The invention claimed is: 1. A hand-held sprayer for selectively providing one of a fine water particle mist, an intermittent shower, and a continuous shower, comprising: a casing comprising a grip at a lower end and a head at an upper end thereof, the casing including a frontwardly facing large-diameter cylindrical portion formed integrally at a center of the head, the casing including a flow passage therein; a flexible tube having a tip end attached to the grip portion of said casing; a pan including a pan fitted body fitted into a front opening of the cylindrical portion, the pan including pan water passing holes; a first seal for sealing the fitted body of the pan with the cylindrical portion; a first case having an inner bottom rotatably fitted into a front opening of said pan fitted body, the first case including a plurality of first case water passing holes that are selectively alignable with predetermined ones of the pan water passing holes; a second seal for sealing an outer peripheral surface of the pan fitted body and an inner peripheral surface of the first case; a second case having an inner bottom fitted into a front opening of the first case and a plurality of second case water passing holes; a third seal for sealing an outer peripheral surface of the first case and an inner peripheral surface of the second case; a third case having an inner bottom fitted into a front opening of the second case and a plurality of third case water passing holes, the third case having a plurality of water discharge grooves formed on a outer peripheral wall thereof for defining a shower water discharge path between the second case and the third case; a fourth seal for sealing portions of an outer peripheral surface of the second case and an inner peripheral surface of the third case; a center shaft extending from the cylindrical portion of the casing through the first, second and third cases; an intermittent spray device fitted into a front opening of the third case, the spray device having a plurality of water intake holes in a rear surface thereof and water discharge holes in a front surface thereof, the intermittent spray device including rotatable vanes located therein; and a switching portion secured to said first case and rotatable with respect to the head of said sprayer, wherein rotation of said switch portion rotates said first case so that various ones of said holes are positionable to provide one of fine water particles as a mist, continuous shower and intermittent shower. 2. The hand-held sprayer of claim 1, further comprising: attachment ports formed in a peripheral wall of the first case; a connection tube coupled to the attachment ports; spray nozzles connected to a distal end of the connection tube, each said spray nozzle including a main nozzle body connected to the connection tube and a cap secured to a front surface of said nozzle body, the cap including a spray hole therethrough dimensioned for outputting fine water particles as a mist. 3. The handheld sprayer of claim 2, wherein the spray nozzles are not spaced symmetrically about the longitudinal axis of the center shaft. 4. The hand-held sprayer of claim 2, wherein the plurality of water discharge grooves and the spray nozzles are concentric with respect to a longitudinal axis of the center shaft. 5. The handheld sprayer of claim 4, wherein the spray nozzles are located outwardly from the longitudinal axis a distance greater than the distance of either the water discharge holes or the water discharge grooves from the longitudinal axis. 6. The handheld sprayer of claim 5, wherein the spray nozzles are not spaced symmetrically about the longitudinal axis of the center shaft. 7. The handheld sprayer of claim 1, wherein said seals comprise O-rings. 8. The hand-held sprayer of claim 1, wherein, with respect to a longitudinal axis projecting transverse from the front face of the casing, said cases are arranged concentrically thereto, and wherein said spray nozzle for outputting fine water particles as a mist is spaced outwardly from the longitudinal axis beyond the various water discharge means. 9. The hand-held sprayer of claim 1, wherein said spray nozzle comprises one of a plurality of spray nozzles, said spray nozzles not being spaced symmetrically about the longitudinal axis.
