slightest pressure there should be avoided.
A we'll known actress who owns few
dozens of diamonds has had several little
bags made that are fastened with safety
pins along the lines Of her stocking sup
porters. These supporters consist of four
strong silk elastic straps depending from
a small satin belt which SIZE fastens Sc
curely about her waist, giving it ad-
ditional safety by doubly pinning 1T to her
corsets. So down the straps which are
kept taut by the stockings are fastened
these little jewel cases. She says they do
not interfere at all with her walking, but
as she is a poor pedestrienne, it would
scarcely do to take her word on it.
The heavy leather belt recently adopted
has proved a boon to the summer woman
tourist, for several of these belts were
sent to jewelers. to have ingenious leather
pockets fitted into the inside.
But, possibly" said a jeweler who
makes of these devices a speciality, the
channels skin belt worn under the petit
coat and over the corsets is the favor
lite mode of concealment. The girdle is
preferably fashioned at jewelers.. Il
does not fit at the waist line proper, for
then it would interfere with the curve,
but clings to the hips. 1t has the same
compartment method, is caught to the
corsets with light steel pins, and is firmly
fastened in the back with these pins.
None of the jewels are placed in the eX-
IRENE back, for sitting erect against a
chair might prove uncomfortable.
Large sleeves" said another jeweler,
on Broadway, have proven a boon in
this case to many diamond owners. We
have had a number of these lego mutton
sleeves belonging to heavy cloth gowns
sent Us TO have channels cloth ftted in
them. Here safety is absolute for the
pieces are distributed so that the weight
will not pull down the cloth. The chamois
is put next to the skin as an inner lining,
but cut equally as full as the sleeve.
Each pocket is arranged so that the owner
can get at It without ripping. l suppose
we have fixed a dozen after thus manner

All these designs are adopted for the
woman out of doors. For the woman in
doors there is usually the iron safe for the
possessor Of rare and numerous jewels,
All the women of the Vanderbilt Astor
and Gould families have such deposits,
and guests who visit them are requested
to put their jewels in the same deposit.
Women owning fair sprinkling of good
stones usually have a small combination
safe to place on their mantels or in their
wardrobes. This safe is screwed down
from the inside to the woodwork, where
II is placed and a thief needs to know
the combination to be able TO get at the
screws.
Rich women who so to Newport, Lon
don or Paris for a season seldom carry
their Jewels with them. They take them
to either of the two best known jewelers.
