"One thing that | notice about the

THE LATEST IN RINGS.
An Augusta jeweIer Tells Of the Styles in Fin
ger Rings.

The fashionable rings at the present
moment are the duchess and the prin-
cess says Waterstr ieweler. The
former consists of three good sized
pearls. turquoises or other precious
stones set in a row and surrounded by
small diamonds. The princess is like
this but contains five stones of pearls
in a row set in diamonds. The banquet
or dinner rings are variety of cluster
| rings and are of no set design They
vary considerably in value and in rich
ness Of setting. We sell very few as
you may doubtless imagine.
"Turquoises lend themselves effect
hally to the sparkle of diamonds and
are therefore popular. while the iri
| descent fires of the opal make it be
! loved in spite of superstition.
The solitaire diamond. symbolizing
purity, is as greatly in favor as ever
for engagement rings. More solitaire
diamond rings are sold for engagement
! tokens than any other. though there
are instances where lovers insist on
having with the diamond a sapphire to
express constancy a pearl for limo
cence or some other stone expressive o.
a sentiment
Among the newest settings shown
this season are solitaire emcralds. rub
les. sapphires and other stones with
three small brilliants imbedded in the
shank of the ring on either side of the
stone. The light reflected from the brill
liant brings out the color of the centra
stone and adds to the beauty of thf
ring without adding greatly to its cost
Hoop rings continue in favor TheA

set in a row around the band. usual!

hoops can be worn with good effect.
