The Significance OF Rings.

1t is understood that gentleman
who desires to marry wears plain or
chased gold ring upon the first finger
of the left or heart hand. When ne be-
comes engaged the ring passes to
the second finger. After marriage it
passes to the third finger. If, however,
the gentleman desires his lady friends
to clearly understand that he is not "in
the market" and does not wish to
marry at all, he wears the signet upon
his little finger. This will inform all
ladies that he is beyond reach. With
the ladies plain or chased gold ring
on the little finger of the left hand indi-
Gates mot engaged" or ready for an
offer. When engaged the ring passes
to the third finger of tho right hand.
When married the third finger of tho
left hand receives the ring. When n
young lady desires to defy all suitors
she places rings--one on the first and
one on the fourth finger. A writer on
the subject of rings says: Though tho
ring of gold has long been looked upon
as q necessity in tho marriage ceremo-
ny, it is by no means indispensable, and
civil marriages may be celebrated with
out it. The Puritans abolished the
ring, or, rather, tried to do so; they
looked upon its use as superstitious and
of heather origin. Quakers gener-
ally object to the ring on account of
its heather origin, but the ladies of that
persuasion have shown decided pre-
ference for its continuance on account
of the invidious position in which a
married lady might be placed for want
of il. Wedding rings are placed or
the left hand to typify obedience. The
converse is probably the reason why
the engaged band Is placed on the
third right-hand finger of faace, who
still possesses n large amount of free
dom, and frequently exercises her pow
er in an arbitrary manner. "--Byo0h'W

| Ned grew red and uncomfortable.
Tho bird, rebelious ut his confinement,
struggled hard to get free.
Noting the boys discomfort and his
shamed face, new suspicion entered
Jacks mind.
Med" he said rather sternly, "what
have you been doingP You have been
playing some trick with Spock. Where
Is HEP"
Ned did not answer but dug his fists
into his eyes, and began to cry.
"Tell me at once. Ned!" Jack con-
tinued. "Where is my birdp"
''Hcre I am" came in muilled ac-
cents from Ncd's pocket, this time
loud enough for Ellis to hear whore it
came from.
With n sharp exclamation he put his
hand gently in tho boys pocket, and
drew the poor, trembling little prisoner
out.
Jack pressed his lips TO tho soft tiny
head, look of delight chasing the
anxious shadow from his face,
Ned stood silently by, afraid TO go
without one word of pardon from Ellis,
his blue eyes dimmcd with ropcntant
tears, his mouth still quivering with
suppressed sobs.
Jack" he said at length, plead
ingly sorrowfully, Twill you forgive
mop"
Ellis started; for moment he had
forgotten the child; now stern frown
settled on his brow, and he said very
gravely,
II did not think Ned, my little
friend, would ever become thief.
You know how much | love my bird;
how sorry | should have been to have
lost him; yet you enter my home, and
steal the only thing | care for. y
"a am sorry-indeed | am. sobbed
Ned
Eyes, now. But suppose | had not
returned in time, might have looked
in vain for Spock, and you would have
been laughing at my misfortune. | am
disappointed, Ned, very; and | hope
for the future you will keep away from
my home"
"Oh, no, jack Don't say that. Let
me still be your friend. You will never
find me so ungratoful again. Forgive
me-"
Elis's face softened and he placed
his hand on the child's bowed head.
81 will pardon you this once" he
said "but if find you attempting to
take Speck from me by dishonest
means, you will never enter my door
again. DO you hcarP"
''Ycs. Thank you, Jack. You need
have no fear of my ever forgetting"
Ned answered
Ellis smiled cheerfully, and with his
bird pcrched upon his shoulder, entered
the cottage happy at having found his
pet
Come in, Ned, and take tea with
me- he called to the boy, who fingered
outside.
Ned gladly accepted the invitation,
nor did he ever attempt to obtain Speck
AGAIN.
