Referring now to the drawings, the present device comprises the two circular frames 5 and (i and the U-shaped band or strap 7, the ends of which are secured to the frames, and this band may be of spring material, so that the frames are held yieldably in predetermined relation. In the frames 5 and (i are secured sheets 8 of glass, mica, or other suitable material, these sheets being concaveeonvex, the concaved sides being disposed toward each other, while the confvex sides are The framee and 6 are pressure sufficient to give pain, and the inner sides of the frame may be notched; so that there will be a circulation of airbetvzeenthe,
