FIG. 1 is a plan view of an embossed tissue sheet illustrating the claimed design; and,

FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the embossed tissue sheet of FIG. 1 taken along line 2—2.

The ornamental design of this invention is for an embossed tissue sheet. The embossed design may be applied to either a single-ply or multi-ply product such as bath tissue, facial tissue, paper towels, wipes and the like. The broken lines define a portion of the embossed tissue sheet and indicate that the pattern continues indeterminately in one or more directions and repeats uniformly throughout the length and width of the fabric. The broken lines form no part of the claimed design.
