Of this amount has ever been left in
the city treasury. If a man was docked
for any reason the amount taken from
his salary did not remain undemanded
in the treasury. but was distributed
gratuituously among the friends and
creditors OF the County Clerk.
Forty-nine clerks are allowed the
County Clerk to assist him in his work,

that ffty-four men are entitled. accord

June What To Eat.
New York women are at present In the
throes of the latest Partisan fad for reduc-
ing flesh, and are anxiously watching to
see their extra pounds melt away. Fortu-
nately this fad fits into the summer regime
excellently. This Is the secret: Take all
your food cold. or at least iuke-warm. For
breakfast you must shun hot dishes. but
eat your toast and eggs perfectly cold and
drink cold coffee or milk. After this chilly
beginning to the days painting, you must
follow 1t up with luncheon of cold meats,
cold desserts, bread, cheese and salad.
Your dinner must still reek in the ice box
fish mayonnaise, a lukewarm outlet very
lean, cold vegetables, salads and ices, and
no hot beverages. Parisians claim that this
is doing wonders for them and fair New
Workers are following suit in hopes Of at
tanning the willowy style that goes so well
with the ruffles and pillows of lace that
the modiste insists upon, thereby herself
growing opulent Now, as cold dinners are
the rule In summer, even among the sum-
mer cottagers and suburbanites, this fad
will only be a trial at breakfast.

ADJUSTMENTS.


HoIdens I'm esThe Fool OF st. Arven."
The Holden Stock Company Is winding UP
its own season. as well as the regular
theatrical season at the Park. with one Of
the most peculiar entertainments ever seen
at that or any other theater. Yesterday
afternoon the Holden players presented
play called THE Fool Of st. Arven," as
their final offering-with specialties between
acts. Don't forget the specialties between
acts. The chances are that II the Holdens
were to remain another fortnight at the
Park they would be presenting Julius

between scenes. In this instance. Bernice
Howard. who, as the leading woman Of the
organization. always appears as the heroine
of the various plays OF the company's
repertoire. throws aside her dignity be-
tween the first and second acts and comes
out before the footlights accompanied by
little Alice Berry, the juvenile member Of
the troup. and introduces a travssty on

Marriage License for Sale.

Sandy NJ. Hedrick and Fanny Miller were
given permission to marry on May 10 in a
license issued to them by Ed Sourbrier from
the county clerks office. Something must
have gone wrong and the couple were not
married as yesterday a woman appealed to
Clerk Calvert In the Circuit Court TO re-
lieve her of marriage license which she
had been directed to return and had been
paid one dollar for so doing. Calvert sent
her to Sourbrier. who now has a license
which he offers at a reduced rate to any
applicant. The license is good for use in
ninety-two counties in Indiana and has no
time limit.

Concerning Earrings.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
A funny little fad of the moment Is the
wearing of earrings which do not match.
For instance, q smartly frocked woman who
was supping at Sherry's the other evening
wore a white lawn printed with pink roses.
Her blonde hair was crowned by a hat OF
white and pink lilacs and white gloves
reached to her elbows Her only Jewels
were earrings. one a great white pearl. the
other a gray pearl. The effect, far from
being startling or eccentric, was pleasing.
piquant and becoming. One scarcely noticed
the earrings when their wearer faced one
as her little ears were set close to her head,
as ears should be, and ii was only when she
turned her head that one saw the gray or
the white pearl One did not see both al
once. The woman who has ugly or large
ears should eschew earrings. They are to
call attention to the beauty of the ear, Just
rings are designed to call attention to
pretty fingers. pot-as many misguided
women seem TO think-to make less con-
spicuous an overlarge. unshapely or red
hand.
