Oriental Rugs. Some facts respecting the most beautiful and durable floor coverings known. [Information supplied by John H. Pray, Sons & Co., 658 Washington St., opp. Boylston St.] [Second Article.] When Homer wrote the epic Iliad and the Odyssey, the use of carpets, or as the Latins afterwards called them, tapetes, had become in a measure common among the higher classes. In that day they were usually white or plain in color, rarely of various colors. The now long lost purple dye of the Tyrians was even occasionally used as a coloring. Ptolemy Philadelphus, on the occasion of a remarkable banquet when even the couches were golden, spread 200 of these purple carpets of the finest wool. And with the pattern on both sides, one under each couch, and according to Callixenus, his biographer, hid that part of the floor still bare with richly embroidered rugs. The walls, too, were not improbably decked with still choicer specimens of the carpet weaver's art. The Romans made constant use of the tapetes, not only in the form of rugs and carpets, but also in that of tapestries. Their houses and temples, walls and floors, tables and couches were splendid with them, and their trading ships brought them from the East, just as ours to to-day. Long rotted are the tapetes that Greek and Roman civilization used; dust are the carpets that the Venetian doges raped from the long slumbering East, for the adornment of those marvellous palaces of theirs – palaces that the Adriatic's waves still caress; gone are the rugs that Moorish warriors brought with them when they stamped their oriental architecture upon the Spanish country; and yet in Persia, at the shrines of Koom and [?], covering tenderly the tombs of long dead monarchs, there are even at this day tattered fragments of wonderful workmenship, silken threads and knots that once formed carpet coverings to the marble death chambers of those mighty [?] kings who lived and ruled hundreds and hundreds of years ago. One might search all Persia and, of course, find no other specimens of this marvellous carpet weaving art, (art that may be as old as man), that can compare with these fragments, in point of age. Nor, for the sake of that art, does one need to do so, for the modern carpets of the Orient, made after the old designs and patterns and in the same way, never equal the old – why no one can positively say.

Next week, Monday Evening, October 28. First Joint Appearance of Messrs. E. M. and Joseph Holland under management of Mr. Richard Mansfield and supported by members of his stock company from the Garrick Theatre, New York, presenting their instantaneous and enormous success "A Social Highwayman" dramatized by Mary T. Stone, from the story of Elizabeth Phipps Train in Lippincott's Magazine. Regular Matinees Wednesday and Saturday. The New York critics are for one unanimous and unreserved in their praise, as the following excerpts amply prove: "A Social Highwayman" is incomparably the most interesting play the present season has thus far produced *** Not only was the play extremely fascinating, but the performance, too, was in every sense admirable". – Herald. In "A Social Highwayman" Mary T. Stone has given us a play more in accord with true dramatic art than any other produced in a decade, and it possesses the merit of originality.*** The play is a novelty. – Telegram. Whoever made the play deserves much credit. It affords the two Hollands the occasion they required for the display of their delightful skill and art. It held the audience steadily." – World. Don't fail to see "A Social Highwayman." This dramatization of a novel succeeds because **** it doesn't define heart throbs with a foot-rule, or deal out emotions with a quart measure." – Evening World. And a dozen more just as strong.

The latest triumph of the glovers art is the new pique walking glove for ladies shown in the window of Centemeri Glove Store introduced last autumn and received with great favor. They come in evening as well as street shades, and being fine as the finest kid, can be used for almost any occasion; will last an entire season with hard wear, and what is more remarkable and pleasing, hold their shape to the end, and yet the price is but $1.35. With such qualities and at such a price is it any wonder that they found instant favour, especially when you consider the poor quality of the average glove sold even in the high-priced stores?

That fountain of perpetual youth, about which Ponce de Leon sang, and of whose location people ne'er were able quite to get the hang, was farther north, maybe, than he or any other pilgrim thought. As late discoveries would show, if folks would read that which they ought. In sands of Florida he sought in vain to find the mystic pool; what if to Northern realms he fled, where airs were bracing, climate cool? In old New Hampshire's granite soil, if he had fled from climate hotter, he might have found the magic spring in Londonderry Lythia Water. Arkansas Traveller. Shillaber's Gout. "I never think of a man with the gout but I remember the funny remark of Ben Shillaber – Mrs. Partington, you know." "Yes, I know. But what was the remark?" "Why, that he inherited the gout from his wife's relatives." "Yes, that was funny. But, by the way, what has become of your gout?" You couldn't get your show on the last time I saw you." "I had twinges of it pretty badly, that was a fact. But I became careful about what I ate and drank, and took to drinking the Londonderry Lithia Water – from the famous spring in New Hampshire you know. This limestone water out here is bad for rheumatism and gout. Granite is the stone, and I think there must be a solution of granite as well as lithia in this wonderful water to add to its effectiveness. I think this Londonderry Lithia would cure gout even if inherited as Shillaber's was. And it is good water to drink as a preventative as well as a cure." – Siftings.

Why? Because he foresaw over a year ago the great demand that would later be made for choice oriental rugs, and he purchased hundreds of bales at the then ruling price – nearly fifty per cen. less than the same goods can be purchased for today. Adding a fair margin to the cost, he can and is selling to-day precisely the same grade of fine oriental rugs and carpets at one third less than the same goods can be bought of any dealer in this city. His line consists of some choice old examples of the weaver's skill, as well as the finest in modern work.
