THE FEMININE TRAVELER.
How to Travel With GreaUst Comfort
and Convenience.
If the feminine traveler Is not enrry
Jng a specially fitted small hand bag
she should have her toilet belongings
in either fabric sacks or in flat cases,
as these are tbe only sort that pack
easily and without taking up an atom
of unnecessary space.
For the bath things the best sort of
bag is the one of knitted silk lined
with rubber and holding separate rub
ber lined cases for the soap, face cloth
and powders, or one of rubberized silk
lined with oil silk and having pockets
for the sonp, etc.. In tbe main portion,
while at tbe bottom and to be reached
only from the outer side is a special
bag for the face cloth.
Tbe nightgown and the kimono will
easily go In one of tbe oblong envelopo
cases measuring a trifle less than the
proportions of a medium sized suit
case. These envelopes are most prac
tical when made of a dark shade of
wool backed satin lined with white
silk veiled with fine white batiste, em
broidered muslin or dotted Swiss and
finished at the edges with a silk cord
ing, which on the flap runs into a loop
fastening over an oriental button. Fit
ted into tbe lid of the suit case, this
envelope's presence Is scarcely noticed,
yet the garments that It holds may be
reached without disturbing any other
article In the luggage.
To dispose of one's belongings while
seated in the berth of a sleeping car
Is comparatively simple if there are
special bags for those most important
details of a woman's costume the cor
set and the footwear. The corset bag
should be fully a yard long and a half
yard wide and have substantial hang
ers, else it will be worthless. Instead
of having it of tbln silk like the ki
mono, make It in matching shade of
satin and have the hangers of velvet
rather than of satin ribbon. The shoe
bag should be about half the size of
that for the corset and at one of its
outer sides should have a pocket for
hosiery.
Handkerchiefs and gloves are most
easily carried In round, flat bags with
wide mouths, which when opened re
veal the entire contents of the recep
tacle at a glance. And if tbe woman
traveler would keep her bat fresh she
will protect it with a dark linen bag
fastened along its open side with a
row of small safety p'ns, meanwhile
wearing a folding cap in tweed or rub
berized silk or a loose hood in chiffon
cloth.
