Section 23 Money in Traveler’s Articles
686. The Adjustable Trunk.—Some kinds of traveling bags can be adjusted to suit the degree of baggage a traveler needs. Some similar arrangement should be supplied for trunks. A half-filled trunk is more apt to be broken than a full one.
687. The Hollow Cane.—One which will contain many small articles for the use of travelers.
688. The Elastic Trunk Strap.—Avoid the hard work of strapping trunks as well as the unsightly straps by inventing an ornamental band which will do by elasticity what is now done by the buckle.
689. The Slide Bag.—An extension handbag in which when required the ends may be slid out so as to treble the space, and when empty may be slid back, making it very small.
690. The Outfit Trunk.—There should be a trunk with various divisions for the reception of articles, like the drawers of a bureau or the compartments of a writing desk, in which everything can be properly placed.
