Carpets on Pavements.

Aniline dyes have not added to the
reputation of the carpets Of Persia.
At one time the only dyes used in the
Persian carpet industry came from in
digo, madder, and vine leaves. From
these were evolved many delicate
shades impervious to the action of
sunlight. With aniline dyes the colors
fade much more rapidly. In Persia
you may see new rugs spread on the
floors of bazaars, so that many feet
may tread on them. By such hard
wear-provided the colors are fast
the genuine article improves in ap-
pearance, acquiring an attractive gloss.
A Persian carpet of the best kind has
a marvellous number of stitches, and
a hearthrug of pure silk may cost
hundreds of dollars.

Plain, honest John Edgerly drove
the plow steadily and cheerily. 1t was
not much of farm plat his parents
had left him. but it brought him in
living.
More than once he had been tempt
ed to sell out and invest in some small
business in the brisk, promising city.
He had become cured of that, how
ever, during the last month. Several
venturesome young fellows like him
self had tried metropolitan ambition
and had returned home seedy, dis
consulate and sick of an experience
that had turned out hollow and un-
friendly.
Then, too, just that bright, lovely
morning John had made up his mind
to something. He had been keeping
company with Vera Brooke for some
time back. Vera was modest and hum
BILE as himself, but he believed she
liked him.
"I'll settle down." ruminated John
contentedly-"yes, that's the best
way"
1t looked so to him. Vera would
make an ideal wife. Her folks were
poor, she would appreciate a good
home. Small as the little homestead
was, it was comfortable and fairly
furnished. Love would beautify it,
They would work together and save,
and some day they might own better
place in the town, like Judge Grinnell
and his naughty empress of daugh-
ter, Ivy.
I'll ask Vera this very evening""
resolved John, and was happy in the
thought.
"Whoa!"
John,, just finishing a furrow,
looked up to discover buggy halted
just beyond the fence. In it sat the
very object OF his recent thoughts
the judge and his daughter. The
former leaped from the vehicle as if
John was his greatest friend in the
world. Miss Grinnell smiled at him
"a thing she had never done before
"Hello!" muttered John, what's
up?'
The judge hurried through the fence

The First TumbIers.

The glasses we now know as turn-
blers differ widely from the drinking
vessel to which the name was first ap-
piled. These appear to have been of
metal or wood, and from their peculi;r
shape seem to have served as per-
petual reminders to pass the bottle.
One authority says they were called
'tumblers" because they could not be
set down except on the side when
empty; and another derives their name
from their original shape, rounded at
the bottom so that they tumbled over
unless they were carefully set down.
