G is again closed as well as ,the vent-pipe I.

In the casing D is arranged a stopper G, The funnel F has its outlet at one side, as

of glass or other suitable material and norindicated in Figs. l and 3, so that unauthormally litting into the lower portion of the ized persons cannot well get at the stopperG` casing D when the bottle A is in an upright and hold the same in an open position for refilling the bottle with spurious goods after the bottle has been once emptied of its original contents.

The device is very simple and durable in construction, is not liable to get out of order,

can be cheaply manufactured, and readily placed in position.

Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A non-reillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of a bottle, a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, and an outlet-tube ixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into said stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, as set forth.

2. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of a bottle, a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into said stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, said tube being polygonal in cross-section to form a guideway for the stopper 'to slidein, and to prevent the stopper from turning, as set forth.

3. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing Iixed in the neck of a bottle, aconical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other end ofthe tube opening into the said stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, and a cover for said casing and serving to limit the outward, movement of said stopper, the coverhaving an aperture adapted to register with said channel when the stopper has moved into an outer position, as set forth.

4. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of a bottle, a conical stop- `casing and opening at one end into the bottle,

the other end of the tube opening into the said stopper-outlet When the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, a cover for said casing and serving to limit the outward vmovement of said stopper, the cover having an aperture adapted to register with said channel Whenthe stopper has moved into an outer position,and a funnel over Said casing and cover and having its opening at one side, as set forth.

5. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing xed in the neck of a bottle,a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into said stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, and an air-vent pipe extending from the casing into the bottle, the air-vent pipe being normally closed bythe stopper, as set forth.

6. .A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of a bottle, a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into said .stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, an air-vent pipe extending from the casing into the bottle, the air-vent pipe being normally closed by the stopper, a cover over said casing and having an air-vent opening, and a funnel over said casing and cover and having an air-vent opening, as set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. u
