It is also'an object of the invention to provide the line witha type of clothes pin f which will positively engage articles to be securedk thereby'l without doing damage to the Ysame as by tearing or soiling them with rust or other disiiguringmarks.` A Y,
The foregoing, togetherfwith other advantageous, details and arrangements "of parts of the improved device will be apparent from av reading of the following-Ide tailed description Ain connection with the accompanyingdrawings, 1n which Figure V1, is apfragmentalperspective the improved support.
Fig. 2, is a dean i Side eievmonoftht 'type of clothes pin employed.L
Fig. 3, is a similar view takenratright angles to the Fig, 2, and,
Fig. 4, is a side elevation of aslightly modified form of pin. Y i Having more specific reference to Ythe drawings in connection with which like reference characters will designate!correspond-pv allelwires 1 and 2, therwire 2 being `above f the main or ysupporting wire 1 and of lighter gage; rings 3V are connectedV to their opposite ends,as shown in the Fig. 1` and" loops 10 are released. f

are slidable along the upper wire 2 'togany ,for
desired point. Engagement of the pins with these articles is effected by squeezing the sides v'ot the loop 10, thuscausing thejaws 12 to be separated sulicientlyto engage the y articles therebetween-` ,At this. time the Instead of the form of pin indicatedA inl i transversely f alined openingsV l5 which the main wire 1 is passed.

obviously, their number may be decreased,l l
Of kcourse anyr desired number .of ,pms may .be-Yarranged-upon the wire2, such 'asicondi- 7. vented.
