Mrs. Leona ]. Critcher, who patented
and named it. is suing Mrs. Leona
Forester Tinker, who started to manu-
facture It, for $500 alleged to be due
in royalties.
Mrs. Tinker won in the United States

first hearing Of the case. and Mrs.
Critcher carried her cause to the high

cup were on the bench and started to
hear the case. Mrs. Critcher's attor-
neys, w. Clyde Jones, Keene HI. Ad-
dington, Robert Lewis Ames and Ar
thur b. Seabold. presented the open
ing arguments.
"The Leona" was described and ex-
planned. Suffice 1t to say that the pur-
pose Of the garment is to allow an
extra inch or so of corset string to
be pulled and tied, thereby giving the
waist line a trimmer appearance and
a smaller measure. This was declared
expressly desirable with present dress
fashions.
"Leona" IL Dragged Out.
The three jurlsts heard the arguments
through. But they had paid no atten-
ton to several pasteboard boxes that
had been brought into the court. One
was opened suddenly and a "Leona"
dragged out and exposed to view. The
case was continued until today.
Mrs. Critcher invented her "Leona"
to fill a long felt want. 1t was i'm

ments have since appeared This has
