that most people do not even know

but that's fact Where the types
Of rings worn by brides are somewhat
similar a man may wear anything
from a signet to real wedding ring
on his left hand and still be in per-
feet propriety, AS matter of fact,
most men dislike the plain wedding
ring and prefer something like a sig
net. Brides aren't letting their hus-
bands off without equality in rings as
much as anything else nowadays and
the bridegro0ms are wearing all kinds
to satisfy their wives desire In the
