It further comprehends a novel construction" I ofthe discharge endof a container, and a novel construction of a-cap to cooperate 'with' said r} charge end.
Other novel features or; construction and ad j I vantage will hereinafter clearly appear in the detailed description and the appended claims. For-the purpose of illustrating the inventiomI' have shown in the accompanying drawing typical embodiments or it, which, in practice, will give satisfactory andreliable results. It is, however, to be understood that the various instrumentalities of which myinvention consists can be variously arranged and organized and my invention I is not limited to the exact arrangement and organization of these instrumentalities as herein set forth.

The retaining cap III has a rounded auxiliary sealing portion if:
surrounded by an annular-recess II. The inner face of its flange is provided with an annular -recess or groove [3. The'flange-is split at itsrear 35 Y portion, as seen in Figure 2 The cap has a. bifurcated hinge block 14, the
arms of which have a round opening iipwhichat I the bottom flares in opposite directions as at It to form aguide throat. v I The cap has a lift-nib l1.
In order to assemble the cap with the container, the cap is pressed towards the container.

the nozzle is compressed by the walls of the re-' 7 1' cess l2. The locking flange] snapsintothe-recess or groove l3, thus forming an efllcientand positive lock which can be without The arms oi the hingeblock lljhavesuflicient ring for the trunnions to snap in place an N a e within the nozzle.
2 the cap is thus retained in hinged connection with the container.
The cap can be easily and quickly opened and closed by the thumb of the hand. which grasps the container. r
In'the preferred construction herein disclosed, I do not employ threads, springs or pins, and, assonly two parts are employed, the container and retaining cap can be very economically manufactured.
In the embodiment seen in Figure 9, Ihave shown a different form of a hinge, in which the pin passes through an opening in the lug I and the arms of the hinge block ll.
It will be noted that the nozzle extends beyond the end of thecontainer and terminates in 'an annular edge. If'the container I is for tooth paste. and the tooth brush is drawn across the nozzle-a slight vacuum is created within the nozzle which causes the tooth paste to be withdrawn I It will now beapparent that 1 have I new and useful container with retaining cap which embodies the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement oi the invention and the above descriptio and whiief have, in ,thepresent instance, shown and de-.
