| Abstract: |
A liquid-tight container has a hole formed through the top. An opening formed through the container in spaced relation with the hole is selectively covered by a closable cover. A belt clip affixed to the back of the container removably affixes the container to a belt worn by a user. A hose is affixed at one end to the top of the container at the hole therethrough and opens into the container. A funnel is affixed to the hose at the opposite end thereof and opens into the hose whereby the user may expectorate into the container via the funnel and the hose.
