Story OF a Ring.

We hear q great deal about rings
nowadays. and nothing very good OF
them either. heard OF a ring the 9TH
er day that told astory--in fact, its own
story. The ring glistened on the finger
of washwoman- through the suds in q
tub, and thus betrayed a secret The
lady of a certain house in this city had
advertised for a laundress to come to
her house on certain days. The adver-
tisement was responded to by q neat,
rather refined-looking woman. When
the laundress had begun her work the
lady saw, shining on a shapely hand, a
pretty and peculiar ring. She request
ed the privilege of looking at it. The
woman hesitated a moment, and then
nervously held out her hand.
"That is a class ring" said the lady.
''It is" was the response of the
laundress as she turned her face away.
"Where did you get it?" asked the
lady, emboldened, perhaps, by the man.

That ended the interview for the
time, as the lady could by no means get

cause her SON wore a class ring exactly
like the one in question, and was a
graduate in the class of '75 at Yale.
She told him the story, and one night
he followed the laundress to her room,
in Michigan Avenue, where he found
an old elassmate and college chum por-
ing over some second hand law books.
He works in the daytime, and SO does
