Grand Nephew of Aged Ruler Will
Succeed. Reuter Despatch From
Vienna by Way of Amsterdam An
nounces Monarch's Death.
London. Emperor Francis Joseph
is dead at Schoenbrunn Castle, accord
ing to a Reuter dispatch from Vienna,
by way of Amsterdam.
The first intimation received here
that Emperor Francis Joseph's health
-was again the subject of solicitatTs
-was contained in a dispatch dated No
vember 12, emanating from a Vienna
news agency which reported that the
Emperor had been suffering for some
days from a slight catarrhal affection.
Archduke Charles Francis, grand
nephew of Emperor Francis Joseph,
became heir to th throne of Austria
Hungary by the assassination of Arch
duke Francis Fredinand prior to the
outbreak of the war. He has been in
command of the Austrian armies on
various fronts during the past two
years.
Archduke Charles Francis was born
on Aueust 17. 1887. His wife was
Princess Zita of the Bourbon House
of Parma. His father was Archduke
Otto, who was the younger brother of
Francis Ferdinand.
On Throne 68 Years.
The death of Francis Jospeh is a
remarkable climax to the long list of
tragedies in the Hapsburg family a
list unparalleled in any other reigning
houses in Europe. He dies in the midst
of the world's greatest war, which he
himself largely brought about by his
determination to avenge the act of
assassination of his heir, the Archduke
Francis Ferdinand, as the result of an
alleged Serbian conspiracy, while on a
state visit to Bosnio on June 28, 1914.
Francis Joseph was 86 years old
at the time of his death. He was born
August 18, 1830. He was only 19 years
of age when he ascended the throne
of Austria, upon the abdication of his
uncle, Ferdinand I., December 2, 1848,
making his active reign extend over a
period of 68 years, all but the first 20
of which he was also Apostolic King
of Hungary. It is doubtful that if in
all history there has been an active,
authenticated relm that was longer.
Tradition says a Pharaoh ruled for 99
years and there is the more creditable
instance of Rameses II. Seostris of
the Greeks, whose reign is reputed to
have covered 67 years. But in re
corded history there certainly has
been no reign of equal duration to
that of Francis Joseph. Louis XIV,
of France, was nominally King for 72
years. A close rival, and the only one
of modern times was Queen Victoria
who reigned for 64 years.
TONOLINE IS BEAUTY AID,
ANNOUNCES SPECIALIST
Mildred Louise Talk of Interest to Wo
men As health is a firstt aid to beauty this
this story, told by Mildfed Louise
beauty specialist, of Boston, Mass., is
of unusual interest.
'"I can recommend no better health
giver than tonoline," said Mildred Lou
ise.
"I was for many months a victim of
stomach trouble and nervousness. I had
suered terribly from pains that follow
ed eating. Headaches also would add
to my worries. Poor digestion finally
brought on nervousness.
"Relief came, however, when I took
the advice of several women who said,
' ' Take tonoline. '
"Not long after I started the tono
line treatment, my patrons began to re
mind me of the improvement in iny
endition. And because health is the
quickest way to beauty, the improve
ment was particularly noticeable in my
face.
"What tonoline did for me IdAeMn
"What tonoline really did for me I
cannot say. I am so grateful that I am
very willing to recommend tonoline
publiclicly. ' '
- Tonoline is a purely vegetablepre
paration which goes to the seat of com
mon maladies stomach and. kidney
trouble, catarrhal affections of the mu
cous mebranes, liver ailments and im
purities of the blood and quickly re
stores proper action. Tonoline is being
explained daily to many people at your
druggist.
Notice: As tonoline is a wonderful
flesh builder it should not be taken by J
any one not wishing to increase !.is
weight ten pounds or more. Although
many reports are received from those
who have been benefitted by tonoline
in severe cases of stomach trouble and
nervous dyspepsia, chronic constipation
etc.

application of Sloan's Liniment and
the little fellow's bravely kept back
tears give way to smiles. His hurt is
relieved.
In every home where there are chil

Deutsehland Makes Another Start for
Bremen Boldly Sailing Down Harbor
of New London in Broad Daylight
Without Convoy.
New London, Conn. The German
merchant submarine Deutsehland,
with a $2,000,000 cargo and official
mall for Emperor William aboard,
made another start for Bremen, her
dash last Friday being frustrated when
she sank a convoying tug, necessitat
ing a return to port or minor repairs.
Her skipper, Paul Koenig, instead
of stealing out to sea under the cover
of darkness, boldly sailed down the
harbor in broad daylight and without
convoy. Local mariners were surpris
ed when he again elected to send his
craft through the dangerous waters of
the race, where the collision occurred
in which five of the tug's crew were
drowned.
The tug Alert, of the Tascott Wreck
ing Company, sub-agents of th3 East
ern Forwarding Company, remained a
half mile astern. Passing the Race
safelv. the Deutsehland turned her
nose to the east and headed for Nan
tucket shoals.
