Bootleg, not only Of liquor, but of
many of the commodities and luxur-
les Of life. Bootleg Of human life
itself.
Bootleg is in the very spirit of
New York. No new laws will stop
it. Nor will the repeal Of any pres
ent laws stop it. 1t is the, great in

to exist by officials Of the law and
by law-respecting citizens and more
or less winked ut because Of the
futility Of trying to stop it.
In any block Of this vast city IL
quor, some good, most Of it bad, can
be purchased. Rum sellers make the
rounds of offices. Hooch can be
bought at furniture stores, restau-
rants, delicatessens, barber shops,
butcher shops, drug stores, shoe
shine parlors, hotels, hardware
stores, gasoline stations and in pri-
vate homes. School children of ia

worth Of whisky, confessed they had

COLDS THAT
DEVELOP into
PNEUMONIA

Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble. You can stop them
now with Creomulsion, an emulsifed
creosote that is pleasant to take. Greco
mulsion is a new medical discovery
with two-fold action; it soOthes and
heals the infamed membranes and in
hibits germ growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is rec
ognized by high medical authorities as
one of the greatest healing agencies for
persistent coughs and colds and other
forms of throat troubles. Creomulsion
contains, in addition to creosote, other
healing elements which s0othe and heal
the infected membranes and stop the
irritation and inflammation, while the
creosote goes on to the stomach, is abb
sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
of the trouble and checks the growth
of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment of persistent
coughs and colds, bronchial asthma,
bronchitis and other forms of respira-
tory diseases, and is excellent for build
ing up the system after colds or flu.
Money refunded if any cough or cold is
not relieved after taking according to
directions. Ask your druggist. CreO-

head

Somehow, it doesn't seem as if,
as if one smoked in this house, does

"That is a curious feeling" he
observed. IT don't imagine my

NO" she replied, 81 wouldn't do
that. But, just the same, don't

She moved away from the table
and to a window. Brandon, cycling
her closely, saw that as she crossed
the room her glance fell again on
the painting over the fireplace. She
looked from the window out into
the avenue, for a minute or two,
then returned suddenly and went
directly up to the fireplace The
action was as if in response to
some occult summons from the girl
who looked down so serenely from
the canvas.
Joanna rested her hand on the
mantle ledge and gazed up into the
face in the portrait. 1t was a picture
that might have amused her, with
its prim, voluminous skirts from
under which just boot toe peeped;
it's lego mutton sleeves and absurd
ly tiny waist that almost shrieked
aloud Of the corsets of yesterday.
The sign Of virgin modesties was

anything quite so ridiculously funny
as any sort Of fashion that had be-

Ventions.
But Brandon, who had dropped his
cigaret into a gold ash tray and
moved softly to one side Of the room
where, under pretense Of examining
a book, he might furtively watch the
girl at the fireplace, saw nothing OF
amusement in her face. Instead he
fancied that some Of the usefulness
