 AT THE STRAND
Famous Story Featuring Alice Joyce and Harry
 Mercy Here All Week

Within the Law" featuring Alice Joyce and Harry Mercy, is at the strand today and will continue all next week
 Within the Law answers the question so often asked. How does he do it and keep out of jail?"
 The answer is plain A clever lawyer can outline some procedure ordinarily criminal, but when surrounded by legal technique is absolutely proof against criminal legal procedure.
 Alice Joyce, in the role of Mary Tur- ner, the shop girl, proves the case. She has been sent to prison for term Of three years for department store theft of which she was innocent While serv- ing her sentence, she studies law. She discovers that she can do many things, absolutely criminal, if she hides behind the skirt of legal procedure.
 When she is released from prison, Mary needs money. She reads the advertise ment of crooked real estate firm seek ing money for investment. She calls upon the real estate sharpers, representing herself to be a wealthy woman. She signs partnership papers, and as one of the partners, obtains the right to check against the firms bank account She withdraws SS0000 from the firms bank account and keeps the money without fear of prosecution
 One of her friends ensne res a wealthy man and keeps his love notes. The girl friend decides to sell the notes back to her wealthy admirer. No" advises Mary, that would be blackmail. We will start breach of promise suit in stead. That is legal blackmaii.' Ten thousand dollars is the regard for threat ening to start the suit
 These are the things, according to Within the Law" that prove person may be without the law" and at the sametime remain out of jail.

The Blood and the Brain

Among the many important physi-
illogical facts that should be as well
known by people generally as they
are by physicians, is the dependence
of the brain for it's proper action on
the vitality of the blood. If this is
impaired, the blood affords an imper-
feet stimulus to the brain, and, as a
necessary consequence, languor and
inactivity of the nervous system fol-
lows, and tendency to headache or
faintness makes it's appearance.
1t is probable that no other medi-
cine ever produced has done more in
the way of revitalizing the blood max
ing it pure and rich, than Hoods Sar-
saparilla, which should certainly be
given a trial where there is any rea-
son to believe that the blood is de-
fective in quality or deficient in guam
tity.
