Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect It,
Women's complaints often prove to Be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or ths
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not IN q healthy con-
dltion, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased
You may suffer pain IN the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-
bic and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, By restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to b. just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions
Many send for q sample bottle to see

ASKING A LITTLE TOO MUCH
Under the Circumstances, Actor Was
Justified in Refusing Parts
Manager Allotted Him

Owing to the limitations Of his
purse the manager of a theatrical
show on the road travelled with a
short company.
One afternoon he called one OF his
players TO him and remarked:
Look here. Wellington. you'll have
10 play three parts tomorrow night in
The Silent 'FOe'-HendersOn, Uncle
Bill. and the Spider"
Cant do itI" retorted Wellington
briefly, but firmly.
Cant do it? Won't do it. you
meanI" snOrted the manager. "Why
won't you do it?'
Because it can't be done. No hu-
man being could play these three parts
at the one time In the third act Hen
dersOn and the Spider have a fight
and old Uncle Bill rushes in to sep
arate them"

Snow Widow" of Cree Indians, Aged
 90, to Take Fourth Husband
tBy International News Service.

 Stanley, E. C., Oct. 25.- Mrs. John Mckenzie. tn "Snow Widow" and idol of the Cree Indians. again is to be- come br;dee at the age of ninety. Rumor has 1t that every evening at dusk q redman makes his way to the wigwan of the "Snow Widow" He will become her fourth husband.
 Along those fabled rivers that go tumbling north of the Arctic the weird, tragic tale of the sSnow Wid- ow' is still whispered at night in the glow of the campfres. Around the adventures of the aged Indian woman members of her own tribe are ever weaving new tales. But in the records of the Hudson Bay Company, which is now closing out it's prairie lands to farm settlers. may be found the true story.
 The Crees say s'Snow Widow represents the great soul of the Far l North which can be found only among redmen and their squaws.
 Mrs. Mckenzie lost three husbands, all trappers. Two were frozen to death. The third died of starvation. It was while the latter lay dying that Mrs. McKenzie's tragic adventure took place. They were camped hun dred miles north of Stanley Mission. In the dead of winter game became so scarce that with their two babies they faced starvation. Then the husband fell ill. Only food would save him.
 With the two babies, one nursing Mrs. Mckenzie started the hundred 1. mile trip with famished dog team 1 After thirty miles the dogs died 1 1ucking the babies in the sled, she fastened the harness about her own waist and continued ten miles. Then one babe fell ill ard died. She wrap l ped blanket about the tiny body placed it deep in the snow and out of the twigs of a pine tree fashioned a pitiful little cross which was placed over the spot Then she continued the journey. On her arrival food was hurried to her husband, but he was dead She became the Snow Wid- low"

THINK DIAz WILL
 FONENT TROUBLE
Enemies of Mexican Leader Say Mis- take Was Made in Allowing Him to Leave the Country--Will Organ
 ize Junta. the Belief.
By Louis P. Kirby, international News Ser1lce Stan Correspondent.

Mexico City, Mexico, Oct. 26.--En- emies of Felix Diaz think that a mis- take was made in permitting him to sail away from Mexico to Havana, Cuba. They say that he will certainly disturb the peace of Mexico at some future time thru revolutionary con- sniracies They believe that he will hegin at once to organize junta when he reaches safe place for such operations.
 These enemies. who charge that Diex was the moving spirit in the con- Spiracy which resulted in the assassi- nation of President Francisco l. Ma dero, insist that he should have met the fate which. they say, he marked for Mader0, or that he should have been put in a Mexican prison, where he could have been kept out of mis- chiet
 The revolt of the troops at the Alto- kongo garrison when rumor reached them that Diaz had been shot was pointed to by opposers of Diaz as proof of the hold he still has upon some clements in the army and the menace he may prove to be to Mexico
 Many of the Altotongo soldiers were once in the army commanded by DiAz and they still have affection for their former general, who understood perhaps better than any other man in Mexico the art of catching the eye and commanding the admiration of ignorant peons.
 Order was not restored at Altotongo until it was explained to the soldiers that Diaz had sailed from Mexico on tho steamship La Flandre, and was at the kime of the revolt we'll on his way to Cuba.
 Those who supported the plan to get Diaz out of Mexico as quickly as possible believe that his remaining ponlarity will disappear when 1t is known among his followers that he surrendered and abandoned them, masking his surrender under the ap- pearance of capture by General San eEsex. so as to avoid possible violence at the hands of resentful members of his band who had for years made every sacrifice in support of his cause

 Terence afacSwney was 4s years of 2 ge ard was one of the most promi- nen. a-nA Feiners He started life as drase g assistant, but became a poet, author and playwright before taking up polities seriously. Later he bee. me yiolentiy anti-Eaglish. EEllc in V akeheld jail, Yorkshire. in 1916. he met MuGial Murphy. daughter of wealthy Cork distiller. who visited the jail. and shortly after they were married, despite much op- position.
 MacSwiney was elected as a Sim Feiner member from Cork to the Brit ish parliament in 1918, but never took his seat. He was present at the first session of the Irish parliament in 1919 but was later elected lord mayor of Cork-l920.
 For various political offenses he had been in jail, with brief inyerva- tions of liberty, since January, 1916. and in October, 1917, secured his re- lease from jail by hunger striking.
 The story of the self-starvation of Terence MacSwimey, Lord Mayor of Cork, probably wiii become one of the most moving chapters of the cen turies-long history of the Irish struQ- gle. No other controversy has stirred Great Britain so deeply as this since the one that centered upon Cecil Rhodes, when the Jameson raid was baked by Paul Kruger and the raid- CTS imprisoned.
 The campaign in England for Mae Swiney's release from prison has heen apart from all political and part con alterations and even che Kinp was drawn into it. The movement in MacSwiney's behalf was mainly his manitarian and enlisted tender-heart- cd people of all factions but was urv- ed by others with arguments or part ly strategy

 The petitions states that agents of the district attorney have attempted to audit books and otherwise pry into the secrets of the business. Publica- tion of such information sought by the agents, the petition alleges, would be injurious to the private interests of the coal companies.

LORD MAYOR WOl'
 BATTLE FOR DEATE
Mac Swiney Finally Succumbs {. Starvation in British Prison Pasted 73 Days; Liquid Food
 Forced On Him.

London, Oct. 25.-Terence Mae Swiney. lord mayor of Cork, died al Rrixton prison in this city at 5:te o'clock this morning. His death fol- lowed hunger strike of more than 7S days, eclipsing any in the ann4ls of the medical world.
 MacSwiney, who had been uncoM- scious for several days, did not reeov- CT his faculties before he died. Fa. ther Dominic, his private chaplain, and his brother. John MacSwiney, were with him when the end came. Father Dominic was at the prison all night and did not leave until several hours after MacSwiney breathed his last. MacSwiney and the chaplain, who had been visiting down stairs in the prison, where told by prison officials at 4:35 o'clock that they should go to the mayors bedside as they thought death was approaching. The brother asked for the privilege of communicat- ing with other relatives who were moi present, but the officials, it is said, refused him the use of telephone.
 Notify Mrs. MaeSwiney. After the prisoners death, his bro ther and the chaplain were not allowed to leave Brixton prison until 6:15 o'clock. John MacSwiney immediate ly conveyed word to the widow of the lord mayor, who was staying at the West End hotel with Mir and Mrs | L< l. executive of the Irish Self-Determin- ation league.
 Mrs. MacSwiney, accompanied by her parents and the Misses Annie and Mary MacSwiney, sisters of the lord mayor, arrived at Brixton prison at 9:30 o'clock.
 It is understood arrangements are being made to take the body to Ire land for burial
 News of MacSwiney's death had not been known in the district around Brizton prison until after o'clock ] The usual large contingent of police was on duty inside the prison grounds to prevent any demonstration but out side and along the road leading to the main highway there were no unusual signs of activity. No civilians were waiting there, as they usually did in the early days of the lord mayors hunger strike.
 Inquest Held Today.
 It is probable the inquest will be held at the prison today, after which the body will be turned over to rela- tives.
 MacSwiney was unconscious for 36 hours before his death occurred it is stated. Father Dominic, therefore, was unable to give him the last sac rement. but he administered extreme unction.
 The cause of MacSwiney's death 1 was heart failure, according to a statement issued at the home office.
 This statement is considered an in- direct answer to the criticisms of Dr.
 Josiah Oldfeld. the physician and l publicist, who had declared it was Fwron~ for the lord mayors doctors to administer meat juice and brandy He said brandy was poison and that q lman at the point of death was very
