A Wrinkle IN Packing.

The woman Of slender means. who
uses a large travelling trunk perhaps
once year. scarcely likes to invest in
one Of the expensive up-to-date trunks
with numerous trays and compartments
for the disposal of gowns. But IL is
great trial 20 find all her carefully
folded garments in unsightly wrinkles
at her Journeys end
To avoid this one cIever woman re-
sorts to the large fat boxes. such as
tailors and large department stores use
IN sending out their goods. These boxes
are fitted with deep covers. after the
style Of the oId-fashioned extension
travelling cases, and come I'm various
sizes
In these boxes the traveller packs her
gowns. folding them carefully and max
ing sure that each case is snugly filled
and closely covered. One such box fits
into the bottom Of the trunk. Then
around and over il are disposed less
peri liable things. such as plain under
clothing and footwear.
Another clOsely-pac ked box goes in on
top Of this layer and so on, alternating
the boxes Of gowns with the other
clothing.
The result is that no matter how many
times the trunk is turned end over end
on its journey there IS no disturbance
Of the Contents, and hence no wrinkles
when the clothes are unpaCked. More
over. as each box is labeled. there is no
necessity Of turning the whole trunk
topsy-turvy in IN attempt to And a par
ticular costume.
This simple pan works especially well
in the packing Of Children's dresses,
which are so apt to lose their freshly
laUndeTed appearance when shaken
about in a roomy trunk-New York Sun.
