SIS Oriental Rug S45.OO

This rug is an excellent specimen of
Ghoirdes. 1t is 7 feet 7 inches wide and 10
feet long. 1t is in perfect condition, and at
alf-price only because it has fingered over
long.
There is also a 1925 Bijar for $75,
800 Saraband for $50, 5000 Gorovan
for 1925, a 1865 Serape for $3.50.
All these rugs and many others are re-
duced fourth to nearly half because they have
outstayed their welcome And for good meas

duced at least 20 per cent.
These rugs are on sale for the entire

them, as we know them, there would be
very few rugs left. (Rugs-Third Floor)
