The cushion I is built upon the straps A and O, and is stuffed with curled hair or any other suitable material. or bottom, J, is made to the cushion for the part over the slot B. The cushion I is nearly the shape of the letter T, the transverse and upright parts being curved-that is to say, it has the curved arms K K and the curved stem L.
