American Ambassador to Vienna
Ignorant Of Latest Move.

Washington. Hungary, un,
der the pressure of Germany, has sew
cred diplomatic relations with the
United Etates.
Baron Erick Zwiedinek, charge
d'affaires of the Austro-Hungarian en-
bassy here, called at the state depart
ment and asked for passports for
himself and the embassy staff.
Almost at the same time a dispatch
was received from American Minister
Stovall at Berne saying the dual
monarchy had broken off diplomatic
relations with the United States in
Vienna. 1t is presumed this was done
by handing passports to American
Charge Grew. American Ambassador
Penfield, who had left Vienna on Sat
urday, probably did not know OF the
governments action.
By Encouragement Spain will take
ove the diplomatic and consular in
terests of the United States in Aus
tria-Hungary. All Austrian consular
agents will depart from the United
States with the diplomatic mission, as
was the case with Germany.
Vienna has asked Sweden to talk
over her interests in the Unitel
States.

WORK AND WORRY

How does worry affect a person?
In the first place, each moment spent
In worrying weakens the body for its
daily fight. 1t adds age; 1t causes
deep burrows to appear on the brow
that should be smooth as marble; 1t
Injuries the digestion, makes life a
cruel burden, robbing 1t Of all pleas
ure and peace.
On the other hand, what is the ee-
feet of work? Work, unless carried
to an unreasonable excess. has been
the salvation of many poor soul,
and has proved itself to be not only
a mental but a physical blessing.
Work gives incentive, and thus
life and health to the organs of the
body 1t strengthens our will; teach
es us patience, perseverance and thf
courage tn endure The homely du
ties which are performed by thf
house another each day-the sweep
ling, cooking, washing, sewing-ar'
i all wholesome duties which lead t
health and strength, not TO sickness
and weakness.
But if women allow their dali
tasks to fret and worry then, thcl
they lose all benefits they Nigh
Iotherwise have derived from them
II is not the actual work which
VI ears out nerves and temper an
ruins dispositions. 1t is the spirit II
which the work is done that allow
worry to creep in.
Worry brings gray hair, ugi
frowns and bad temper, while eheer
full work carries sunshine and en-
ioyment. When yoked with worl
worry makes a sorry team and poe
woman who rides behind such pal
is greatly to be pitied.-Phiiade
