strap bracelet holding a small gold
filled enameled watch. Between
these two extremes in leather come
innumerable conveniences. One of
them, the handy pocket kit, comprises
neat leather case containing a large
knife, small saw, chisel, cork
screw and a wrench. Another is a
pigskin case containing a fiat, flash
like glass, folding knife, spoon and
fork, and third is a leather combina-
ton case lined with silk and contain
ing pockets for handkerchiefs, gloves,
wells and pins. Not unlike the last
mentioned case, is a silk-lined recep.
tacle for neckties.
There are three types of sewing
case from which to choose. The larg-
est is. bag shape, closes with draw
string and contains a pin cushion,
scissors, cases of needles and reels of
thread. Next in size is a satin lined
folding case fitted with a stiletto, tape
needle, bodkin and two thread reels.
Smallest of all is a brocade lined
sealskin book holding a leaf of need
