Safent Place for Jewels.

A few years ago one often heard
that women who possessed jewels of
value were becoming afraid" to wear
them owing TO the risks which ac'
companied displaying their property
In public. 1t became the custom to
seek some place OF security where tho
more precious possessions could be
deposited Jewels were banked" or
committed to the protection of safes
and strong rooms. But gradually the
sense OF security has in some degree
departed. The modern woman has no
capacity for matching the resourceiul
ingenuity OF the modern thief. The
most astounding cases OF jewel rob
berry show that no precautlon Is be-
yond being intelligently anticipated
After all, It is not surprising that those
who possess jewels OF value are begin
ming to realize again that their safest
place is that for which they were In
tended and are wearing them more
than ever.
