Lighting the Wool
Place the battery onto the wool, and it should spark, if not keep rubbing it on the wool. If it still doesn't light then you may need a new battery.
Once it is alight place the wool into the tissue and gently blow on the wool.
From this fire you can cook, use it for heat and many other things.
