CARRIES COINS IN HIS EARS
California Man Has Cash Register
System That Is Exclusive
and Unique.

Fall River Mills, Cal.-Women carry
their loose change in their stockings,
children put their money in their
mouths, but Norris Bethel, head clerk
of Florin Brothers of this place, makes
a cash register of his ears.
When he is selling goods and is in
a hurry for a nickel or a dime to
make change, he reaches to one ear
or the other and finds the needed
coin.
Or, if he receives a small coin and
is at some distance from the cash reg
lister, he puts it into one of his ears
until he has use for it or until he is
close to the cash register and can re-
lieve himself
The system is considered unique,
and it is BetheIs exclusively.
