Each district has its own patterns aud songs. After each knot ths? ends of the yarn are scissored ofT to form the pile. In a close woven piece like a Kirman, measuring a mere 5 by S feet, there are 400 knots to the square Inch. As the weaver's speed is about three knots a minute, four years of continuous labor would be required on pitch a rue. Within that time some fingers would Mop weaving forever: others would go on with It. AYas it any wonder, the rug hunter asked me. that no two old rugs, even from the same village and the same household. ;vere ever just alike? A bereavement ould induce a greater unconscious use of white; a bridal would turn the weaver's thoughts to scarlet and victories of war to yellow Local environment, family happenings, removals from town to desert and desert to mountain, would each have effect. Gossip of harems, the tinkle of silver anklets, the alarms of brigands, the elatlons of religions, all would go Into the rug. Then," I Interrupted the hunter, ' if they still dye and weave as of old. rugs are being made now that eventually will be beautiful and valuable?" If the west were willing to 6ay to the east, "We will give you five or ten years to make a rug." if It would say that, then age and gentle wear would do the rest. But the weit won't. It has mansions in Increasing numbers to fit out at once. So It has introduced aniline dyes and machine carders and spinning Jennies and collective weaving acd is otherwise bustling production.

TESTING HIS TONGUE. The Unhappy Experience of a Young Married Woman. A young married woman in Brooklyn puspected that her husband was indulging In wine. .She determined, however, to say nothing till she had confirmed her suspicious. In conversation with her bosom friend she said she would give anything to discover the truth. The frieud mentioned that a man even slightly intoxicated cannot pronounce words of length. This gave the young wife an idea, which 6he proceeded to put Into execution. 1 When the yonng women met again, the suspicious wife announced that the worst had been ascertained. She burst into tears and took from her hand bag a paper, which she handed to her friend. "I gave him this," she sobbed. The friend read from the list the following words: "PhiloprogenitlTeness, disproportionableness. s pseudaesthesia, phthisis, parachronism, hypochondriasis, photochromy, syncategorematlc. "And," added the unhappy wife, with a fresh sob, "the wretch missed nearly all of them:" New York .Tribune. Patty: Gold Medal Flour U very h! cheat quality Iatuia.

THOUGHT THAT THE MAN WAS INSANE AND BECAME ENRAGED WHEN THE YOUNG WOMAN HASTENED AWAY FROM HIM. No rirrcst has yet been made In the ease tesnlting from (lie brutal assault made Monday v.'gb.t. upon Miss Katherine McKoim iu fror.t of her home 01: South Foiu te -nth street. The polk".; are still diligently at work on the ft.se a:ir it is probable that a suspect will be taken into custody within a st i ; i timr. No definite clue as to who tin assailant is has yet been obtained, btr Tie pobce are confident that they wid be able to loctite him. it. was reported this morning that t'n police had th.; New Paris bloodhounds at work last evening, bur Sergf ant McManus denies this. He states that be worked Hie greater part of yesterday on the ease but says that ho v pot assisted in this work by dogs. "It i-. my opinion that Miss McXteio'c assa'lant had no real motive in hi.: at rack. 1 think that he is a man wiio is me-.ifal'y dc-ranged. When he followed Miss McKone Mo- day right, to ;.!obably became enraged because she hurried away from him and then struck lmr in the head," stated Sergeant McManus today. It was stated today, that a few days before the assault made upon Miss McKone. an unknown man followed a yo tng woman to her home ou South Fourteen! !i street and for several ho irs walked back and forth in front of the house. Occasionally lie would gaze into a front window. As a result of th gash Miss McKone received in her forehead when si.- fell against the veranda of her heme after being struck by her assailant it was necessary to take six stitches in closing the wound. She has about recovered from the injuries she received but. she is still in a highly nervous condition. All the women in the east end of the city are greatly alarmed a.s a result o' the attack made upon Miss McKone and the police have been asked by a number of people to do everything in their power to apprehend the assailant. The Srr.eil of th3 Dawn. Of all hours of the day there is none like tbe early morning for downright good odors the morning before eating. Fresh from sleep and unclogsred with food a man's senses cut like knives. The whole world comes In upon him. A still morning is best, for the mists and the moisture seem to retain the odors which they have distilled through the night. Upon a breezy morning one is likely to get a single predominant odor, as of clover when the wind blows across a hayfleld or of apple blossoms when the wind comes through the orchard, but upon a perfectly still morning it is wonderfnl bow the odors arrange therms elves ia uprtgnt strata, so that one walking passes throagh them as from room to room ia a marvelous temple of fragrance-, American Magazine

Graceful and Beautiful, the Bird la m Nincompoop. To the mind of the average farmer nothing which walks on two legs Is quite so stupid aa a hen. lie la mistaken, though, for there still remains that beautiful, graceful nincompoop, the common swan. The swan Is so stupid that It will stand in the shallow part of a pond and allow the water to freeze round its legs till the Ice is so thick that It cannot lift its feet and It is stuck fast. Not infrequently owners of theee handsome but witless birds are compelled to chop away sufficient ice to make it possible for them to withdraw their Imprisoned feet. The stupidity of the swan in this respect Is emphasized by the intelligence exhibited by ornamental ducks when the weather turns cold. As night comes on and the water begins to freeze the ducks begin swimming In a wide, well defined circle. Round and round they go during the entire night, keeping all the water within that circle free from Ice, so that when the day dawns they can float about and doze in the sun. Ducks are always most active during the night and choose tbe day for tleeplng. Rut to return to the swan. If you find one of these birds some distance from the water and startle it, the swan will rush a few feet toward the pond and then drop down on the ground and try to go through the motions of swimming, apparently unable in Its fright to realize that It has not yet reached the water. Neither is the common swan a good fighter. The black swan, although one-half its size. Is invariably the victor in the combats which are sometimes engaged In and generally kills its antagonist. The black swan usually provoke! the f ght. too. for It is rather a quarrelsome bird. Washington Star. Seed Potatoes Seed Oats Essex Rape Lawn Seed Garden Seed Seed Corn Prices Right
