THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
interview With Italian Premier d
Rudini ON European Politics.

AosVHvtcW WIN 1t0Ilo0 PREMIER al
Rudini ON European Politics.
ROME, April 13.-Premier di Rudini, in
an interview today in regard to the drei-
bund, held that renewal of the triple
alliance was of secondary Importance as
compared with constant agreement with
England. On many occasions, the premier
said. the policy Of che dreibund harmon
lied perfectly with the British idea,f vet
Lord Salisbury, for special reasons, had
never adhered to the dreibund treaty.
Italy's renewal of her close contract with
the alliance depended on the general stu
alton in Europe. which was now changing
every day. 1t was difficult to imagine that
England and Italy would remain passive
while war was being waged by Russia and
France against Germany and Austria, even
if the dreibund did not exist. Rudini de-
clared he was convinced that France, in
spite Of her excessive ornaments, would
never alone wage war of aggression while
the dreibund continued to act as the safe
guard of Europe. In view of the prevail
ing temper in France, 1t was perfectly idle
to discuss the question of the dissolution
of the dreibund.

For ages and ages this disease was con-

His remedy is neither an ointment. pull
nor powder, but pleasant baisam. so pal

No matter how stiff the joints may be,
or severe the pain, or how long standing
the disease, DR.. PlouTs remedy is an ABso-

Hundreds of cases have been cured in
Seattle alone, and thousands have been
cured throughout the Northwest, as are
evidenced by sworn testimonials on file in
the doctors Office.
The price of the remedy Is 81 per bottle.
One bottle will suffice in some cases, while
in others it will require more. There is
but one argument made for this medicine:
