SPREAD INVOLUNTARY IDLENESS
In Spite of the Millions of Men Withdrawn From Productive
Employment-- Factories in Germany Are Closing Down or
Running Short Handed and the Pinch of Non-Employment
is Felt Everywhere
Berlin.—War has brought in Ha
trntn widespread Involuntary Idleness
in spite of the millions of men with
drawn from productive employment.
Factories are closing down or running
short handed and' the pinch of non
employment is felt everywhere among
the working classes.
Numbers of workingmen are ap
pearing on the streets as newsboys or
seeking other unusual employment.
The largest labor union In the Berlin
district, that of the metal workers,
with 88,000 members, reports 11,000
unemployed, although some 16,000
members are with the troops In the
field. Of the 52,000 members of th<’
truckmen and transport workers'
union, one-tenth are idle. The wood

cutters’ union reports 11,000 of Its
27,000 members out of work. Of some
7,000 unorganized woodworkers large
ly employed in the piano industry only
140 are at Wbrk.
Opposite Direction.
Some trades, however, are affected
in the opposite direction. Bakers and
butchers are being advertised for, so
many having been called Into field ser
vice with the troops that for a time
Interruptions in the city’s supply of
bread and meat were feared. Brew
ers are also in demand, the breweries
being in full operation to supply the
increased demand from the cases and
restaurants where the public gathers
to await the war news; and saddlers,
tailors and carpenters are working
overtime to supply the needs of the
army.
War bulletins furnish scant reading
for anxious German eyes. The army
leuders can announce the occupation
of Brussels or I.iege in seven words
atjd the route of eight French army
corps in ninety, but day after day the
Official Gazette rolls out its long lists
of killed, wounded and missing at the
rate now of nearly a thousand a day.
Names by Columns,
The names march by in long col
umns, arrnyed with military precision
by regiments and companies, batteries
or squadrons—first the infantry und
then cavalry, artillery ami train. A
feature is the large proportion running
monotonously name after name "miss
ing" or "wounded and missing" Is I
mute testimony of scouting patrols
which did not return, or of regiments
compelled to retire and leave behind
them dead, wounded and prisoners, or
of men wandering so far from their
comrades in the confusion of hatt'e
that they could not find and rejoin
their companies for day*.
An attempt Is made with the wound
ed to give the nature and location of
the wounds. These are as yet from j
principally shrapnel fire.
Only one death from sickness has
been reported.
War Watts.
The waste of war has opened room
for the volunteers. Of the 1.200,000
who volunteered In the early days of
war a large proportion had to be
turned away because there was no
room for them In the existing organi
zations Now the depot organization*
of tlie various regiment* are calling for
these men to fill the gaps in the ranks
The bodies of the dead are not, with
occasional exceptions, returned to thelf
relatives but are burled on the field
The great number of prisoners of
war taken by the Germans alreadf
constitute a problem for the home au
thorities. They are being quartered
In concentration enmps usually locat“d
upon the maneuver grounds of the
various army corps and being put to
work upon the roads.
Great concern is expressed In press
and public utterances lest the prison
ers receive anything in the line of fa
vored ikeatment. Newspapers have
conducted an angry campaign against
Sick.
Woman
Qtf&rUicm
Is it possible there is a woman in this country who con
tinues to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound a trial after all the evidence that is con
tinually being published, which proves beyond contradic
tion that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffer
ing among women than any other one medicine in the world ?
We have published in the newspapers of the United States
more genuine testimonial letters than have ever been pub
lished in the interest of any other medicine for women—
and every year we publish many new testimonials, all gen
uine and true. Here are three never before published:
From Mrs. 5. T. Richmond, Providence, R. I.
Providence, R. I.—“ For the benefit of women who suffer as I hare
done I wish to state what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
has done tor rue. I did some heavy lifting and the doctor said it
caused a displacement. I have always lieen weak and I overworked
after my baby was born and inflammation set in, then nervous pros
tration from which I did not recover until I bad taken Lydia E fink
ham s \ egetable Compound. The Compound is my best friend and
when I hear of a woman with troubles like mine I try to induce her
to take your medicine ”-Mrs. S. T. Richmond, 199 Waldo Street,
lTovideuce, R. I.
