A good deal Of fraud is practiced IN
selling antique KAYAKS" "Daghes-
tans" and similar rugs. for there are
hardly any Of these which are more
than fifteen years old. They are
'aged" artidcially, but you must I'M
derstand nevertheless that these rugs
are well made Of the very finest woods,
and the native dyes used are pure
and good. When they have been madc
they are lent In the village 70 'the
butcher. the baker and the candlestick
maker'-to any one, In fact, In whose
house there Is plenty OF trahlc. Here
the carpets are trampied upon and
made to look old. They are afterward
washed IN a running stream and then
dried IN the sun. And by these means
the rugs get an antique complexion
and a certain gloss which are much ap-
preciated. What may be called a
genuine antique is thus manufac-
tured and sold IN the bazaar for ten
times or twenty times the price for
which It could be bought in London

Do whiskers grow faster In hot
weather than in cold? The correct an
swer to this question Is, "They do"
BARRIERS say that there is an increase
Of about 20 per cent IN business dur
ing the extremely hot spells and that
all this increase comes from the men
who habitually shave every other day
instead Of once a day. Although hot
weather makes more business for the
chin polishers. they do not particularly
welcome t. Men are always more
irritable and harder to shave. This.
coupled with the increased speed Of
execution. makes the whole business
unsatisfactory for both the shaver and
the shayee.--Kansas City Journal
