Sleeveholder

He resolved to make himself just as neat and attractive as possible. So he went straightway to a notion store and bought himself the finest pair of nickel-plated coiled wire sleeveholders they had in stock.

The sleeves of the shirt were too long. A pair of sky-blue, rosette-fastened, satin ribbon sleeve-holders above his elbows kept the cuffs from slipping over his hands.

There was a time when a man’s home was his castle. He could return at the end of a trying day’s work, take off his sleeve holders, stretch out on the couch, and relax.
