viii Show You a Way

Get at the root OF the trouble.
Rubbing an aching back may re-
lieve it.
But won't cure it if the kidneys are
weak.
You must reach the root OF 1.-THE
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills go right at it;
Reach the cause; attack the pain.
Are recommended by many Annapo-
lis people.
Thomas Jacobs, 119 Prince George
St, Annapolis, says: ABOUT year
ago l suffered from pains across the
small of my back and the spells ware
so bad / could hardly attend to my
work. In the morning when l got up,
/ felt as II / had not slept and
was slways tired and languid ana
lacked ambition Finally I heard
of Doan's Kidney Pills and on using
them got great relief from the first.
I took three boxes in all and was
helped. l still take Doan's Kidney
Pills now when ] feel in need Of
kidney tonic and shall always re-
commend them to other kidney suffer-
ers."

LOYALTY MANIFESTED
TO FUEL ORDER
Six Car Loads Of Coal Arrive After
Being hsdetrsckod Many DAYS

The new fuel order went into ef-
feet today and it closes business
premises up tight for ten Mondays, in
Guiding today. All dry goods, hard
ware and similar stores showed their
loyalty to the Fuel Administrator
order By keeping closed, although
grocery and food stores were allowed
to remain open until II o'clock
Mr.. Walter H. Hart, the local fuel
administrator, has been busy on the
job all day He has patrolled every
street in the city where business
places are located. and he obtained
the services of two police officers to
help him to enforce the law. He also
requested the Mayor, Mr. James r.
Strange, to assist him in carrying out
the spirit and letter Of the law.
Unfortunately the authorities at
Washington ordered the closing Of all
schools throughout the nation, al
though the saloons we're allowed to
remain open, provided that they do
not use any heat They took con
certed action and were closed all day
Billy Sunday says the saloons are
like hell's they are so hot that they
do not need any heat All hotels.
restaurants, drug stores and clubs are
allowed to remain open, and likewise
doctors and dentists Offices.
The penalty for breaking and yio-
lating the law is very severe under
the fuel orders, as it fixes a fine Of
FIVE thousand dollars and one year in
Jail This is enough to make a pro-
German citizen be good and strictly
observe the law. They also have the
right to divert the fuel supply from
any unpatriotic citizen

by former fellow prisoner, VINO sees
in the girls prosperity an opportunity
for blackmsil, and VINO enlistR the aid
of gang of crooks TO carry it out.
Roslyn is an easy victim So she has
fallen in love with a wealthy young
man who would doubtless turn against
her If he knew her past. The young
man hears RUsiyn in conversation with
the leader of the gang and learns that
she consents 10 aid the crook steal the
jewels Of one OF the guests at the
house party. He wsthcss that night,

 The North German Gazette, an of- nclal organ, declared that the strike was form of war sabotage in the in. terests of peace.

 A question as to the future status Of the Socialists in the ma -ority party bloc of the Reichstag was raised by some of the critics.
