FINGER RINGS.

l.H
Rings were in common use among the
early Saxons and British. Some of these
rings were OF excellent workmanship,
beautifully enameled. They wore the
rings on the third finger.
The Bible gives numerous instances
illustrating the Importance Of the sig
net ring; Darius sealed with his the
den oflions; Jezebel made use OF Ahab's
ring to seal the counterfeit letters or
dering the death Of Naboth.
One of the Oldest rings in existence
is that of Cheops, founder of the great
pyramid. 1t is Of gold, adorned with
hicroglyphics. The use OF carabei and
signet rings by the Egyptians dates
back into antiquity. They were made
of gold, silver, bronze, precious stones
or faience.
OF all ornaments the ring was the
first worn and mythologists tell an In
genious story to account for it's ORR
gin: Jove upon releasing the Titan
Prometheus from his rock Of torture
compelled him. as a souvenir of his ex-
pcriencc, to perpetually wear on his
finger link of the chain that had bound
him. All the Hindu-Alogul divinities
ure represented as wearing rings and
the gods of elephants are likewise
adorned.
