Boston, aJnuary 15 - (UP) - With one man dead. another be- lieved dying, and a third suffering from severe wounds, mystery to- day clouded Boston's second major outbreak of gang warfare in less than a month.
 A man tentatively identified as Harry Davis, alias Harry Brown, of Everett, last night was found dead in the front seat of his ex- pensive sedan, parked without lights on Curtis street in East Bos- ton, near the Winthrop town line. He had been shot in the head. evidently by someone seated in the tonneau.
 Albert Feori, alias Arthur Vel lucci, 2S, giving his adderss as 311 East 11th street, New York city, was reported dying at Massachu- setts General hospital this morn ing. Shot In the right lung and in the right arm, he was taken to the hospital last night by two men who said the wounded man had crawled into their automobile near North station. Feori said he had no idea as to the identity of his assailant.
 Also at Massac chusetts General hospital was Jack Berger, 32, of Belmont and Chelsea, who was shot in the stomach and thrown from an automobile on Sunset street, Winthrop. Doctors be- lleved he would recover.

Piles Go Quick
Without saives or Cutting

Thousands of sufferers from itching. bleeding or protruding piles have learned that quick and permanent relief can only be ac- complished with an internal medi- cine. Neither salvcs nor cutting re- move the cause.
 Bad circulation of the blood in the lower bowel causes piles. The veins are nabby. the bowel walls wcak-thc parts almost dead. To end Piles m internal medicine must be used to stimulate the cir- culation. heal and restore the af- fectcd parts.
 Dr ]. $. Leonhardt was the first to discover n real Internal Pile remedy. He called his prescription HEM -HOID, and prescribed it for 900 patients with the marvellous record of success in 060 cases, and then decided every Pile sufferer should be able Co get HEM -ROID tablets from their own druggist with a rigid money bnek guar nntee.
 Dr Leonhardt's HEM-ROID has an almost unbelievable record of success right in this city. So why waste time on external treatments or worry about an operation when Apothscarios Hall Co invites every fiie sufferor t0 try HEM-ItOID with guarantee of mOney-back if it does not end their Piles. no mat. fer how stubborn the casef
