A gusset suitably and 5 the cushion is shown extended entirely applied will form such enlargement and serve about the bottom; but, if desired, the closure to form a connection between the bottom and at the front or outlet end of the pad can be the cushion. By means of this crease or slack formed by a ridge or strip made separate 80 a the cushion can also be turned or twisted from the cushion-body. The outlet or sleeve so that the article, as it might be described, when made funnel shape or tapered can be is reversed or turned inside out.

Adevice such as above described possesses advantages, as its crease or extended bottom gives liberal capacity and allows reversing or effective cleaning, and no fluid or contents are liable to run off the cushion onto the bed or table.
In speaking of the article as being reversible it may be noted that, if desired, such pad can be used on either sidethat is, when turned inside out or not i't' at any time it should be desired to do so.
An outlet or extension from the bottom in form of an apron or gutter, as seen in Figs. 6 and 8, has also been found practicable. By having the bottom of the gutter continued from or made in one piece with the pad-bottom and having the edges c of the gutter lapped over and secured or cemented at their junction with the ends or shank portions of the cushion such turned-up edges form a trough or prevent matter running off laterally and causing annoyance or soiling. The apron portion is shown with eyelets or connections r in the edge portions, and by hooking, buttoning, or pinning opposite eyelets or attaching portions to one another, as by a collarbutton, safety-pin, hook and eye, or the like, the lower or free end portions of the apron can be close or approximately so, to form a somewhat hose or funnel shape, giving further security against lateral escape.
The bottom, with its gusset or extension, can be formed of one piece or of several pieces, as may be found advantageous in manufacturing.
What we claim as new, and. desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A pad comprising a cushion and a bottom the latter having a fold portion secured to the cushion, said cushion when reversed causing the fold to be straightened.
2. A pad comprising a bottom and a cushion extended about the bottom, the latter having a fold extended outward underneath the cushion t'or giving enlarged capacity.
3. Apad comprisinga bottom and a cushion extended about the bottom, the bottom having a fold extended outward underneath the cushion for giving enlarged capacity, and a conduit permanently secured to the pad-bottom for carrying 011' the contents, said fold being continued along the conduit to form a rim or give the same a trough shape.
4. A pad comprising a bottom with an extended portion and a cushion extended about the bottom, the bottom having a fold connection with the cushion to give enlarged capacity at the bottom and said fold being continued beyond the pad proper to give a trough shape or rim to the said extended portion.
5. A pad comprising a bottom with an exextended portion, and a cushion extended about the bottom at three sides, said bottom having its edges provided with a fold to give increased capacity and to form a rim.
In testimony whereof we have hereunto set ourhands in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
