the capital of Austria.
Again the unexpected happened.
sassin-or maybe some sort of pa
triot who was ready to def he
might be instrumental in freeing
Austria from what he deemed un-
worthy rulers.
Their murder plunged Austria and
neighboring Kingdoms into turmoil
Of indignation on one side and tu-
multi of hate on the other side.
The kaiser saw his chance and he
took it--unfortunately for Germany
and for his precious self. This was
the fuse that ignited the blaze and
caused the shock of the World War
The public has been led to sup
pose all this time, that Crown
Prince Rudolph and the baroness had
some sort Of suicide pact-and
that they went to their deaths by
reason OF their unwillingness to live
apart, and the decree had been re-
corded that they could not live as
affinities together.
But the mystery has been explain
ed after years of suspension ana CON
lecture. The man who had, been
picked for the husband of the baron
ess had grown tired of his neglect.
A quarrel followed. AS the new
story goes the Crown Prince was
knocked in the head with brimful
bottle of champagne, and the baron
ess, alarmed by the noise, appeared
at the door, where the jewellers were
assembled and somebody shot her
down on the threshold. An orgy was
at it's height, and it became necessary
to put a face on the recital; so the
suicide-pact was promulgated and
spread abroad throughout the two
great continents.
If the Crown Prince had been mas
ter of himself and half as decent as
his disappointed parents, he would
be now most probably the reigning
emperor of Austria, and no world
war, to intervene, which convulsed
two hemispheres, and from the ef-

1t was. Nora had gone about her
work as usual. But in the ten days
she had two narrow escapes from

she almost stepped down an elevator

and cold when stenographer in
Morals office told her by telephone.
"a man just barely caught her, but
she did not seem a bit frightened,
really" the girl said.
The second accident" had occurred
when Nora slipped and fell in front
of a huge motor truck. She had
been slightly bruised and the driver
insisted on accompanying her home.
BY chance, Rosalie met them. Per-
had happened, of which she never
heard. She had searched with care
full stealth all Morals effects: moth
ing suggestive of danger was to be
found.
1t was evident that with the cum
ming of a sick mind, Nora was plan
ming to avoid-doubtless for Rosa
ment which would not permit at least
a possibility of doubt as to it's being
voluntary.
Nora did not talk Of Roger or Of
anything connected with their past.
And she avoided, with a success that
showed her intention to be unchange-
able, any meeting-which Resale
tried hard to arrange-with Dr. Find
lay. 1t was indeed upon Newton
Findlay that Rosalie relied for ad-
vice during this anxious period. He
had never reproached her. There
was nothing, in his knowledge, to
merit real reproach. He believed she
had acted in good faith.
But Rosalie was now too troubled
to make any effort to retain even
Newton Findlay's good opinion.

THE MYSTERY EXPLAINED

1t was an assassination of two
tiled personages closely related to
the emperor of Austria, (the oldest
Of the ruling class in all Europe).
which precipitated the great world
war. If the heir of Emperor Franz
Joseph (the veteran of all the kings
and emperors here mentioned), had
lived, the crown of Austria would
dolph. The aged emperor set great
store by his only son, expected great
thing of his heir and descendant.
And Rudolph was handsome, rich
and popular with Austrians.
The old emperor, like old Queen
Vic and the queen Of Denmark, who
all lived and reigned about the same
time, had it in his mind to combine
matrimonial alliances that would
stabilize their own thrones and fur
nish mates from other ruling king
doms Of Europe.
There was a Belgian princess who
was picked by these royal match
makers to be the future empress Of
Austria. She and Rudolph were mar
ried in due time and order. and both
went the pace" as they waited for
the aged Emperor Franz Joseph to
vaults of his fathers.
The young couple did not agree.
They had noisy time Of 1t. She
was accused of being insanely jeal-
Gus OF anOtner woman, ana all the
royal courts of Europe were &C
quainted with their martial difficult
ties. And she had good reason to
be disagreeable, for the Crown Prince
Rudolph was infatuated with a GER
tain baroness, and was not careful
to be secret in his pursuit of her and
she was no better.
1t now appears that the baroness
was betrothed to another person, and
GUM.
Crown Princess Stephanie of Bel.
her betrothed was as jealous as the
Matters approached a crisis. And
the crisis eventuated, in finding the
crown prince dead-in a hunt lg
lodge, along with the dead body of
the Baroness. The dead BODY OF
the heir to the Austrian throne was
carried to Vienna and buried. Franz
Joseph and his magnificent wife
were plunged into depths of sorrow
because there was no other son or
daughter in their family. Franz Jo-
seph's line had played out. The
mother never recovered from the
agony of that tragedy. She was
restless.
In one of her visits to a small
town she was set upon by an Ital-
ian desperate and stabbed to death.
The old emperor had to pick out a
successor, and Rudolph had no child.

NNj lake care lest you be lat
w and forty
Instead of slim and sixty!
That is the moral of a story which
will interest at least Is per cent of
the men and women in New York
City-the regiment of the rotund, the
companies of the corpulent. For them
the story has been written, the
story which it's author, Antoinette
Donnelly, has called "How to Re-
duce: New Waistlines for Old" and
which is published today by D. APP
pleton & Co. The fatties may as we'll
take Miss Donnelly's word for it; in
a recent competition with DR.. ]. D.
Robertson, Chicago's health commits
sioner, she reduced twenty-five male
victims of obesity in less time than
her opponent could perform the same
service for twenty-five feminine
heavyweights.
Thirty is the dangerous age" she
begins her good advice to avoirdu-
pois. 1T is the turning point in
many slender career. 1t is the age
when waists generally begin to
spread and thicken. 1t is the age
to decide your figure shall have no
more birthdays. 1t is the age to
thirty years or for thirty years more.
cit is the age when the wise young
man provides against a possible OBJ
structed view of his feet and a COM
Elementary slowing up Of his mental
processes and the useless waste of
years accommodating and Kidding one
self Of superfluous flesh.
at is the age when the woman in
business and the professional woman
must decide whether she is willing
to be superseded by a younger per-
son or remain as mentally and physi-
cally active as that younger woman.
ut is the age for the woman at
home to make a critical appraisal of
herself-for the very nature of her
susceptible to the wiles of Mr.. Adj
pose-and to decide whether she shall
get fat on her job in mind and body
or keep up with her progressive mate
for years and years to come.
For. after all is said and writ,
man is as old as his figure! And
woman more so!
"Since fat contributes in large per-
centage to the old age bugaboo, how
then shall we prevent this wholesale
sacrifice to old age and rotundity?
BY watching the diet and by suf-
ficient daily exercise to keep the
weight at approximately the average
weight for th'"ty, the age of full
maturity"
Each person, as Miss Donnelly
points out, has a normal weight pro-
portioned to his or her height. And
the scales won't lie, although high
priced corset may camouflage. So
her advice is to get on the scales
often and get on a diet If you are

Soap Beneficial to
Skin. Saws Specialist

well-known New York skin
specialist says that it is an errone-
Gus idea that soap will hurt the
complexion. According to him,
women who wash their faces with
soap have clearer compilations and
do not suffer from enlarged pores.
His advice is to choose a soap free
of alkii, either scented or un-
scented and wash the face thorough
ly at night with the soap, rinsing
with cold water. In the morningf it
is sufficient, says this skin specialist,
to wash with warm water and rinse
with cold.
