When women complain of weari-
ness, loss of strength and vitality,
backache, pains in sides and hips,
dull headaches, dizziness, floating
specks, and similar ailments, they too
often accept these troubles as their
lot because they are women, when the
ailments may be the results of dis
ordered Kidneys. Mrs. Mary V. Bunk

declaration from the Government as

Responding for the Government
Chancellor OF Exchequer Bonar Law
reviewed the Irish situation at length,
saying In part:
"The Natlonalists have threatened

the ground that the Nationalist mem

"Surely there could be nothing
worse than that. The Premier has
already indicated that II there was
any hope of results from the appoint

glad to consent. but he has received

in order to prevent, II a call should
come, such confusion as attended tho
assembling OF the guardsmen for bor-
der service.
That mobilization is not imminent
Is proved by tho fact that the Gov

demoblllzing the regiments which
have just returned from the border.
1t Is pointed out that these would be
held in service II tho Government ex-
pected to need their services soon.
II is the policy Of the Administra-

Warning Factions of Italians
Stage Latest Tragedy on
Outskirts of YonkerS.

The warning factions OF Italian
gunmen who havo been fighting for

markets in Harlem's Little Italy and
In othor italian quarters OF the city
for the last few days staged their
latest murder late last night in a
lonely spot on the outskirts OF Yonk-
ers. The programme was varied this
time. and instead OF a shot from
ambush with a short barrelled shot
gun, the victim apparently was ac-
corded tho privilege OF fighting a duel
with tho man picked to slay him.
The finger prints OF the murdered
man were sent to Police Headquar-
ters here and identified as those OF
Joseph Nazarro or Joe Church OF No.
242 East Eighty-fifth street. once gun
carrier for Joseph De Marco.
A war OF determination has been
waged against the four DE Marco
brothers for years by q clique OF
gamblers and policy promoters. Joe
DE Marco was killed by an assassin
last July.
Nazarro's finger print was available
because he had been gun carrier for
Glouse Gallucci when Galluccl was
shot down in a Harlem gamblers
battle in June, 1919, and had been
arrested. The police estimate thirty
men have been slain in the feud.
The body OF the victim was left
lying across the Nepperhan Avenue
trolley tracks at the white Bridge,
and was run over by n car. Tho
motorman, John Devinus, and the
conductor, Michael Pease. believed
the man met his death when the car
ait him, .ut tho nature OF the tragedy
was revealed when passenger leav-
1 the car found two revolvers at
tie side VI the road.
Police Captain George Cougle and
several detectives hurried TO the
| scene with Coroner George Engle and
when the mans body was taken from
under the car II was found he had
been shot in the breast and In the
right shoulder. The body evidently
had been dragged from the side OF
the road to the trolley tracks.
In the soft mud OF the road were
the tracks OF an automobile and It
apparently stood there for some time
while the witnesses of the duel were
arranging details.
