Archduchesses Said To Use Woman'y

band.

band.
Vienna, Jan. 30, 1916 Women high
in the nobility of Austria are contest
ing the influence of Empress Zita over
her husband, the new Emperor
Charles, and are reported to be using
their beauty and charm to win his
favor.
Emperor Charles has taken kindly
to the influence of his young empress
and she has infused greater degree
of manliness and forcciulness in him.
That is said to have made for even
a greater dislike of the empress among
the Hapsburg noblewomen. Her
mother-in-law, Archduchess Marie
Josepha has a further ill feeling
against Empress Zita, through her be-
lief that this marriage has been en-
gineered by woman she dislikes-
Archduchess Marie Theresa, sister
of the Duke of BraganZa and widow
ed stepmother of the new emperor.
Archduchess Marie Theresa had
more influence with and did more for
the late Francis Joseph than the Arch
duchess Maria Josepha. the emperors s
cousin by marriage. Marie Theresa
was the first woman of the land, and
this piqued Maria JOseplla.
Empress Zita was in an unpleasant
position for the first three years after
her marriage into the Hapsburg fam
lily, but disregards snubs and lives
quietly and happily with her husband.
Archduchess Valerie, the former
emperor's favored daughter, has lost
the favor of the throne through his
death and has cause for being jealous
of Empress .Zita's influence.
Their one hope is finding a way to
force themselves into the grace of En-
peror Charles. He is young, handsome
and might be captivated by the forced
charms of his young and innocent
wife's opponents.
The women are of high character
and refinement. but are aware Of their
charms and use them, it is said, to win
favor with the emperor. ~ g..
The empress is only "a, while her
rivals for influence with her husband
are older and more versed in court
life. ,.....

D|VET ACCEPTS
CHALLENGE Of
LEAGUE HEAD
viii Meet "Representative" If He Has
Requirements Of Character And
Respectability.
MINORITY HOUSE LEADER
WANTS FITTING DISCUSSION

Hon. A. G. Divet, minority leader of
the house, has taken cognizanoe Of the
challenge issued by A. G. Townley
last Saturday night to meet some IRE
preventative of the league in debate
on the subject of house bill A.
In a. communication addressed to
the president Of the league today, Re-
preventative Divet says that il the
league has ar'trepresentative" : meeting
the requirements of character and
respectability" he will meet him for
discussion in Ergo.
Not an opportune Time.
Il am at present engaged in the
performance of my official duties and
it would hardly seem an opportune
time when the wolves are gathered at
the door of the fold, for the shepherd
to go wandering into the wilderness
in pursuit of some particular whelp
that may be selected as a lure" writes
the representative, who adds that he
is heartily of the belief that full un-
derstanding of the iniQuitous provi'
sions, of the bill is desired and that
one appropriate method of bringing
about such understanding is the dis
semination of information from the
public platform.
Asks For Information.
If you are seeking to have informa'
ton disseminated in Fargo and are
not seeking petty controversy with
me, personally l am assured" writes
the representative, that there are
many men in that city, not engaged
with any official duties, who will be
glad to lay aside their private affairs
and enter upon some orderly line OF
discussion of the dangers hidden in
this dark cloud of socialism, unlimited
debt and debauchery of the public
school, that at the present hangs over
the horizon. But, obviously, it would
be necessary that you make known to
the interested people of that city (as
you have not made known to me) who
it was sought to inject into their midst
for the occasion.
Wants Fitting Discussion.
"The man would, obviously, have to
be such a one that his participation
would insure that the great questions
would be dealt with dignity Of be.
fitting their importance. He would
have to be such that a self-respecting
citizen would not find himself humili-
ated by discussion with an anarchist,
discredited socialist or l. w. w. work
er,"

blood and mucous membrane and has
brought relief to those who thought
there was no help for their trouble.
Parmint has been used in the treatment
OF Catarrh throughout Europe for
many years. A recent canvass OF the
American druggists shows that it is
now being extensively used in this
country where 1t is producing satisfaca
tory results even in localities where
Catarrh is most prevalent.
To be able to breathe freely, to hear
plainly, smell, taste and arise in the
morning refreshed and strong and with
head and throat free from phlegm are
conditions that you should strive to Sc
cure.
For your own sake give Parmint a
trial. Certainly you cannot enjoy and
get the good out OF life that you are
justly entitled to 50 long as you are at
ficted with Catarrh.
Start with Parmint Now, today. II
may bring you relief ana give you a
wider margin Of health than you
thought 1t possible to obtain.
Parnint is sold and recommended In
this city by all first class druggists
