The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1912-06-12


A we'll supplied vanity box. which
Is still light enough to be carried
abou. in the suit case or hand bag, Is
about the most precious thing the
woman traveller can take along with
her.
Many young ladies who have learn
ed the economical tricks of beauty
buy theatrical makeup boxes for the
holding of the cosmetics and soft lit
tie rags that they will need. the girls
getting these empty and fitting them
up as they see fit. One will buy
charming little celluloid boxes-the
sort called "Parisian ivory" for pow.
der, rouge. nail paste, forehead plas.
tiers, and so on. putting the liquids
she will require into bottles as dainty.
Another will make use OF any small
cardboard boxes in convenient sizes
she has on hand, employing ordinary
Walls. old or new. for the liquids. For
the makeup rags, which are indispen.
sible. tops Of old white stockings are
used fine old handkerchiefs. bits OF
silk undervests, etc, and the maid
who understands travelling will never
fail to fasten all the tops Of the boxes
on with rubber band.
Now travelling by land and sea have
differing consequences. but both meth.
