line may be inserted, a partition formed of a filter medium disposable
between the side wall of the housing and the discharge end portion when
such portion is inserted through the upper wall opening of the housing,
providing a closed chamber and an open chamber communicating with the
lower open end of the housing, and an outlet communicating with the
closed chamber; and means mounted on a lower end of the housing side wall
selectively operable to engage the spout when the lower end of the
