A universal master carrier for a cafe transverse rod wherein an apertured drapery hanger is slidably mounted on a slotted flange portion of the master carrier disposed generally parallel to the trackway of the rod. The drapery hanger is provided with a recess which closely receives the flange portion and has a pair of opposed shoulders to maintain it mounted thereon. The flange portion has a necked down section for assembly of the drapery hanger and the drapery hook is inserted through the aperture of the drapery hanger and the slot of the flange portion to prevent the inadvertent disengagement of the drapery hanger from the master carrier.
