WEDDING RING
ANCIENT RITE
Use of Band in Nuptial Cere-
mOny Dates From
Antiquity

No other finger than the third Of
the left hand is now ever considered
for either an engagement or wedding
ring. but II was not always so. Al
the time Of the Reformation II was
just coming into fashion, and the rule
In the ancient Greek church was the
use Of the right-hand third finger
Wedding rings have been used bacS
az far as we have any records, and
the right hand was the favored one.
There are no authentic reasons for
the change save that the right hand
being in active use, the ring was more
liable TO wear and injury, as the gold
used was exceedingly soft, A NTH
century writer speaks very entertain
ingiy OF rings. II was then the fash
ion to wear great numbers OF them
deliberately set with jewels, carved
and som etimes OF massive designs and
proportions. so that the hands thus
laden were scarcely fitted for heavy
work. Then the rings began TO be
worn exclusively upon the left hand
leaving the right one free.
The fanciful reason given by many
for the use OF the third left-fnger Is
that IL is nearest the heart. and, as an
old chronicle says. this digit 'hath
especially the honor 10 bear rings.
The story OF the signct ring has an
interest to all. for history tells us thar
every free man in Greece was PRIV
ileged to wear his signet ring. and IT
was a much-pri2ed possession \The
custom was evidently adopted from
the Sabines. and free citizens Of Rome
made. some oil theirs Uf iron. After
ward when Rome Was luxuriating ia
her tremendous power and was in the
height OF glory. many a stanch OLD
Roman displayed his signet ring OF
iron in token OF his regard for the
simple way in which they used TO live.
