——Exhibll oI Oriental Rugs.
Those who are interested in oriental rugs
will do well to visit the llowland. Stark
(.‘o.’s store in Bridgeport just now and
look at the line display which is on £‘Xlll-~
hilion. This exhibition is said by experts
to be at least twice as fine as the one of
last year. and all who saw that will un-
derstand what high praise this is. The
rugs have been colloctul with great care by
an export, and the entire lot will bender
ed at auction without reserve, beginning
Monday morning, September :34. The sale
will last three days regardless of Weather.
A catalogue is published for distribution,
vivingadescriptlvo list of several bun
drcd rugs. Those rugs are made by hand
with infinite patience and designs are oxe-
l'uted in this laborious way that can hard-
ly be distinguished from paintings. It is
a neural. process and almost a lost art. so
that the number of antique rugs in the
world is limited. Home of them are very
old but they are almost indestructnblo,
and after fifty or a hundred years of wear
are abaoluwlv as fresh as when new.
Many of them ware formerly owned by
princes, but the decay of oriental fortunes
has thrown them on the market. of
coarse at an auction. the prices are undo
terullued, but one who exercises a little
judgnu-nt can pick uparcnl treasure at
the price of an ordinary modern rug.
