The Pearl Rug Maker is a set of Steel Forms and Tines, on which the material is wound, then sewed through the centre to a cloth foundation—with any sewing machine or by hand—forming loops, which are readily cut open, making a soft, close pile or tuft a half inch thick, all on the upper side. Rags when used do not have to be sewed together. Small pieces are cut in strips, on the bias. A handsome Rug 2 x 3 feet, with a border, can be made in a day. Folks who have talked hard times for years must have an abundance of old clothes. The Pearl Rug Maker is the only invention that will utilize them without being obliged to go to further expense than a spool of thread. With the scraps of cloth, odds and ends that accumulate in every home, you can make Rugs that will adorn any parlor. If you do not have enough bright colored pieces in your rag bag, you can color them at trivial expense. (See our Premium Offer of Diamond Dyes.) With the Pearl Rug Maker many ladies make an entire carpet.The Pearl Rug Maker is made of Bessemer Steel, silver finish, and is put up in a handsome case, with explicit “Directions for making Rag and Tufted Rugs,” containing 14 illustrations, which will enable anyone to do the work.

It is really for most colors no more difficult to dye any article a perfect color than to rinse or starch such an article, and the person making the trial for the first time will be delighted with the result. They are warranted to give complete satisfaction when directions are followed. Now at a trifling expense it can be done in any house, and any one can save many dollars every year by the extra wear they can get from garments that have been renewed in this way. After a lady has once felt the comfort of having a faded or dingy dress or garment made as good as new by these Dyes, she will not fail to use them often for these purposes.
Woman dying cloth
COLORING HOODS, SHAWLS, ETC.
These articles are used by every lady, and are frequently made of white or very light colored material, and as a consequence very quickly become soiled or faded. Then they are usually discarded or given away. Now there is nothing easier than to color these articles, and thus make them as good as new. Simply follow the directions and they will come out all right.
The Diamond Dyes are unequalled for coloring Dresses, Cloaks, Coats, Wrappers and all garments; Shawls, Hoods, Scarfs, Yarn, Stockings, Carpet Rags, Feathers, Grasses, and many other articles of similar nature. Beautiful wood stains may be made from the Dyes.
List of colors: Yellow, Scarlet, Crimson, Magenta, Cardinal Red, Dark Green, Dark Wine, Plum, Black, Eosine (Pink), Bismarck, Old Gold, Orange, Maroon, Seal Brown, Violet, Brown, Dark Brown, Navy Blue, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Terra Cotta, Slate, Purple, Garnet, Olive Green, Drab Green. Cardinal, for cotton, Blue, for cotton, Yellow, for cotton, Green, for cotton, Scarlet, for cotton.
The Diamond Dyes of most colors work well on cotton, but for the colors specially mentioned above it is necessary to have Dyes specially prepared. In ordering, specify “for cotton,” if so desired. Price of Diamond Dyes, 10 cts. per package.
