old-time rag weaves, was
very imperfectll grasped.
Woven only at home, and
woven very little at all,
rag carpets" grand
mother-style, were at that
time still used in kitchens,
but it was regarded as
proof of poverty to use
them elsewhere!
There were beautiful rag
rugs on the floors in Wash
ington's home at Mount
Vernon, woven in soft,
lovely harmonies of color
and pattern, probably un-
der the direction of that
capable housewife, Madam
Washington, herself.
In the famous Betsy
Ross House on Arch Street
near Second, Philadelphia,
tourists saw another hand
some rag rug which we do
not know positively to have
been woven by the skillful
hand that sewed the first
stars on the first American
flag, but why should it not
have been?
THESE things were re-
garded m os tly as
quaint curiosities; until

afterward reproduced and
copyrighted, under t h e
name of t he Martha
Washington" rug first
sold by Wanamaker's).
That was the beginning.
Rapidly the industry de-
veloped, and the weaver in
question soon had to make
the rugs by machinery,
thus reducing their cost,
and Wanamaker's was the
first store to take his prod
uct and create the popu-
larity and the popular price
of the Colonial rag rug.
Now they are seen and
sold in every store of con-
sequence and every town
of consequence.
But it is to this great
Store, naturally, that the
best and the finest rugs are
brought, and where they
can be selected in the lar
gest quantity and variety,
and at the lowest cost for
their values.
All the good managers
did not pass away with
Madam Washington!
We expect to meet a
plenty of them next Mon

room, and always for a
kitchen, they give admir-
able service
Especially these Wana-
maker Colonial rugs.
A Ii rag rugs aren't
- alike, except with your
eyes half-shut, and even
then, an observant finger
might detect differences in
the fineness of the weave
and the finish; and above
all, a years wear would
tell you something.
When you go to buy a
pretty cotton dress you
pick and choose for quality
and color. You don't take
"just anything"
VIII en- manufacturers
with high standards go to
make rag rugs, above all,
to make them for Wana-
makers, they select care
fully from clean, fresh
strips Of new cotton mate
rial such smooth, strong
and flexible textures as will
weave into fine, strong,
smooth and durable rugs,
and such colors as will
blend harmoniously into
attractive and dainty pat
terms and effects.
Although we have in the
Sale hundreds of rugs of
the good old ''hit-or-miss"
patterns, they are mostly
made according to the good
new idea of hitting it
rather than missing it.
These have the true Col
onial spirit, together with
the modern conception that
a thing intended to furnish
a home must be pretty,
even if inexpensive.
So these rag rugs, big
and little, include hundreds
of other mixed and blended
effects that are not hit-or
miss, but studied, with a
view to suiting any room in
general, but maybe a blue
or pink or a gray room in
particular.

THIS is our usual half
yearly disposal of
rugs, by which the
Summer purchaser benefits.
You see, in a great Store
like Z this the attitude
towards the stocks sug-
gests the answer of the In
teli1gent Native to the In
quiring Briton. The latter,
accustomed to much pomp
and state surrounding
Courts and Royalty, could
not grasp the informal and
business-like attitude of
the American toward his
ruling powers. So he haz-
arded the criticism:
"See here, you Ameri-
cans don't seem to think
much of your Presidents
''Ya-as, we do" drawled
the native, Eve think a lot
of 'em, but the tipe's short
between 'em. and we're
usually thinking h ard
about the next one"
WE think a lot of these
w fine, fresh, handsome
Summer rugs, each of
them the work of a first
rank manufacturer. and
not a iaded. store-soiled or
imperfect rug in the lot.
But although the Sum-
mer has no more than fair
lv started. with many of
the Summer homes not yet
opened. nor all of the rugs
we sold so fast last month
laid down, tCe are doing
some hard thinking, con-
nected with plans for the
season ahead. and the
space we shall soon need
for the new rug stocks that
will be flowing in.
These attractive Japan
ese rush and Colonial rag
rugs are not {eft-overs and
it IS our intention that they
shall not be left-overs.
They have therefore
been priced far below reg
ular values. Many are
fully half price. With
them. as stated in detail
in Columns Three and
Four. have been included
some excellent plain Klear-
flax rugs, of odd sizes,
priced at distinct reduc-
tions.
Any one of these floor
coverings is a good invest
ment, as there's no present
indication of regular prices
coming down for consider
able time.
But especially the Col
onial rag rugs represent
opportunity with an extra
size ", because their serv-
ice is not limited to the
Summertime only.
