sentenced Saturday to the penitentiary for
20 years tor killing his father and throwing
him in a cave, where he was found in q
terribly decayed condition several months

his father in cold blood, but that goods OF
peddler, who several months ago dlsap-
peared, have been found in his house, and
that Boyer killed him, also, for his
money and goods. A little .colored boy, who
worked on his farm before he was arrested,
also mysteriously disappeared, and every

RUGS.

An Oriental Rug as a
Christmas Gift is almost
unique in its appropriateness.
1t not only lasts a lifetime,
but may be handed down from
one generation to another, its
beauty not diminishing in the
least with age or use.
And, besides it gracefully
expresses the donors aesthetic
appreciation of the value of
these world-famed products
of the Oriental weaver's skill.
One must concede that a
fine Oriental Rug is as much
of a work of art as a fine
painting, who studies the ex-
quisite expression of the inn
aginative faculty in the COM
bination of forms in a sym
metrical design, with perfect
color-harmony.
We invite special attention
to our exceptionally large and
carefully selected stock OF
Oriental Rugs as being OF a
much higher class than those
found at the special auction
sales" and in the hands
of the wandering deal
ers, accompanied by varied
tales, of how they are enabled
to tell so cheaply. Our repu-
tation and permanence in bus
iness compel US to handle
Rugs as our other goods, and
70 protect our customers from
hidden faults and imperfec-
tions.
