MEANING IN ORIENTAL RUGS.
Significance Among Eastern Nations OF
the Colors Used.

Not only the designs but the colors
of rugs woven in the Orient are full OF
significance.
They represent national or individual
traditions, they stand for virtues and
vices, social importance or social ostra-
cism.
They are the result. says The Elec-
tic Church Magazine, Of the political
and religious histories of the countries
IN which they were made.
Tyrian purple is almost universally re-
garded as royal
Red was regarded by the Egyptians as
symbolic of fidelity.
Green has been chosen by the Turk
as his gala color, but he would not APP
prove its use in rugs where it would be
troddcn by the feet.

age soldiery of Spain.
When at the close or the last century
the reconcentrado lifted to heaven the
arms withered by famine and implored
the great nation that had won peace to
save him and his from destruction ana
despair, there was an answer at last in
the boom Of cannon. Brave ships cross
ed the water. The strong had taken un-
der the shelter of his might the weak
and downtrodden. The Cuban flag was
given the right to fly over free Cuban
people Out of conditions little better
than anarchy came the stable form of
order, and they who had struggled for
many a decade found their efforts
crowned with the freedom of their de-
sire. Then the benefactor withdrew,
leaving to an emancipa,ed people the
problem of their own destiny. That the
new republic should not have remained
quiet is not surprising.
Many Americans know little of the
Cuba of fifty years ago To them the
Gem of the Antilles has been but a spot
time when the United States, Mortified
at continued cruelty, drove forth the
tyrant. The cruelty was nothing new
in Cuban history; it had made Cuban
history. Before the climax that lower.
ed the Spanish pride and the Spanish
banner in the West for decades the
prayer for recognition as belligerents
went unheeded.
In just Revolt.
Cuba in revolt displayed a csncep-
ton of justice that would have been an
honor to any people. An early move
was the freeing of the slaves held under
Spanish rule directly in violation Of
treaty. SPANS pretense of emancipa
ton had been nothing more. BY royal
decree the slave was freed when he had
reached his Goth year, or yusr wnen
| he would have been helpless to care for
himself. At one time out Of 100000 ne
groes in Cuba 36S,000 were slaves, many
of these being natives of Africa. When
the revolutionists freed them a large
number became soldiers, and some won
their way to important command.
In 1926, but for the veto of the Unit.
ed States, Bolivar, valiant and futile
might have won the cause of Cuoa But
the cause was not killed. The South
American possessions of the Spanish
were permitted to break their allie
glance, but Cuba, suffering, oppressed,
crying out with a great voice and with
its blood sealing the sincerity of its as
plratiOns, was permitted TO anguish in
thrall.
In 1S4S the struggle for independence
took definite form again. At that time
Cuba was recognized as a republic by
Peru, and there was promise of coop
Grafton from neighboring governments,
but that of the United States could not
be won, and the promise was not full
filed. Yet with failure. and in the
face of opposition from those who might
have been neutral, and of Indifference
from those whose impulses should have
been friendly, the faith of the Cubans
never faltered.
while Thousands Persisted.
When $4,000 Cuban lives had been
sacrificed to the fury Of a falling des-
notism nearly 100000 Spanish had per.
shed on the same altar. AT one time
the Cubans overran the island from the
eastern extremity to Colon on the west.
