ring. It breaks in the centre for the in
scription and when 1t Is put together
again the cut does not show. In this
way 1t is supposed a secret engraving
could be kept more invlolate than most
secrets ever are.
Platinum wedding rings range in price
from $3.50 to $50. Some of them are
carved.
Often the purchasers are amazed at the
Responsiveness OF this tie that binds, and
even though they want for sweet senti-
ment's sake the plain gold band. they
cannot get It into their heads that a real
gold ring can be had for 81.
II Is on occasions like these that the
cierl; brings out the Jeweled tray, Just
to show how much can he spent for a
wedding ring.
Platinum bands carved and studded
with diamonds cost from sos to $500, un-
less the finger Ii unusually large and
then more must be paid for the extra
gem added.
The prices for mems wedding rings, and
they are being sold In goodly numbers,
is slightly higher than those for women
because OF tho extra metal needed but
tho fashion, tho plain gold circlet, is the
same.

BridegroOmS often Wear Them,
Too-Ho1O TO Tell a Womdn's
Character By the Ring
She Selects.

Tho wedding ring clerk wears one, not
because 1t is his business or just because
he happens to be married. but because
it's all the style.
Every man ought to. any way tho
clerk says. It's just as much his funeral
beg pardon. It's just as much his
wedding as 1t Is hers.
At any rate, the wedding ring clerk Is
starting to get down to the store early
these days and stay late. for what with
doing double business on account of
recent masculine leanings toward the
little golden circets, and what with the
, record season for marriages beginning,
this overworked creature scarcely gets
time TO join his friends ut the counter
where 1t is their MONDAY custom to
gather round
But II hasn't made cynic OF him. Far
from 1t. Instead the daily stream Of
wedding ring purchasers furnishes MIN
with some entertaining bits of philosophy.
You can always tell what kind OF
wife a woman Is going to make" Is one
of the conclusions he has come TO as the
result OF his ~ years of observation, by
tho way she selects her wedding ring. II
she wants a big and snowy one and Is
proud to death OF the new station in life
that awaits her, she's the real womanly
woman. Her home is going to be her
kingdom with her husband as monarch.
ION the other hand II she wants
small inconspicuous band, one which she
can wear around her neck without 1t be-
Ing n dead weight, you can be pretty sure
She has some notions in back of her head
of continuing n career, or of managing
her husband. Shell! pull the purse-strlnss
and be the all-round boss.
Another thing that YOU notice" he
continued, when you've been in this
business for some time, is that the older
a man gets the more sentimental he gets
and the less he minds showing the whole
world how he regards his adored one,
"Only the other day a gray-haired man
OF about so came in with sweet young
thing elInging TO his arm. The inscription
that he had engraved on the ring was
God knew / was lonely and no sent you
10 me. I thank Him."
"Mlzpah," according to the wedding
ring clerk, s the inscription most fire.
quently used. II Is taken from the STORY
OF Jacob In the Bible and means' "rhs
Lord watch between me and thee" The
initials OF the man and woman are also
commonly used.
'But SO often" said the clerk. they
make the mistake OF wanting 10 say j. b.
10 M. s. The to is absolutely wrong
for wedding ring, though II is all right
for an engagement ring The wedding
ring should have the initials intertwined
or they should be connected with the
word and They are both being mar
ried and the ring Is a sign OF union"
In many cases queer hieroglyphics
which even the experienced clerk cannot
decipher are used as an inscription, and
this usually indicates some cherished
secret sentiment
Wedding rings range In price from 81
TO 500. The Inexpensive ones are plain
gold eircets. made OF IS and 20 karat
gold. Those In stock are virtually all
the very narrow kind. The old-fashloned
