two or three inches. were soft flexible
rubber bands six inches wide. They
were sewed on at the side of each band
and ran all the way around the skirt.
and at the top they were all joined To a
broad rubber band six inches wide. At
the top OF this band was rubber tube
about two feet long which ran up and
down the waist in front and was left
resting on the top Of the corset.

my own inventions tor saving my life.
In case of an accident all | have 10 do
is TO take the end Of the rubber tube in
my mouth and in two minutes can fill
all OF the rubber bands which are
hollow and air-tight, with air. Then

steamship companies of Italy. The
unique feature of this new life saving
belt is that it may be worn around the
body while promenading about the decks
during the day, and is not even taken
off in bed. 1t weighs about twice as
much as one of the ordinary canvas or
leather belts sold for general use.
In its finished state it is about the last
thing in the world that prudent man

Stempt to jump for his life from the
deck of a sinking vessel into the sea.

water two chemical substances contained
