Transcriber's Notes:
The following changes have been made to the text:
- In the table introduced as "Street traders and street employees may be
classified by occupation as follows:--" Newspaper sellers was written
as one word once.
- In the table detailing the occupation of children in Germany,
introduced as "Seven divisions of these children were made
according to occupation ..." the word Austragedienste was wrongly
hyphenated.
- In the TABLE E. HOURS AND EARNINGS OF STREET WORKERS a header
"OCCUPATIONS" was missing (compared to TABLE D before), and was added.
