c o Rings.
A History Of tAs Use OF HI. wen-Knov


Ornament.
The practice OF wearing hnger-rings
has been almost universal from an early
period in tho worlds history. There is
y tradition which ascribes their inven-
ton to Tubal Cain: and the old Latin
author who gives currency to the story,
speaking OF the wedding ~circlet, says:
Tho form Of the ring being circular
that Is to say. round and without end
impartcth this much. that mutual love
and hearty affection should roundly flow
from n to b other. as in the circle,
and that continually and forever" Tho
first authentic reference to finger-rings
occurs in the Old Testament where
Genesis xxxviii-) mention Is made Of
Judah's signet-ring. That they were
also in use among the Egyptians at that
time is evident from the forty-first
chapter of Genesis, where we read of
Pharaoh taking of his own ring and
putting it upon Joseph's hand. when he
made him ruler over all the land OF
Egypt"
Tho hands OF female mummies. found
in the tombs Of Egypt are profusely
covered With rings: tho wealthy ladies
OF that country wearing costly ones
~uPOh hGoAA SNCE1 huRGE. HuIlS IuGlE
poorer sisters had to content themselves
with circles OF bronze. glass or pottery.
The ancient Chaldeans, the Pcrsinns,
and, according TO H~erodotus. the Baby
lonians wore rings; and it is probable
that from Asia they were introduced
into Greece. In the later Greek legends
the ancient heroes arc spoken OF as
wearing them, and at a more recent date
every freeman throughout Greece seems
TO have had one.
Tho earlier rings appear to have been
used not SO much for ornamen as for
the practical purpose OF afixing seals;
but later on they became merely orna-
mental, and were set with precious
stones The Romans, who are believed
to have derived the custom from the
SabineS, wore sigaet-rings Of iron-as
was the case with the Lacedemonians
and every freeman had the right to
wear one.
Ambassadors in the early years OF the
republic used to wear gold rings as part
Of their official dress; this jus annuli
aurei being afterwards extended to
Chief Magistrates. Senators and. later on.
to equities Emperors werc wont to con-
fer this right OF those whom they wished
TO favor, and the privilege became grad
ua;ly moro and moro extensive, until in
the time Of J%ustinian all Roman citi-
zens could avail themselves of it.
The later Romans used to wear many
rings upon their fingers, some aver hav-
ing different oncs for summer and win
ter. while the height Of '~dandyism"
was reached by those who never wore
the same ring twice, but threw it away
when once it had done seryice.-Notes

THEY LOVE SWEETS.

How Broad Is Made In Different Coun-
tries OF Asia.
Tho bread Of different Asiatic nations
Is worthy Of mention. In China, India,
Japan and Corea by no. means all the
people live upon rico. In North China
much wheat IS used, and Northern India
Is one OF the best wheat-growing districts
OF the world. The Chinese boil all their
bread instead OF baking it., or IL baked
at all 1t Is Drowned after boiling. In
: Egypt tho bread of tho lowest classes Is
largely made OF sorghum seed, and in
North India and North China millet is
largely used. Both Chinese and Japan
csc are fond OF sweet cake, and in Japan
o=o OF the most popular cakes is almost
exactly like our sponge cake. 1t Is said
to have been brought over from Holland
by tho Dutch Christians when they came
to Japan centuries ago, and you will now
find 1t all over tho country Tho Turks
are very o OF sweet cake, and the
sweet-cake peddlers Of Cairo and Con-
s~tantinople arc tho noisiest OF their kind.
II Is tho same with candy as il is with
cake. Some OF the best candy / have
ever eaten bought of a pig-tailed mer-
chant In tho Chinese city Of Peking. He
had nut candy Of all kinds, and he told
ne he imported some Of his nuts from
Mongolia for his shop. The Smyrna fig
paste is noted tho world over, and YOU
will find it in every confectioner's store
In tho country. Turkish nugat is one of
tho favorito daintics Of tho harcm, and
1t tastes better when you eat it fresh at
Constantinoplo than whom 1t Is six
months old and Is sold in America. At n
dinner which C attended in upper
Egypt we had q course OF candy between
n of tho other courses, and VIZ
had at least ten desserts during tho meal.
