History of the Wedding Ring.

A long time ago the wedding ring
was worn on the forefnger, and was
thiclSly studded with precious stones.
People who have seen the old pictures
of the Madonna in Rome will remem-
Der that in one or two of them there Is
glistening ring on the forefnger of
her right hand, but with Christianity
came the wearing of the wedding ring
on the third finger rather than the
first. The old story of there being a
vein that runs from that finger to the
heart is nonsense. Its use originated
in this way: The priest first put it on
the thumb, saying: sin the name of
the Father" on the forcing r, adding,
"In the name of the SOM" on the Sec
ond finger, repeating: SIN the name Of
the Holy Ghost;" and on *he third fin
ger, ending with "Amer," and there It
staid.

LITTLE WAR ON HATS.
Clerk Who Knew 1t All and the Clerks Who
Didn't Agree with Him.

Clerk Who Knew II All and the Clerks Who
Didn't Agree with Him.
He is employed in a wholesale house
in Chicago, and has a remarkably good
opinion of himself and all that per-
tains or belongs to him.
Some of his fellow-clerks had been
investing in new hats, and he could
not quite approve of them. So he
went out and bought a silk hat that
he considered just the correct thing.
What do you think of it?' he asked
of one of the other clerks.
We'll, l don't know that I quite like
it," replied the clerk, cautiously.
Like it, he exclaimed. why, it's
the latest thing out. l wouldn't be
found dead with hat like yours. It's
common. Every second man you see
on the street has one like it."
The other clerks decided that it was
time to retaliate. They took the negro
porter out and bought him duplicate
of the silk hat owned by the self-suffi-
cient young man; and when the latter
arrived at the store the next day he
found the porter working near his desk
with a silk hat on his head.
He tried TO ignore it, but before long
the porter looked up from his work
and exclaimed:
''Fo' de Lawd, eff you amt done gone
an boughten hat jest like miner''
The clerk abandoned his desk tenn
porarily, but wherever he went the
porter and his silk hat doomed up be-
fore him. Both are still looming up on
every possible occasion. And the other
clerks are simply watching the two and
saying nothing.

The Texas State fair is destined
to bring more people to Dallas this
year than any other Of the state
exhibits that she has gathered,
both on account Of the natural in
crease from year to year Of all es-
tablished enterprises of this kind,
and the wonderful productiveness
OF the state which has been so
heralded this year. That Atlanta
exposition, also, is certain to direct
attention to this south land and
Dallas will be fully advertised
there. San Antonio will miss it in
not having Fair Of her own this
year, but she will miss it second
time IL she takes no steps to be
represented at Dallas. This she
should not neglect.

plenty of relics here in the shape of
pieces of saints and certain of their be-

st. Peregrinus was martyred in Rome
by Emperor Commodus in A. d. 1856.
He was only seventeen years old, but
he did not finch while his body was
stretched on the rack, torn with iron
hooks, beaten with clubs and burned
with torches applied to his sides.
He breathed his last uttering the
praises of his Saviour.
The Christians obtained his body
and buried it in the Catacombs. There
