AUSTRIAN RULER
Manifesto of Francis Joseph
Was Torch Which Broke
Peace of Continent.

Vienna, Austria, Aug. 1s.-The great
and cruel war that now bids fair to
devastate and lmpOverish all Europe
was directly though not primarily,
caused by Austria-HunEary' declara-
tion Of war against Servia- SlavOnic
Russia came to the aid Of the Slavs Of
Servia and Germany took her place be-
side Austria. This brought about
clash Of the triple alliance and the
triple entente and France and England
were drawn In.
The real last straw Of the great
conflict, therefore that broke the cam
els back" OF the peace Of Europe, was
the manifesto OK the aged emperor,
Francis Joseph, Of Austria-Hungary
For the first time, this edict is here
with given in full, as the ruler OF the
dual monarchy wrote it.
Dear Count Stuergkh: I have re-
solved TO instruct the ministers OF my
household and foreign affairs 10 notify

ginning Of a state Of war between the
monarchy and SerFia- In this fateful
hour feel the need OF turning to my

Manifesto
ITO Ny Peoples: 1t was my fervent
wish to cOnsecrare the years, which, by
the grace of God, still remain to me,
TO the word Of peace and to protect my
peoples from the heavy sacrifices and
burdens of war Providence, In its
wisdom, has otherwise decreed- The
intrigue Of a malevolent opponent com
pei me, in the defence Of the honor Of
my monarchy, for the protection Of its
dignity, and its position as power for
the security OF its possessions, TO grasp
the sword. after long years Of peace.
With q quickly forgetful ingrautude,
the kingdom Of Servia, which, from the
first beginnings Of its independence as
state until quite recently, had been
supported and assisted by my ances-
tors has for years trodden the path OF
open hostility to Austria-Hungary.

Halt Had to BE Called.
"a halt must be called to these in
tolerable proceedings, and an end must
be put to the incessant provocatiOns
of Servia- The honor and dignity OF
my monarchy must be preserved unim-
paired. and its political, economic and
military development must be guarded
from these continual shocks.
In vain did my government make an
attempt TO accomplish this object by
peaceful means and TO induce Servia,
by means Of a serious warning, 10 de-
sist. Servia has rejected the just and
moderate demands OF my government
and refused TO conform to those Obliga-

natural and necessary foundations Of
peace in the life Of peoples and states.

arms to secure those Indispensable

sciOus Of the whole significance Of my
resolve and my responsibility before
the Almighty have examined and
weighed everything, and. with a Sc
rene conscience, 1 set out on the path
TO which my duty points. I trust in
my peoples, who, throughout every
and loyalty round my throne. and have
always been prepared for the severest
sacrifice for the honor. the greatness.
and the might Of the fatherland. I
trust in the Almighty TO give the vic
tory to my arms"

TO PR0L0NG LIFE OF PLANTS
Necessity for Those Kept for
Indoor Adornment.

Many persons are unsuccessful with
house plants because they do not give
them enough fresh air. The atmos
phere of the ordinary living room is
both too dry and too warm for the av-
erage ported plant, and the room il
usually kept so tightly closed during
the cold months that the air is seldom
pure.
Plants of all sorts, whether they are
raised indoors or outside, must have
an abundance of fresh air. Two or
three times day open some Of the
windows and allow new air to enter
the room. Lower one or two windows
an inch or more every day when the
outside temperature is not very low.
On all mild days in winter throw open
all of the doors and windows. You
will be surprised at the difference it
will make in the vigor, color and
growth of the plants when they do
have all the good air they need. Good
air, good light, good soil and plenty Of
moisture are the living requirements
of all plants.
Keep a box Of rich earth in the
house for reporting plants during the
winter. Fresh earth added is always
beneficial to plant life. When pre-
pairing, heat the earth to kill worms.
If you want sturdy house plants give
them plant food. Ammoniated bone
meal is a good fertilizer for house
plants. Beware Of the fancy iardi-
Mere. 1t Is responsible for many de-
cayed roots. All plants with shiny
surfaces can be washed with soapsuds
containing little olive oil.
Instead of carrying potted ferns
through winter after winter, so that
they get worn out, give them an oc-
casional rest. Cut them down close
and you will be surprised to see how
they will reward you in the spring by
leafing out with renewed vigor.
To keep a rubber plant in condition,
it must have plenty of earth, plenty Of
water and a shower bath once week.
When it has dried, after the bath, wipe
the leaves and sponge them with milk.
If your palm is infested with scales,
wash the leaves in weak solution Of
soapsuds. After several washings, at
intervals of few days apart, you will
find that the scales will disappear, the
palm will look fresh and green, and
make a new growth. An occasional
bath of this sort will keep it in fine
condition.

ONE TRUST BILL
TO COVER ALL
Decision Reached BY Senate
Subcommittee.
MUST EXPEDITE BUSINESS
Revised Interstate Trade Commission
Bill Introduced In House-Senate
Measure Creating a Commits
sion With Broader Powers.

Washington, d. Con trust regula-
ton bill, instead Of several, as origin
ally proposed, has been determined
upon by the Senate subcommittee on
Interstate Commerce as the policy the
administration should adopt in perfect
ing proposed legislation to supplement
the Sherman law. This announcement
was made after the introduction in the
House of the revised bill to create an
Interstate Trade Commission.
Although the new House bill has
the approval of President Wilson and
AttorneyGeneral McReynolds, men,
bers of the Senate Committee on Inter-
state Commerce did not hesitate to
assert that they had completed
measure to create trade commission
with broader powers, and that they
would urge the acceptance of the prin-
ciples of their bill in any legislation
to provide for trade commission.
The Senate bill, it was stated, would
empower the proposed commission to
institute Investigations on its own
initiative as to whether corporations
operate in violation of the Sherman
act, and its champions declare that
elimination of the initiative in the
House bill would rob the proposed
commission of effectiveness.
"A trade commission which could
undertake no investigation except by
direction of the President, Attorney
General or either house of Congress,
as the House bill proposes, will be of
little value" said Senator Robinson,
of Arkansas, member of the Inter
state Commerce Committee. "If the
proposed commission is to have no
more authority than that, why have
one? The bureau of corporations as
now constituted is capable of carrying
on such Investigations very we'll"
1t is considered probable that no
report on the Senate bill will be made,
because of the practical decision to
incorporate all contemplated trust leg
islation in one measure Besides pro-
yiding for the trade commission, the
prevalent idea at this time in the Sem
ate committee is to add a section to
prohibit certain forms of interlocking
directories, and one to prohibit or
regulate holding companies. Bills
originally proposed to define acts
which would constitute restraints Of
trade and destructive competition
practically have been abandoned.

REALLY A FORM OF SANDAL
Lace Top Shoes Highly Desirable Ac-

of a Different Shade.

Lace top shoes sound alluring, don't
they? They are really high shoes, cut
in every way like ordinary dress shoes
but the vamp is of colored satin,
the top of linen lace, fitting as snugly
as a gaiter.
One pair, particularly pretty, showed
top and heel of cloth of gold, with top
of Plauen lace. Sometimes colored
satin and lace colored to match is
seen, a combination that, shows up
well when stockings. of different
shade are worn beneath. One pair, a
little more extreme than the others,
has merely the toe part of satin-the

show through the meshes of the lace.
