Rhine and the Ruhr. This was
especially marked after Germany
victorious war with France In
1870. This gave her Lorraine,
whose precious iron was added to
the boundless coal of the Ruhr.
Cities sprang up like magic.
Unaffected by War
Today evenwith Germany de-
feated, Lorraine back in French
hands and world business in the
doldrums-there are few sdenes
like those to be witnessed in the

that Hugo SHINES grew p. Taa

tered his blood and colored his
hair. That's why Dr.. Herman
Brin ckmeyer, a noted German pub
licist, CALLED SHINES an animated
lump OF coal and German news
paper called him an Assyrian k1ns.
His black hair. his dead white face
his curved nose make many think
him Of Jewish blood. But he isn't.

In his carly years SHINES had

He lived plainly and simply IN MS

Berlin.
The war both gave SHINES his
opportunities and made hi well
known. SHINES had in his hands
the things a war-making nation
needs the most.
Monarchist circles became aware
OF Shines existence. He was often
called to Berlin for consultation.
He became valued adviser on ia
dustrial mobilization of German re-
sources. And what is remembered
against him most bitterly today IN
Germany, and especially in radical
circles. is that he advocated poll
cies that gave Germany such a
black name.
They say he urged the subma-
rine war to the, limit. They say he
advocated the dismantling Bel
gian mills. And finally they say he
advocated the wholesale deporta-
ton of Belgian me and women who
were carried into Germany to re-
place the labor Germany lost when
she sent her last sons to the war.

played an even larger part in Ger.

Nervous disorders are on the
increase. Men and women
compelled TO go out INTO the
world to battle for a living
quite often neglect their
health to such an extent that
a breakdown is che inevitable
result.
Such neglect is criminal: In
many Instances it leads to
fatal consequences. When
you have moody spells, feel
depressed, begin to have dis,
taste for business or social
duties, when you cannot
sleep at nlght-these are sure
signs of nervous ailments and
should be checked.
