A Portable Wardrobe.
Would you ever have thought it possible to pack a cabinet case into your trunk when you went away on your vacation? Well, that’s exactly* what you can do, for some ingenious mind has invented a wardrobe made of metal frames and figured chintz which ■iH .yllupulMh -- . ’ ' ■ There are two styles of cabinets. One is provided with shelves made of the cretonne and given a substantial firmness by means of a wire frame. The cabinet is a little more than six feet high and contains four shelves. Between the shelves and to the sides of the cabinet little pockets with flaps are attached. On the shelves one can keep hat bqxes, trinket boxes, and one could even ley one’s shirtwaists away on one shelf. The other cabinet is entirely without shelves. Across the top, thru the center, a metal rod is run. On this rod coathangers can be suspended. One’s frocks, coats and skirts can be hung neatly and be kept free from dust, for the front of the cabinet can be closed and kept so by means of Snap fasteners. 1 Odd-looking pockets are attached to the corners of the cabinet. These are intended to hold sachet if one wishes to'fill the cabinet with one’s favorite scent. Each cabinet is provided with a screw at the top and bored metal pieces at the back, so that it can be suspended from the ceiling or attached to the wall.
