Reno, Nev. (U.R) The night life girls of Reno, whose job It is to spread good cheer and hospitality to divorce-seekers, and furnish a satin lining to gambling houses and cabarets, are taking on weight. The sylph-like silhouettes of yesteryear's charm girls are dis appearing with the change from Iced tea to whiskey drinking. The booster, or "B" girl who drinks with the patrons for a percentage no longer gets the impotent "shot" of tea from a special bottle behind the bar, because the federal alcohol re strictions require all bottles to be the real thing, with tax stamp affixed and the bottle Relief At Last For Your Cough Even If other medicines have fail ed you may get relief now with Creomulsion. Chronic bronchitis can develop If your chest cold Is not treated and you cannot afford to take a chance with any medicine less potent than Creomulsion which 8oes right to the seat of the trouble help loosen and expel germ laden phlegm and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender. Inflamed bronchial mucous membranes. Creomulsion blends beechwood creosote by special process with other time tested medicines for coughs. It contains no narcotics. No matter how many medicines you have tried, tell your druggist to ell you a bottle of Creomulsion with the understanding that you are to like the way it quickly allays the cough, permitting rest and sleep, or 2 ou are to have your money back, ee that the name Creomulsion lson the bottle and you will get the genu tna product and the relief you want.

There are several general classifications of "After Dark" charmers in Reno: the "B" girl; the "shill," who sits at gam bling tables and plays for the house, and the feminine gam bling dealers, used In only a few of the lesser clubs. The "B" girl receives one half of all she drinks that is. one drink, paid for by a patron : at 25 cents, nets her 12i cents. Four dollars is a good night's earnings for her. She also may receive tips. The "shill," who gambles and gambles, Intently watching the click and whirr of the roulette wheel, but never really plays "for keeps," receive a straight wage of 50 cents an hour. The woman dealers receive $5 per eight-hour shift, for throw ing the dice or running a wheel. Checkroom girls may earn as high as $60 a week during the winter In one of the better es tablishments, but In the sum mer their earnings' are consid erably less.
