Wedding Rings.
From the New York World.
Y If marriage is not a failure there
Ikii'i a question as to tlie imlillereiil
regard In wliieli I lie wedding t in” is
held. Kren the jeweler has a scnii-
coiiteinptMoiis way of presenting the
tray of plain gold hands and a tant
alizing preferenee lor dismal times,
which lie hunts or whistles sofllv lint
none the less significantly, as he
makes a note of the initials to he in
scribed. The very young brides
wear tlie yellow hands, hut in swell
ciie.lcs young married ladies have the
bravado to lay aside the emblem <>l
undying love as soon as' the honey
moon is over.
Among the older wives the ring is
discarded altogether, and if you in
quire about it the matron will calmly
tell you it’s such an unfashionable
piece of jewelry to be obliged to wear,
and as a result the young lady daugh
ters in the family are married with a
seal ring, not one of which can he
procured for the paltry I”, the price
of the yellow band. Kmcralds, rubies
and turquoise, set in small but bril
liant diamonds, are popular as wed
ding jewels, and not a lew bride
grooms have wedded their ideal with
a marquis of diamonds. A bride ol a
month ago was married with a ser
pentine ring, composed of two snakes
exquisitely carved, each with a prer
ious jewel in its head. To show the
low degree of enthusiasm lor the time-
honored symbol of conjugal love, a I
the last coaching club dinner party
given in the Brunswick but three
ladies out of forty, all attended by
their husbands, wore the plain gold
band. There were clusters of dia
monds, circlets of pearls and solitaire
stones by tlie quart, but the single
trio displayed tlie simple yellow hoop.
(irass widows find the band par
ticularly obnoxious, and those gay
and festive wives who have a few
more links of freedom than is whole
some never give it position outside ol
the jewel casket. At ilte resorts and
in social gatherings one hears fre
quent outbursts front the young and
innocent society men who protest
against what they consider misplace
ment of the only badge that distin
guishes a married woman from a
spinster.
Of Course It “Goes.”
From the Campaign (Ill.) Times.
“Lige,” said the President, scratch
ing his head for an idea, “isn’t this
Spalding who wants the post office at
Champaign a relative of mine in some
way?”
.‘‘Yes, sire,” said Lige, coloring;
"Lb^t is, he is a relative of the family.
Hi the brother-in-law of your pri
vate secretary.”
“Ah, Lige,’’said the President look
ing up,“that is rather far-lctchcd, Init
it’s all right, 1 would have preferred
to give the office to a man who had
at least one drop of pure Harrison
blood in his veins. But, Lige?”
“Yes, Bire.”
“Don’t the people criticise me lor ap
pointing relatives to office?”
“Yes,wire; some of them do.”
“Well, Lige, if any one says any
thing to you about it, tell them 1 was
nominated and eleeted because I was
the son of my father, and I am but
followiug the same policy. •Spalding
shall have what he wants.”
Then Lige addressed and scaled an
appointment of the President’s wife’s
sisteri’s husband’s brother to a S 1,000
post office.
“Canra,” said the old mail, “will
you have some talers? - ’
“Ifyou refer to the Ittiiiiaeeous
tubers which pertain to the solatium
tuberosum, and which arc commonly
known as potatoes,” replied the sweet
girl graduate, “I would be pleasciUo
he bellied lo a modicum of the same.
But talers ? Talers ? I’m quite sure,
papa, that they are something of
Which I never had the pleasure of
hearing.”
The old man pounded on the table
until the pepper caster lay down birtjj
rest, and remarked in a voice of icy
calmness: “Laura will you have
some of the taters ?"
“Yes, papa.”

It is said that "Lige” goes around
with the president at Deer I’ark to
keep the red bugs off. The red bug
is no respecter of persons: it would as
soon fasten itself on the calf of the
president’s leg as on a peasant. Great
ness is no guarantee against red bugs.
0^1 personal experience has taught us
this.
