Ybrk-Preg0 agent for the warring European nation are dlplyln n etlvlty. which would do credit ;to th moit strenuous publicity promoter for any atase celebrity and om of their efforta lend an air of real humor to t great old world tragedy. ' - rT"or yeara-ServIa haa baen regarded by tha Austrian not only with hatred but; with contempt., The battle of Sa bat. In which the Auatrlart troops Buf fered a heavy defeat at the Servian' hand a, wit consequently a dreadful . blow to the beaten country's pride. Worse was to come, however. Shortly 'following the news of the battles re sult the' Hervian press agent scattered broadcast the story that a famous Austrian regimental ' band bad been captured and forced to play Servian j 1 national airs In cafes at Niah. No sooner bad thla humiliating ac I count gained publicity than, the Aus : trtan press i agent at Vienna issued u ,,; declaration that the Servians had !n i reality dressed up one or their own ' bands. In Austrian uniforms and j starched It from cafe to 'cafe In tho hops of bringing ridicule upon their Superior enemies. ,t Kvldently he cansldered, however, tHat, as usual In such rases, large num- bera of people would fail to see the denial or M ould disregard, it, so a tu rtle later he launched a-story- of his ' own. Tbe great 8ervlan povt; ,j Wukitlchlvltch, . he proclaimed, ha l been captured by the Austrian and. held a prisoner' In Vienna, had become t so impressed with the heroism of the j Austrian exploits and of the nobility , i of the national character, that he had -' been unable to, restrain himself from v '.bursting into verse In praise of ..his captors' valor. ' This tale of the Imprisoned Servian poet and the lyrics he was Inditing tot the Austrlans had hardly gained .currency before th : wild .' cry trosu from, the SsrVlan -press headquarters at j Nlsh that "there Is no Hervlan poet .'named Wukftlcnlvltch; the Austriars have simply invented him." !

In .the usual way of selling, no such low prices could possibly be had, nor could a manu facturer make such low prices if he maintained a store, for retailing expenses must always be taken care of.
