When the box-body is knocked down; the cordfis slackened by the act of knocking down the body, sincerthe aggregate distance between the adjacent holes e in different sides of the 1 box-bo'dy-isless. than when the box-body is set up. No attentiontothe cord or tape is I therefore necez isaryv at any time The set: ting up of the box-body putsthe cord under the proper tension and the knocking down of the box-bodyrelaxes it.
inplaee the cordfholdsthe sidesc of theboxbody'closely' against the bottom, preventing thebulging out of the same when the box is,

The box-bottom, while it mi ht be a simple rectaniular board of proper imen-' ly formed as a' shallow tray sions, is prefera It will, furthermore, be observed that when the bottom g is having low sides h.

' It will be observed that -the improved box is easily knocked down and set up, that no attention to the cord f is required, and
that the box when set upisheld firmly in proper position,- the sides being'held 'closel against thebottom and without the possibi 7 ity'of bulging awaytro'm the bottom. Furlid and the entire box thereforemade to occ upy-alverysmall space for storage or car ria e. a
