mertal or spiritual force, which acted In

mental therapeutics. In the generation

of green denim, three yards of black elast-
tic, skein of embroidery silk. and the

you gather all the articles you need and
arrange them on tie pad as compactly

with, for the flat articles, such as a comb,
mirror, scissors, ETC.; you can put bands
of the elastic above them to hold the
bull1ier things, as brushes, soap box, etc.
The lighter weight things can be ar
ranged in the same two ways on the
larger three cornered double flap of denim
that extends from one side of the pad
and folds over it, fastening on the under
side with three strong dome fasteners.
