SE| ; VANTED A LICEN ‘the City Clerk Was Mistaken as to the Kind. ‘One of our Maine cities has a city clerk that prides himself on his powers as a mind reader, says the Belfast Cream. While I was calling on him not long since a lean, unshaven, un- couth specimen of backwoods hu- manity came shuflling in through the door. Our presence apparently rat- tled him, for he quickly assumed @ leaning position against the door jamb at an angle of about 44 degre It was plain to see he had something on his mind that troubled him, The city clerk, turning aside to me, said inalow tone: “I can tell inaminute when a man comes for a marriage license, There is something about the victim of misplaced confi- dence about to enter matrimonial misery that I cannot explain, but my intuition never plays me false.

Her face colored a little, and she finally re- plied: “I think itis a business letter.” The man inside the window took out a handful of letters from the case and hastily looked them over. He found no letter for the girl, and soin- formed her. Her face bore evidences away, The clerk thought nothing more of the matter, and did not suppose she had taken his remark seriously.

An Actor Who Coaches Clergymen, Also Lawyers. It is generally regarded as a long step from the stage to the bad and yet there is an actor in New York whose acting is reproduced in many @ church on Sunday morning. And although the law is not generally asso- ciated with the drama, there is many an attorney pleading his client’s cause at the bar Of justice, whose eloquence is but the reflex of the actor's art. Thus are three great professions, the church, the law and the drama close- ly allied, and the first two gain their inspiration, from the third. On the fourth floor of the Broad- way theater Building, just around the corner from where the clevator lands you, is a door on which is the sign “F, F, Mackey.” It is beyond that unpretentious portal that cler men are coached in their Sunday's sermon by a vy teran disciple of the drama, and law). 3 come for advice and instruction as ‘o the most effec tive me presenting some im portant plea in court Mr, Mackey ostensibly conducts # school of acting.
