Beit known that I, Josn'rn' W 'Ten HAwl Kms, a citizen of the United States, 'and a'. resident o f Passaic, the fcountynf Passaic' and State of."New"Jersey,l have invented a e object of the invention'iste a 'new and improved shaving-brush arranged to collect the drippin', and thus prevent the manipulating the 'brush to apply Water and` lathento the face and .to allow of freshenn of the lather bythe drip-'water' gather A further object ,is to permit' folding of the brushY to take up very httleroom-for travel-v -1n packing, and storing purposes;v

he invention consists ok'novel features and l parts .and `i'o'mbinations of thel same which will be more fully described hereinafter and then pointed out inthe claims.
