It is certain, however, that the enstont is an ancient one, for in the bible may be found several refer­ ences to rings and the Christians used the ring as a symbol of marriage in 800. Regarding the custom of wearing the wedding ring on the most useless finger of the left hand--the third finger--the explanation has been made that the helplessness of that finger is a protec­ tion to the ring, as on the weakest finger it is preserved from rough usage. Another* reason given is that on the third finger there is a vein leading from the heart, hence the same excuse as that given for shaking hands with the left hand, "nearer the heart" In olden times kings and ot|l|nB In authority wore on the ring a seal or image that indicated power, and in the time of Moses the priests wore rings as symbols of office. In the British muse­ um quaint rings, made of porcelain, which once adorned the fingers of the poorer classes in Egypt may be seen. Among the Jews the ring is an im­ portant factor in the marriage ceremony, and in Germany the husband is expected to wear his marriage ring continuously. In fact, it would be a difficult matter for a man to re-establish harmony in his home were he discovered to have re­ moved the symbol of marriage from his finger, the inference being that he had been trying to conceal the feet to his marriage. ! Queen Victoria possesses ma >y rings, but three of these have a speoi&l value, in view of the history connected with them. One is her wedding ring--a narrow gold band. The second is her betrothal ring, a snake made of emer­ alds, and the third is a diamond ring given to her by Prince Albert when she was a young girl, Queen Elizabeth, who was noted for her love of jewelry, wore many rings. The emperor of Germany is another royal personage who has displayed a liking for rings. It is said that on all important occasions the kaiser will be seen to wear on his left hand a massive gold ring set with a large dark stone. The ring is credited with being an heir­ loom of the Suu6a£Ou6u fatuity and came into the possession of Margraf of Ulrich away back in the thirteenth cen­ tury. After a series of adventures and mishaps the ring became the property | of the kaiser, who, although not a su­ perstitious man, is never seen on oc­ casions of stpte Aod importance with­ out the ring. Rings have been fashioned from every material of sufficient strength to be put to such use, including gold, silver, steel, brass, iron, bronxe, ivory, jet, earthen­ ware and wire. Curious instances have been cited where makeshift substitute for the conventional wedding ring have been utilized during the marriage ceremony. One such occasion occurred some time ago in a near-by town, when the ring was missing. Nothing better being available as a substitute, a curtain ring was used, and on still another occasion the ring handle of the church key was utilized. A couple in this state used in such an emergency a ring formed from the outer edge of a coin and which had been carried bjr someone present M « curiosity. A gallant "best man" came to the rescue at a recent wedding, when the ring was not forthcoming at the right time. He drew from his tie the slender stickpin that had been adorning it and, bending the wire into ring shape, hand­ ed the improvised wedding ring to the distracted groom. A horseshoe nail bent to the shape of a ring is said to bring a great deal of luck to the owner and the lead cramp ring worn six centuries ago has given place to various rings now worn to prevent and cure rheumatism.

A friend of the ex-manager, on being asked if the latter was a man of truth and veracity, used to remark: "I can answer for his truth, bot as for veracity, why, some days he will and sonie days he won't." "You remember Agesllaus McSwatt?" the ex-manager began. "Well, that man was the flower of all the heavy- weights. Not a fighter among them could stand against him for three rounds.

During the early part of October, 1896, I contracted a bad cold which settled on my lungs and was neglected until I feared that consumption had appeared in an incipient state. I was constantly coughing and trying to expel something which I could not. I became alarmed and after giving the local doctor a trial bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the result was immediate improvement, and after I had used three bottles my lungs were restored to their healthy state. - B.

Now, that theory was all right. Metchnisneeze's invigorator is a bird if ever there was one. "Well, McSwatt read about It, and he came to me with a big proposition. I arranged a match for him with O'Toole. ope of the third rate heavy­ weights. O'Toole thought he. bad a cinch agafnst the old has been. Then we sent to Meiciiuisneeze for some of his invigorating preparation, and I in­ jected about a cupful of it Into Mc- 8watt's arm! "It took a full 20 years off his life. "He re-entered the ring a man of 40, and In about 18 seconds O'Toole thought an Empire State express train was indulging in\ a sportive game of tag and that he was It. "O'Toole went to sleep in the first round, and McSwatt and I collected about $12,000 between us in bets, gate money, etc. "Then we challenged Socket Tuum, the big second rater, and - Socket thought It would be like finding the money In the street. "But we squirted another cupful of old Met<^misneeze's invigorator into McSwatt's arm at the ringside and brought him down to the age of 30. "A local poet laureate described that fight in tin following lurid yet graphic lines: McSwmtt wiled Into Socket, sad he pulverised his jore, And then he slugged him to the ropes, sad he slammed him on the floor; He banged hia aolar plexus till it struck against his spine, ' And Socket thought he'd ran against tome Maine destroying mine. Ah, 'twas a glorious finish! Aad McSwatt's the people's pet. But Socket doesn't know It, tor he's steeping •oundly yet. "That gave us the right to tackle some first class man, and we did. "We challenged big McAblulf. There was just one heavyweight in the ring who could lick McAbluff. and that was the world's champion himself. The champion would come later. "We gave McSwatt a tablespoonful of Invigorator and made him 25 years old. "Then we turned him loose on Mc­ Abluff, and in two rounds McAbluff lay dreaming g|ad, glad dreams of home and mother.

' t _: * X(* [From the Hartford TitneSkl Mental phenomena have of late years been subjected to scientific investiga­ tion in what is known as modern physio­ logical psychology and an attempt has been made to bring them under the laws that apply to material things. Many curious connections between the mind and the body have been discovered, but dreams seem to resist analysis. It is impossible for an outsider to note the dreams of another person and the dream­ er's own report is apt to be very indefi­ nite, for he cannot tell what he really dreamed, but only what he thinks he dreamed. We all have noticed how quickly a dream fades and is forgotten unless set down in writing promptly on waking. A theory has been adduced which seems to ̂ connect the phenomenon of dreaming with the gradual manner in which human consciousness has risen from the depths--from dead matter per­ haps--in the long history of the race. It is that sleep submerges us something as a flood might submerge a continent, covering up the lower part of our na­ tures first and not blotting out our high­ er moral principles 'till the last and thereby reversing the steps of the pro­ cess through which man passed in his development from a lower state. Thus the first power an animal acquires is the coordination of its muscles and its will, the power to make prompt, de­ cisive movements of its limbs. This is a power acquired by children during the first year or two of their lives and is nearly the entire Bum of the faculties oi the lowest savage. In the state of sleep this power is lost first, for sleep-walking is entireiy an unconscious action, the body acting as a machine not under the control of the will. As the savage rises in the plane of life he acquires |he rudi­ mentary reasoning powers and becomes able to estimate roughly the relation of cause and effect This logical power is the next faculty we lose as sleep rises from the depths over us. Everyone must have noticed that in dreams things happen at random. We find ourselves in strange places and peo­ ple appear and disappear on the scene in an absolutely lawless manner. While we are in thiB condition we are still ca­ pable of remorse if we do anything wrong, and we feel fear or joy. Our high­ er moral natures are still active. Now, the conscience and the establishment in the mind of a reasonable standard of ethics is the last thing that grows up in the mind of man either in the,race or in the individual. Savages have been the rudiments of either, and only the man in whom the conscience is developed can be called civilized. In the final stage sleep rises so high as to cover up our moral natures, the peaks of which* had projected above the fog covering our logical powers. In this condition we kill our best friends in our dreams with­ out the slightest hesitation and are troubled with no remorse though we commit in imagination frightful and unnecessary crimes in a mood of placid indifference. It is believed that the experience 01 everyone as to the character of dreams, or rather of sleep, will confirm the real­ ity of the above stages. Nearly all who have testified on the subject agree that in "sleep-thinking" their logical powers disappear first and their moral natures afterward. If it be really so and sleep is a rehearsal backward of the great drama of human development our night­ ly repose is a more serious matter than we thought it to be and ought not to be lightly entered into. If our dreams do dimly shadow the stages ifi the life- history of the race it is only another proof of our common origin and our mys erious heredities.
