suffering from rheumatism or pulmonary
troubles find no i'll effects from sleeping
on a Royal Elastic Felt mattress, it matters
-zlot in whit kind Of climate it is used,
while often on hair mattress which has
become hard, damp and sodden and full of
impurities from use attacks of rheuma-
t1sm and other troubles are aggravated,
and often brought on those who have
never suffered before.
What Care is Required
Our Royal Elastic Felt Mattress does
not become hard or lose it's shape, and
therefore it requires no making over. It
should be turned over end for end
once each week, it should be aired every
day and given an occasional sun bath. In
very damp atmospheres give it frequent
sunnlngs The sunnings of the mattress
keeps it light, soft and elastic.
Is it an Economical Mattress?
Yes. Its first cost is about one-half
that of a good hair mattress. This is the
only cost, as it does not have to be worked
over. When the price of working over a
hair mattress three times in ten years
(Which is necessary to keep it at all com
fortable) is added to it's first cost, the
Royal Elastic Felt Mattress is only about
one-fourth the cost of the best hair mat
tress, not taking into account the addi-
tional hair which has to be used each
time it is made over
Of the so called cheap mattresses it
seems unnecessary to suggest that after
brief use they become hard, unclean and
unfit for use. Purchasing new ones with
requisite frequency makes them more ex-
pensive than higher priced mattresses
