PA special object. of the invention comprehends a purse havin a drop fold or extension which gives ad ed depth to the secret compartment provided for the bank notes, thereby permitting their insertion longitudinall Olhcr objects of the invention have to do with various features of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter set forth and defined by the a pended claims.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in Which,-

Figure 1 is a perspective of a purse embodylng my invention showing the secret compartment o ened at the top;

Fig. 2 is a ike view showlng the compartment closed;

Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken centrally of the purse shown in Fig. 1; and

Fig. 4 is a like section of the view shown in Fi 2.

Referring more particularly to the accompanying drawings, the purse shown comrises a main com-carrying compartment 1, )oined upon each side by other compartments 2 and 3. The construction of the compartments 1 and 2 may be of any a proved form and they constitute no part o the invention. The compartment 3 is designed for a secret compartment especially suitable for accommodating bank notes, and comprises inner and outer.

body sections

4 and 5, respectively. The sections are provided with a crease near their center, and the lower half is adapted to fold upwardly, the sections'bendng along -the line of the crease,

folding of the compartment,

sections

4 and 5 are caused to lieclosely together, practically closing the compartment at the top. This latter feature is augmented if articles are carried in the

com artments

7 and 8, which would produce a ulging, thereby forcing the section 5 against its complemental section 4 and substantially concealin the secret compartment 3 and its contents rom view.

The compartment 2 resembles the usual compartments found in this type of purses, and includes a back section 10 having an extenslon or continuation adapted to fold over and form a cover for the top of the purse and fastened to the exterior surface of section 4 of compartment 3 by means of an eyelet 11. The strap or handle 12 customarily provided with this form of purse furnishes a means for carrying the same.

While I have described my invention with reference to the specific embodiment shown, 1t is obvious that various changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope thereof.
