INDEPENDENCE. Mo-, Jan. 80
The profession Of r.almistry was pretty
thoroughly discussed during the trial
of divorce case yesterday in the court
OF Judge Gates.
There's nothing TO palmistry not a
thing" was the startling declaration of
Vernon Stone who, together with his
wife, Susie Stone, had followed that
profession.
And yet, according to your own
statements" said Llewellyn Jones, the
opposing counsel, "you have been prac-
ticing this empty profession upon peo-
pie AMI teaching it to Others"
''I had to do it," said Stone; II had no
other means Of support, and did not
want to steal"
At one time Mrs. Stone did the palm
istry stunt at Forest park, Kansas
City. Mrs. Stone created quite scene
by fainting in the court room Monday.
Her husband charges that she has
smoked cigarettes so much that her
nervous system is wrecked.
Although she processes to have the
ability to tell peoples fortunes by read
ing their palms, it developed in evil
dence that Mrs. Stone could neither
read nor write.
Judge Gates took the case under ad-
ViSement.
