This gift of nature, is not adulterated, is q
most excellent remedy for many sick p O 10

EARLY CLOSING
And the Startling Eject 1t Has on tn
HlprHa

And the Startling Eject 1t Has ON the
Clerks.
Now that the early closing movement
has gotten good start of, great many
clerks in different branches Of business
find themselves rather at loss how to put
in the evenings. Those who have sweet
hearts cant find the nerve TO inhict them
selves upon the young ladies every night
and they have hardly had time to cult;
vste enough others to fill the week out, 80
OF an evening lots Of young men are seen
wandering around with their hands in their
pockets, and sort of lost expression upon
their faces. There are the semigood young
men who are just unwise enough not to
find pleasure in going to the library
to spend the evening in reading, or 60
home AID read there. Of course the real
good, model young men-and sed to
say they are not largely numbered
among the clerks, of course find lots of
amusement and recreation at the Young
Mems Christian Association and in reading
or Studying The early closing movement
is benefit to them.
The majority of clerks are pretty good
boys, but among them there are those who
like to go oct and have time with the
boys, and this class ia in the worst quandsry
of all. COT course boys, before we go any
further understand that this is no lecture }
Finding themselves let loose upon the town
every night with no increased amount of
spending money, they are almost psralyzed.
Formerly one or two nights in a week con-
sumed all their spare change, but now that
they have seven of, the rspidity with which
money melts away is something appalling
For the two next evenings after payday
they have an elegant time,
but after that they cannot even
accept an "Pll shake you dice for the
drinks" challenge from a friend, unless
they stand in with the bsrkeeper and he
has a slate. But during these close times
bsrkeepers do not do much of the mark
it down on a cake of ice business, 80 the
young man is compelled to decline. The
fly young man is also compelled to nod his
head when asked to set in at q game Of i've
cent ante or qusrter-s-cOrner spider. 10
tact the said fly young clerks are very
much worried over the problem Of how to
make their salaries hold out from one pay
day to another, and it is rumored the pawn
brokerage business is already beginning to
feel very perceptible Frightening.

We Don't KnoE.

To tie Editor Of Ds Register:
SIR:-Iu the course of an interview with
Mr.. A. C. Egerter, in this mornings In
telligencer, | find the following:
The figures set down for doing this
work show that the committee in drawing
up the ordinance knew sboat as much
s5out the cost as q baby does about
geometry. There is appropriated to the
Board by that ordinance $50, 68l. and an
estimated 10 cent levy fund of $4,000,
making $50 6Sl of an appropriation
in all. The ordinance lays out
work that it is estimated will cost
$50, 7sI-say SEC. 900 in ali, leaving US q
little over $, 900 to be used for street clean.
ing, salaries ard contingencies No pro.
vision is made for curbing throughout the
city, paving cutters and crossings or sewer
pipe and laying the same, which we esti.
mated would cost $l3,S50"
| would like to know why Mr.. Egerter,
in this statement, makes no mention Of the
contingent fund Of the Board. which will
amount to something like $4,000, and
which viii swell the total amount of money
coming into the treasury efths Board from
$69. 6Sl to S92,6Sl, leaving $50, 060 TO be
used for street cleaning, salaries and con.
tingeneie1," instssd of $4,000. repeat
Why is no mention made OF this contingent
fund? 10.
