very Quick-witted and resourceful. In
fact, he must be like Hamilton Foot

Ham FOotlites leaned on the rail OF
his sea-going yacht soliloquizing about
love while the blue waves rolled and
heaved splendidly, each blue wave
being super under a roll Of canvas.
But the waves were here and there
threadbare, and suddenly a wave
ripped and a head bobbed up In the

around in bewildered fashion.

Kidney Disorder
(By DIR. V. M, PIERCE.l

The most simple methods are usu-
ally the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system. The mere drinking a cup of
hot water each morning, plenty
of pure water al day, and a little
Anuric before every meal has been
found the most effective means Of
overcoming kidney trouble. Death
would occur If the kidneys did not
work day and night in separating
poisons and uric acld from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, pains, heayiness, drowsi-
ness, irritability, headaches, chiIliness,
rheumatic twinges, swollen joints or
govt.
Since IL is such a simple matter to
step into your favorfte drug store and
obtain Anuric, anyone Who earnestly
desires to regain health and new life
will waste no time in beginning this
treatment.

EMPEROR FRANCIS

RULER WHOSE DECLARATION OF
WAR ON SERBIA PLUNGED
FOURTEEN NATIONS IN WAR.
Assembled the Throne of Austria at
the Age Of Nineteen Upon Abdca-
tion of His Uncle and Had

Vienna.-Emperor Francis Joseph
is dead. The aged emperor, who had
reigned nearly sixty-eight years, was
So years OF age, and his death had
been expected tor some time.
Emperor FAancis Joseph passed away
Tuesday morning at 8 O'Clock whine
the crowds in front of Schoenbrunn
castle were talking of the triumphant
entry Of Teutonic troops into Craioya.
Charles Francis, VINO succeeds to
the throne, has been in Veienna for
some time,
Like wildfre the news spread
through the capital and the bells of all
the city churches, joining in solemn
chorus, awakened Vienna's people to
the fact that the long expected had at
last come true.
One thing was upon everyone's lips,
though few spoke it-probably the
greatest blessing to his empire was
the fact that this stanch old monarch
chung as tenaciously as he did to the
thin thread that still linked him with
life in a world in which he had been
long Cd grown.
Had his death come two years ago,
or only one, or six months, it would
have spelled disaster to the internal
cohesion of the Hapsburg monarchy.
1t is safe to say, and his people have
known it throughout these anxious
two years, that no victory ON the
battle front, no stroke of diplomacy,

done for the allied cause what Fran
els Joseph's death would have done
at any time but this.
Like the death of Pope Plus X, the
end of the venerable emperor Fran
els Joseph is charged largely against
helpless spectator, shocked at the
horror of such sudden and wide
spread clash of arms, the other the
man whose action in avenging the as
sassination of his heir engulfed four
teen nations in combat.
With Francis Joseph's death in the
midst of this great conflict there is a
remarkable climax to a long list of
tragedies in the Hapsburg family-a
list unparalleled in any other reign
ing house in Europe-including the
assassination or violent death of
seven near relatives.
The fortitude with which the en-
peror bore each blow and in later
years withstood the inroads of i'll
health himself was the wonder of the
people. Fears thai the shock Of the
assassination OF his heir, the Arc
duke Francis Ferdinand, and his con
sort while on a state visit to Bosnia
on June IS, 1914, would kill the EN-
peror were answered in characters

From the ultimatum Of July %. de-
nouncing the anti-Austrian propagan-
da and demanding prompt punishment
of the assassins of Archduke Ferdi-
nand, according to items supposedly
dictated by Francis Joseph himself,
practically dates the war now ravag-
ing Europe.
It is doubtful if in all history there
has been an active, authenticated
reign longer than that closed by the
death of Francis Joseph.
At 10 years of age he assembled the
throne of Austria, upon abdication Of
his uncle, Ferdinand /, December 2,
1848, his death ending an active
reign of sixty-eight years, all but the
first twenty of which he was also
apostolic king of Hungary.
Francis Joseph's reign was as
eventful as it was long. From his i'm
perial vantage point he saw the
French monarchy go down, the sec
ond empire rise and crumble, the COM
mune fare briefly and the republic of
today rise on it's ashes; he saw the
black pinions of the Prussian eagle
stamped on the flag of the new Ger
man empire-later 10 tower threaten
ing.y over Austria itself; he saw the
papacy shorn of its territorial de.
mesne, while about a pickering fam
lily of petty principalities was welded
into United Italy, he saw Spain, once
the greatest of colonial powers, lose
the last of her dependencies in two
oceans; he saw Japan opened to west
EN- civilization, and later defeat the
SPRAYING colossus of two continents;
he saw the most absolute despotisns
Russia, Turkey and Persia-con-
oede representation to the people; he
saw at distance the United States
cement its federation with the blood
Iof great internecine war, and he
saw his own brother prove that mon
archy could not take new root on
American soil.
In his own. country he faced internal
dissensions and external aggressions
from the moment he assembled the
throne. BY the war of 1859 with
France and Sardinia he was forced to
cede Lombardy to Italy, by force of
arms and treaty he lost the Duchy of
Holstein to Prussia and Venice to
Italy,, and by the revolt of Kossuth,
the Hungarian patriot, he barely es-
capped having his dual empire cut in
two.
But in human interest his personal
sorrows overshadowed all. One after
! another they came upon him. In 1853
the list of tragic incidents began with
an attempt upon his own life. In 1867
his brother, the Archduke Macmillan,
after three years. experiment as EN-.
peror of Mexico, was captured by the
army of the patriots and condemned
to death by a court-martia1 whose sen.
tence was executed, Notwithstanding
intercession in his behalf by the gov.
ernments of the Tilted States, England
and Prussia
There followed the burning to death
of a niece in Vienna; sister met a
similar fate in Paris and a cousin
drowned himself in Stharenberg lake;
yet these were but minor tragedies in
I comparison with that which befell the
ancient house of the Hapsburgs in
1899, whe2 Rudolf, the imperial prince
upon whom the Austrians pinned their
hopes, met death in mystery which
to this day is not cleared.

Does the food always come sweet

not, then, you need a new refrigera-

one doesn't keep the food sweet and
cool, it is worse than ineffective, it's
dangerous.
The most careful scientific study
has resulted in the modern refrigera-
tor, which is the highest interesting

matter if the refrigerator is made
