Such a dimeulty is quickly solved by sorting out the various pleces of materials into separate plies of linens, sliks, woollers, artificial silks, creluunes, case- ments, and so on, and after having ironed the stuff in each pile, putting it carefully folded Into a large paper bag, with the name of the type of material contained there on both sides of the outer covering.
These bars pack flat into the box, and it is possible to take out any particular one in ue storiesi passible time, knowing that its contents will be quite ready for use.
Moreover, It Is much easier to to keep an eye on the stock of different types of stuff and so be able to look out for suitable replacements.
To turn out the box for cleaning purposes will now be only a matter of minutes.
