BERLIN, November S.--The German
army is very human institution Just
now. The iron discipline OF the bar
racks and the caste spirit which
divides the officer from the rank and
mic are not SO much In evidence
In one OF tho better restaurants of
Berlin sat two officers OF the line. Tho
worn look of the field gray uniform of
one showed that he had seen service.
That the other had been at the front
was made clear by bandage over
his head.
Following an animated recital tho
officer in the worn uniform picked UP a
bundle which had lain beside him on
the table and proceeded TO unwrap six
mouthorgans.

valcsccnt companion. life In the

ONE INDUSTRY. BENEFITS
Arsenic Work Mt Brintor Ono of Two
Such Piauts In America.

There is ono Virginia industry that
will benefit ny the European war. II
Is located at B-inton. and Is one of
the two places in America wht.rc works
for the exclusive production OF arsenic
have been erected. II is difficult for
these plants to produce arsenic to be
sold in competition with the by
products OF tho smcltcrs. except In
periods of high prices. such as will
prevail If tho war and it's industrial
disturbances arc long continued.
The consumption OF white arsenic in
the United states last year amounted
to 1900 tons, valued at $4,000. OF
which o,alS tons. valued at s159.:$6.
was produced as . hy-product from
copper and precious motaI smelters.
The balance came from the works at
Drinton and another plant at Mineral.

For tho present. imports of arsenic
arc seriously diminished by the war.

save more than heretofore, for the
