Wny Wadding Ring U Plain.
Fmm tlu early times gold was used
for Hi wedding ring, and tradition
has It that the ring should he abso
lutely plain. It has hwn long recog
nixed thnt the diamond ring run never
replace the plain bund ring. A reason
fur the preference given to the ring
without the setting la offered by Fuller
In his "Holy Shite." where he says:
"Marriage with a diamond ring fore
shadows evil, because ihe Interruption
of the circle augured that the recipro
cal regard of the spouse might not be
perpetual."
Isle of Npoieon' Exit.
False conceptions prevail of St.
Helena, where Napoleon lived and
died after his defeat and humiliation
it Waterloo, It is credited with being
a most ugly Island. Kxnctly the oppo
site Is the case. Not only Is it not a
rock, bgt a very beautiful, well-wooded
and well-watered Island, mid also,
on the whole. If one had to choose the
most perfect climate existing any
where In this world, the prise would
have to go to St. Helena, and especial
ly that part In which Longwood (Na
poleon's residence) la situated.
