Nothing so easily lowers the social status
Of a woman whose position is already as
sured as cheap visiting card. 1t is fact
that a card enters into the social economy OF
every woman, and when a lady receives one
from a visitor, it indicates to a certain ex-
tent what degree Of refinement she has
reached Every house has its card basket,
and ladies have peculiar way of looking
over the names contained therein and max
ing comments. In truth, it is natural to do
so, for try yourself on your own card basket
and see if you do not become critical. have
had one or two cases where a caller handed
in printed card, and it came as a shock.
Such thing has long gone out of date, and
q printed card would be the height of impro-
priety. Again, if / received large card
would consider it improper. The greatest
care should be exercised by ladies in the Sc
lection of visiting cards. Only the best en-
craving in neat, simple letter press is allowed
Again a lady always puts Mrs or Miss on her
card, and it is now the proper thing for gen.
tlemen to put Mr.. on their cards. -Globe-

hood, from manhood to point in life beyond
middle age He has seen him become not
only distinguished general, but patron OF
the arts, the sciences, literature, and, above
all, idolized by the German people.
And now, when the old man totters, when
he would naturally look to one SO well fitted
to hold his subjects loyal by their love, an
insidious disease suddenly appears, which
bids fair to carry off the son before the
father. As 70 this, however, the doctors dis
agree Professor Virchow, of Berlin, an en-
inent Psychologist, and Professor Won Berg
mann, n scientist of the University Of Berlin,
have pronounced it cancer. Sir Morell
Mackenzie, n distinguished English physi-
clan, called in at the nstigation Of the crown
princess, differed in the diagnosis. This has
led to a great deal Of luminosity between the
doctors of Germany and England. The
question has been discussed in the medical
journals Of Europe, and perhaps no medical
case during the century has attracted a
greater interest among the members of the
medical profession and in all classes in civil
lied nations.
The prince has with him in attendance ut
San Reno several German physicians and
Mr.. Mark Howell DR.. Mackenzie goes now
and then from London for consultation. 1t
is said that during his recent visit, about the
middle of December last, DR.. Mackenzie was
most agreeably surprised at the improvement
in voice, and while he has at last admitted
that the trouble looks very like cancer, he has
not yet given up all hope that it is not. On
the other han1, Professor ShrStte, of Vienna,
who took part in the recent consultation,
maintains that the disease is cancer.
Thus that apparent ample provision for the
succession to the German throne is likely to
be soon reduced by the death of the heir
apparent. His son, Prince William, is said to
have suffered from childhood from the same
malady which carried OFF his grand uncle,
the late king of Prussia. This malady, it is
claimed, is suppuration of the ears, and
there is danger of the disease attacking the
brain. The next in line of succession is
Prince Williams little son, years Of age.

San Reno is picturesquely situated on
declivity sloping to the Mediterranean sea,
the site covered by dense growth OF olive
trees The streets are narrow and steep.
The place is considered by medical men to
possess great advantages of temperature for
invalids The climate is warm and dry, and
though the protecting ranges of the coast
near by are here less complete, the olive
groves afford a shelter from cold winds, and
temper them into healthful breezcs, giving
them pleasant freshness, without impartins
the lassitude experienced III too well pro
tected spots.
The crown prince occupies the Villa Livio,
situated at one end of the town, in the midst
of large garden and overlooking the sea.
Here, from the first floor, which is occupied
by the heir apparent to the throne OF tho
German empire he may look out upon the
blue waters of the Mediterranean, its skirt
ing white line of sea foam, its bosom dotted
with the sails of vessels constantly passing,
either near by or so far out that they appear
only rs reflected ray of sunlight. He has
with him his wife, the Princess Royal Vic
toria of England, and his children. 1t is
said that they are all early risers, and soon
after s o'clock Of morning in that climate,
at present like morning in June in north
ern parts of the United States, the crown
prince and princess, the princesses and Prince
Henry may be seen walking in the streets or
on the promenade. The weather during the
day is temperate, but cold after sunset, later
on becoming again milder. The king Of Italy
has placed a gunboat, or torpedo vessel, at
the disposal of the imperial sojourners in his
kingdom, in which they make excursions
either out to sea or to the points of interest
lying on the neighboring coast. This must
be gratifying to Prince Henry especially,
who is an officer in the German navy.
At his palace in Berlin, the emperor, past
90, himself gradually passing into that disso-
luton already delayed far beyond the aver
age allotted time to those who reach old age,
receives daily dispatches informing him Of his
sons condition. This son, for fifty years, he
has been accustomed to regard his successor.

AUSTRIAN FIGHTING MEN.
Men Who VIII lie Mt the Front if There
Il u European War.

~ european
In view of the strong probability Of q
European war; in which Austria will play o
leading part, it will be of interest to learn
something of the men in whose hands Aus
tria in such ease would place the command
of her armies One of her most famous and
efficient soldiers is Duke ALBRIGHT, who has
served the empire in military capacity for
more than sixty years, a fact which was not
long ago celebrated by a jubilee, Duke
Albrecht is the son Of the victor of Aspern,
and received his military education under
the supervision of his renowned father. Az
the age of II he entered the army, in which
he rose from rank to rank AS early as 1915
he was commanding general. He has taken
an important part in many engagements, as,
for instance, in the battles of Mortara and
Novasra, where his action helped gain the
victory for the Austrian arms Tho
chief victory Of his life, however, was
that of Custozza in 1866, when he signally
defeated the Italians. The reader will re-
member that Austria ut that time was COM
PEELED to fight two enemies at once, tho
Prussians in the north and the Italians in
tho south. While victorious over the latter,
Austria, owing to the incompetence OF her
generals, was vanquished by her northern
foe But not only on the battle field has
Duke Albrecht acquired renown and dis
tinction; he is also the great reorganizer
of the Austrian army, which, through his
exertions and vigilance has now reached C
state of great efficiency Duke Albrecht is
Austria's field marshal, occupying position
analogous to the one of Won Moltke in the
German army. He is also known as an
able writer on military topics.

STERNECK.


Another soldier who has taken an active
part in number Of campaigns is Freiherr
Won Beck, who, though born in Breisgau, In
Germany, has been an officer in the Aus
trian army since 1913. He, too, played
conspicuous part in the reorganization OF
the latter and is a great favorite OF en-
peror Francis Joseph. He is chief OF the
general staff Of the Austrian army.
Freiherr Won Rheinlander has won much
renown us writer on military topics, and
has also distinguished himself on the battle
field. He is said to be the soul of the general
staff
Another man of Importance is Freiherr
Won Sterneck, under whose superintendent
Austria's navy has reached state Of perfec-
ton surprising for the short time in which
it has been accomplished. 1t was Sterneck,
who, in the memorable naval battle of LISA,
vanquished the Italian fleet, and it was his
vessel that sunk the powerful Re d. Italia
