Parisian Shirts Printed with Koran Verses for Turkish Soldiers

A PARISIAN manufacturer has received an order from Turkey for a large number of white shirts, upon which extracts from the Koran are to be printed in sky blue letters. Upon a number of white woolen undershirts is to be stamped the signature of Mohammed. The articles are intended for distribution to Turkish soldiers when upon especially dangerous duty, to stimulate their courage under the impression that they are talismans.
