1. A device for treating hiccups, comprising: a receptacle including an open interior for housing a liquid;a cap adapted to be operably connected to the receptacle, the cap defining at least one opening providing for passage of liquid from the open interior of the receptacle to an exterior of the receptacle; andonly a single filtering element comprising a replaceable filter including a filter material adapted to be positioned between the open interior of the receptacle and all of the opening in the cap directly adjacent the opening in the cap, the filter material comprising only a solid paper material that will not allow liquid to naturally and freely flow therethrough due to the effects of gravity requiring a user to create a partial vacuum with the user's mouth at the filter material to draw the liquid across the paper material, and wherein, after the paper material is saturated with the liquid the paper material will tear from the force of the liquid against the paper material, and wherein the replaceable filter is adapted to be physically retained by and contacting a portion of the cap and a portion of a body of the receptacle, and wherein the paper material has a pore size between about 0.2 and about 5.0 microns. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein the cap includes a downwardly extending skirt adapted to attach to an upper portion of the receptacle, and wherein the replaceable filter is captured between the skirt and the receptacle. 3. The device of claim 1, wherein the filter material is fixedly attached to the cap. 4. The device of claim 1, wherein the replaceable filter is retained within the cap. 5. A device for treating hiccups, comprising: a receptacle including an open interior for housing a liquid;a cap adapted to be operably connected to the receptacle, the cap defining at least one opening providing for passage of liquid from the open interior of the receptacle to an exterior of the receptacle; anda replaceable filter including a filter material adapted to be positioned between the open interior of the receptacle and all of the opening in the cap directly adjacent the opening in the cap, the filter material comprising only a solid paper material that will not allow liquid to naturally and freely flow therethrough due to the effects of gravity requiring a user to create a partial vacuum with the user's mouth at the filter material to draw the liquid across the paper material, and wherein, after the paper material is saturated with the liquid the paper material will tear from the force of the liquid against the paper material, andwherein the replaceable filter is physically retained by and contacting opposing upper and lower surfaces of the cap, and wherein the paper material has a pore size between about 0.2 and about 5.0 microns. 6. The device of claim 1, wherein the filter further includes an outer rim comprised of a solid material extending at least partially around the filter material. 7. The device of claim 1, wherein the opening is defined within one of the group consisting of: a body of the cap, a structure extending upwardly from the cap, and a nipple. 8. The device of claim 5, wherein the filter material is fixedly attached to the cap. 9. The device of claim 5, wherein the replaceable filter is retained within the cap. 10. The device of claim 5, wherein the filter further includes an outer rim comprised of a solid material extending at least partially around the filter material. 11. The device of claim 5, wherein the opening is defined within one of the group consisting of: a body of the cap, a structure extending upwardly from the cap, and a nipple. 12. A device for treating hiccups, comprising: a receptacle including an open interior for housing a liquid;a cap adapted to be operably connected to the receptacle, the cap defining at least one opening providing for passage of liquid from the open interior of the receptacle to an exterior of the receptacle; anda replaceable filter including a filter material adapted to be positioned between the open interior of the receptacle and all of the opening in the cap directly adjacent the opening in the cap, the filter material comprising only a solid paper material that will not allow liquid to naturally and freely flow therethrough due to the effects of gravity requiring a user to create a partial vacuum with the user's mouth at the filter material to draw the liquid across the paper material, and wherein, after the paper material is saturated with the liquid the paper material will tear from the force of the liquid against the paper material, wherein the paper material has a pore size between about 0.2 and about 5.0 microns. 13. The device of claim 12, wherein the filter material is fixedly attached to the cap. 14. The device of claim 12, wherein the replaceable filter is retained within the cap. 15. The device of claim 12, wherein the filter further includes an outer rim comprised of a solid material extending at least partially around the filter material. 16. The device of claim 12, wherein the opening is defined within one of the group consisting of: a body of the cap, a structure extending upwardly from the cap, and a nipple.
