These. npez'lurcs li forni the supports at di'iierent heights in support the .'sheives. iTihin the channel 15 is the iocking'b'ar 19 .1 r .1. L. Y Much nia)- ne 1n channel wrm ann said lockzng-bar is movable vertically within the hollow member or channel 15. This is accom- .plis'ned hy means of the Studs 20 on s:\id

lhnt. I claim is:
l. The combination of a snit; 'sie rinse. a removable shelf supported therein iwi-iii;
one element of a positive interlmking connotation7 supports at, different heights on mid, case, and n vertically adjustable looking hat' having the other elementof an interlocking connection engaging the first named element to hold said shelf in looked position.
2. The combination of a suitable ease, a removable Shelf supported -therein having one element of a positive interlocking conneetiont supports at ditierent, heights on said vasee and u vertically adjustable locking har having lugs attached to engage Suid element of a nositiw interlocking connqrgtgg t@ hold the. shell in looked position.
3. The Combination of n suitable oase. :i hollow support, having seats formed therein.l a Shelf having :i projecting portion .adapted to enga e said seats. and a looking bar within t ie hollow shelf supportadapted to engage. the projection on said Shelf and loclc it. in position.
4. The combination of a suitable ease, a shelf Support having seats ,formed therein, a shelf having a projection adapted to engge said Seats, Said projection having a notch therein und a looking har having nn over-hanging lug adapted to engage said notch.
5. The combination of a suitable ease, a channel member Seemed thereto having seats formed in one o its flanges. a lock-l ing ber movable within said channel member, and :i snelf having a projection adapted to ent-er the openings in `nid ilange, Said looking har adanted to engage Suid projection tolock saint shelf.
'6. The combination of a enitahle cane, a channel nieniher snjported thereby lntving 'seats formed in one of its tinnjres, n shelf having a projection adapted to engage said seats, and a vertieallv movable looking bnr in said channel meniher adapted to engage said project ion to loci: said shelf.
'i'. The combination of o. .suitable cane. a channel nien'iber carried there v having .it formed in one oi its tinnges7 n shelf haring a projection adapted to engage siii seais, und a vertically movable looking niemher Within said channel member having engaging lugel lo engage said jnojeclion on said Shelf.
v8. The combination of n suitable case, a
clinnnel member carried thereby having,
seats formed in one of its flanges, a shelf having a projection adapted to engage -Said sente2 :ind a vertically moving channel har within said channel member, said channel har having engaging ings formed on one of its langes adapted to engage the projection on che In testimony whereof, l the Said Lincoln; M.
