MEN ARE PAID TO WEAR

There are many men I'm Chicago who
are paid 10 wear diamonds. The men
that are paid To wear diamonds are
paid I'm the hope their example will
be followed by others and that in the
spread OF the diamond carrying habit
the original payer will get his return.
The business OF selling diamonds out

OF the means that the sellers use 10 at

whom they know has a large circle OF
friends and acqualntances. Sometime
they make him q present Of the ring.
More often--for II Is not their policy

wearer the ring at greatly reduced
price. lie in return is expected to in
terest his friends i'm the stone.
often the agent is given a stone TO
wear and he Is instructed to tell his
friends that the diamond belongs TO
him, but that he is willing TO sell e..
The unsuspecting acquaintance, think

than he could secure at shop. buys
the diamond. The agent usually has
TO get his commission out OF the sale
price. One man OF whom several Of
the local diamond brokers have knowl-
edge has sold diamonds to q OF his
friends.
Many men who do not give all their
time TO the diamond business deal in
diamonds as a side line. There are
a few real estate offices In Chicago I'm
which diamonds are sold and many
travelling men carry one or more dia-
monds as n sort OF speculative side
