Application filed September 4, 1915. Serial No. 48,997.

A sleeve 6 is interposed between 'the rings l and 5 and serves as a guard for the lower portion of a liquid receptacle 7. A yieldable support 8 for the receptacle 7 is arranged within the sleeve 6 and comprises a coiled expansion spring '9 interposed between the ring 4: and a collar 10 through which the neck of the receptacle? is passed to permit the shoulders of the receptacle to' bear on the collar as shown.

Detachably connected with the neck "of the receptacle 7 is a-cap ll havi'ng formed thereon a channeled extension 12 normally extending below the ring 4 through the aperture therein, the channel in the extension =-being normally closed to prevent the escape of liquid from the receptacle by a gravity controlled valve 13, the stem of which when I the valve is in position to close the channel in the extension extends beyond the lower end of the extension as shown.

A conical liquid directing member 11 has its base secured to the ring -1 in any suitable manner and has extending transversely thereof, a bar 15 arrzm red below the valve stem 13 and adapted to, contact therewith when pressure is appliedto the liquid receptacle'7 to move the same in a downward direction, thus unseating the valve and per- .mitting the liquid within the receptacle to be discharged into the liquid directing member 14.

A waste receptacle 16 is arranged within the aperture in the. ring 3 and is provided with a perforated cover17.

WVhen a barber desires to obtain some of barber.-

thereby int-o the hand ofthe of'liquid has When the desired quantity been obtained, the barber releases the pressure upon the liquid receptacle 7 so that the yieldable support therefor will move the same in an upward valve 13 to close the channel in the extension12.

.S ecured'to the under surface of the ring will be discharged" intothe, conical member 14 and directed direction to enable the 4 beneath the opening therein isan inverted frusto-conical fluid directing member 14 into which extends the stem of the valve l3;
