KEEP YOUR AUTO IN REPAIR
IT Is criminal to drive an auto which

make sure that all Of the parts are in

Defective steering gears have
caused many autos TO overturn and
pin their occupants beneath the car.
Do not take a chance by driving
fast If your tires are nearly worn out,
a blowout may be responsible for a
bad accident
Defective brakes may cause you to
lose control Of the auto while going

Keep the horn in order and use II
whenever a warning OF your approach
is needed
Make sure that your emergency
brakes are working pedestrian or

RUTING ORIENTAL RUGS.
CARPET bazars Of Turkey and Per-
I STA have a great attraction for the
foreigner. Selecting an Oriental car
pet is not so simple a process as
choosing a parlor rug in this country
over here we seize upon a pretty pat
tern in a color to match the wall

In the Orient, all responsibilities
rests with the buyer. A carpet is laid
before him-a beautiful tapestrylike
design in melIowed colors- In this
country It would be an insult to the
store to scrub a bit Of color with a
wet handkerchief to test the dye. Yet
this is a part Of the buying ceremonies
in the eastern carpet baZar, and eN-
Dected by the salesman The implied
suspicion OF the articles worth is
often justified by a smudge Of dye
left on the cloth after the experiment
To omit testing the cOlOrs, or 10
neglect TO examine the softness
smo0thuess and finish, all with pro-
fessiOnaI air Of skepticism, is TO be
marked by the salesman as an ana
teur. He viii then manage to get rid
Of a cheap, machine made carpet at an
exorbitant price. merely by declaring
it Of great value and pointing out its
points Of merit
An oriental carpet, like a violin,
grows more valuable as IL becomes

first place Carpet merchants Of the
east, like violin makers, try TO simu-
late age in various ways Carpets
whose cOlors are too brightly fresh
are exposed TO sun and dust. and even
laid down in the street where traffic
effectuaIly removes all traces Of new
ness. The eastern shopkeeper thinks
nothing Of such methods which a
more astute occidental might practice,
but which he would never acknowl-
edge
GullibIe foreigners make the orr
entail rug business profitable. Even
IL he discovers that he has been
cheated. the foreigner Is not unhappy.

There is enough for home requirements and for all the allies will need, leav-
