RAREST RUG IN THE WORLD
Beyond Price Because It Was ths
Earliest Piece of Pile Weaving
ti Come Out of Asia.
A rus that Is dated Is mure valuable
than one that Is not, and because our
knowledge of early wenvint is so
meager the earlier the date the more
valuable the nig. A date subsequent
to 1S.MI does nut add much to the
worth of a rug, while a date in the
Eighteenth century might double It;
a Seventeenth century date would be
sure to do so, and It' we could Hud an
other rug of the Sixteenth century
earlier than the Ardehll Mosque car
pet Its value over all undated piece
of equal merit In other respects wight
easily be threefold.
Inscriptions ndd to the value of a
rug in proportion as they give infor
mation concerning the place or char
acter of the weaver; but as most in
scriptions lire merely verses from the
Koran or more often from some Per
sian poet we do not often get nrjcb
help from that source.
More important stlH ns a source of
historical Information is I lie character
of the design. To the pnuileed eye
It can a tale unfold ami sometimes
elevate an ordinary-looking rug to a
peak of eminence. For example, there
Is in the Kaiser Frledrlch museum In
Berlin a Utile rug that would not get a
bid of $10 If dlspluyed for sale In the
window of a New York department
store. Yet It is beyond price, und the
museum authorities even refused to
allow It to be loaned to the Metropol
itan museum, the risk, of .the ocean
voyage being thought to bo far too
great to be Incurred for such a pre
cious piece.
It Is an ugjy little brute, but It is
perhaps the earliest piece of pile
weaving out of Asia. Moreover, Its
design connects it willl Chinese pat
terns and symbols of the Twelfth cen
tury, Mongolian color schemes of the
Thirteenth, Caucasus weavlngs of the
Fourteenth and Italian pulntlux of the
Fifteenth, ltarlly and historical In
terest alone endow this rug with 'su
perlative value. Arts and Decor-utions.

years ago, arrived in La Grande last

.former friends and also on business.
jMr. Moore has returned from a two
j mouths' trip in Kurope recently and
! graphically describes t he conditions
tin parts of Kifroiie, especially I'oland
and nearby stations. "The lower
, cla: ses are practically ibsi it ute hi
