are claiming the wrong lot or the right lot

unsatisfactory fact that he owns somebody

RAG CARPETS.
An Oid-Fashioned Industry Turned TO Ac-
connt in the Decorative Revival.

Perhaps it will sound odd to speak of rag
carpets as fashionable work, but specimens
of domestic weaving have been carried to
England by travelled ladies with other curios,
like Navajo blankets and Arizona pottery,
and the noted English women have taken to
using their wooden savings in this way. 1t
goes by the name of American work, and a
well made rag mat is not disdained at the
urrsrry neaside, in the smoking room ur, In.
deed, in my lady's chamber. Now there is
rag carpet and rag carpet, and the Bohemian
weaver down ON Chatham street will turn
you out very different niece of work from
the old rag carpet, with its stiff stripes and
bars. Cut your useless cashmere cloth or
flannel into strips three -fourths of an inch
wide clear through the piece; sew these to-
gether at the ends till you have p pound If
such strips, which makes q large ball. Fine
heavy cloth of mems wear is cut less than
half an inch wide, and the finer the strips
the more they make in weaving. A pound
and a quarter ball will weave yard of car

sewing with two or three yards of red, green
or yellow for every six or more for dark col

Mix bright color with every ynrd of dark

or, if you have enough Of any dark rich
color, You may have notified centre with
borders Of deep blue, black and deep yellow.
The strips can be dyed bronze, peacock,

If you want something in modern taste after
your carpet is woven, sew three or four
widths together with border of plain Ven
ethan or bright-fgured ingram bordering,
stain the edges of tho floor, and you have NJ
odd, handsome mat for your sitting room,
which is practically indestructible. Such
mats are advised for nurseries and country
sitting rooms, and no one, seeing them foi
the first time, would ever dream of CHASING
them with the humdrum rag carpets of old.
The smooth basket-work surface, the rich
eolors, vie with those of foreign mats, and
in point of taste well-chosen English home
made mat win please better than the cheap
red and green Turkish rugs, which, in fact
are the "rag carpet" of peasant homes in
the East. Let us show little respect for
the works of our own country now that for
r'zners have found out their merits for us.

THE ARCTIC WHALING FLEET.

The twenty or more whale ships which
came down from the Arctic Inst autumn have
mostly starte again for the same destina-

and the saturation of oil have ten

vessels get nipped in the ice, they may be

no use for anything but the screw steamship

BLEACHING A BLACK WOMAN.
Her Skin Turned White During Treatment
for Disease.

There is colored lady in this city who,
after having been for some time under a
peculiar medical treatment, is gradually,
from the effect of the drug administered,
being changed to white. The physician
having charge of the case was found and af
ter some hesitation volunteered to accom-
pany the reporter to see his patient. The
lady is the wife of mulatto man, ut one
time photographer in the city, but row
keeping a stationery store, and both arc
well known Mrs. Ball was born in Freder-
icksburg, Va, and is at present about sixty
seven years old. Three years ago after suffer
ing about seventeen years with an ovasian
tumor, she called in the doctor. Upon ex-
animation he found that to remove it in the
usual way would sacrifice life. The only
course, in his opinion, was to follow a
method of treatment that would give relief
from the intense physical suffering which
the woman experienced. With this in view
he began the administration of a certain
drug the name of which he withholds for
the present until he has completed the study
of the case and is ready to give the facts in
detail, with theories and deductions to the
medical profession, and through them to the
public. Shortly after the treatment was
begun he noticed white blotches appearing
upon the skin, which gradually enlarged and
extended over the face, body and limbs
Just at this time, too, the woman began ex-
periencing relief from her excruciating pains
and from that day to this has improved in
health, until she is now better than for
twenty years. AS though in progress
with her health, the blotches increased in
size until one-half of her body is as white as
the purust Caucasian. She was originally u
very dark mulatto. The portions of skin
still retaining their original color are cold
and clanimy, while the whitened parts are
warm and animated This change has been
very slow, as it has been going on for nearly
three years, and the transformation is only
half completed. Cincinnati Enquirer.
