Worn Ont Rugs.

new York Letter: No Molly in fashion has
exceeded, or ever will exceed, the current craze
IN this city for antique, rugs. These articles
are brought from Asia, where they are woven
by hand, and where some are used by Mobam-
medans to pray upon. They are good exhibits
colors harmoniously into intricate patterns.
Or course, the work ia not 30 exact or symmet-
rical as though done by machinery. The
figures vary in size, tho shapes are q little
Irregular, and there arc other biemishes insep-
arabic from labor done with the fingers. But
the dyes are fast, tho wool astonishingly soft
and fine, and a few years of wear imparts to the
surface a peculiar and beautiful sheen. These
arc tie plain facts about the Eastern rug.
Mark the distortion which an artistic thing
suffers when subjected to popularity. II ago
oeautlties Il rug, then a rug can't be too di-
iapldated. That is tao reasoning OF the fools,
or their conclusion, for to concelel That they
reason at all is too much. The stores are
therefore stocked with rugs that are worn
tartadbare, that are ragged at tho edges aud
patched III the censcrs, that are extravasant in
price on account of these defects, aud that, il
feet aud knees of Mnssulmans aua other foul
orlentllS, ought to be so suggestive of ire
deenable nastlpesS as to be lntolerable in u
Christian parlor.
whisper responded a dealer to whom l
made that criticism; ina month or so l shall
nave a lot of antique rugs that your sensitive
stomach needn't roll 1T. They'll be, catered
and torn-bet Your life; but itfl be tho neat
and quisk work of machinery. 1 i'm orted a
cargo of fresh, new rugs and they're now
being worn ont hy machines. of my own inyen-
ton. LIS simply a carpet-bea,ing apparatus
ran ten times as fast and q hundred times as
long as it usually is to cleana piece of carpet;
and when a rug gets through is willing to swear,
solemn and conscientious, matthias been knelt
on by greasy Turka for q thousand wears.

F. c. MASON, OF Cleveland, O., has in his posses
sion watch on whose dial twenty-four hours are
marked Instead OF the usual twelve. And the
Ledder of that city gives the following interesting
account OF It's origin: Mr.. MasOn's uncle, Col G. W.
Mason, was In command OF a regiment Of soldiers
stationed at Ha!pers Ferry in 1864. The command
Ing general ordered him to move at o'clock a
certain day and attack the enemy. The order
simply said o'clock and Col Mason, thinking it
at that hour and began killing off the rebels The
Union soldiers, however, were defeated, and the
commanding officer was contaminated for not
ordering Mason and his men to the front at an
earlier hour. Mason said the order read 4 O'Clock
and he moved accordingly. The commanding officer
said he meant a. M, instead Of p. H., and, there
withdrawn. Col. Mason afterWard sent to an
eastern factory and had made twenty four O'Clock
Watch, Which ne said would do away with all mis-
takes and which he carried during the remainder
of the war;
