GA. CORNER fourth AVENUE. THE HUSTLE? OF ROME, SUNDAY OCTOBER 7 1894 MRS. LARK- SPURS RUG. Hhe was ill m bed but nhe wax better now, and casting eyes around thermal, sin said “Ah me every thing is getting shabby m h re. As soon us 1 am »ble I shall tiesbou things up tor the winter. I H be sure to be havi-'g tbes head aches again and c .mpany will be coming in ami then I’ll he moi tiffed to d- ath.” I hen contarnplatievly she add ed “L)< me see I can’t affo'd a carpet so IT get some new window shales sash curtains, a nrw rug and to my self a pretty dressing S'equp an | then I bha'.l feel mor c like the lady that I really am,” 9 With these charm mg reflections Mrs, Larkspur fell esleepj and when she awoke she w«s well. '1 he next day putting on her black jet ted cape -nd her half soiled kid gloves, ijßhe took her little long black silk bag, and went shopping. She had no difficulty in finding some nice poles aud shades of a ■‘soft indifferent tint” she said then she wanted a rug. The first store she entered had juatgotten in new carpets and the clerks was very attentive even after he found out that was only a rug she wish ed. He threw down a big pile of different “thipes and colors some she said were too large others were too stnal’’ifinally he found me of middling size like the bear in Lit tle Silver Hair. and this one she said would dot. ’was lovely aud w mid match the shades. The clerk sent it up to her home. She hastened to try the effect on the floor of her bed chamber. It was of a Japanese design and had duh reds and greens in it and the figure on it was something like a section cf an Eastern temple. Mrs. Larkspur said “it was like the Ori ent and when her head ached she would look at it and imagine that she was in a foreign clime and that the very idea of the tup and change of air would help to soothe her head.” So that night she went to bed content with her days shop ping. The next morning she awoke and the sun was streaming across the rug in mottled patches. Her first thought was of a big red cow “Oh 1 me,” she exclaimed, “there is nothing absolutely nothing har monious in that coloring. It is sick ening, it makes the carpet look five years older than it is. The walls even become dingy, all the pictures are cheap looking and gaudy. Who would have thought that I could have selected such a fantastic thing. My sakes it is equal to a circus.” So she hastily arose, dressed, ate breakfast. There was a firm resolve in her bosom. She was going directly up town, that rug must be changed. She secretly hoped however that another clerk would appear so that the frailty of the female sex might not be unduly commented upon . However assuming a bold front and putting on her new bonnet bill summer front smile which was generally reserved for Mr. Lark spur she sailed into the store and the same affable young man met her. In dulcet tones she exclaim ed “Oh ! I —that is—l—in fact the rug I bought from you does not match, —you know my room,” then with great bravery “would you mind exchanging it?” Perfectly calm the clerk replied “Certainly not madam just step this way. ” Then he pulled down roll upon roll of goods in that line. Finally Mrs. Larkspur said,“really they are all just lovely but these four” pointing to the floor “are perfect. Really I can't decide.” Thenwith great generosity the clerk said take four of them home and m ike your own selection. Mrs Larkspur said ’‘really that is very kind.” So four were put in her carriage and she drove home in a pleasant frame ufmiud. When she reached home she was met at the door by her 1 ittle son Jimmie, and as the rugs were thrown upon the hall floor she exclaimed with motherly fond ness “Come dear see which is the prettiest and the one you like best shall go in mothers room” The child carefully surveyed the four and then he said, “ fake this one.” It was dark blue with rep spots and dim brown rings on it She embraced Jimmie and mid kis -s gurgled’ you are mama’ sown lit rle comfort That was the very one she liked the blue in it will go with the blue of the carpet and the blue roses on the mmlle," So rug no 2 was duly placed be fore the fire place. Mrs Larkspur had a sister, who when she saw the rug exclaimed “ My my what an ugly rug why didn’t yougH something stylish" Mr» Larkspur did not answer at al. but wiiuu she was butlcniug Jimmie's night gown she said ‘son mama is not c-rtain that the rug is pretty after all What do you think?" Jimmi° answered ‘‘Now m ima you said I could p.ok it out and I'm the one that has to look at it and 1 like it." “Wrll well" she replied let it go and th- n she said to 11 <r self “it is much worse than the ol.r-r one execrable, but I will be unselfish it makes my I'ttle boy happy I'll just endure it for Jimmies sake.*' With this pious reflection she re tited. Next morning when she awoke Mr. Larkspur was standing in front of the fire with the hair-brush in his hand, looking intently down to the floor and he was saying to himself “By jingo, it is exactly like it.” “Like what? What is?’ incoherently and drowsily queried the lady. “Why Lucy Larkspur! this new rug of yours is just like the old red and blue dressing I wore all that winter when I was so ilitewith the hip joint disease.” She aarted at him in dismay and almost screamed “Oh? jdon’t say that, it’s horrible. Now every time that I look at it, I’ll think of the time when we all thougut you were going to die— John don’t say that,” there was a suspicion of tears in her eyes and she added : “You were so cross when you wore that dressing gown. Everytime I have the headache now, I’ll remember what a bear you was.” The beaded cape, the half worn kids and the shopping bag were again brought into requisition, for Mrs. Larkspur said it would kill her if she had to look at that rug all the winter. She came into the store this time softly, humbly. A large stout man, a new one approached and she said timidly, “Can I see the proprietor of the store? Is he busy? I want him junta moment,” and she nervously fumbled her silk handbag. “Yes madam he is engaged with some ladies just now can I see you ” “I—l—wanted him,” she mur mered, ‘ ‘but have you time are you sure you are quite at leisure?” “I am perfectly at leisure what can I show you?” Mrs. Larkspur feared that clerk No. 1. might overhear her conver sation, and tell his wife of her changeable disposition, so in a low voice moving behind some large packing boxes she whispered “just step here.” The large man obeyed and his face wore a wondering amused ex pression. She looked down, swallowed, cleared her throat and said it is about a rug. I want to exchange it. Clerk No. 2. smiled kindly per haps he felt relieved and said. “Cer tainly Madam. ” But, she inter posed, “If you arebusy just let it go. I went insist uponyour show ing me any more. ” “Busy, Madam what am I for but to wait upon the ladies.” Then she explained in order that she might bdperfectly honest. “You do not know, perhaps that I have already exchanged it and am still dissatisfied. It was out of har mony with my surroundings and feelings.” she helplessly admitted. With a kind smile he answered. You were perfectly right to come again our stock is large, and I know how ladies are. Things must match. With that he led the way to the back of the store he pulled down about forty rugs and she really did find one that suited. It was a soft cream with brown leaves scattered over it. ’Twas like n spring in the Autumn with dead oak leaves floating and shim mering on it’s top in the sunshine. Mrs. Larkspur knew when she liked a thing so she took it home and it did not make the carpet look a bit older. She said “it quited her nerves just to look at it, and she did not care how soon Nothing in This World Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be measured by the cost of its production or by its value to the consumer. We are talking about an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the . first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It's so cheap and so good you can’t afford in this day of progress to be without it. There are other papers possibly as good, but none better, and none just like it. It prints all the real news of the world—the news you care sor —every day, and prints it in the shortest possible space. You can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day's work too. It is an independent paper and gives all political news free from the taint of party bias. In a word—it’s a complete, condensed, clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the largest morning circulation in Chicago or the west —125,000 to 140,000 a day. Prof. J. T. Hatfield of the Northwestern University says: “THE CHICAGO RECORD comes as near being the ideal daily jour nal as we are for some time likely to find \ on these mortal shores. ” Sold by newsdealers everywhere, and sub scriptions received by all postmasters.
