These cases really hold hats even perishable and stiff and brimmed hats. And thin mound the edges are the bags fur shoes several pairs, too.

The ones I especially liked came in square to harmonize with the sister pieces. Four to five pieces belong in the travel life of every modern. There is the small over-night bag. It goes right along with you into the dressing room itself when you travel in a Pullman, too, and segregates the cosmetics and night clothes from the rest. Then like the three bears, there is the middle sized case which can play two-some with the small case for simpler trips.

And then the big fellow which just does gain admittance to the Pullman and takes all the clothes you own in a pinch. If we ever get to Europe again this is what we have to have since checking one's luggage there in balmiest times wasn't what it is at home. The two other additions are the very important hat and shoe case I just mentioned and then the small luxury case which some women never let out of their hands. That usually is because it holds the dia monds and other jewels. But also it can lie (and often is) packed full of pink, yellow and other tonics and bottles of various descriptions with some perfume tucked in! Airplane luggage is almost the monopoly of our times.

It is to lift by oneself in emergencies it is obligatory almost for popular air travel where everything is weighed except the coat you have on and it does look smart. They even make it for men, you know, as well as women now.
