BUYING RUGS 1(1 CAIRO

It's a Risky Business For the Man Who Doesn't Know.

HURING ON AN "EASY MARK."

The 8tory of How a Rich American Was Worked by a Crafty Oriental Salesman Under the Mystic Spell of the Dim, Religious Light. Writing of "The Passing of the Antique Rug" in the Century, John Kimberly Mumford tells this story: It is beyond question cheaper to buy In America your nig and the Ingenious tale that goes with It than to wait until you visit Constantinople or Smyrna or Cairo or Tlfiis. They are much more skillful and insinuating over there. They have the advantage of local color and environment, and your common sense Is under the spell of the east to begin with. Here Is an Incident to illustrate. A party of rich Americans arrived in Cairo one day several winters ago on a. yachting trip and passed a week or more In sightseeing. One of them had

just finished a palatial bouse not far

from New York and throughout Europe had bought marbles and bronzes, woodwork and velvet for It with a

lavish hand. The journey to Cairo

was made in order to secure rugs.

What happened is best told in the words of a dealer in the bazaar, from

whom I bad It.

"There was a fellow In our concern," he said, "who was always buying nightmares, and I bad to work

myself black In the face to get rid of

them. The week before the Amert

cans came this chap had taken in a

shockingly bad pair of Klrmans, enor

mously big. new and, to my mind, utt rly unsalable. When the bead of the house saw them he held up his bands and shouted, 'Get rid of those things for a hundred pounds to the first person who'll buy them.' "So I rolled them up and put them one side,., Intending to send them to a commission man In the bazaar to unload. Next morning in came Moneybags from New York with his whole company. He said he wanted to see the best carpets I had, and he saw them. I turned the place inside outNothing pleased him, for the reason that I made the common mistake of showing him too much. He thought I bad something hidden away, ao be winked me over into one corner and told me who he was. 'Now, said be, I want you to limber up. I want the best, and I don't mind price if I set what suits me.' "I was in despair, for I had actually shown the man every carpet I bad. AH of a sudden I thought of these two freaks baled away the day before. I almost laughed in his face, but finally I pulled my mouth down and began salaaming and asked him why in the world he hadn't told me who he was in the beginning, then I shouldn't have wasted his time and abused his patience so. "He grinned triumphantly. 'I thought

We had a great big curtain of green plush, which we bung against the wall. Then we pressed the carpets out and put them up against the curtain. That, you know, is worth 50 per cent to the looks. Then we adjusted the lights and stationed men all around to look as solemn as worshipers. Nobody was to speak above a whisper, and every man was to murmur 'Mashallah!' at appropriate intervals.

Etiquette of Letters. Eighty years ago the etiquette of letters was far more rigid than now. Even the twopenny post was not considered good enough for correspondence addressed to persons of any standing. In her "Reminiscences of an Octogenarian" Miss Louisa Packe tells us that when ber father had occasion to write to Londoners in his own class of life the letter was always conveyed by a servant not for auy reason? of urgency, but because the post was considered a vulgar medium of communication for persons residing In the same city and only to be used for the conveyance of letters to the country.
