If these respectable gentlemen were asked how they could reconcile such complicity with their consciences, they would probably answer in terms of abstract ethics. They would probably argue that it is no more sinful to bet on a horse with a pool-room keeper fifty feet outside the race-track inclosure than it fs to bet with a bookmaker fifty feet inside the inclosure. This argument could be met by the re- joinder that we are not-dealing with ethics but with law, rate of living here, But, with the single exception of high rents, New York is a fairly cheap place to lve tn Fo0 products are cheaper here than In most of the other Inree cities of the United States, and clothes, Judged by American standards, aro comparatively Inexpensive. * ne papers have been filled recentiy | % with detailed tr of a real-eatate| ® man with an Income of about $100 a week who maintained two wives an two families of children in comfort on | @ this sum.
