It is best to have your name and address engraved upon the plate of your carpet bag, and to sew a white card, with your name and the address to which you are traveling, in clear, plain letters upon it. If you carry a novel or any other reading, it is best to carry the book in your satchel, and not open the carpet bag until you are ready for the night. If you are to pass the night in the cars, carry a warm woolen or silk hood, that you may take off your bonnet at night. No one can sleep comfortably in a bonnet. Carry also, in this case, a large shawl to wrap round your feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is scarcely any situation in which a lady can be placed, more admirably adapted to test her good breeding, than in the sleeping cabin of a steam-boat. If you are so unfortunate as to suffer from sea-sickness, your chances for usefulness are limited, and patient suffering your only resource. In this case, never leave home without a straw-covered bottle of brandy, and another of camphor, in your carpet-bag.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6867\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/2020\/04\/the-contents-of-a-victorian-ladys-traveling-bags\/1024px-carpetbag_met_x267-9_cp4\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?fit=1023%2C886&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1023,886\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?fit=525%2C455&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?resize=525%2C455\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6867\" width=\"525\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?w=1023&amp;ssl=1 1023w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?resize=500%2C433&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1024px-Carpetbag_MET_X267.9_CP4.jpg?resize=768%2C665&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><figcaption>American carpetbag &#8211; circa 1865<br>wool, leather, metal<br>Metropolitan Museum of Art\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/Institution:Metropolitan_Museum_of_Art\"><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wikidata.org\/wiki\/Q160236\"><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6856\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/2020\/04\/the-contents-of-a-victorian-ladys-traveling-bags\/berthold_woltze_-_der_lastige_kavalier\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?fit=1024%2C1346&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,1346\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l\u00e4stige_Kavalier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?fit=525%2C690&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier-779x1024.jpg?resize=525%2C689\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6856\" width=\"525\" height=\"689\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?resize=779%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 779w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?resize=500%2C657&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?resize=768%2C1010&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/susannaives.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Berthold_Woltze_-_Der_l%C3%A4stige_Kavalier.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><figcaption><strong><em>The Irritating Gentleman<\/em><\/strong><br>Berthold Woltze<br>Don&#8217;t you feel so sorry for this girl?
