In Paris, and on the continent gen.

the bag of fairly modest proportions

the shoulder-in the same way as one
carries field glasses-perhaps because
this method displays fits beauty to the
greatest advantage.

A Trunk-Packinq-Hint.

One girl who is something Of trav-
eler girl has for her trunk a large
sheet of blue muslin. This is put in
the bottom of the trunk before the
packing is started. When everything
is In, it is folded over the top of the
clothes and firmly pinned with safety
pins
With this precaution the girl is sure
to find her garments as smooth at the
end OF trip as at the start.
Another Of her packing methods Is
to stow in the hatbox Of the trunk all
the loose tissue paper that comes to
the house. This does away with a
mad search for tissue paper when
packing Is to be done.
