It will be further apparent that if it is desired to clean the comb all the teeth may be removed by an upward pressure on the pointed ends thereof and after washing and cleansing in an antiseptic solution they may be quickly replaced and the comb be thus cleansed of any foreign substance which accumulated thereon.
Having thus described my invention,what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A comb com rising a back provided with a longitudinal y-extending recess in the rear face thereof, a plurality of openings extending from the floor of said recess downwardly, a plurality of teeth each of which is adapted to be inserted in one of said openings, anda strip positioned in said recess constituting a common abutment for said teeth.

3. A toilet comb comprising a back provided with a recess in the rear face thereof having inclined lateral edges and a plurality of openings extending from the floor of said recess downwardly, a plurality of teeth mounted in said openings and secured therein by frictional engagement with the sides thereof, and a strip adapted to fill said recess for securing said teeth against dislodgment.
4. A comb comprising a back provided with a recess in the rear face thereof having overhanging end portions and a plurality of openings spaced apart extending from the floor of said recess downwardly, the spaces between said openings constituting partitions integral with the back of said comb, a plurality of teeth frictionally mounted in said opemngs, and a filler strip constituting an abutment for the rear ends of said teeth. provided with inclined ends adapted to be sprung into said recess and be secured in position by the overhanging ends of said. recess.
5. A toilet comb comprising a back provided with a recess in the rear face thereof having overhanging ends and a plurality of tapering openings extending from the floor of said recess downwardly, a plurality of teeth mounted in said openings the spaces between said openings constituting partitions integral with the back of said comb a filler strip adapted to be positioned in said recess provided with inclined end portions arranged to engage under the overhanging ends of said recess, and a holdfast device for securing the medial portion of said strip to the back of said comb.
6. A comb comprising a back provided with a recess in the rear face thereof, said. rccess having inclined lateral sides and overhanging ends and a plurality of spaced apart openings extending from the floor of said. recess downwardly, a plurality of teeth mounted in said openings, a filler strip adapted to constitute an abutment for said teeth. arranged to be sprung into said recess and be secured under the overhanging end portions thereof, and a cushioning strip of elastic material interposed between the floor of said recess and the bottom of said strip.
7. A toilet comb comprising a back provided with a recess in the rear face thereof and a plurality of spaced apart diamondshaped openings extending from the floor of said recess downwardly, a plurality of teeth similar in crosssection to said openings mounted in said openings and a strip constituting an abutment for said teeth positioned in said recess.
