Of the insane? Inanimate things turn
into living creatures, the chair we sit
on becomes a horse. the armchair is
turned into a wild beast, and we ride
a-hunting through endless drawing
rooms, which are full of trees and I'M

turned into people, who dance and

THE SWITCHES.

From the Cleveland Leader.
Among the methods employed by
men to make money few present a
more ingenious choice than that of
the Switches"
Switches" Is the legal name applied
to men who follow the practice of en-
couraging suits against corporations
by individuals who may have sustained
damage through personal injury or
otherwise by alleged cSrelessness upon
the part of the corporations.
1T might surprise you to know that
Cleveland has large number of these
men," said a prominent attorney to
it is no wonder that when a person
gets hurt in any manner while in the
employ OF a corporation a suit for
damages very often results.
The system Of the SWITCHES is to
watch the daily newspapers and as
soon. as a 'snitch' reads or hears of
an accident, no matter how trivial he
hurries to the person hurt and at
tempts to gain the injured ones con-
fidence. After becoming familiar with
how the person met with injury he
employs such arguments that he often
succeeds in having a suit for damages
begun. At first it might appear to the
person injured that the corporation
was in no wise responsible for the
accident but after the 'snitch' gets
in his work the injured man is con-
vinced that he would not have been
hurt were It not for the carlessness
of the company.
You have often wondered how
many of the lawyers manage to live,
haven't you?" the attorney asked.
Well, many Of them owe their lfv-
ing to the work of SWITCHES This
Is the way II is done. An attorney
and snitch' come to an understand
ing. The lawyer says: I will pay
you "a percentage on all the suits you
bring into my ONCE that win. If
lose the case, you get nothing
Neither do l. l will win more often
than l will lose, however. We will
always be ready to compromise suits
rather than to carry them into court
and have them possibly drag out for
an interminable period, with a chance
OF not getting a cent. In this matter
we will work on the theory that a
bird in the hand is worth two frogs
in pond, and will never pass up an
offer of a settlement. OF course. if
there is a guaranteed fee from a case.
we will not attempt to settle, but
depend upon the. person bringing the
action to furnish the money we need
80 you see how 1t is" said the
man. The attorney is willing to I'M
dertake the case without a guarantee
OF more than a few dollars, and very
orten does not require a cent. He
will contract to enter suit for one-half
OF the amount recovered, and many
times Will agree to take one-third. II
all depends upon the merit of the
case"
