. Be itknown that I, SAMUE B nnn'nson fi a citizen of the United States, and'aresideiit of Chicago, county'of (3001mm Statelot" V Ill1nois,'have invented certain new and use-f ful linprovements 1n Powder Bags; and I do hereby declare that the following is a .fulh clear and exactv description thereof, 7 reference, being had to the accompanying drawings,.and to the letters otreference marked thereon, which [form apart of this specif cation.

. This invention relates was, iniohovement in powder bags and consistso'i'the matters hereinafter described ai idmore particularly pointed out in theappended claims- The. object of the. invention is 'to provide 7 a small, hat, handy and convenient powder hag which maybe easily disposed about the person and which is so constructedthat a pufi, which is. containedfwithin'itfwill be charged with just surhcient powder or use and will be freed fromany excessgor powder in the act of withdrawi fomthe'bag.

With a powder bag 0 behind, the pull may he /used from time to time without dan- 'er of dropping excess powder upon the face o or clothing.

The advantages of the invention will ap pear as I proceed with my specification.

In the drawings 7 Fig. 1 is a perspectivevicw 0'2 the powder bag asit appears when folded or closed up.

Fig. 2 is a perspective view. showing the powder bag open with parts tornaway to show the inside construction.

Fig. 3 is a view 'representinga section in a plane indicated by the through the ba line 3-3 of Fig. 4.

' F 5 is it view representing a'trensverse section through the bag in a plane indicated by the line 5-5 of Fig. 3.

Referring now in detail to that embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings :10 indicates the bagand 11 indie-ates the puff contained within the bag. The bag consists of a flat tubular pocket closed at the bottom end 12 and open at the top end 13. The said pocket" is of handy size, convenient to be gripped or handled, andis designed to have the top end part 14 folded down upon itself, as shown in shown in Fig. 2.

' The" bag is preferably made-of an. inner .1: I, x I v n b v i bag 15 OI chamois slnn or the like and oi: an

Fig. 1, to bring-thebag into small of outer bag 16, which is an ornamental cover-' ing for the bagf'and" may be made oi silk, satin, ol any other suitable i'i'iaterial. The two bags are" made sothat theone hag fits closely and fsnugly within the other, as shown inthe drawing, the twohags being stitched'or otherwise :ittachledtogether at their top margins, as indicated at 17L 7 YVithin thebagis mounted and held a sci'eenpocket 18. This is made o'llinemesh of any suitable light wire or other desirable material. Said screen'pocliet is. as shown,

a little more than half the depth of the lag and is somewhat narrowerthan the width of the bag. It has a closed bottom 19 and an open top end 20, andis' designed to receive and retain a flat powder puff ll made of any suitable material. The screen pocket 18- is secured and held within the bag 10, being stitchecllor otherwise attached its upper edge to theinnerchamois bag 15, as shown at 21. (See 4.) Supported and held in this way, there is provided a space 22 surrounding the sides, ends and bottom ot' the screen p0cket,-said space constituting a reservior to contain powder, as 'indicated at 23. r

The operation of the bag will be manitest from the foregoing. 'When it is desired to use the powder puff 11, the top end 14,

which is normally folded down upon the bag as shown in Fig. 1, is brought toupright position and the bag is opened up, as This may be readily brought about by pressure upon the side edges of the screen pocket 18, by the fingers of the hand grasping the bag. The fingers of the other hand are theninserted into the bag to grip thepuff 11, which is withdrawn from its position in the screen bag through the open top end or mouth of the bag and is then used in the ordinary manner.

The excess powder, deposited on the puff through the wire mesh screen from the powder 23 contained in the reservoir, is scraped off the powder puff as it is withdrawn from the screen pocket, only enough powder remaining on the puff for its efiicient use without any excess to drop on the dress or clothing. After the putt has been used it is replaced within the wire screen mesh, the bag is folded again, as shown in Fig. 1,

[and is returned to the place where it is" worn or concealed; When the puff is in the f The powder will. normally"ibei deposited to a suflicient" extent on the puff without, m manipulation of the bag. In case, how-.

screen pocket, the engagement between the screen pocket and thepu'lf will act torprevent cziking of the powder under the action of the moisture absorbed in the use of the 7 putt.

ever, the supply of powder in the reservoir to side or may be tapped to distribute the powder over the. space occupiedby the pufff the excess being removed when the powder puff 1S withdrawn, as; heretofore described. The inner bag being made of Chamois, prevent the powder from ahsorh- 111g moisture. when the bag 1s carried next the body; V I p While in illustrating anddescrihing my invention I have referred' t certain details of construction and arrangement or parts it is to be understood'that the invention is notlimited thereto except as may he point ed out in the appended claims.
