nnrapcment WAS completed.

al engagement was completed.
1t was once the custom in England
for the bridegroom to give the bride Il
little purse filled with money at the
altar as well us the ring. This appears
in the words Of the ceremony as given
in an old edition of the Prayer Book:
with this ring ! thee wed
This gold and silver | give thee"
The custom of giving the bride thir-
teen pieces Of gold as wedding day
gift from the bridegroom Is still OBJ
served in some Latin countries.
Ring Sign of Custodian.
The ring was the sign that the wife
was entrusted with her husbands :
property; specially valuable posses
sions were delivered into her care. She
was responsible for them. Wedding
rings were often used as seal and with
them the fastcnings of household treas
ures were stamped.
This was the distinctly understood
use to which they were put in Rome,
where the wedding ring was OF iron
The plain gold band is by no means
the universal standard regulation we'd
ding ring. All sorts of metals have
been used for rings. The idea that 1t
is bad luck to take it off the finger has
no particular antiquity, nor has the no
ton been generally held that it must
be worn on the ring finger of the
left hand.
Roman rings were iron seal rings
and it was common for q man To give
his wife two of thcm-one, Of gold. to
wear outside the house for show and
one, of iron, for every day use. Rings
or sard and onxy, made of the stone
without any metal, have been used
great deal in the near East. In shape
they resemble the gold new style ring
of today, being narrow and thick.
Silver wedding rings have been COM
NOR and the white metal was used
from preference. Some of the French
bishops of the thirteenth century went
so far as to insist upon silver rings.
Customs varied in different dioceses.
The bishop Of Paris was very strict In
his ruling that only plain gold ring
be used, with no inscription, no figure
on it, no stone set in it.
Emblems On Wedding Rings.
This statement casts more light on
the elaborate rings that were popular
at the time. Two profile photographs
of the loving couple were favorite
design. A very early French wedding
ring, probably of the fifth century, IS
of black enamel and gold and shows 4
woman holding out her arms to war
rior. who rests on his lance. On the
bezel is wreath ornament in enamel.
The engraving reads, "Dromacius and
Beta" 1t weighs over half an ounce.
Ecclesiastical and military emblems
also were frequently used.
The tradition of the fourth finger OF
the left hand with the vein leading di-
recently to the heart" seems to have q
pagan origin. At any rate, wedding
rings have been worn on the right
hand and also on the first finger and
the middle finger. When the rings
were very heavy the second joint OF
the thumb was favored.
