The following may not explain why
we call a person poor fish, but it
shows what a poor fish" fish some
times is. A man once placed glass
partition in an aquarium and depos-
tied bass on one side of the glass
and several minnows on the other
side. For two or three days the bass
bumped his nose against the glass par
tition striking at the minnows. then
gave 1t up as a bad Job. The man
then took the partition away, and the

Oriojn of the Rinu

One of the earliest examples of the
use Of rings in statuary was in the
statues of Prom etheus, who, when re-
leased from bondage on the interces-
sion of Venus, wore ring with
small piece of the Caucasus in 1t to
show that he was still chained to the
Caucasus. The idea Of ring being
sign of bondage has continued since
those days. Bishops and doctors wore
rings by right because they had signed
away their independence in order to
