UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EARL K. GOOLEY, OF ANTIOOH, CALIFORNIA.
CARPET-LINING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 232,336, dated September 21, 1880.
Application filed August 5, 1880.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EARL K. COOLEY, of Antioch, Contra Costa county, State of California, have invented certain Improvements in Carpet-Linings; and 1 do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the drawing.
My invention relates to a new lining for carpets; and it consists of a mat or cloth made by wearing or sewing together lengths of the California grass or rush known as tule, (Scirpus lacustria) which mat or carpet can be laid upon a door before putting down a carpet, and thereby form a soft elastic cushion to protect the carpet from wear and dirt, all as hereinafter more fully described.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, a to represent straws, stems, or stalks of the tulegrass, which grows in great abundancein the swampy lands on the Pacific coast. These stalks or straws are pithy in structure, and have a tough outside skin or epidermis, so that they resist wear, and at the same time are very elastic. I take these stalks orstraws and cut them into lengths corresponding to the width of the lining or mat to be made. 1 then connect them together side by side, either by weaving or sewing, so as to form a continuous mat or carpet of any desired (ModeL) length, as shown in the drawing. This mat or lining is laid upon the floor before putting down the carpet, and the carpet is put down over it, thus forming a soft elastic lining that is much more pleasant to walk over than the ordinary lining heretofore used. It is also more durable than other linings, and owing to its elasticity the carpet willlast much longer.
The stalks or stems being placed parallel with each other, provide narrow interstices or openings between them, through which the dirt and dust that get under the carpet will sift to the floor, so that the under side of the carpet will not come in contact with it.
This lining can be made ver I cheaply, and can be handled and transported without danger of injuring it. I
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
As a new article of manufacture, carpetlining made of the stalks ol the tule-grass (Somme lacustris) Woven or sewed together, substantially as above described.
in witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
EARL K. GOOLEY.
Witnesses W. F. CLARKE, W. F. DUCKETT.
