unable to get downstairs without as-

describable agony.
Many remedies Were used, in efforts
to effect a Cure. Different medial
men were called in to attend her, but
all failed dismally.
At length Mra. Fletcher, having read
of Dodd's Kidney Pills, decided to give
them a trial--ttst a final effort. She
did so wed the only possible result
followed. The first dose soothed her
awful pain. Every succeeding doee
did more and more good, and five

There are few morenniversal cus-

that of the wedding ring. Tot it has
come down to us from very early times
even front ancient Egypt, whence it
came to be prevalent among .the He-
brews It is -eupposed that qubal-
Cain, the worker in metal, taught the
art of ring -making to hia fellows and
defice,ndants. Zoe ring was first worn
ea an ornament and came to be an
emblem of authority in the %tee of
kings and those in bigh places. Mes-
sengers carried the kings signet to
insure recognition, Physicians wore
tinge to prevent contagion and the
oommon people fh insure themselves
against toe influence of evil spirits.

tion of the ring on the hand has been
often changed. The Romans and
Greeks wore it on the forefinger, and
this seems to have been the oustora
even in the time of Charles I. of Eng-
le.nd, But previous to his reign, ia
the time of Elizabeth, tbe custom was
for the ladies to wear their wedding
rings on their thumbs. When George
I. mime to the throne the finger had
been changed to the third. The left
hand is chosen for the ring, perhaps
because it is Crablematio of submis-
elan, whereas the right stands for au-
thority. The Greek thurch atill au -
thorizes the . wearing of two rings,
both on the right hand. •
It was in the fourteenth century
that an Italian astrologist invented
a aystexa of wedding rings to insure
good fortune. The Indere of the
ring was to depend an tlie month in
which the bride was born, as foltows:
If in january, a garnet would win her
friends; February, en amethyst would
protect her from poison; March, a
bloodstone would make her wirier Ap-
ril, a diamond would keep her heart
innixent ; May, an emerald would In-
sure her happiness; dune, an agate
would give her health; July, a ruby
would preserve her free f roan jealousy;
August, a sardonyx would prevent
quarrela ; Weber, a carbuncle would
inerease her love of home; November,
a topaz would keep her truthful and
obedient; December, a turquoise would
keep bar faithful. At some. places in
Spain and Portugal three rings are
given, the tuatara being closely as-
sociated With religious ideaa, as one
is given in the nettle of eaoh raember
of the Trinity.
