Weaving of Artistic Rug as
Old as Greece Itself

Rug making Is as old as Greece it
self, but it was never made CONNER
cial item, and it was rare indeed that
a weaver could be persuaded to part
with his rug. Greek rugs are of two
kinds, the heavy ones used in winter
and the light ones used at all times.
In the beginning the designs were of
the simplest, but later the Greeks bor-
rowed floral designs from the Persians,
which loan was amply repaid with the
development of Grecian art. Venetian
rugs are also very rare.

Violin Maker Manufactures
Riddles With Pocketknife

Material of strange description con-
tributes interest to the productions of
an eccentric Ohio violin maker whose
instruments are noted for their ornate
carvings. Extremely simple tools are
used by the workman an old pocket
knife with nicked and rusted blades
being one Of his favorite implements.
In spite OF this, the instruments have
an excellent appearance and good tonal
qualities. Wood taken from the heart
of a partly petrfied log dug up in an
eastern state forms the back of one of
the extraordinary violins. Another I'M
usual instrument has back made
from one of the drawers of bureau
brought to this country from, England
shortly after the historic voyage of the
Mayfower.

A SONG OF LOVES


Through branches of their leaves, Sereft
The sunlight glitters golden;
The moss with velvet clothes each cleft
In ruins grim and olden;
On falling towers the ivy strong
All signs of wreck effaces:
The streamlet sings its sweetest song
Across the stony places;
When moonless is the wintry sky
Then brightest is the starlight;
Beyond the breakers fierce and high
We see the beacons far light;
The snowdrop rings its silver bell
When snowdrifts shroud the meadows;
The winds their sacred secrets tell
Behind the evening shadows.
And so. sweetheart, when thou art old
And sad and worn and weary,
When all the world is growing cold,
And all the land looks dreary.
My heart will follow then the lead
OF star and moss and river.
And love thee best in greatest need
Forever and forever.

Cotton Review

New York, November 15-The break in cotton goods adversely to the extent of forcing some offerings of few wide print cloths at concessions varying from i2c to 1c a yard below the recent top asking prices. This development did noth- ing more than confirm the conservative with which leading commission houses have heen viewing the sharp upward flight in prices.
 The supply of many domestics is un- doubtedly short for normal requirements and robbers have been bidding freely to cover their requirements for spring. Per cales have been bought on basis of 26 cents yard for light colored A 64x6os, or lc q yard higher than printers last quotations.
 Other staples are firm and very high and the demand had been broad. A set back following such a drastic financial change is anticipated, but as mills are fully sold ahead and good grades of cot ton have not been grown freely, the trade .s inclined to look for a maintenance of prices, especially on standard branded finished merchandise.
 Flannels and blankets are being offered for the fall of 1920, prices to be named next year. and some of the large opera tc~S have been laying down orders and arranging assortments. Many goods have been withdrawn from the market and others are at value owing to the closely sold condition and the desire of agents to do what they can to stabilize prices

New Orleans, November 15-The opening trades this morning were ir-
 regular, December showing an advance of f5 points while later active months opened at a loss sealed down to 32 points for May The market displayed
 nervous energy on both sides resulting in unusual activity for a short session
 and wide fluctuations in prices. Values ranged within a limit of 57 points for January and 73 to S5 points in the other active months. and closed quiet at a net decline of 52 to 55 points on early positions and so lower of March and
 May.
 Notwithstanding the really bullish cotton facts, such as the discount of futures under spots, the absence of any top-crop or prospects for such and the
 greatly increased. exports compared to
 last year. there is a reactionary influ- ence that dominated the market during
 the week, and the disposition to inject international politics in the security market was reflected in the weakened
 position of cotton. Analyzing the spot quotations you find there is a mixed
 situation, as in discounts of futures. Quotations for spot range From 42c at Memphis to 125 points down in North

New York. November 15.-The pes sinIism which has permeated Wall street through high money rates in duced considerable liquidation ana short selling during the past week Today's market was under the same influence It is noteworthy that aD- sorption of contracts py trade sources has been conspicuous on each decline.
 From the ability of the spinner to pay very high prices. also from the posi- ton of the south to hold and the size of the crop the situation is just as bullish as ever During the coming week it is improbable that call money rates will approach recent high levels, consequently the worst is probably known in this respect, therefore from that source there should be no fur ther bearish sensations The peace treaty may be voted upon before next week and if the public regards the result favorably the influence upon markets will likely be very buoyant. When shorts in cotton turn to cover , it is probable that a sharp upward
 swing will develop.-Orvis Bros. & CO.
