that the Russian front can no longer

Tha bitter ffaaco of drafted civilian
Belgian labor discourairea all attempts
future to drain thia small reservoir
of available man power. The Import
tiona of neutral labor are relatively
nefrltffLble. There ara no other outside
sources of man power discoverable.
Own Capital Mas. Be Vaed.
Germany must for tha balance of tha
war draw almost exclusively on its own
capital of human material and employ
it with tha utmost economy, alwaya In
first line for war purposes. The hu
man reserves necesaary for maintain
ing- tha war Industries at their present
maximum production can be obtained
only by draining; peace-time occupa

war Industrie, by recruiting; new
armies of women workers and, aa a

rVteeaera Haft la tark.
Germany haa on tha average 1.750.
000 prisoners doing useful work all
tha time. More than half are employed
tn 'agriculture, all other occupations
claiming the rest. The system is that
of tha so-called "work kommandoa,
large or small detachmenta of prison
ers, aa required, being sent out from
the main prison camps on orders from
tha prison division of the army corps
kommando in which the camps are lo
cated. The labor detachmenta of prls
onera may ba under tha command of a
landstrum man: more generally the
employer Is now held responsible for
them. Traveling military auditors.
generally Invalided ataff officers, con
stantly pay surprise visits to the work
kommandoa. check up the detaila of
prisoners. Investigate their food and
working conditions and hear com
plaints. A single army corps district
during th terming season will bava
as many as 40.000 separate working
parties of prisoners.
Prisoners are encouraged to love
work by the simple expedient of pro
viding more and better food for them
outside than inside the main prison
camps. Prisoners doing" agricultural
work receive the same increased ra
tions aa the favored self-providing
agrarians. Their lot compares favor
ably with that of the German masses
in the big cities. Food and lodging
are furnished free of charge by the
agrarian employer; the military au
thorities provide free medical treatment
and free clothing. On the other hand,
they are paid a salary of only 7 Mi cents
a day (12H cents for non-commissioned
officers who volunteer for agricultural
work).
"Exceptions Are English."
On the whole, tha agrarian ia mak
ing a handsome profit on the trn sec
tion, which In part explains agricul
ture's hunger for prisoner labor. It is
even whispered that honest German
agrarians employ prisoners when there
Is available native talent. Even at
cents a day, however, most prisoners
and thia 1 particularly true of the Rus
siansprefer the relative freedom of
farming, with its not infrequent possi
bilities of social intercourse and family
life and Its certainty of better food, to
loafing behind barbed wire. Excep
tions are mostly English. Experience
shows that prisoners do not take the
place of native peasantry, man for
man; that unless constantly watched
they have a tendency to lie down on the
Job. at which the Russian prisoners are
even better than at fighting.
Prisoner manpower In Germany's In
dustries functions more efficiently be
cause it is under constant supervision
of. not infrequently uniformed, foremen
and subject to at least semi-military
discipline aa In the case of most Ger
man industrial workera. For these, too,
there is much greater financial stimulus
han In the case of prisoner farm handa
Prisoners engaged in industries, busi
nesses, trades and all other occupa
tions than farming must be paid the
same wage scale holding good for free
German labor. Tet in the majority, of
cases the productive efficiency of this
class of prisoner labor, too. is below
that of free labor; to which must be
dded aa a negative factor the occa
sional practice of sabotaging. Never
theless, the short-handed German In
dustries have an Insatiable appetite for
prisoner labor which the army in the
present state of the war cannot begin
to supply in the numbers required. As
pour-le-merlted General once said to
me on the east front: "Those good days
have gone by when we never thought
of taking less than 100.000 Russian pris

A CAMPAIGN TO MAKE OUR

STRONG AND EFFICIENT
Evidence Here Presented Shows That Many Physical Dis
abilities Could Be Prevented by Keeping the Blood
Built Up and the Nerves Fully Nourished
Drafting Belgian, a Failure.
The large scale experiment of draft-
ng Belgian civilians to Germany
proved a complete failure, even from
the production point of view; a source
of infinite labor troubles to employer
nd dangers to plants, with a minimum
yield of productive work. The bulk of
the Belgian evacuee have unostenta
tiously been shipped her, and it is ex
tremely douDtrui whether there are
more than 30.000 civilian Belgians still
working in German industries today.
A factor of real importance, however,
the Polish manpower in Germany.
The number of Polish workers undoubt-
dly amounts to several hundred thou
sands. Their status is somewhere be-
ween that of German war industry
workers and prisoners of war. Their
freedom of movement Is closely circum
scribed. They cannot go borne to Po
land without a military pass, of course.
hich is rarely given today, even to
neutrals, much less to useful Polish
aborers. They are under military su
pervision; they cannot quit work, ex
cept for medical reasons, nor change
mployment without the express per
mission of the authorities.
Large Wagee Offered Neutrals
Lured by th large wages paid to
skilled labor In Germany today, there

terly increasing in particular from ren

glum also represented, but as yet neu

sufficient volume to be an important
factor in supplying Germany's stripped

the small number of laborers supplied
by Germany's allies.

Many of the physical disabilities that
were revealed by the medical examina
tions made under the army draft law
could have been avoided carelessness
in neaiin matters naa oecu wrreticu,
if thin blood had been built up to re
store weakened muscles and revitalize
wasted nerves.
Everyone cannot have perfect health
but unless you have an organic disease
it is generally possible to improve your
physical condition by attention to the
rules of health, the first of which Is to
keep the blood built up. So great Is
the necessity of keeping the blood rich
and red. that it Is also of the greatest
Importance that we know how to recog
nise the thinning of the blood which
leads to dangers of many kinds;
Far Weak. IVervona Children.
Close confinement in school during
the past Winter, overstudy perhaps, an
attack of tha grip or tonsllitis. some
one of these things Is doubtless re
sponsible for the condition of the child
who shows a decline in health now
What are the symptoms? Pallor and
languor, a fickle appetite, dark rings
under the eyes, bronchial colds. Very
often the best efforts of the family
physician fail in such cases and the
condition of the child causes the most
Intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil, so often
prescribed, generally falls because the
weak stomach la unable to digest fata.
Try this treatment. Before break
fasc each morning give the child the
juice of half an orange. After the noon
meal give one of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. Keep this np for a few days
then give one of the pills after the
evening meal also. Weigh the child
before beginning the treatment and
again after two weeks. An increase in
weight of from two to five pounds will
show you that you are on the right
track at lant.
St. Vitus' dance is a disease easier
to prevent than to cure. Nervous chil
dren should therefore be carefully
watched for symptoms of the approach
of this disorder.
In the early stages a good tonic for
the blood and nerves will go far toward
preventing the development of the dis
ease. But the tonic must be free from
alcohol and opiates for these make the
nervous condition much worse. When
your child appeara listless, prefers to
ait and read rather than go out and
play and requires altogether too much
time to get his or her lessons, give a
course of treatment with Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
After Effects f the Grip.
The danger from grip Is seldom over
when the characteristic symptoms, the
fever, the catarrh, the headache and
the depression of spirits pass away.
The grip leaves behind it weakened
vital powers, thin blood, impaired di
gestion and over-sensitive nerves a
condition that makes the system an
easy prey to pneumonia, bronchitis,
rheumatism, nervous prostration and
even consumption.
Such a condition is described by Mrs.
Jennie Cruikshank, of No. 517 North
Barclay street, Waterloo, Iowa. She
says:
"The grip left me without any vital
ity whatever. I was weak, had no am
bition and waa generally run-down. I
had no color at all and was wasted
away to a mere shadow of my former
self. I waa reduced in weight from
135 to 104 pounds. My Hps were pur
ple. I had severe pains over my eyes
and in my left side. My appetite was
poor and I was frequently confined to
bed for two or three days or more.
I was treated by doctors but re
ceived little benefit. They said that
my blood was impoverished and my
friends thought I was going into con
sumption. I had been sick for six
years when I finally decided to try Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. I- found them
to be a good blood builder and after
thorough trial I regained my normal
weight and health. It gives me great
pleasure to recommend Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills."
A Toaie For the Nerves.
There Is no tonic for the nerves that
is not a tonic for every other part of
the body. There is no form of debility
that does not rob the nerves of nour
isftment. The remedy therefore for
nervous breakdown is a tonic that will
build up the general health, revitalize
the blood and enable it to carry to the
nerves the elements that they need.
Read the experience of Mrs. Fred A.
Hampson, of Pleasantvllle, Ohio. She
says:
For two years I suffered from nerv
ous debility. I was treated by a physl
cian but did not get as strong as I
thought I should, had no ambition, lost
tn flesh and was very weak. I had
no appetite, my complexion was sal
low and I was irritable and miserable
all the time. I had severe pains in the
back of my neck, like something press
ing against it, and when these attacks
came on I would have to lie down. A
neighbor urged me to try Dr. "Williams'
Pink Pills and I did so.
"I experienced relief after taking the
first box and tok about six boxes in
all. I ara now enjoying the best of
health. I never have a headache now
nor any nervous spells."
Caused by Lack of Blood.
The symptoms described in the fol
lowing statement are so common to
day that the means by which relief was
secured deserve the careful attention
of every thoughtful man and woman.
Mrs. B. O. Goodwin, of No. 391 Elm
street, Gardner, Mass waa suffering
with anemia lack of blood. She says:
"I lost color and strength and be
came so weak that my husBand had to
help me around. Very often I would
get dizzy and seem to aee floating
specks before my eyes. I would waka
up through the night and be so numb,
all over that it seemed my blood would
never start circulating, again. My
hands and feet would actually pain
when the circulation began. This
numbness would last for an hour. My
digestion was poor and I couldn't
breathe well.
"My doctor treated me for anemia
but I finally stopped taking his medi
cine. I heard of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills and felt some better after I had
taken them only a short time. I grad
ually grew better and got so that I
didn't need medicine any mere. My
health is good now and I have had no
aerious sickness since. 1 gained ia
weight also.",
Let Dr. W illiams' Pink Pllla Guard
Your Home.
Pure blood is the force that guards
the body against the disease germs
that are in the air we breathe, in the
food we eat, in the water we drink.
There is a constant battle between
these disease germs and the red cor
puscles that swarm in healthy blood.
That is why so many people exposed
to disease do not contract it. Those
whose blood is weak and therefor
lacking in defensive power are most
liable to infection. Everybody may
observe that healthy red-blooded peo
ple are less liable to attacks of cold
and the grip than are pale bloodless
people.
To build up the blood thre is on
remedy that has been a household
word for a generation, Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People. They tone
up the entire system, make the blood
rich and red, strengthen the nerves,
increase the appetite, put color in the
cheeks and lips and drive away that
unnatural tired feeling. Plenty of sun
light, good wholesome food and f resit
air will do the rest.
No Increase In Price.
There has been no increase in the
price of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They
are sold by your own druggist or will
be sent direct by mail, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six
boxes for 12.50, by the Dr. William
