A New Device to Guard a Ring.

There are various causes for changes
in the size of the fingers, which simply
means the loss of flesh between the
joints, but it is seldom that the joints
themselves change, except to increase
in size. For this reason the person
whose fingers have grown thin from
sickness or other causes finds that if a
ring is cut down to fit snugly where it
is customarily worn there is trouble in
getting it over the joint. There is an
easier way out of the difficulty than
having the ring cut down, and one
which permits the ring to be worn as
usual should the flesh return to the
hand again.
There has been invented spring
device to be inserted in the ring which
has the effect of decreasing the dame
ter, and at the same time drawing the
ring down against the upper side of the
finger. This gives the appearance of Il
tightly fitting ring, while in reality
there may be a considerable space on
the upper side; but no matter how
loose the ring was before the insertion
of this spring, it is now held firmly in
place and there is no danger of its slip
ping from the finger. Should it be diff
ficult to pass the ring over the joint
with the spring in place the latter can
be slipped out before the ring is taken
off

Kaiser Aided nj: g, Ferrar.

Geraldine F'errar, the young Ameri-
can who is singing now at the Royal
| Opera House in Berlin, writes that her
| success as Manon was great, although
the criticisms credited her with little
. better than a fiasco. She says that the
envy of her colleagues led to the hos
tiIity which the press manifested to-
ward her.
One of the rules of the Royal Opera
House in Berlin is that nobody not
taking part in the performance shall
be allowed on the stage. This excludes
all husbands and mothers.
Miss Ferrar went one night to the
theatre with her mother and ran up
against the rule. The mother wept
and stormed, but in vain.
The daughter, who did not have a
baseball captain for her father for
nothing, adopted more effective tactics
and wrote a letter to the American
Amba ssador explaining that she was
so young that she disliked to go to the
theatre alone, and as she was among
strangers she hoped that he might help
her to reach some person who would
aid her to gain the requisite permission
for her mother to accompany her on the
stage. The Ambassador gave Miss
Ferrar letter to no less person than
the Kaiser.
The letter got to the Kaiser in some
way, and Miss Ferrar's mother has
had access to the stage ever since. This
angered the other women in the COM
pany who had no such privilege. There
is little cordiality toward American or
other foreign singers in the company,
and to enjoy such privilege does not
endear her to her colleagues.
The young American soprano attrib-
utes the unfavorabIe notices she has
received in the Berlin press to the feel
ing aroused by this favoritism, which
she says was absolutely necessary in
the case of a young girl scarcely 20 in
a foreign country and surrounded by
strangers in the theatre.
The Crown Prince of Germany is said
to be so much devoted to Miss Ferrar
that his father has interfered. That
the Crown Prince is a great admirer
of the beautiful young American is.
matter of common information among
her friends here. He sent her his photo
graph with a signature after her first
appearance and his attentions have
been very hattering.
She must be a delight to anybody
accustomed to the heroic beauties of
the German opera houses. Miss Ferrar,
according to the latest photographs
she has sent to this country, is young
woman of unusual loneliness.
