       3 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the buckling member is a sleeve having an opening being provided with a resilient member therein, and a buckling ball is provided between the resilient member and a cover fixed on the opening and is partially exposed so the buckling ball is able to be buckled in the positioning hole; the other fixing seat is provided with a hanging ring device, a ring rack is vertically provided at an bottom end of the fixing seat. 
   
   
       4 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the positioning hole is provided at an inner end and close to the open end of each of the fixing rods. 
   
   
       5 . A multi-function towel and storage rack, includes:
 a pair of fixing seats oppositely provided;   a main rack member having a pair of main supporting racks, each of the main supporting racks is vertically connected to a front end of the fixing seats, and at least one fixing rod is provided between the pair of main supporting racks;   a secondary rack member provided at a bottom end of the main rack member, having a secondary supporting rack vertically connected to a front end of either of the fixing seats, and at least one hanging rod provided at an inner side of the secondary supporting rack, the length of each of the hanging rods is shorter than the length of the fixing rod and an inner end thereof has a sealed edge, so a open-type rack member is obtained.   
   
   
       6 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 5 , further includes at least one retractable rod passed through the retractable hole provided at an outer end of the main supporting rack and with respect to the open end of each of the fixing rods and sleeved in the fixing rod, an inner end of each of the retractable rods is provided with a buckling member with respect to the locations where the positioning holes are provided; when the buckling member is buckled in or released from the positioning hole, the retractable rod is extended from the main supporting rack provided at one end of the main rack member or is retracted in the fixing rod. 
   
   
       7 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the fixing rod and the retractable rod are pipe members having rectangular cross sections, and an ending member is provided at an outer end of each of the rod members; and one of the main supporting racks is transversally and throughly provided with at least one pair of fixing holes, an inner end and an outer end of the other main supporting rack are respectively provided with at least one pair of fixing holes and retractable holes communicating with the fixing holes, the outer caliber of the fixing rod is relative to the fixing hole, and the outer caliber of the retractable rod is relative to the inner calibers of the retractable hole and the fixing rod. 
   
   
       8 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the buckling member is a sleeve having an opening being provided with a resilient member therein, and a buckling ball is provided between the resilient member and a cover fixed on the opening and is partially exposed so the buckling ball is able to be buckled in the positioning hole. 
   
   
       9 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the secondary supporting rack is bended so is in a tilted status, therefore the plural hanging rods extended from an inner end of the secondary supporting rack have height variations. 
   
   
       10 . The multi-function towel and storage rack as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the other side of the secondary rack member is provided with a hanging ring device, a ring rack is vertically connected to a bottom end of the other fixing seat, and a hanging ring is pivotally provided at a front end of the ring rack. 
   
   
       11 . A multi-function towel and storage rack, includes:
