When it is desired to vided wall forming sections I3, I4, I5 and I6 dispense a portion of the contents it is merely each having aps at its upper and lower ends necessary to grasp the outer end of the strip and which are to bebent inwardly along the lines by exerting apulling action tear the strip loose Il and I8 to form upper and lower heads for at the neck 26. The strip can then be drawn outr Cil wardly as shown in Fig. 8 and contents of the receptacle can flow out through the openings 2l and 24 which will then serve as a discharge passage. After a desired quantity has passed out of the receptacle the strip can be returned to its retracted position in which its inner end will extend across the two openings and effectively close the discharge passage. The container can then be placed upon a shelf in an upright position and dust and insects will be prevented from passing into the receptacle. disposed between the flap 3 and innerflaps 2 and ll will cause it to be well supported and as a longitudinally extending slot is formed in the flap 5 when the strip is torn loose, the strip will be guided in its sliding movement and retained in position to properly close the discharge passage when in its retracted position.
Although we have herein described a single complete embodiment of our invention, it should be understood that numerous modications might easily be devised by workers skilled in the art to which this case relates, Without departing from the spirit of the invention, as the same is indicated above and in the following claims.
What we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
1. A dispensing container comprising a receptacle initially open at its upper end and having end flaps and side flaps folded inwardly with the side iaps overlying the end flaps one upon the other and together with the end flaps forming a head for the receptacle having inner and outer upper plies, one end iiap being formed with an opening and the outer ply having a detachable portion above the opening for forming `a second opening alined with the rst opening, the inner ply having a portion cut therefrom to form a strip extending between the outer ply and end flaps with its outer end projecting to form a nger hold and its inner end detachably held in engagement with the body of theY inner ply whereby the strip may be torn loose by pull exerted longitudinally of the strip and drawn outwardly to move The fact that the strip -isr its inner end portion from across the openings and permit dispensing through the openings.
2. A dispensing container comprising a receptacle, a head closing the upper end of said receptacle and having inner plies extending towards each other from opposed walls of the receptacle, an intermediate ply resting against the inner plies and an outer ply covering the intermediate ply and secured thereto, one inner ply having an opening formed therein and the outer ply having alreadily removable portion over the opening and when` removed forming an outer opening alined with the inner opening, said intermediate ply having spaced slits leading from one end and deiining a strip having a fragment of its inner end integrally united'to the body of the inner ply and its outer end portion projecting from an end of the head and constituting a nger hold, a portion of the outer ply above the outer end portion of said strip being cut away whereby the strip may be readily grasped and pulled longitudinally to detach its inner end and draw the-strip outwardly to shift its inner end portion out of a closing position across Athe alined openings.
3. A dispensing container comprising a recep tacle, a head for the upper end of said receptacle consisting of flaps carried by walls of the receptacle and folded inwardly one -upon another to provide vguides and upper and lower plies above the guides, one guide having an opening formed therein and the upper ply having a. weakened portion detachable to form an opening lined with the first opening and together therewith forming a discharge passage, and a strip cut from the lower ply and slidablelongitudinally between the upper ply and guides into and out of position to dispose a portion across the openings in closing relation to the discharge passage, one end portion of said strip being exposed and constituting a nger hold to be grasped when actuating the strip.
