application filed May 15, 1ai5. serial No. 23,4511
To all whom t may concern Beit known that LNEWTON K. BILLow, a
citizen of the United States,fresiding at Coi lumbus, in the county of Franklin and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Pillows, of which the following is a specification.
The body of a pillow as commonly constructed includes a collection of feathers completely inclosed in a ticking, thev ticking being stitched. Ticking to prevent the p rotrusion and escape of the feathers is a tightly woven, tough fabric akin to canvas and like canvas is difiicultly pervious to water. It
is impracticable to wash feathers while ina ticking. After some use the .feathersof a pillow become somewhat compacted and yield an offensive odor. To wash such a pillow it is the practice to out the stitches of the ticking, remove the feathers and wash separately the ticking and the feathers. Loose feathers are difficult to handle and are likely to scatter and 'be blown about.
The object of the present invention is to provide a construction of pillow in which the feathers can be washedy without remove ing them from their immediate container and without removal or destruction of the immediate container and the invention is embodied in the construction hereinafter described and then claimed.
In the drawing herewith-Figure 1 is a side view of the pillow. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section.
In the views l designates the feathers, 2 a sack or cover that immediately incloses and contains them and 3 the ticking.
The sack is made of coarsely woven material freely pervious to water but sulficiently closely woven to prevent the escape j of the feathers, said sack being shown as of Specification of Letters Patent.

the usual oblong form and stitched at its edges to" permanently inclose the feathers. rIhe fabric of this sack or container is of a stout loosely woven materialcoarse muslin for example-(not a netting) and such as will permit the sack while containing the feathers to withstand the rough laundrying process in the manner usual to ordinary heavy garments and at the same time prevent the escape of the feathers therefrom. When so laundried the water, saponiiied or otherwise, freely passes `through the sack and feathers, thoroughly cleaning them. The pillow 'may be hung upon the line and dried as usual with "ordinary laundry and upon drying the feathers will Vbe found relieved of their offensive `odor and to be light and Huy Because ofthe: inner lsack inclosing the Vfeathers it is notnecessary to employ the usual sewed ticking. On the contrary it is expeditious and convenient to employ a ticking of pocket form and having an open end provided with a flap 3a so that the sack 2 can be easily inserted and removed.` The flap 3 is sewedat its ends to the edge of the ticking to insure its lying flat upon the body of the ticking and thus not making a lump when the ticking with its contents are inserted into the usual pillow slip.
As an article of manufacture, a washable pillow consisting of a sack of loosely woven fabric adapted to permit the free passage of water therethrough, and a filling of pillow feathers in said sack, said sack being permanently closed whereby the pillow in be washed without removing them from the sack.
