The carrier M is of in any desired manneras, for instance, as the usual construction, provided with the shown in Fig. 9 of my Patent No. 721,320 wheels M, adapted to run on the wirmvayA, and at its opposite end in any suitable manand in its lower part with a spring-pressed nerto the castingC.

The forward end of said arm 1) is 1 nected to the carrier for this purpose by passsupported by the wires Cr C", connected to f ing the ends of the shaft i\' through the slots 45 the bracket H at In the lower opposite 1 N and with the carrier transverse to the line ends of said bracket H are two pulleys H, E and by giving the. receptacle a quarter-turn around which passes the propelling-cord J, it is brought parallel to the line, and at the which extends rearwardly around the pulleys l same time one end of the shaft strikes the pin N so that the carrier is held in proper position with relation to the track-wire. The spring-pressed plate NI when the receptacle is inserted, as shown in Fig. at, presses on the upper ends of the side pieces M IV holding the same firmly, in connection with the flange N closed and in fixed position to the carrier. hen it is desired to remove the receptacle, it is turned a quarter-turn to bring the ends of the shaft over the slots N and removed by pulling down. The carrier is retained at the salesmans station by the flat springs K, secured in the usual manner, and at the cashiers or central station by the flat springs L, of the usual construction, secured to the casting C by suitable bolts. This casting C is located on the pin L and held in fixed position by the set-screw L This pin L is part of the sleeve L, adapted to be adjusted on the post L, carried by the clamp L suitably secured on the cross-tube L This cross-tube is supported by the hanger L with the usual clamp L". To this cross-tube L any desired number of lines may be secured by means of the sleeves and clamps, similar to the sleeves L and clamps L The sleeves L may be adjusted and set by the set-screw Lso as to run into the cashiers or central station from different points and affords an accessible and efficient arrangement for securing any number of lines at the central station diverging at different parts of the store.
Having thus described the nature of my invention and set forth a construction embodying the same, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
1. In a store-service apparatus, a way, a carrier adapted to travel on said way, and a removable receptacle connected to said way and consisting of two sections pivoted together and provided with means for opening said sections when removed from the carrier.
2. In a store-service apparatus, a way, a carrier adapted to travel on said way, and a removable receptacle connected to said way and consisting of two sections pivoted together and provided with yielding means for opening said sections when removed from the carrier.
