How Old Are
Your Pillows?
Moat people have the idea- that "Bed1 Pillows" never
wear out. There never was any greater fallacy.:.
Think of the unsanitary condition of a pillow that people have
been breathing Into for a period of years. After several years use,
fenthrs in any pillow become brittle and break. Old pillows become
flattened and do not permit proper sloop,
Healthful, restful sleep, is the most lmpotant function of the human
body. You MUST hove restful sleep to be efficient. To sleep well
you must have a good bed spting, a good mattress and particularly
n good pillow.
Look at your pillows tonlghtglvo yourself a report on how you
teel tomorrow morning then decide t you are enjoying restful
sleep.
