Was not Solo on right when he said, "Wisdom is be ter than rubies?", There is something ii the deep carmine of the ruby that sugg ts the sacrifice on which our whole a stem of religion depends. While the merald suggests the meadows, and the apphire the skies, and the opal the sea, t e ruby suggests tha blood of sacri ce. , The most emphatic and startling of all colors hath the ruby. Solomon, tjhe author of my text, knew _all abou the sacrifice of lamb and dove on the altars of the tem- ple, and he knew' ,the meanieg of sacrificial blood, and: hat other precious atone could he so ell use so well to symbolize it as the ru y ?
