Early Wedding Rings.

The wedding ring was not always
a plain gold band. In olden days it
was deliberately chased and bejewelled.
Then it was worn on the first finger
Of the right hand. A curious survival
Of this custom is to be observed in
some parts of the country, especially
in the remoter sections, where the en-
gagement ring is worn on the first
finger of the right hand.
The wearing Of the marriage ring on
the third finger Of the hand came into
use with Christianity. Sentimentalists
ascribe the change to the growth Of
the superstition once current that a
vein ran from the heart to the third
finger
It is probable that the religious
ceremony of the early Christians led to
the change. The priest who perform
ed the ceremony put the ring first on
the thumb, saying, TN the name Of
the Father and on the first finger,
adding, "and of the Son." and on the
second with the words, "and of the
Holy Ghost" With the amen the
third finger was reached, and there
the ring was put on to stay.

New Window praperies.

Russian lace is the best liked for
window draperies. Always in the deep
ecru color, with the heavy linen lace
set in, they are at once beautiful and
serviceable. This lace is all hand
made, but it varies in quality. There
is an outline of heavy cord in the lace,
and the interstices are filled in, in the
less expensive varieties, with linen
braid, while In the more expensive lace
there are the regular lace stitches. The
former even cost more than many peO-
pie would care to pay, ranging from
$12.50 up to $50 a pair, while for the
others one may pay as much as 5000.
There is a new feature in the pat
tern of the Russian lace this year.
There Is flower with raised petals
after the style of the roses in some
of the fine point lace. There is the
foundation flower in the body of the
lace and then another scalloped circle
or another flower set above this and
in the center a small button of the
| lace.
1t is a matter of taste whether there
| is an edge of the lace with more or
| less elaborate corner pieces or the edge
with broad band Of insertion set in
some distance. Perhaps the former
are a little more attractive, but the
latter are sufficiently good, and it Is
| lllctL lHcy Will lldllS OStlC1s
| Those with the heavy edge and corners
are apt to sag somewhat.
In other draperies, with the bob
| binet foundation, the Marie Antoinette
and the Renaissance are curtains that
are always satisfactory. The Marie
| Antoinette have the patterns in an ap-
plication of braid, while the Renais-
sance are of the lace inset. In some
of the draperies the two styles are
combined, the sprays of the Marie An
toinette appliqued and the leaves of
| the Renaissance inset.
There are inexpensive varieties of
the Irish point draperies, which come
as low as $4 All the patterns in the
| Irish point, simple or elaborate, are
| cut out by hand, and in some curtains
| there is lace work set in in open work
| parts of the design.

1t is entitled 1.-The Other Crown" and
gives the reverse of the medal of roy
atty as usually seen by popular eyes.
On the steps of the throne is seated a
7 woman with wrinkled features, seen
| only by the king. Her name is Care,
the Eternal and Devouring. Under
the crown of gold is another, invisible
to all eyes but his, and inflicting cease
less wounds on his brow. 1t is the
Crown of Thorns. This Is the general
idea of the poem, which is in peculiar
Montenegrin meter.

Lady Henry Somerset has written to
her friends in Canada that she will
attend the annual meeting of the On
tario Woman's Christian Temperance
union, which will meet in Toronto dur
ing the last week of October, and will
give an address on that occasion, but
that her physician will not allow her
to speak anywhere else in Canada. It
is expected that she will have some
thing to say about the prohibition tam
gle in Canada, and great interest is
felt in her views upon the subject.
At one time, it may be remembered.
she was regarded as not being quite
sound on the prohibition question,
and her supposed disloyalty to the
