Kidney Pills have been Of great bene-
fit to me and in fact, ! attribute four
teen years of my life to them. 1t was
In 1902 that was suffering a great

turn Of the trouble and didn't lose

They again gave me the same good re-
suits and consider them wonderful

endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. Ifyour

MUST BE CAREFULLY GUARDED

Washington, July 2-That German
intrigues against property and sta
tons of the United States Navy in this
country must still be cafefully guard
ed against Is shown by case which
is now before the Department of JUS
tice, says a statement Issued here to-
day at Navy League headquarters.
In a southern city with a population
of about 10000 people, says this state
ment, there is a colony of German sub
jects who recently petitioned the Gov
eminent, through the Department of
Justice, to waive certain Of the re-
strictions placed upon them as to their
residence in fixed zones.
These restrictions prevent alien enc
mics from living or going within GER
tain distance of any Naval Station or
ship.
The petition from the Germans of
the southern city. mentioned above,
was so phrased on its face that it ap-
peared to be an entirely harmless re-
quest. Federal officials In the South
were inclined TO grant it. The petit
ton was, however, referred to Wash
ington. An investigation proved that
there was on foot scheme to place
certain German agents close to the
Navy Yard where considerable mis-
chief might then be done. 1t has now
been decided that, not only with the
areas from which these Germans are
barred not be limited or reduced. but
that increased surveillance over ev-
cry movement will be maintained.
The belief is expressed here that had
this request been granted, it was the
intention Of alien enemies in other
cities to make a similar request, and
that in the end serious harm might
have resulted.
