“Wireless Eye” Inventor To Be j
Tried Shortly.
Oakland, Cal., Aug. 22—Sam
uel Spitz, who invented the
1 Wireless Eye,” will be tried
shortly on a charge of obtaining
' money by false pretenses. Spitz
'said the “wireless eye” worked
'on the principal of the wireless
telegraph.
It would be of immense value
to military and naval command
ers, according to the inventor,
1 in guarding against surprise at
tacks. Many people thought it
would revolutionize warfare.
Spitz was authority for the
statement, which may or may
not have been true, that the
government was going to buy
the invention.
A WOMAN S BACK
The Advice Of This Newport
Woman Is Of Certain Value.
Many a woman’s back has
many aches and pains.
Ofttimes ’tis the kidney’s
fault.
That’s why Doan’s Kidney
Pills are so effective.
Many Newport women know
this.
Read what one ha3 to say
about it:
Mrs. A. Bell, 502 Newport
Avenue, Newport, says: “I was
suffering from sharp, shooting
pains through my back. The
pains came on when I -was sit
ting down and I couldn’t move
until they passed off. I had
rheumatic twinges in my limbs,
especially during bad weather.
Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured
at Walker’s Pharmacy, removed
every symptom of kidney trou
ble.”
Price 50c at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy
—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the
same that Mrs. Bel^ had. Foster
