Show Not Engagement Bracelet. If a young man has any true regard for a woman he gives her a gold riblion bracelet, perfectly plain, save for an inscription, and clasps it upon her arm. It should lock and the key be carried by him who purchased it. Ihese are not of necessity engagement bracelets; they mean, morelv, true regard and a desire that this "state of foeling shall continue. If regard has deepened into love, and a blessed feeling of possession, a little verse is inscribed upon tho bracelet, telling to all who care to. read that two more lives have been made happy in loving each other. Pretty verse upon a New York engagement bracelet ran thus: The violet loves a sunny bauk. The cowslip loves the lee, The scarlet creeper loves the elm And 1 love thee. |
