as runner" or promoter of suits for per

chlef business OF many law firms and she
mace up her mind that a woman who knew
what was wanted could get the proper eyt
dence.
Miss Emerson has followed her present
occupation about year. She as wen serves
papers and collects evidence for her firm
Naturally she does not see all the accidents
that she investigates but more come to her
notice than would be supposed. She is paid
a percentage on the fee from each case and
some OF them net her as high as so.

ample room for individual choice and

The u tra-fas hi nable,' The followers Of

with tiny chains from rings to brace

jewels. The edict has gone forth

She has it in the new harness Of Jew

anxious to see family jewels come out
of safety deposit boxes and shed their
effulgence upon the world once more,
This is how the jewel glove is made.
There is a ring or two rings or a triple
set Of rings fastened together. worn
on each finger. Even the thumb must
have its ring, flashing with precious
fingers
joined into a solid piece, like the brass
knuckles" carried by the thug. From
each ring there runs a fine gold chain
that connects it with the large tur-
quoise ornament in the center of the
back Of the hand, and then the chains
run along through this jewel, which is
set around with large diamonds. some
thing like a brooch, and connect with
the bracelet beyond on the wrist.
1t completely covers the hand and
forms a blazing arrnor that will flash
and dazzle the eyes in the pit when
the hands are raised in applause in the
box. You would think the stars had
dropped down from the sky and con-
sented to do duty awhile when you
beheld this ornament in all it's magnifi-
cence.
