AS her successor, Emperor Francis

On October 10 last the archduchess
was installed with solemn ceremonial
of the usual kind. The emperor was
represented by her father, Archduke
Karl Ludwig, who ofliciated, assisted
by Count Thun and Count Boncquci, as
court commissioners of the viceroy OF
Bohemia. The exercises were elaborate
and impressive, and in them partici-

Many complain that they cannot
drink milk without its disagreeing with
them. The most common reason why
milk is not readily digested is that it
is taken too rapidly and it enters the
stomach and becomes one solid mass
difficult of digestion. If it is slipped it
is so divided on reaching the stomach
that when coagulated, as it must be by
the gastric juice while digestion is 60
ing on, instead of being in one hard
mass it is more in the form of sponge
and in and out of the entir. bulk the
gastric juice can perform it's duties.

SPRING MILLINERY.
New Ideas in Hats and Bonnets Are Al.
ready Appearing.

Spring millinery is always a topic
of absorbing interest, and the first ad-
varced models are to be seen. These
indicate 10 lessening in the frills, fuss
and fricolity which have been charac-
teristics of the stylish headgear lately,
though it is possible that as the season
grows older this tendency may be
modified. Vast quantities of flowers,
particularly wild flowers, will be used,
and the omntpresent aigrette will lose
nothing OF its present charm. The
models now shown are all elaborate,
more or less, and large, coming we7l
over the face. This importation has
high crown of butter-colored cloth and
brim OF white tulle ruflles, standing
erect and edged with black lace. At
the base IF the crov is a band of
tlock velvet, and o"r side is finished
with black ostrio h tip, large
aigrette OF black and white, and a
white tulle rosette.
Under the b1im is a perfect wilder.
ness OF Howers-violets, pink roses,
holly AMI gardena.
a sailor hat of heiotrope straw has
a medium high crown, with ii wreath
of pink roses about the brim, covered
with heiiotrope tuIle. On euch side.
but more toward the back than the
front, is y bunch of violets and leaves.
while across the back is Il big Alsatia.i
bow of heIiotrope tafeta rihrcn,
caught with bTiilan, buckles. Under
the brim are couple OF lunches of
pink roses. The combination is rather
daring, but shows thy tendency of the
hour to what might be called exceed
ing liberality in color. Another bit OF
similar daring is n little toque of VIC.
lets with dark red and yellow roses
sunk in the vioIcts, and pink and red
roses on one side, a high violet aigrette

No medical aid was lacking. His serv-
