To all whom it may concern;

KRAMER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Receptacle- Covers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and'useful improvements in covers for steamers and other receptacles and comprises essentially a hood adapted to be connected to a movable, perforated slide and so arranged that the handle may be utilized as a means for moving the slide to close or open the apparatus.

The invention comprises various details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts which will be hereinafter fully described and then specifically defined in the appended claim.

My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of my invention. Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view showing a perforated slide positioned to close perforations in the cover. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the apertures in the slide and cover in registration. Fig. at is a vertical sectional view through the cover showing the parts positioned as in Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a similar view through the cover showing the parts positioned as in Fig. 2.

Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates a Specification of Letters Patent.
