IB BAS BROUGHT ON HIDE SPREAD INVOLUNTARY IDLENESS In Spite of the Millions of Men Withdrawn From Productive Employment-- Factories in Germany Are Closing Down or Running Short Handed and the Pinch of Non-Employment is Felt Everywhere Berlin.—War has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.

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.
