It we may trust a native paper at Bombay, the Hindoo noee-ring is doomed. 'A meeting f't members of the Cutchee Veeaa Oswal caste had been held at Mandvie Bunder, when it was resolved that hereafter their women should wear a flower in the nose, instead of tb» customary nose-ring. It was stated that the wearing cf nose rings had led to “ much unfavourable comment,” and it was further resolved that if _ any woman were in future to wear a nose-ring, she would be “ liable to a tine of lOrd. 4a. annua, in addition to forfeiture ; of the ornaments.”
