FROM PRISON
'. TO HEAD NEW
SARAJEVO, Aug. 5 (Correspon
dence of Associated'Press).—One of
the men who were arrested by Aus
trian authorities after the assassina
tion of Archduke Ferdinand, in 1914,
is now president of the provincial
government of Bosnia-Herzegovina
and is recognized as one of the lead
ers in the new kingdom of Jugo
slavia. He is Atanasije Shola. He
was kept in prison at hard labor
during the war.
Today, in his office in what was
formerly part of an Austrian palace,
Mr. Shola described his years in
prison and subsequent rise to power.
He is a Herzegovinan, 42 years old ad
considered to be a man of exceptional
ability.
“One hundred and forty-six of us
were placed under arrest in July,
1914.” he said. “There was no proof
♦ that I was in sympathy with the Jugo
slav propaganda, but the authorities
suspected what was in my heart.
Sixteen of the men arrested at that
time were condemned to death. The
death penalties were not executed,
because of the remonstrance by the
king of Spain, but the prison sen
tences were all made effective.
“I went to prison on July 26, 1914.
My cell was a small one—a mere
cage—and 1 was kept at hard labor.
In October of 1918, the people of
Bosnia-Herzegovina, as in other Jugo
L Slav provinces of the Austrian em
pire. anticipated the debacle of the
empire, and organized a national
council for the conduct of affairs.
As soon as the Austrian army fled
this council came into full executive
power and the men wrongly impris
oned were liberated. I was released
from prison on November 1. 1918, and
almost immediately was chosen by
the national council as president of
the government of Bosnia-Herzego
vina.”
He said the people generally were
in sympathy with the central Jugo
slav government at Belgrade.
SECRETARY HOUSTON
WARNS AGAINST QUACKS
-*- V
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Four hundred and
fifty seizures of so-called remedies for
# social diseases have been made re
cently under the food and drug act
by federal officials who have inaugur
ated a campaign to suppress this va
riety of “quack” medicine. In mak
ing this announcement the bureau of
chemistry of the department of ag
riculture issued a general warning
that use of such “remedies” was ex
$ tremely dangerous and likely to lead
to a long period of suffering.
“The goods seized include a great
variety of compounds,” said the bu
reau’s announcement. “Some of the
labels bear the claim of the manu
facturer that the contents are sure
cures. Some even contain statements
that cures will be effected within defi
nite periods.
“In all the seizure actions the gov
ernment alleged the preparations to
be falsely and fraudulently labeled.
Such preparations are sold largely be
cause of plausible but false claims
regarding their curative effect. Many
sufferers are led to believe that cures
will be effected by these prepara
tions, and adequate treatment under
competent medical supervision is
I neglected until permanent injury to
health and even danger to life has
resulted.”
PROHIBITION CHEAPENS
'* COST OF RYE FLOUR
CHICAGO, Aug. 28 (by mail).—To
a considerable extent, feeding the
eyes instead of the stomach is re
sponsible for the high cost of living,
according to authorities here in the
milling and grain trade. They cite
the fact that rye flour is $2.55 a bar
rel cheaper than white flour although,
except for looks, the rye flour is
equally g;ood or better as food.
Unusual cheapness of rye flour at
this time is ascribed to two causes—
the stoppage of whiskey distilling
and the substitution of white bread
for rye bread by thousands of work
ingmen, who, until the era of high
, wages, used rye bread as a rule.
It is said also by the milling ex
' perts that so far as known here the
United States government is pur
chasing only white flour for shipment
to Europe, notwithstanding that the
bulk of the population across the
Atlantic is far more accustomed to
rye bread than white.

SCOUT TROOP OWNS BALLOON,
Parker E. Francis, a scoutmaster of
Kansas City, Mo., has what is believed
to be the only balloon troop in the
country.
Mr. Francis has been engaged in the
manufacture of hydrogen gas for use
in aeronautics and has instructed his
troop in many of the peace and war
time uses of this gas. He has given
them the balloon. Recently the troop
took it through Kansas City streets
to advertise an army event. This bal
loon had been used during the war as
a part of the anti-aircraft defenses oi
the city of Paris, and had actually en
tangled several German planes in its
steel network.

lurk all about us—in the air, on
our clothes. We know that
clothes that merely look clean
may be highly impure. To be
truly clean, clothes must be ster
ilized.
That is but one of the many
reasons why our laundry service
should appeal to you. When you
send them to us your bed linen,
garments and household things
are more than washed—they are
purified.
We are able to do this be
cause we change from nine to
twelve times the waters in
which we wash your clothes.
Dr. H. G. Ellidge of the Mil Ion Institute of Industrial Re
search, who has investigated laundry methods, says:
“There is absolutely no chance for disease being
spread through a Modern Steam laundry.”
Can you be sure of this
cleanliness and sterilization
when you intrust your clothes
to unknown persons whose
methods are dubious—or even
to the home methods?
Jones Once too often you will
take the chance—and will it
have paid you ? Safeguard the
health of your family. Have
your work done under the su
pervision of one who has had
fifteen years’ experience.
