sleeve-you will easily find jeweled ring
or rings on her fingers. Jewels we had
none before, but we prize them just the
same. AS to the wearing of rings, even
gentlemen are aften seen with a thick
gold ring made out of an old Japanese
coin called t'keban.' The study of the
introduction of new custom is interest
ing. Insthe case of ''snow-wfite pillows"

we adopted everything from the West as
it was We did not have sheets for our
beds along with that, but eleanness rec
commended itself to the Japanese, and the
custom was readily followed by those
who took a fancy to it. AS to kissing, it
is rather delicate to touch on, but it cam
not be dismissed with a general state
ment that .'in affection and love the jap

All depends upon circumstances. Gener-
ally speaking, we shun the eyes of the
public to be demonstrative, or to seek the
occasion when all can join with US. Kiss

strange to us, but no one who knows about

The Crescent

The crescent symbol Of the Mohamme-
cuiiar religious opinions and ceremonies.
1t was not originally symbol of the
followers of Mohammed at all, but was
first used by the Byzantines. Thousands
of coins have been found in all parts Of
Turkey which date back to the time when
Constantinople was known as Byzantium,
and on each of these the symbol Of the
crescent appears. proving conciusively
that 1t was in use as an emblem among
the people of that region long before.
Byzantium was oyerthrown and its name
changed to Constantinople. The story OF
the origin of the crescent symbol is as
follows When Philip OF Macedonia be-
sieged Byzantium he mad planned to
storm the city on certain cloudy night,
but before his arrangements We're com
pleted the moon snone out and discov-
cred his approach to the besieged citizens,
who accordingly marched out and re-
pulsed his forces-something which would
have been impossible In the darkness.
Afteer that event all Byzantine coins
bore the symbol of the crescent moon,
which was always alluded to as the "sa :
