FINGER RINGS.
Origin of Wearing Them Traced to
Prometheus and the Rock.

Origin of Wearing Them Traced ID
Prometheus and the Rock.
In many lands and through mans
ages a ring has been the symbol oi
marriage. Dung folk are seldom
much IN love with antiquities, bun
here is an exception to the rule, for
there are few things older than the
wedding ring, and in it young people
have not yet lost their interest.
There has been much outcry against
rings politically, but here is the all
dominating, all attractive, most in
fuential of mergers and of all COM
binations the hardest to break.
Finger rings have been used as or
naments from the earliest times.
There is Greek story Of the origin
of their use. Jupiter chaineL Pro-
metheus TO rock in the Caucasus,
where yulture preyed on his liver,
which grew again each night. After
1000 years of this chronic liver
trouble Jupiter released him, but or
dered he should wear on his finger
an iron ring, having attached to it d
piece of the rock, SO that the deity
might keep his oath of perpetual
Imprisonment hence the use of
rings of metal with jewels Rings
seem to have been among the first
trinkets given and priced. They
were tokens of trust, insignia of
command, rank and honor, pledges
of faith and alliance. They shave
also been badges of servitude, illus
trating the proverb that extremes
meet
Pharaoh gave his ring to Joseph
in token of delegated authority. The
oldest rings now in existence came
from Egypt, having been originally
placed on the fingers of the dead.
The most interesting ring in the
world, at least to antiquarians, is
the ring of Cheops, who built the
great pyramid. It is of fine gold,
weighing about the same as three
five dollar gold pieces.
In early Roman times the ring
was worn on the fourth finger of the
left hand from a belief that vein
from it passed direct to the heart.
An old Jewish legend tells us that
Tubal Cain, the first of metal work
ers, made the first ring for his wife.
The earliest marriage record of
which We have an authentic record
is mentioned in Scripture, where the
shy and gentle Isaac placed ring
on the face probably the nose-of
the in nowise reluctant Rebekah.
Isaac was always timid, and he would
surely have managed the delicate
matter more appropriately himself.
