A WONDERFUL LABOR saw
ING MACHINE,
The Great Improved Cash Register
Number so Every Business Man
Should Have One.

Approaching the commercial interests
of North Carolina, the National Cash
Register Company of Dayton, Ohio, has
wisely selected one of their most eff
cient and clever statesmen, Mr.. John E.
o'Donnell, to represent them in North
Carolina as general agent. Mr.. o'Don-
nell is a first class business man and
thoroughly understands the Cash Regis
ter business in all its details. He has
the happy faculty of at once deeply in
teresting the prospective purchasers by
his easy manner of making very plain
every detail of his great labor saving
machine and completely convincing them
of the urgent necessity of haging a
National Cash Register to aid their BUSH
ness. Mr.. O'Donnell has represented his
company in this State for the past two
years. His office is in room No 413,
Tucker Building, Raleigh, N. c. When
he first came to the State there were but
few of his machines in use here He at
once looked the field over and fully real
izing great possibilities went vigorously
and energetically to work and today his
average monthly sales of National Cash
Registers run from Is to S5 machines!
The latest, most unique, and really Won
derful Of the companys many productions
is their great labor saving Number

and is made up in beautiful highly poll
ished quarter sawed oak and elegant ma
hcgany woods. This machine weighs from
$50 to 500 pounds. 1t is made with from
two to nine separate drawers. For in
stance, suppose a merchant employs nine
clerks he would need machine with
nine drawers Each clerk or salesman
is assigned one of these drawers and has
his own initial key with which to oper-
ate his own drawer, ana whenever he
leaves the store can lock UP his initial
key and no one can then get into his
cash drawer Each drawer is separate
ly and individually equipped with its own
gong bell with an entirely different
sound and tone from the others. At the
end of the days business each clerk
counts UP his own sales but cannot tell
whether there is any mistake or not in
his cash, but only the proprietor or man
ager when he checks up the machine can
unfailingly detect the slightest mistake
and know the salesman who made it.
This perfect system enables the business
management TO always hold each sales
man responsible for his sales.
This improved No. so" machine, with
its separate individual cash drawers, is
the very latest invention of the National
Cash Register Company and completely
fills the needs of merchants employing
from two TO nine clerks. The machines
are marvels of perfect workmanship and
artistic beauty, every part of them is
made of the best and finest material, and
are fully and completely guaranteed by
the Company, The record of the Ma
tional Cash Register Company is most
marvellous and wonderful In 1882 they
had only one salesman and sold so ma
chimes in 1890 they employed 12S sales
men and sold 1901 machines; in 1900,
they, employed 40 statesmen and sold
Al 343 machines, employing $3.50 men in
their factories, and making 16l different
styles of machines. The month of Ieb
ruary of this year shows an increase of

Their statesmen and agents are to be
found in all countries. The writer called
