ain France, necklaces were not worn by
ladies until the reign Of Charles the Seventh.
That prince presented one Of the precious
stones-some say Of diamonds - to Agnes
sorel. The gems were probably uncut, per-
hsps unskiIlfuily set, for the lady complained
that they hurt her neck; and comparing It to
an instrument OF punishment, she denominsted
the ornament her cdrcGh, /. e., carcsnet. How
ever, as the king admired it, she continued to
wear the Jewel, saying that one might surely
bear some little Inconvenience to please those
we love. The fashion was Immediately adopt
ed By the ladies Of the court, and soon became
general From that time the necklace has
been more or less worn. Sometimes, as in the
reign Of Catherine de Mediei, pearls were all
.he fashion; and the pictures Of that queen, Of
the celebrated Diane de Pottiers, her rival,
and Of the fair Marie Stuart, show how re-
cherchs were those ladies in this respect.
Under Marie de Msdici. pearls continued in
favor, not only for necklaces, but every other
ornament; dresses were covered With them,
and illsts and strings Of pearls were mingled
with the trssses left to flow loose on the
shoulders. Under Louis the Fourteenth dia-
monds superseded pearls, and were used with
like profusion. Diamond ririercs took the
place Of strings Of pearls.1

srhe Rsbbis assert that Ewes ears were
bored when she was exiled from Eden, as a
sign Of slavery and submission to man, her

way to make their masters atone for this
humiliation; the latter must pay dear for the
diamond badges Of their wives servitude.
Since then, rot money alone have these pretty
