An object of the invention is to provide a dauber which is inexpensive to manufacture and which may be readily taken apart to permit of the replacement of worn parts.

5 Another object of the invention is to provide a dauber with a fabric which encloses a member, the fabric being secured in a casing which may be held by the fingers when using the dauber.

Still another object of the invention is to provide a dauber with a casing in which is disposed a block, preferably a block of cork, another member, which may be of an absorbent member, being disposed against the 15 block and being enclosed by a cloth which has portions held between the block and the casing.

Additional objects of the invention will appear in the following specification in which 20 the preferred form of the invention is described.

In the drawing similar reference characters refer to similar parts in all the views, of which Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating a5 the dauber,

Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view of the dauber, and

Figure 3 is a view of the cork block and the felt absorbent member with the cloth as they 3o are disposed and before the cloth is wrapped around and secured to the cork block.

By referring to the drawing it will be seen that the dauber is pro-vided `with a casing 10 which has a bead 11 therearound, this bead 35 serving to prevent the fingers, when holding the casing, from slipping to the open end of the casing where they may be soiled. Disposed in the casing there is a block, preferably a block of cork 12, and disposed against the o outer side of the block of cork 12 there is a member 13 which is preferably absorbent as well as resilient. This member 13 may be a felt. It will also be understood that the cork member 12 is resistant to the passage of moisture and that it has a strong resistance to deterioration and, also, that it is compressible and resilient. It will also be seen that the inner end of the member 13 is disposed with- 5o in the casing and the outer end of the member 1'3e'xtends beyond theivcasingfas shown'in Figure 2'. i

"Disposed" against the outeriend and the sides of the member 13 there isa clothv or'fab-l ric 14, the cloth or fabric 1 4 having portions 15 which extend between Ithe sides of the cork block 12 and vthe sides of the casing '-10 and portions 16 which extend at the inner end v of the cork block 12 and which are preferably secured thereto. As illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawing the portions 16 of the cloth or fabric 14 are disposed overeach other and are secured in place by a tack 17 which extends into the cork block 12. However, 'it will be understood that these portions 16of the cloth or fabric'14 may be securedV to the cork block 12 in any desired manner.v Y

As illustrated in Figure 3 of the drawing1 the member 13 is disposed on the cloth or fabric 14 with the cork block'12 disposed on the member 13, then, when the sides of the, cloth V'or fabric 14 are disposed upwardly against thesides of the member 13 and the cork block 12, the said sides extend over thel top of the cork block 12 to which they are secured. The cork block 12, with the cloth or fabric 14 securedthereto, lis then disposed in the 'open end of the casingl() and shownl in Figure 2, the inner end of the member 13 being enclosed within the sides'of the casing 10'."" f What is claimed is vof s, St

1. In a dauber, a casing, a block havingV substantially parallel faces and disposed in the casing, an absorbent member having its inner portion disposed against the outer face of the block and within the casing, the outer portion of the absorbent member extending beyond the casing, and a cloth disposed over the absorbent member and having portions disposed between the casing and the block.

2. In a dauber, a casing, a cork block disposed in the casing, a felt member disposed against the cork block and extending beyond the casing, and a cloth disposed over theA felt member and having portions disposed be-I Y tween .thefcasing and the cork block.

3. Ina dauber, a casing having a head with side walls extending from the head,. aV block disposedv wholly within the casing and having inner and outer faces and sides, the block having its inner face disposed at the head andits sides disposed within the side walls, an absorbent member having its inner portion disposed against the outer face of the blockand with its sides at its inner portion disposed Within thev side walls of the casing, the outer portion of the absorbent member extending beyond the side walls ofthe casing, i

and acloth disposed over/the absorbent menu?l ber and having portions disposed between the Y 'Y ,casing and the block and being secured tol l Y the block. n 4. In a dauber', a casing having a head with side walls extending from the head, a block disposed wholly within the v.casing and having substantially parallel inner and outer faces, the peripheries of which :are connected by the Vsides vof the block, the block having its 2Q inner face disposed at the head and its sides disposed within the sidewalls, an absorbent member having its inner portion disposed i against the outerace of the block andV with its sidesy at its inner portion disposed within the side walls ofV the casing, the outer portion of the absorbentrmember extending beyond the side Walls of the casing, a cloth disposed over the absorbent member and having portions disposed between the casing and the 80 block, and vmeans for securingthe cloth to the inner .face of the block'.
