Be it known lietl, EDWARD G, PE'musON, :iA citizen of the Uniifed States, residing et Soutli'laiuge, in the county of DouglasVv @nel Siete el' llfieceusiii, have iiweuedceibiin new und useful Improvements in Shoe-Polishing Devices, of which the following is a, specification.

This inveutioii relates le shea polishing devises and more particularly to :L louuruin she-e brush adapted zo centuiu e quantity of liquid sliee polish arid provided with means for permitiiug u quentiy oil-lie liquid lo be dispensed and received by tbe bristles or e polish applying brush in u meneer limi; will permit the liquid 1:0 be applied so the shoe and spread tbereever previous to polishing the seme, which leter operation is accomplished'through the medium ol' a polishing device forming e part of the mven ion and arranged "te be conveniently macommeu le both the polishing end the liquid applying elemens.

One of elle principal objects of the invenuien is to provide a fountain slice brush el this clierecter thef may be held iu u pesition for applying the liquid and permitting the liquid te low through the applying brush :md which Will require but e single bell turn in order le stop elle flew of liquid foi* permitting the use of the polishing brush..

A further object el the inveuien is be provision el' a device of this @hammer which consisie el: eemperetively few pezs and siizeple in construct-ure but durable and Well edaped le withstand bhe rough usage te which devices el this ehureetei are oiflimlf rly subjected.

For e full description of tbe invention and the edveir'aeges and meri* tbereei, rei.u erenee is to be lied to be lielloufing deseription and the accompanying drawings Wherein is illuelreed the preferred ferm ef my inveuen, iu which:

Yiewshe handle l is preferably consi'ucted el wood and 'is shaped from e bleek which is of rectangular formation whereby 'libe bofl 2 0i' like brush is'previclefl eb erle erid. of t, ie liendle when 'the latter liefs been pre erly shaped. lt is my purpose te provide Wood materiel .for the reeseu that tli'e burly end handle .muy 'be readily and clieeely formed from this materiel and. il", willfbe ligli and durable when.. eud of 'the body l is drilled e. lougiiudiuul cylindrical iecessv 3 which may be el? any deeired length und preferably lined Willi tiu or other simil-ir me*- riel ier preventing elle contents from being absorbed by elle Weed bedy. l This 'ein lining forms u receptacle for the liquid polish and 'the open enel ef the receptacle is closed by a removable cap l screw tlireudedly mounted on the projected end of' the. liu lining for tbe opening. lt i@Jill be observed in this connection @but the tin lining may be in the form of e bylinflrieel coueiiier adapted te' il elle opening er cylindrical recess 3 whereby 'tbe reeepmele time formed muy be readily removed with lle cover l: eteehed if deiled. lu 'this manner the receptacle and the @over l. may 'be independently manufactured und easily inserted in *die @peiling provided iu the wooden bedy 2.

'the Ainterior of the liquid ,container and the brush bristles se that when 'the brush is held with the bristles 6 extended downwardly the liquid will flow brougli Ltbe opening and profusely meisten lle brisizles 6. The opening in the disk 5 und elle body of the receptacle ei'e eliued with av cylindrical sleeve 8 eif me'el wlieieby lie-liquid flowing through elle opening.; will het be absorbed by the weeelen body or 5. Extending laterally through e. seiew threaded opening in the body is e Valve stem 9 which is also Screw threaded and has e thumb nut, or handle 100e ile ou'er end whereby it may be manipule/ed Le open end close ille passage-wey for reguleing the flow of liquid to the bristles.

In use, the cover -l will iii-st be remove-d, or the interior receptacle muy be entirely removed troni Lthe body und filled with the liquid polish utter which it `will be, replueed und the zover l tightly fixed in position. Then by opening the vulve by turning the thumb nut l0 the liquid will lion' from the Cont-einer to the bristles 6 to profusely saturate the bristlee whereby they may be emi ployed to apply the liquid to the surilfuee et the Shoe. lll/*hen Sullieient liquid hns been applied to the Sui-fece of the leather ot the Shoe, the device may be simply given a halt turn that inverted until the vbrietles are disposed upwardly and the polishing proeess embody the preferred torni.
