YoNKERs HAS 50 TOO MUCH
Hunt for Ineficiency Shows Surplus
in City Treasury.

YONKERS. N Y, June 12-This city
now knows the exact difference between
the cash on hand in the City Treasury
and what ought to be there.
Expert accountants, after working for
several months, found that there was ex-
actly 81 too much cash on hand. They
found also that this was because City
Clerk Joseph e. O'BFien had turned int1
the City Treasury 50 in license fees he
should have put into his own pocket. Bx-
cept for that discrepancy the citys finan-
cial records were kept perfectly.
Critics of Mayor Lemons administra-
tion caused the investigation. and high
priced firm of expert accountants was put
10 work. The accountants have not yet
put in their bill for finding the % dis

Can You Go Straight?

The above question Is. not intended
to be personal We are quite sure that
you are a good. steady going citizen:
but. all the same. we IRE equally sure
that you.cannot walk straight without
the help of your eyes Naturally your
tendency is to walk in circle. and
you would do this If your eyes We're
not constantly correcting the tendency
You may easily test this. Place two
stakes In your garden about eight feet
apart, take up position some sixty
feet away, get some one to blindfold
you and then try to walk between the
two stakes. You will find that you
are going in a circle
Why? The explanation is very sim
pie. You walk faster with one foot
than with the other. Everybody does
One leg always takes longer stride.

Unique Bible Character.

One of the few men in the Bible
who have nothing recorded against
them is Joseph of Arimathea Every
one of the eyangelists has good word
TO say for Joseph. One says he was
an honorable counselor" another that
he was just man. another that he
was "a rich man. another that he was
secret disciple Only one of the
evangelists speaks of the birth of
Christ. but all four of them erect
monument 10 Joseph of Arimathea
When he became disciple we are not
told DIR. Andrew Bonar of Scotland
says he can just imagine that Nico
demus may have been moved by 10
seph of Arimathea TO believe in Christ
At all events. Nicodemus didn't come
out very boldly himself He didn't get
his discipIesnip out very clear. They
were both members of the sanhedrin
but it is evident that none knew that
Joseph was a secret disciple until a
certain night.-Christian Herald

THE New Henrietta" with its
five-star cast of principals, will
be the attraction at the Tacoma
theater on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, October 5 and 8.
This brilliant comedy stands
unrivaled in the list of popular
successes of last season. The
past dozen months have been
fraught with uncertainty in the
amusement field and in many in
stances hitherto infallible maha-
gerial Judgment has been re-
versed by the public. But from
the time of its metropolitan pre-
miers last season in the Knicker-
booker theater. New York, THE
New Henrietta" has maintained
its hold on discriminating thea
ter-goers and it's popularity Is
easily accounted for.
Any play submitted to the
public with William II. Crane.
Thomas w, Ross, Maclyn Ar
buckle, Laura Hope Crews and
Mabel Taliaferro as co-stars could
not but create furore, and when
the work is of such sterling merit
Bronson Howard has offered the
combination affords treat sell

ment. Each of these distinguish
ed stars Is provided with a role
offering exceptional opportunities
for the display of his or her own

There never has been only one

proud and others too shy to own
up to it; but believe that from

getting married than anything

whole education, her whole mode

She is taught If she doesn't marry

There is nothing for her to do
