For the Motorist.

In imitation of the handy leather
roll in which the machinist of the
motor car keeps his tools, a toilet
case for feminine use is issued. The
advantages of having the brush and
comb, scent flask, powder phial and
other necessities in a case that is
capable OF being rolled are obvious.
Such case takes up very little
room in the car or amongst the bag
gage, and is therefore, a more de-
sirable adjunct OF the luggage than
the usual box.
