Wedding Rings.
Evidently the American girl is much more courageous than her English sister. The latter would think very many times before joining in a strike of brides, lest their matrimonial chances should be more than ever lessened; but our Transatlantic sisters, boldly determined not to bo inferior in any way to their would-be husbands, have made a stand against the, wedding ring, which they decline to wear unless their bridegrooms will likewise adopt this badge of matrimony. The belle Americaine is evidently not glamoured by the sight of the plain gold circlet which is popularly supposed to exercise a magical effect upon the fair sex, and, for once in a way, her suggested innovation is a highly sensible one. Lately it has become fashionable for bridegrooms to wear wedding rings like German Benedicts, but the practise is, of course, not obligatory, as our American sisters would have it be, and certainly there is every reason why it would be quite as desirable that it should be made as necessary for bridegrooms a 3 for brides to assume this matrimonial badge.
