PHILADELPHIA, Monday, Oct Is. 1870.
An event in the Fine Art

An cNtlll III lliC lill AAlt
history of Philadelphia.
On the third floor Of our
store an Oriental Bazaar has
been created for the display of
a collection Of Textile and
other articles from the far
East. Our city has not here
totore seen very much of the
Art of the Orient, especially in
Textiles, and we are therefore
exceedingly proud to bring to
art lovers in Philadelphia an
exposition of Rugs and Carpets
from Persia and the tribes of
Tartary, from the towns OF
Asia Minor and the nomads Of
Syria and Arabia in variety
and interest far beyond any
thing yet seen here or in any
other American city save per
haps New York.
You do not need to take a
Ride to khiva," to catch in
spiration from the Fire Wor-
shippers or the Arabian Nights,
to float down the Nile taking
notes with a Howadji IN order
to be under the spell of the far
East. You are freely and cordi-
ally invited to enjoy the
Oriental Bazaar.
The elevators or stairs will
quickly place you under Ori-
entail influence. It IS 7oorfh
thinking about. Within this
enclosure you are surrounded
by textiles that are without ex-
ception antique. In color and
figure they are original. The
debasing influence Of cheap
French dyes is destroying
delicate touches of color pro-
duced in strange ways from
earth and roots, flowers and
vegetables-some are already
lost. Occidental taste was
slow in approaching the senti-
ment of Oriental Art, but now
that Europe and America are
demanding these rich old
fabrics the dreamy Oriental
succumbs to the occidental
tendency to shams and often
buys cheap dyes to replace the
sorts created by his ancestors
with infinite care and patience.
But that is too big a subject to
discuss here.
These Rugs date back dec
AIDES and centuries-none of
them are modern. AS you
look you wonder why you adj
mire them. The figures are
strange, the colors never weary,
and despite their age are clear
and bright. They grow old
gracefully, merely becoming
softer, more tender and richer
with thelapse of time. Strange,
too, the thought that they are
never made to patterns-no-
thing machinelike, mechanical.
All hand work, usually the
work of a single hand, they are
the outcome of the fancy OF
the weaver. And yet we call
the makers Barbarians.
There are Silk hangings SOC
years old from a Japanese
Temple-pedigree thoroughly
MISUNDERSTANDING many Otnef
things of deep interest.
You may dream here if you
will, it wouldn't take much I'M,
agination to locate the awful
presence Of the yelled Prophet
or some grim-visaged Turk,
Naigileh and all, on one Of
these grand old Rugs. But
yen can fill the place of Turk
or Persian, Turk or Turko
man if you choose to buy a
Rug.
And the sum of this all is
come and enjoy these things
nobody asks you to buy
them. If you are critic, col.
lector, connoisseur you are
very welcome, if you are not
and merely have fancy for
beautiful things YOU are Just

y TOUT men and lean
y men, tall men and
- short men-we can
fit and please them all.
Just at present we have
some nice, modest-toned
goods-just the thing for
those who have reached
an age where they care
nothing tor the more
gaudy patterns - but
there's no telling how
long they'll last. Better
inspect them now while
you can have your pick.
Later on will have
something to say about
OvercOats.

"ORIGINAL PACKAGES"

Iowa Towns Threatened With an Irrup-
son OF Saloons, Regardless OF Statutes.
FORT DODGE, Iowo., Oct. 21.-A syste
matte scheme on the part of the liquor
men of Iowa to bring back the soriginal
packages to legal life has been discov-
cred in this city. A number of the men
who were openly engaged in the 'origi-
al package" business last Summer re-
eeived circulars purporting to come from
the secretary of the State "Original
Package" Dealers Association, signed
by a prominent Council Bluffs liquor
dealer.
In the name of the newly formed as
sociatioc, every saloon keeper was urged
to contribute literally to fund to be
used in an attempt to secure an injunc-
ton restraining Iowa courts from pro-
scouting original package dealers under
the old prohibition law.
1t is claimed that the recent Kansas de-
cision gives good grounds for such an
action.

Sioux CITY, Oct. 21.-Original package
saloons are beginning to open here in view
of the recent Kansas decision. The city
authorities are arresting the proprietors

are at least 800 places where liquor is
sold, but these places will be closed up
by the city authorities, and only the re-

most artistic and attractive features Of
the popular newspapers, and tue house

ments OF each day as carefully as the
dealer or speculator scaDs the produce

leg innate business houses we'll under

honest IN their statements"
The advertising solicitor Of = news

and shrewdness, capable of presenting
his customers' lads" IN taking way,
while the compOsitor must display
them with remarkable skill and ingen-
