It will also be evident that regardless of the height of the user, or the angular position in which the handle is held, or other variations in conditions of use, the mop will at all times automatieall)7 accomodate itself to such changes, without any special attention on the partiof the user. One important advantage is that the handle may be removed and the member 24 grasped and utilized as a handle,
by means of which the mop may be manipu- Vlated. lVhen so used, the users thumb and fingers will of course extend down into the space within the ring, and in a most con renient manner. `When used in this manner, also, the mop will accommodate itself to the surface being cleaned, even though the member 24 be grasped firml)r in the hand of the user.
