The box construction includes superimposed layers or flaps each of which has a cut partially through it from the surface adjacent the other, the cuts being aligned. Glue within the cuts holds these box portions together, allowing them to be separated by tearing out only the part within one of the cuts, resulting in a neat appearance without loose shreds. Alternatively, the inner layer may be cut all the way through around an enclosed periphery, held to the remainder of the layer by at least one uncut segment interrupting the cut. Glue within the periphery secures the inner layer to the outer. When the layers are separated, the center within the periphery of the cut is torn out, adhering to the outer layer. The layers may be returned to their original positions where the center enters the cut and holds the layers together by friction. Box closures and spouts are included.
