in operation.

Vith the above and other objects in view the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts I as hereinafter setforth, shown in the drawings,described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment ofthe invention may be made within the'scope of what is claimed without departingfrom the spirit of the invention.

In the drawings; g v

If so'desired the upper end of the-plunger 5 may be provided with a member 8, by means of which member the brush when not in use may be suspended from a suitable support for drying and draining purposes; Interposedbetween the adjacent ends of the handle sections 2'and 4 is a washer 9 preferably formed from resilient material, which washer prevents entrance of water to the chamber 3 during a shaving operation.

The lower end of the collapsible tube 7 is v provided with a flanged discharge neck 10 which is threaded at 11 into the disc 12. Thedisc 12 is in turn threaded at 13 on the upper enl. of a discharge tube 14, which tube extends through the butt end '15 of the brush 1 1 and .is imbedded in said butt end, and held therein by the close engagement of the butt ends of the bristles, which is encased in the annular sleeve16. Annular sleeve 16 is disposed within an annular recess 17 in the removable lower end section 4 of the'handle member and rests upon the flange 18. r The disc'1'2 is disposed within the upper end of the chamber-17 and rests upon an annular shoulder 19, and is held against downward displacement bysaid shoulder "19 and against upward displacement by the engagement of the lower face 20 of thebrush handle section 2 with the, upper face ofthe disc 12. Thelower end of the discharge tube 14 i extends'below the lower end of the removable section 4 and is provided with a flexible and pliable nipple 21, through which the soap from the collapsible tube 7 is discharged. The nipple 21 forms'means for preventing injury 'to the face of the user of thevb'rush during a lathering operation.

After the contents of he tube 7 have been consuined, a new tube 7 is placed in the chamber 3 by simplyre'moving the handle. section 4 and unscrewing the old collapsed tube 7 from the disc 12 and replacing the same with a new tube, after which the handle section 4 is again screwed on the lower end of the handle'section 2.

-From the above-it will be seen that a fountain shaving brush is provided wherein conventional forms of collapsible soap tubes may be placed within the brush and the con tents thereof utilized as desired.
