  • the .invention is illustrated as embodiedin a can of light metal and 'circular in shape. It will be understood, however, that such a can has been Y selected linerely as illustrative, and the invention is not to be restricted t such shape or such material; As shown, howeverthere is provided a can of light instal marked generally l, this can being capacitated to carry the desired amount ofbulk powder indicated by P, as, for instance, a pound.
  • This bor' body is providedwith side wallsl 2 whichinay be, if desired, turnedoverat the top, Yas' indicatedrat 3, to forni ⁇ ai strengthening Harige.l
  • Thebody 1 is ⁇ provided with valoovttonu shaving a downwardly extending flange 5 which is bent upwardly; .as indicated at 6,'to form a recess-for the reception of the walls 2 of the box,- these wallsv being held-in the groove and pinched in by squeezing upV the metal so as to Vfirmly hold the parts; together, this construction forming a strong rigid body, Y
  • Thi bodyy 'l is capacitated,f as before stated', to carry the ,desired aniount of powder, and this powder, if desired,v may of course be put loosely in the body:
  • the'. powder will-be carried-in a container or drum which nay be, as illustrated, of two parts,an enter walled' receptacle 7 .having avbottomV-S and an inner walled receptacle 9 open at Vtlie bottom but Vproefided with a top 1Q :of seine easily frangible material, as paper.
  • Iii asseihbliig the-parts the powder is placed in the receptacle 7 and-the'receptaele forced downs as to occupy the shown in puff, and the closure is provided with a lid.'
  • This closure is associated withA the box body so as to have a tight friction fit and prevent the accident-al escape of powder, and the lid or cover for the closure is so arranged and socooperates with the puff as to effectually seal the powder in the closure and prevent accidental escape of the powder therefrom.
  • This closure is provided with a central dishe-d portion 11 which isl extended upwardly, as indicated at 12, and then outwardly, as indicated at 13, to form -a horizontal flange.
  • This flange is extended upwardly to form a vertical flange 14 which has a tight friction fit with the inner surface of the walls 2 of the box body.
  • the metal of the closure is also bent upon itself, as indicated at 15, to form a flange which will rest :on the top 3 of the walls 2 of the body, this flange 15 extending inwardly and then upwardly to form a vertical flange v16, this vertical flange being bent ⁇ upon itself, as indicated. at 17, to form a strengthening rib.
  • closure Cooperating with this closure is a cove?. ⁇ or lid 18 which is provided with a horizontal rib 19 which rests on the rib 17 of the closure and a downwardly depending flange 20, this flange being slightly longer than thc flange 16 so that it projects below this latter flange.
