Add semi-colons ; to the end of the function calls in order for them both to work.

 <input id="btn" type="button" value="click" onclick="pay(); cls();"/>

I don't believe the last one is required but hey, might as well add it in for good measure.

Here is a good reference from SitePoint http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/event-attributes/onclick
