History Of the wedding RInr.

A long time ago the wedding ring
was worn on the forefnger, and was
thickly 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 forefinger Of
her right hand, but with Christianity
came the wearing of the wedding ring
on the third finger rather than on the
first. The old story of their being
vein that runs from that finger to the
heart is nonsense. Its use originated
1t this way; The priest first put it on
the thumb, saying: "In the name of
the Father" on the forefnger, adding,
in the name of the Som" on the second
finger, repeating, SIN the name of the
Holy Ghost" and on the third finger,
ending with Amen" and there it
staid.
