Abstract
A dispensing container comprising a molded plastic bottle and a cap. The molded plastic bottle has a top closed end, a cylindrical side wall, and a shoulder section at a dispensing end of the side wall. The shoulder has one or more indented portions which form the positioning lugs in the shoulder section. The plastic bottle also has a neck with external threads defining a mouth. The cap is selectively connected to the neck. The cap has an internally threaded cuff for interconnection with the external threads of the neck. The cap also has structure for dispensing of an enclosed material which is near the mouth. The cap is cup-shaped with a face and a cylindrical wall extending from the face to define an interior of the cap. When the cap is connected to the neck, the indented portions which form the positioning lugs in the shoulder are hidden from view within the interior of the cap.
