         2 . The combination of  claim 1  wherein said housing is of a lateral surface area greater at said open top than at said ported bottom.  
     
     
         3 . The combination of  claim 2  wherein said housing is of a depth sloping downwardly from said open top to said ported bottom of gradually decreasing angle.  
     
     
         4 . The combination chair of  claim 3  wherein said housing is of a rectangular cross-section at said open top.  
     
     
         5 . The combination of  claim 3  wherein said outlet port is substantially centered beneath said open top.  
     
     
         6 . The combination of  claim 3  wherein said outlet port is offset to one side beneath said open top.  
     
     
         7 . The combination of  claim 3  wherein said brush spanning across said housing is of a length greater than the width of a ceiling fan blade.  
     
     
         8 . The combination of  claim 7  wherein said brush spanning across said housing is of a length at least 4 inches.  
     
     
         9 . The combination of  claim 7  wherein said brush spanning across said housing is of a length between 4 and 12 inches.  
     
     
         10 . The combination of  claim 2  wherein a portion of said brush extends downwardly within said housing.  
     
     
         11 . The combination of  claim 10  wherein said brush includes first and second rows of bristles separated by at least the thickness of a ceiling fan blade.  
     
     
         12 . The combination of  claim 11  wherein individual bristles of each of said first and second separated rows are spaced apart one from another.  
     
     
         13 . The combination of  claim 1  wherein said vacuum hose is securable with said outlet port by an encirclement therewith.  
     
     
         14 . The combination of  claim 13  wherein said vacuum hose is securable with said outlet port by a snug fit therebetween.
