Science has maue another great
stride. For years, everyone in a cafe

■who had a nickle; that is to say. when
one man put his nickle in the juke

But in a coffee shop in Waco, when
someone drops in a nickle, the tune rs

you have to put in a nickle, too. If you
don’t want to hear it, you just eat
your food-if any.
