Shirtwaist Cabinets.

Shirtwaist boxes, which were primarily invented to help the woman of little space in keeping her room in order, have reached quite a definite place in home furnishing. Originally they were but boxes, cretonne covered, but now, though made in tbe same manner, they have small stands, of white Wood, some finished with a top glass over cretonne matching the box coverings; the boxes have also little glass knobs so that they may be pulled in and out of the stands in the same manner as bureau drawers. Some of the cases are made in the replica of a dressing case and have a small swinging mirror; 'their cost Is about the same as a little white painted bureau would be.
