KAPOK LIFE SAVING BEDDING.
This material will support more than 30 times its own weight in sea water. A small pillow in waterproof covering will save a person from drowning; a mattress becomes a raft. Best Kapok alone will produce this result (no other is used); it is the lightest, purest and softest filling that can be employed, and it is moth-proof. A lady can carry a mattress in one hand from the cabin to the deck: sleep, therefore, is aided by a feeling of security when at sea.
