ABSTRACT:
A forked member has a shank with two spaced outwardly disposed prongs at one end. These prongs have outer surfaces with longitudinally extending grooves and tips with transversely disposed aligned bores essentially coplanar with the grooves. A longitudinally disposed sleeve is secured at one end to the other end of the shank. The sleeve has a first conically shaped hollow bore extending longitudinally through the sleeve between the ends. The apex of the bore is disposed at one end of the sleeve. The sleeve has a second bore extending transversely from the outside surface to the apex. A floss cutter is secured to the shank adjacent its other end. A hollow container with floss therein detachably engages the sleeve. The floss passes through the first and second bores, along the grooves and through the aligned bores of the prongs and terminates at the cutter. A manually adjustable device secured to the shank intermediate its ends detachably engages the floss both before it reaches the prongs and after it leaves the prongs to draw taut that portion of the floss which extends between the aligned bores in the prongs.
